Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Husband Chose His First Love While His Family Died: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Ryan assumed I’d finally come to my senses and left without another second’s hesitation.I immediately called the hospital director to ask how much blood they had available and told him about the pileup.He promised to coordinate with the emergency department right away and told me to contact other hospitals in case they needed additional supplies.My family had made its fortune in the pharmaceutical industry, so I had plenty of connections in healthcare.But after getting married, I’d handed control of the business to Ryan.That was why, in my previous life, I’d been forced to beg him to save his own family.If the hospital ran short on blood supplies, I could arrange emergency donors to help replenish the supply.So I called the company’s HR manager and told him to notify the employees to come in and remain on standby to donate blood.“Anyone who volunteers to donate will receive a twenty-percent increase in their year-end bonus.”“Yes, Mrs. Larson.”But half an hour later,

In a daze, I followed the doctor into the ICU.My mother-in-law could barely open her eyes, but she was still searching for me.“My sweet girl, this family has wronged you. Divorce Ryan and make sure he walks away with nothing.”She had clearly noticed that I was the only one who had come.“Mom, you’re going to be okay. Please don’t scare me.”She gave me a weak smile.“I used up all my luck the day you came into my life. Go see Sophie.”Sophie couldn’t speak, but her eyes remained fixed on me.I couldn’t even hold her hand.It was gone.I dropped to my knees beside her bed, sobbing so hard I could barely breathe.Sophie glanced toward something beside her pillow.I opened the box and collapsed onto the floor.Inside was the delicate star bracelet.If her brother wouldn’t give it to me, she would.She couldn’t make a sound, but I still understood what she was trying to say.“Lily, I love you.”I had no idea how long I remained kneeling beside her bed.When I finally t

Serena looked at me with open contempt, as though I were garbage.I finally managed to wrench myself free from Ryan’s grip.Air rushed painfully into my lungs, and my coughing echoed through the second floor.Suddenly, a violent cramp tore through my abdomen.Something warm trickled down my thighs.Clutching my stomach, I turned toward my daughter’s room.“Come to the funeral or don’t. It’s your choice.”I’d barely taken two steps when Serena jumped off the bed and blocked my way.“Wait!“Why does this agreement say Ryan has to walk away with nothing?”My stomach was already in agony. When she abruptly yanked my arm, the pain became so intense that I collapsed onto the floor.Cold sweat drenched my entire body.“Let go.”My voice was weak.I said it twice, but she ignored me.Serena clung tightly to my wrist.“Explain what this means, or I’ll tear it up!”Ryan finally picked up the agreement and read the terms carefully.“Both families’ companies, shares, properties,

“How did you know there was something wrong with the brake lines?”Serena collapsed onto the floor.During the two days I spent recovering in the hospital, my phone never stopped ringing.My lawyer kept me updated on the investigation.At first, Serena refused to say a word. She hired the best attorney she could find and left everything to him.Her plan had seemed foolproof.She had never personally gone near the car, so she believed she could easily clear her name.And she’d only met the man who tampered with it once at a bar.That alone was hardly direct evidence.What she hadn’t expected was for the man, who claimed he’d already fled the country, to be arrested at the border.He’d seen the news and learned how many people had died because of him.The guilt and fear broke him.The moment he sat down in the interrogation room, he confessed to everything.“She gave me a million dollars that night and told me to cut the brake lines. She said the car belonged to a woman name

“Lily, what did you mean by that?“How do you know what happened before? Did you come back too?”I ignored his shouting and walked out of the police station.I’d said it on purpose.From the first day I came back, Ryan’s attitude toward our daughter had made me suspicious.The way he looked at her was especially telling.Before, he’d merely been indifferent. This time, he looked as though he wanted to kill her on the spot.And Ryan had always been close to Sophie. If he’d truly known his family had been in a serious accident, he never would’ve fired Derek and left me with no way to help them.There was only one explanation.Serena had either told him I was the one in the car or claimed it was only a minor accident.After blaming me for Serena’s death in our previous life, Ryan had hated me enough to believe anything she said.But once he realized Serena hadn’t just tried to kill me, but had also knowingly sacrificed his family, he finally snapped.Only Aunt Helen and I atte
