Hatchet Ch 15

The day my cancer is diagnosed, my husband slaps me across the face. "You're vicious! You're even pretending to have cancer just to look more pitiful than your sister!" My son shouts, "Mom is horrible! I hate Mom!" I don't cry or make a scene. I quietly put the test results away and choose a grave for myself. In 15 days, I'll leave this city to die somewhere else in peace. I won't even give them the chance to regret it.

"Ms. Stout, please read the requirements carefully. Once you submit your personal profile and sign up, all of your information will be sealed. You must then enter the research institute within 15 working days. Until the research results are made public, you will not be allowed to leave." The response from the National Academy of Sciences Research Institute came quickly, accompanied by a form. Shermaine Stout stared at the screen, but the mouse in her hand suddenly felt as heavy as lead. The door to her room suddenly swung open, and Shermaine blinked, quickly closing the laptop without a trace of emotion.

In my previous life, my husband suffered a sudden brain hemorrhage and died instantly in his office. When I arrived at the hospital, all that awaited me was his lifeless body. Overwhelmed with grief, I coughed up blood and was bedridden ever since. On my deathbed, I happened to see a news report—my husband had won a $15 million lottery. Standing beside him at the prize ceremony was none other than my best friend. The shock killed me on the spot. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my husband had just died.

Depois de ser empurrada escada abaixo pela queridinha do meu marido, morri de parto no canto da escada do hospital particular da família Moreira. Antes de morrer, meu filho de seis anos chorou, implorando para que seu pai me salvasse. Na primeira vez, Davi Moreira apenas riu com desprezo: — Sua mãe ficou esperta, hein? Usando a criança para bancar a coitadinha e me enganar. E, dito isso, afastou a mão do menino sem nenhuma piedade e foi embora. Na segunda vez, meu filho disse que eu não parava de sangrar. Davi respondeu com impaciência no rosto: — Que exagero... Foi só um aborto espontâneo. Nada demais. Ela que gosta de drama! Depois de expulsar o menino, ele ainda ordenou aos médicos que nnguém deve cuidar de mim. — A culpa é minha por tê-la mimado demais. Sem sofrer, ela nunca vai aprender. Na última vez, meu filho se ajoelhou diante da amante dele, batendo a cabeça no chão, suplicando por mim. Davi explodiu de raiva e mandou os seguranças jogarem o menino, todo machucado, para fora do quarto, enquanto todos riam dele. — Se ousar incomodar a recuperação da Marina mais uma vez, mando sua mãe embora da família Moreira e você nunca mais vai vê-la! Meu filho rastejou até mim, deixando um rastro de sangue no chão. Dessa vez, você conseguiu. Nossos corpos estão frios. Nunca mais nos verá nesta vida.

« Mon chéri ! » lâchai-je très fort. Toutes les têtes se tournèrent dans ma direction, et mes yeux s’écarquillèrent comme ceux d’un cerf pris dans les phares. La honte m’engloutit, et j’eus envie de disparaître dans la nature. Daphne se précipita vers moi. Elle m’attrapa le bras et se pencha vers mon oreille. « Pourquoi l’as-tu appelé ton chéri ? » chuchota-t-elle. « Je… je… je le connais, » répondis-je à voix haute. « Tu connais le Roi ? » demanda l’une des filles dans la foule. Je tournai la tête vers le bel inconnu. Je l’observai de plus près et commençai à remarquer des détails que j’avais négligés auparavant. La chaise sur laquelle il était assis — elle semblait petite, mais elle était en or. Ses vêtements somptueux et sa posture — il avait une allure majestueuse. « Il… il est le Roi ? » balbutiai-je à voix basse. « Oui, c’est le Roi, » répondit Daphne. Je tirai Daphne un peu plus près de moi. « Tu veux dire que c’est le Roi des Bêtes ? » « Oui, » répondit-elle. Je me rappelai alors comment l’homme en uniforme s’était adressé à lui plus tôt — « Votre Majesté ». Je me rappelai aussi ses paroles dans la Forêt de la Sorcellerie — les apparences sont trompeuses. C’est fini. Mes jambes devinrent soudainement molles, et je me sentis tomber au sol, aussitôt engloutie par l’abîme des ténèbres.
