last update ปรับปรุงล่าสุด: 2024-09-10 18:56:25
During the winter, my condition became worse and I lost more and more weight.

When I woke up one morning, I felt that I was full of energy. I guessed that my body was giving me the last bit of adrenaline before I died.

I then decided to take Laura to the theme park while I was feeling good.

After coming back home, I changed into a set of clean clothes, put on some makeup and left the villa. I was headed for James's house.

I knew I was dying, but I didn't want to die in Chris's house. This would bring bad luck for him.

I wanted to die in James's house. I wanted the three of them to remember the day I died in front of them for the rest of my life.

This was payback for bullying my daughter.

James didn't seem to expect my arrival. He was a little taken aback when he saw me.

"What brought you over?" he asked.

I walked into the house uninvited. Looking at their family outfits, I smiled. 'It seems that they're quite happy. Well, let me shatter this happiness for them. I'm dying becau

  • The Regret of the Ex-husband   Chapter 1

    The day of my daughter's fifth birthday was the seventh wedding anniversary between me and James Frost.On the same morning, before he went to work, I begged him to come home early so that we could celebrate our daughter's birthday.As for our wedding anniversary, it didn't matter to me if we celebrated it or not.We never did anyway.He nodded, which was his way of saying yes.However, he still wasn't home at nine o'clock in the evening.I sent him a message asking him when he was coming home, but he didn't reply.I tried calling him, but he hung up instantly.Looking at the screen of my phone, my heart ached.I knew James hated me. That was why his attitude towards me over the past seven years had always been indifferent. I never complained about it either.I just told myself that I brought this on myself. I fell in love with someone I shouldn't have.I was willing to be a replacement.However, our daughter was innocent. He shouldn't treat her like this as well.Laura's

    James glared at me coldly and then went back to his room with Brenda in his arms.I then carried Laura to the table in my arms and was going to celebrate her birthday."Mom, does Dad not like me?" Laura asked all of a sudden.I didn't want Laura to be filled with hatred, so I lied to her. "Laura's a good girl, why would Dad not like you?""Then why doesn't he carry me in his arms?" Laura lowered her head and began crying.I kissed her pink cheeks, but didn't know how to comfort her.'Silly child. Your dad wants you dead, so there's no way that he would want to carry you in his arms,' I thought.I couldn't help but start crying again.My tears landed on the back of Laura's head. She reached out and tried to wipe away my tears."Don't cry, Mom. I don't want Dad to carry me anymore. It's all my fault that you're crying again."James walked out of the bedroom and frowned when he saw Laura and me crying."Catherine, we need to talk."I wiped away the tears on my face. "What do y

  • The Regret of the Ex-husband   Chapter 3

    James still hadn't returned the next morning when I was sending Laura to the nursery.I thought he wouldn't come home for a while like before after what happened last night.However, I was wrong again.When I got home, James was calling his mother and asking her how to make oat porridge.He said that Brenda wanted to have oat porridge.Looking at the man who had never cooked before, being busy in the kitchen with a pink apron on, my heart couldn't help but ache again.It was a good thing that Laura wasn't home.If she was, she would probably be crying again.Seeing me return, Brenda stood up from the sofa and rushed into the kitchen to wrap her arms around James's leg."Dad, that evil woman is back. I'm scared."James bent down and picked Brenda up with one hand as he continued cooking with the other."Don't be scared, Brenda. Your Dad's Superman. I'll protect you."Such a warm scene made my eyes feel like they were burning and tears quickly welled up in them.I walked to

    I felt that James would be overjoyed. After all, he loved Nova Collins so much.Even though she abandoned him for a rich guy seven years ago, he still loved her.He loved her to the core.As for me, the wife that stood by his side as he started his own company, was just an object that could satisfy his needs.He would wave at me when he needed me and would give me the silent treatment when he didn't.However, he was the one who begged me to marry him all those years back.Why did he treat me like this after I agreed to marry him?I felt that I had been a fool as well.He probably begged me to marry him because of the money that I had.He would no longer need me after he got the money. Therefore, he had lost his patience with me as well."Mom..." Laura suddenly woke up.I felt that she was very uncomfortable because her voice was like a whisper.I got rid of all the thoughts in my head and went to the side of the bed to comfort her."How do you feel, sweetheart? Do you stil

  • The Regret of the Ex-husband   Chapter 5

    I hadn't seen my parents or brothers for eight years. I bought them quite a lot of presents as well.I also introduced my daughter to them as well. "Mom, Dad, Luke, Emma, Jacob, and Jane, this is my daughter, Laura. She's just turned five two days ago."They all nodded indifferently, which made me feel awkward.Just when I didn't know what to do, James walked through the door with Brenda in his arms and Nova."Mom, Dad, we're back." Nova's voice was very sweet.A faint smile appeared on James's usually cold face as well. "Mr. and Mrs. Somerfield."My parents and two brothers immediately greeted them with a smile."Nova, James, you're finally here. Oh, Brenda's here as well. Come and give your grandma a hug.""Uncle Jacob wants a hug as well. I've bought you a piano. Let's head upstairs and take a look.""Give your grandpa a hug as well. I'll take you to the theme park."Brenda was surrounded by everyone like a princess and had a bright smile on her face.Laura held my hand a

    James kept his head lowered and didn't look at me at all.I guessed that he wanted to divorce me as well.That way, he could successfully become Brenda's father and Nova's husband. He could also be the official son-in-law of the Somerfield family.However, I wasn't going to let him get what he wanted."I'm sorry, but the divorce is a matter between me and James. It has nothing to do with anyone else."With that said, I turned on my heels to leave.Jacob's cursing sounded from behind as I left. "Look at her. She's not grateful at all.""Don't say that, Jacob. It's not her fault that the nurses made a mistake at the hospital. Let's not bring the divorce up again in the future. We can't ruin her family because of Brenda.""How are you ruining her family?" Jacob was still mad. "James loves you, not her. I'm suggesting this for her own could. Instead of torturing each other, why can't she give both of them a better time by getting a divorce? Am I right, James?"I didn't hear James'

    The day when we moved house, James stood at the door with a dark face."Catherine, do you think you're still a three-year-old? Why are you being so childish? I can't believe you're doing this just because I said something that you didn't like to hear."I remained silent and stood outside my new house. I just watched the cleaner cleaning my house.Laura seemed to be a little scared of James. She kept her arms wrapped around my legs the whole time.Brenda, on the other hand, held a doll in her hand with a proud look on her face.There was a ding, and the members of the Somerfield family walked out of the elevator.They ignored me and walked straight into James's house. They hugged and kissed Brenda."Hey, darling, are you happy living with your dad?""Look at what Uncle Jacob bought you, Brenda?"They only seemed to have remembered me a while later."What are you doing standing there? Go and make Brenda some food!" said Jacob.'Well, looks like they really think I'm a nanny. D

    Thud!I dropped the phone on the ground because I couldn't hold it anymore. Tears welled up in my eyes and blurred my vision.That was the daughter that I doted on. How could they bully her like that?My heart ached and so did my chest.I felt that every cell in my body was experiencing excruciating pain.I grabbed Chris's hand and cried, "I'm dying, Chris. I beg of you to find a good charity house for Laura. The one I went to said that Laura's not eligible. I know you have connections to make this happen. Please, I beg of you..."After saying those words, I passed out.When I woke up again, I had tubes all over my body.All I could smell was disinfectant as well.Chris and Rory were both sitting by my bed. When Rory saw me waking up, she grabbed my hand. Her eyes were red and swollen from all the crying."Catherine, are you a fool? Why didn't you tell me that you were sick?"I forced a smile on my face. "It's no big deal. I didn't want to cause you any trouble.""You're dy

    I could feel that I couldn't live for much longer.The feeling of the fact that I was going to die soon made me scared.I began preparing for my own funeral.I wrote a will and went to the notary office with it.I gave all my assets to Rory. She was Laura's godmother and I believed that she wouldn't mistreat Laura.After that, I contacted Mrs. Smith, who used to take care of me back in the Somerfield family.I gave her a large sum of money and she promised me to take care of Laura for me.From that day onwards, I began to cook endlessly for Laura. She loved my cooking and I was worried that she would never have the chance to eat any of my cooking after I die. I stuffed the fridge full of things that I prepared for her. But that wasn't enough. I bought two more freezers and filled them as well.I had also split the food that I prepared for Laura in separate bags before putting them in the freezer.I had also prepared Laura's future birthday gifts as well, starting from her 6th

    In the end, I still went to the Glory with them.However, it was Rory and Chris who dragged me there.Sitting in Chris's Maybach, I smiled bitterly and asked, "Chris, aren't you upset seeing your daughter calling someone else Dad?""You should ask your ex-husband that question," Chris said casually."Why? He doesn't care about Laura. Are you willing to give them Brenda?" I changed into a more comfortable position and said, "James isn't a good father at all. You should ask for Brenda back when you get the chance."I felt that Brenda would become a selfish bitch sooner or later if she stayed with Nova and James.Chris pulled up at the side of the road before he turned around and looked at me. "Catherine, have you mistaken something? Brenda isn't my daughter."I quickly opened my eyes and gave him a puzzled look. "She's not your daughter? Aren't the two of you married?""What? You're my fiancee. Our names are written on the marriage contract, how can I abandon you?" Chris frowned.

    I didn't participate in the parent-child event at all.Rory and Chris accompanied Laura and completed all the games. They had come in first place in many of them as well.Laura was also smiling very happily as well. She was so close to Rory and Chris that even I began to be a little jealous.Brenda seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the results today. She pointed at the certificates in Laura's hands and began sobbing again.James, being the loving father that he was, went to the teacher and asked if he could buy a certificate.However, he returned empty-handed. He then began having ideas for the certificates that Laura had."Laura, can you give Brenda one of your certificates? I can give you some money and you can go buy some of your favorite toys later on."Laura wrapped her arms around Chris's leg and began crying. "Uncle Chris, can you tell him to go away? I don't like him."James was taken aback at first, but then he raised his hand and slapped Laura in the face."Who

    I turned and looked at Rory and Chris, then at Nova. I suddenly felt that things were getting too complicated.If I remember correctly, Chris should be Nova's husband. How did he become Rory's boyfriend?I frowned and felt that things were getting out of hand.The Somerfield family and the Shaw family were having a marriage alliance. Both Chris and I obeyed the arrangements of our family and got engaged.When the real daughter of the Somerfield family returned, the marriage was naturally Nova's responsibility.After that, I was kicked out of the family, so I didn't know what exactly happened between them.I didn't expect to see Chris, my ex-fiance, under such circumstances.I curved my lips helplessly. The relationship between the five of us was very complicated and could even be written as a book.At that moment, Chris took out a bag of crisps and passed it to me."You should have something to eat as well.""Okay." I forced myself to not be curious as I took the bag of crisp

    Rory came back at eight o'clock in the morning on Friday. She didn't even have time to head back home and rushed straight to Laura's nursery.She began kissing and hugging Laura as soon as she arrived. "I'm sorry, Laura. I was caught up in something, so I'm a little late.""You're not late, Aunt Rory." Laura shook her head with a smile. "Thank you for coming, Aunt Roy. I'll treat you to some food later on."Rory laughed at those words and rubbed Laura's head. "I have a big appetite. Do you think you have enough money?""Yep!" Laura took out a piggy bank from her bag and passed it to Rory. "This should be enough. I have quite a lot of money in there.""Alright! Then I'll definitely..."Before Rory could finish speaking, I saw James and Nova at either side of Brenda as they walked towards the gates of the nursery.I stood at the entrance and felt a little jealous when I saw how happy the family of three was.However, after feeling jealous, all I had left was hatred."That's Jame

    I had to take quite a lot of painkillers after arriving back home to ease the pain.I lay on the sofa with my eyes closed and felt that dying just like that would be a good thing.There wouldn't be any more pain if I died."Mom..." Laura quickly ran over to me and wrapped her arms around me. "I don't want Dad anymore. I don't want Mom to be in a quarrel with Mr. Frost."'Mr. Frost?' I wondered.It took me a while to realize that Laura was referring to James."Aw, don't cry, Laura. I promise you that I won't quarrel with him anymore."I pulled Laura into my arms and rested my chin on her forehead. Tears trickled down my face uncontrollably.That was when my phone suddenly started ringing. It was my best friend, Rory Lister.I quickly wiped the tears from my face and asked Laura to sit by my side before accepting the video call request."What made you call me today, Rory?" I asked.Rory smiled. "I just finished today's shooting and suddenly remembered that it was Laura's birth
