All Chapters of The Wrong Person: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Eden Hawthorn was never the type to oppose anything Jaime Barthes said or wanted. If he forbade her to speak to men, she would go to great lengths to have her assistant collect reports from male employees rather than interact with them herself. She would never cross any boundaries Jaime set.When Jaime developed a chronic heart condition, she searched every part of the country as well as overseas for a suitable heart transplant candidate for him.However, when she finally found a candidate who fit the criteria, she instead chose to have the heart transplanted to another man named Jericho Brown.“Jaime, Jericho's condition suddenly worsened. He can’t afford to wait any longer, so… I decided to let him have the heart transplant instead.”Everyone in Hartow City expected Jaime to erupt with rage.After all, someone like Jaime, who was known for his utterly possessive treatment of Eden, would not possibly tolerate her giving away the heart that was supposed to save his life to another

Ever since their conversation that morning, Eden was no longer subtle about spending time with Jericho at the hospital.News of the arrangement spread like wildfire. People began to speculate that Jaime was finally going to snap this time because surely he would not tolerate it.On the contrary, Jaime seemed oblivious to what was happening. His daily routine remained unchanged.He read and tended to his flowers. Occasionally, he went to the yard to bask under the sun. His demeanor was exceedingly calm, and there were no signs of starting a fuss anytime soon.During this period, he often caught himself recalling memories of Eden since his arrival in this world, the memories they shared from the first time he saw her up until the day she met Jericho.Unfortunately, it was proven that there was nothing he could do to stop fate.In a way, he thought that this was likely the best outcome.In the original story, things did not end well for the supporting male lead who was cast solely

Upon hearing the commotion, Eden showed up out of nowhere and went up to Jaime to explain, “Jaime, Jericho has surgery in two days and needs a quiet place to rest. It’s a little too noisy in the hospital, and he’s afraid of being alone. He’s terrified that you’re still upset with him and you’d be sending someone to attack him again.“I figured I’d bring him home so he could rest while I look after him. He’ll leave after the surgery."The terrified Jericho quickly got up from the couch and turned pale. He went up to Jaime and expressed in a frail voice, “Mr. Barthes, I’m sorry for the disturbance. I’ll only be here for two days and will get out of your hair immediately after the surgery.”Jaime was too exhausted to bicker with them anymore. All he did was dismiss him with a faint look, “Sure, stay if you want.”It was only two days, anyway. He decided that being upset about something like this was simply not worth the effort anymore.Eden was somewhat taken aback by Jaime’s respons

Eden called out twice again, but all she got was radio silence. There was not so much as the sound of someone breathing.A strange panic suddenly crept up her spine. When she tried to open the door, a bodyguard clad in black ran up to her with an urgent update. “Ms. Hawthorn, we received a call from the hospital. Mr. Brown is experiencing an abnormal reaction after surgery, and his heart rate is fluctuating dramatically. The doctor is asking for you to head over right now.”The bodyguard sounded frantic.Eden paused briefly. Her brows were locked in a frown.She was grappling between Jaime, who was unresponsive, and Jericho, who had just undergone surgery and was in critical condition.Upon weighing the two, she decided on the latter.Her knuckles had turned white from how hard she had been gripping the knob. Then, she turned to the same guard and instructed in a lowered voice, “Keep an eye on him and monitor his condition. Make sure to bring him water and food regularly. Contact

Jaime's funeral was held three days later.It was drizzling. A portrait of him lay on the tombstone, where he was smiling radiantly, sharply contrasting with the solemnity of the funeral.Eden, bailed out by her lawyer, had attended, dressed up in black too. Her hair was a disheveled mess, and there was a hollow look in her eyes as she staggered her way to the funeral.The rain drenched her hair and clothes, but it did not seem to bother her. All she did was walk toward Jaime's tombstone as if possessed.To her dismay, the bodyguards appointed by Marcus and Elisa stopped her from going any further.She pleaded with them desperately in a scratchy voice, “Please, let me in! I want to see Jaime one last time!”When Elisa glared at her, there was a deep, engulfing look of hatred in her eyes. “Eden, how dare you show up here? You were the one who had Jaime beaten and tortured to death. His body was practically rotting by the time you found him!“Thanks to you, his organs could not be
