I'm dying, and so is Sean Quinton. He still has hope, though. I don't. Why? Because once I die, my body will become the first to have passed due to a special infection. It'll be dissected and researched to help cure Sean. So, his daily task becomes urging me to die. Unfortunately for him, I'm unwilling to save him another time, so I die not because of the infection but because of carbon monoxide poisoning. It's enough to destroy the symptoms my body shows and ruin their plans to research my corpse.

Ruined Salvation: When Hope Becomes a Curse Chapter 7
Sunny had used her brother, who'd been in heavy debt from gambling, to achieve this. She'd told him to spend some time in that uncharted area so that he could participate in scientific research and earn some money from it.Her brother had had no idea the scientific research would be conducted on his dead body. He'd waited for Sunny to save him but had instead died on his way to Sean's private hospital.Sunny had killed two birds with one stone—she'd earned five million dollars at the cost of her brother's life and won Sean's trust. She'd even almost become his wife.That wasn't all, though. It turned out she'd orchestrated our accident at sea, too. Heck, it wasn't even an accident. She'd bribed the seaman to veer off course at a specific point and cause the ship to sink. She'd also removed the other oxygen tanks from the ship because she'd been sure that I would save Sean.I couldn't help finding the whole thing ironic. Even Sunny had believed in my love for Sean, yet he hadn't.

I'd stubbornly refused to get a divorce—I'd continued to stick to the promise Sean and I had made to each other before marriage.I'd only changed my mind after he'd dragged me onto that ship and mistakenly believed Sunny had been his savior. He'd even gone so far as to force me to sign a body donation consent form so that he could be saved.Now, he crouched by the bed and cried like a child. "You promised me, Ellie. If only you'd waited just a while longer… I'm back now…"Well, I wasn't willing to wait anymore. In fact, I regretted making that promise.Police sirens came from outside the house, and Sean was escorted out of the room. One of them said, "Ms. Elisa Court passed away due to carbon monoxide poisoning from a gas leak."Sean stared at them, crying one moment and laughing the next. "It's all my fault! My fault! She asked me to fix the leak. Why wasn't I around to do it?"The police tried to calm him down. "You don't have to worry about being charged with indirect murder i

Sunny looked a little awkward. She leaned close to Sean and kissed him. "Of course I'm happy. You're going to be all better soon."He looked into her eyes but seemed to see past her, focusing on the ward next door. It seemed like he was wondering why there hadn't been any news on me yet.When the doctor asked Sunny to pick up the new prescription medicine they'd developed, Sean stopped her and said, "Get two doses."She was taken aback, as was he. After a beat, he frowned and said, "Never mind. Just get the medicine."The ward next door remained empty. No one else had taken the room yet. Sean approached the bedside table and picked up a small lion sculpture. There were cracks on it; it had been glued back after it had been broken. It looked ugly.Suddenly, he coughed violently, and the lion slipped out of his hand. He subconsciously threw himself onto the floor to catch it before it could hit the ground. As he did so, he ended up knocking his head on the foot of the bed, and blood

The nurse started laughing when she saw Sean. "Your ex-wife is dead! You cursed her to death! Are you happy now?"That took Sean aback. Then, he sneered. "Are you my employee or Elisa's? How much could she have given you to make you lie for her?" His tone became icy. "Tell Elisa to reply to me, or I'll fire you."The nurse ripped her cap off and flung it onto the floor. "I quit! Your ex-wife can't answer your calls anymore. I hope you regret it soon!"My eyes reddened at the sight. She was being silly. What was the point of giving up a well-paying job for a stranger? Sean's private hospital paid nurses much more than other hospitals paid doctors.I waited to see how things would play out, but it seemed like Sean still didn't believe the nurse. He pulled up our WhatsApp conversation to send me a voice message again. This time, his tone was impatient."You're still acting like this despite trying and failing before the divorce. Can't you show some improvement? You just want to trick

Sunny puffed out her cheeks, looking aggrieved. Sean thought about what had happened in the past and relaxed. "Don't let her get to you. She's just stupid."When he'd first started fooling around with Sunny, I'd decided to copy the female leads in soap operas for some inexplicable reason."I don't feel so good, Sean. Can you come home tonight?""Could you ask someone to fix the gas at home, Sean? I'm scared something will happen.""I have a fever and can't breathe, Sean. Can you come home and take me to the hospital?"I'd thought of three excuses in one night. I'd called him thrice, but none of them had made him come home.The following day, he'd returned with Sunny by his side and placed the divorce papers before me. Sunny had stood behind him and casually undone the top two buttons of her shirt, revealing the hickeys all over her neck.That was the moment it had hit me—Sean truly didn't love me anymore.…Sean's condition rapidly deteriorated. Despite using the best medical

Sean's voice rang out from the side. "Fine, fine. Spit out whatever you have to say. I'll listen since you're donating your body to develop a cure for me."I gasped for breath and forced out, "I regret my choice, Sean. I'm not going to wait for you anymore. We can die together."People always said that a person's hearing was the last sense they lost when they died. I now knew that it was true—that was why I could still hear Sean insulting me and his assistant mocking me."What's the point of sounding so tough when you're already dying? Will anyone besides Mr. Quinton bury you after your death? You have to thank him for that!" Sean's assistant snapped."Is even a divorce not enough to make you drop your attitude? Looks like I should make you see what it's like without chemotherapy, then. I'll tell the hospital to stop treating you effective tomorrow. Let's see how long you hold out. You'll come begging me soon enough!" Sean growled.It was weird. Before my death, it had been a dail

Half a year ago, Sean Quinton had forced me to head abroad with him to the country where we'd registered our marriage. Our ship had veered off course and sunk in an uncharted area. We'd both choked on large amounts of contaminated water, leading to lung infections.Half a year later, we both lay in hospital beds and were on the brink of death. The uncharted area had turned out to be a wastewater zone—no one else had ever been there, so no one else had died because of this so-called lung infection.Since the doctors had no previous cases to refer to, they couldn't propose any treatment plans for us, no matter how wealthy Sean was.I'd shaved my head because of chemotherapy. When I returned after completing a session, Sean pointed at me, his eyes bloodshot. "She can be used as a sample, can't she? You guys can conduct research on her once she's dead! She has no money, so she can't pay for treatment. Our hospital doesn't treat the poor! Have you guys forgotten that?"It was true tha
