Report
My husband's childhood sweetheart is a fake heiress. She and I are abducted at the same time. But when my husband, a doctor, arrives at the scene of the abduction with a medical team, he chooses to save her first. My legs have been broken, and I struggle to stay afloat in the ocean. I'm on the brink of death, and I beg him to save me and the child in my belly. He merely looks at me. Before leaving, he almost generously helps me call 911. Then, he says, "It's disgusting that you're lying about being pregnant just to save yourself. I've repaid you for saving my life—come to the hospital later today to sign the divorce papers." After listening to his words, I remove the hearing aid from my right ear with a trembling hand.

Drowning in Misguided Love Chapter 12
Cillian clenched his fists in anger and pointed at Alina. "Even after knowing you were an outsider, our family never mistreated you. You chose to marry that man! "We warned you about him before the engagement. But you said you couldn't accept marrying below your station, that you couldn't end up with someone beneath Sven!" In my life, the only person who was truly good to me was Cillian. He had cared about me while I was alive, and he was the only one grieving for me after my death. Nonetheless, Alina remained defiant and showed no remorse. The police promptly took her away. Then, my body was cremated. Alina was sentenced to 20 years in prison for kidnapping me. However, given the public outcry and the fact that she had hired someone to kill me, her crime was deemed heinous enough that she was eventually sentenced to death. And yet, for some reason, I still couldn't move on and reincarnate. I was stuck lingering around Sven. I watched as he sank into deeper despair,

Everyone looked dumbfounded as to why the police had shown up at my funeral. Only Alina seemed alarmed. "Who is Alina Leclair?" the officer asked sternly. "Officer, what's going on?" Mom asked anxiously the moment she heard Alina's name. Mom had raised Alina and always treated her better than me, her real daughter. "After thorough investigation, it has been confirmed that Alina Leclair was the one who orchestrated Tracy Leclair's kidnapping. We need to take her in." Mom collapsed onto the floor upon hearing the news. Meanwhile, Sven stared blankly at the officers and shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, that's impossible. How could it be Alina? I handed over the ransom myself. I saved her myself…" His voice trailed off, replaced by a look of overwhelming regret and pain. At that moment, he seemed to realize something and glared at Alina vehemently. As the police moved to arrest Alina, Mom struggled to her feet and tried to block them. The officers didn't mince words.

Panic flashed across Alina's face as she hurried to defend herself. "Sven, you know me better than anyone. How could I possibly hurt myself just to frame Tracy? Besides, it was Tracy who asked me to meet her that day, which is why I—" "You never liked me," Sven interrupted, his voice sharp with anger. "You kept me dangling just to feed your ego, and you enjoyed having multiple admirers. Isn't that right?" Alina froze, and her face paled. Her lips trembled, but no words came out. Then, she began crying, putting on that fragile, pitiful look she always wore so well. However, Sven was unmoved. He rubbed his temples in frustration and shoved Alina out the door. No matter how much she cried outside, he remained indifferent. And yet, I couldn't feel touched by his cruelty toward Alina. His bitterness stemmed only from realizing he had been played. If Alina were to sincerely apologize, Sven would forgive her in a heartbeat. He'd never had any real boundaries when it comes to h
Drowning in Misguided Love Chapter 9
There were no dramatic stories about how I fell for Sven. I liked him simply because he was handsome and had good grades. Teenage girls often fall for boys better than them, and I was no exception. In the dim light, my teenage self had written, "I like Sven. Not only is he good-looking and smart, but he's also kind. I saw him donate to underprivileged kids. But I come from an average family, while he's from a wealthy one. There's no way we could ever be together." Later, after I had reunited with the Leclair family, my diary entries said, "I replaced Alina in the arranged marriage with Sven. I feel guilty about it. Sven doesn't seem to like me. I told my parents I didn't want to go through with it, but Dad slapped me. It hurt." "I saw Alina confessing her feelings to some gang leader. She said she didn't like Sven. In a way, I feel sorry for him. Maybe I should marry him after all." "Alina fell down the stairs herself, but Sven thinks I pushed her. Now he hates me even more."

Time passed until his eyes landed on a piece of paper I had left on the coffee table. Sven took the paper, glanced at it, and burst out laughing. His shoulders shook, and tears streamed from the corners of his eyes. It was my prenatal check-up report. Sven and I did have some sweet moments after we got married. Once, he had gone to a disaster site to help with earthquake relief efforts. While rescuing someone, he fell from a high place. In the end, he fractured his leg and had to stay in bed for three months. During those three months, I had taken care of him meticulously. He was a picky eater and disliked vegetables, so I had made him special meals to ensure he got the right nutrition. Eventually, he was spoiled by my cooking. Last year on my birthday, he had set off fireworks for me. As the fireworks burst across the night sky, they lit up the best time in our relationship. I had been captivated by Sven's chiseled features and boldly kissed him. My body had shuddere

Sven shook his head over and over, murmuring, "Impossible. This is impossible. She was fine when I left. She could still talk. How could she be dead?" Yes, I was still begging you for help before I died. Why didn't you save me? When Alina got a few minor scrapes, you were frantic and called the ambulance to make sure she was saved first. Meanwhile, I lay by the sea as my life slipped away in helplessness and despair. "The doctor said if she had been brought in just ten minutes earlier, she might have been saved. But I heard the ambulance that arrived first rescued Alina. You're partly to blame for Tracy's death." Cillian's words were sharp. After saying that, he turned to leave. Sven stared blankly at my pale face. His hand reached out shakily, but he didn't dare to touch me. His entire body shook, and there was something in his expression that resembled sorrow. Was he truly grieving? Too bad, I was already dead. I felt pity for myself too. Dead at only 26 because of my

Eventually, we walked down the aisle together and got married. But now, my soul was weak, my entire being consumed by pain. I regretted saving him. If I hadn't intervened that day, maybe Sven and I would never have married. And I wouldn't have been killed by Alina's cruel schemes. Suddenly, the door to the ward flew open with a deafening crash. My soul jolted in shock. Before I could see who it was, a shadow zipped past me. Then, I watched as someone grabbed Sven by the collar and punched him hard in the face. Sven fell to the floor, his cheek immediately swelling red. Looking up, he saw it was Cillian. His expression turned dark with fury. "Cillian, what the hell?" Sven spat and stood to throw a punch back at Cillian. Cillian caught Sven's arm mid-swing and delivered several brutal punches to his stomach. "Sven, you monster. Tracy is dead, and you're here with someone else. I'm going to beat you to death!" Sven was equally enraged and started fighting back. "Cill

I suppose it was what I deserved for being the naive girl who fell in love with someone who never cared. I hid in the shadows, and my heart ached so much I could barely breathe. Unable to stand the suffocating pain any longer, I drifted toward the morgue. There, I saw a man kneeling beside my lifeless body and sobbing uncontrollably. I moved closer and realized it was my brother, Cillian Leclair. The heart Sven had broken abruptly felt a touch of warmth. Since reuniting with my family, Cillian had been the only person who had treated me with genuine kindness and seen me as family. He couldn't believe I was gone and kept stroking my cold face. While fighting back his tears, he dialed Sven's number. It rang for a long time before Sven finally answered. Cillian's voice was thick with rage. "Sven, you bastard! Your wife is dead! My sister sacrificed so much for you. Now she's gone, and you couldn't even be bothered to check on her." Annoyed by the outburst, Sven retorte

"Since she's a relative of your friend, maybe you could get in touch with the family. We couldn't find her phone, and the police have already been informed. "The condition of her body is devastating. Your friend might need to prepare themselves emotionally…" "Have you forgotten what your job is?" Sven interrupted sharply. "It's only a minor injury, something any regular doctor could handle. And yet here you are, indulging in some ridiculous drama. "That woman is as strong as an ox. There's no way a little injury would kill her." A lump formed in my throat, and before I could stop them, tears began to fall. Sven had used to joke about how tough I was, saying I was healthier than most because I never needed medicine in all the years we'd been married. But little did he know, I wasn't that strong. I had always been prone to colds and fevers. Once, when I was away on a business trip, my throat had hurt so much I could barely speak. I had called Sven for some comfort, but al

Chapter 1
I never imagined that someone like me, who always cared about how I looked, would die in such a wretched, hideous way. After the kidnappers brutally tortured me, they tossed me by the seaside, letting the freezing waves wash over my body again and again. Blood gushed from my wounds, staining the water around me. Sven Guerrero was completely consumed with Alina Leclair. He didn't spare a single thought about me. By the time I was brought to the hospital, all the blood had drained from my body, and my legs were shattered like those of a broken doll. The doctors and nurses looked at me as if they'd never seen such a tragic patient. Faced with my ravaged body, they didn't even know where to begin. One nurse quietly suggested, "Should we call Dr. Guerrero? He's a brilliant surgeon. Maybe the patient can still be saved." Another nurse immediately countered, "Dr. Guerrero is busy saving his childhood sweetheart. How could he leave the woman he loves to help a stranger?" But I ...
