I hung in the air, staring blankly at the body on the autopsy table.It wasn't even human anymore. Its skin was completely destroyed, and the body was covered in a thin layer of frost.I couldn't even recognize that it was me."Winston, are you here?" Cayden Dalton, his assistant, saw him and asked, "The expedition team found the body when they were in Salakole this time."The face was all scratched up, and anything on her body that could prove her identity was taken away, so we suspect it's an intentional murder."Hearing that the body was salvaged from Salakole, Winston paused for a moment, then he put on his sterile gloves with a poker face.I floated in mid-air, staring at the man in front of me.Three years... It had been three years since I died.After I died, my soul was trapped in Salakole, suffering in the fierce wind and freezing weather all day.Until someone found me, they brought me back.But I didn't expect that Winston was the person who would personally diss
I hadn't hurt anyone, but why had I to see such inhumane images in the third year after my death? I floated down and looked at the tiny baby.This was the first time I saw that child.I didn't cry when I was killed by Vivian.I didn't cry when I watched Winston dissect me with his own hands.But now, my tears were falling without stopping.This child already had hands and feet.If I hadn't been killed by Vivian, this child would have been over two years old by now.He would have hugged me and called me mom.I would have given him the best of everything.But now, everything had been ruined."The identity of the deceased is still unclear. Ask them to get a DNA test."What a pity, Winston.If he had been more careful, he could have seen the wound I left on my belly when I saved him back then.It was just that we missed once again.Cayden took the things to be tested, glanced at the record paper, and continued to ask,"Winston, how long has this person probably died? You hav
My soul was forced to follow Winston back home.That home I used to be in was now devoid of all my traces.In its place were the things that belonged to Vivian and Winston."You are back." As soon as Vivian saw that Winston was back, she came up and wrapped her arms around Winston's waist.Winston tenderly held her in his arms, burying himself deep in the crook of her neck and closing his eyes.What a sweet scene!Winston had never done such an intimate action to me before."Does your hand still hurt?" Winston asked.Vivian smiled and shook her head. "It doesn't hurt anymore."Winston looked at her affectionately. "Did you take painkillers behind my back again?"Aryanna stabbed you so many times back then. You still have after-effects even now."I floated in the air, wanting to argue. It wasn't me. I didn't!Why did you misunderstand me based on Vivian's lies?Winston had never believed me.Before I fell in love with Winston, I didn't know that Winston had Vivian in his h
These days, I was forced to be tied up with Winston and Vivian.They were discussing the details of the wedding, trying on wedding dresses and makeup together with me watching in the air.It was the first time I realized that Winston could be so considerate for the wedding.Back when we got married, I tried several times to get him to accompany me to discuss the details of the wedding.All I received was a curt answer from him. "Don't you know I'm very busy?"Just a wedding, don't bother me about that."So it was not a matter of being unavailable, but rather the difference between loving and not loving.In the beginning, I would look at them, heartbroken. In the end, I was numb.It was until their wedding day.Winston was wearing a well-tailored suit, while Vivian was wearing a wedding dress that Winston had customized for her.They were like the princess and prince in a fairy tale.And unlike me three years ago, my wedding dress was rented for five hundred dollars.They st
The crowd dispersed, and my most respected mentor, Marquise Whitaker, appeared."Mr. Whitaker, it's so nice to see you here." Seeing Marquise, Vivian's eyes instantly lit up.Marquise gave her a very delicate gift. "My little girl, happy wedding day.""My little girl?" There was a time when Marquise called me that too."Winston, be nice to Vivian well, or I won't let go of you." Marquise smiled and patted Winston's shoulder."Blake is right. Fortunately, Aryanna left, otherwise, she would have straddled between you two. You may not get a happy ending."There were times when I wished that she had just died in Salakole and never appeared in front of us in this life."I floated in the air, listening to their ridiculous conversation.I couldn't even laugh, neither could I cry.Once upon a time, I was also a hoping star in the eyes of everyone on the expedition team.But now, people who said they loved me back then no longer trusted me.Winston looked at Marquise. "Mr. Whitaker,
I watched Winston hunch down a little.His phone was smashed on the ground accidentally.Winston's eyes were blank, looking dead ahead."Winston, what's wrong? Who's calling?" Vivian stood to the side, asking with concern.Winston wanted to speak but finally swallowed his words back down."Nothing, just a coworker."Marquise laughed and pushed him. "Winston, today is your wedding day. Why are you still thinking about work?""Let's go inside. The wedding is about to start." Vivian sensed something was wrong and tried to pull Winston inside.But then I saw that Winston seemed to be covered in sadness.He looked at Vivian carefully as if he wanted to see the true her.I recognized the emotions in his eyes. Countless times before, when Vivian had wronged me, he had looked at me with such eyes.Scrutinizing, suspicious, and distrustful..."What's wrong? Winston." Vivian's voice took on a bit of panic."Vivian, the team called and said that there was a problem with my previous t
It was the familiar dissecting table as well as the familiar man."How could it be you? How could it be you?"Winston's hands were shaking so badly that it took several attempts to open the bag containing me.When the bag was opened, there was a wave of cold air that came out.Winston didn't care so much. He came closer to try to see my features.But my face was covered with a hideous scar, making it impossible for him to see clearly.As if he thought of something, he quickly shifted his sight to my belly.A hideous scar showed on my belly.Winston looked at those scars a little bit but eventually landed on a not-so-impressive one.It was an old scar, a wound that was no more than 2 inches in length, with traces of stitches.I got that scar when Winston and I were dating four years ago.At that time, Winston took over a case. He was responsible for the test.The murderer was a vicious man. He wanted to die with Winston before he was caught.When he stabbed the knife toward
Winston looked at my body for a long time.Just when I thought he would keep looking, he suddenly got up, pulled up the bag, and put me back down.He picked up his keys and went straight back home.Just as he opened the door to his home, he was greeted with a fist."Winston, how can you do that to Vivian? You abandoned her at the wedding, you idiot!"Do you know how many people were laughing at her at that time?"Blake hit Winston, and his face was full of dissatisfaction with Winston.But Winston walked into the house in silence as if he hadn't heard."Winston, if you don't want to marry Vivian, you can just tell us. You can't abandon her on the wedding day."Marquise slammed the table loudly.I looked at all of this indifferently, watching these people defend Vivian.Winston sat down opposite Vivian without apology."It's okay. Winston is working on something important. I got it."Vivian smiled, making an understanding face."Vivian, does your wound still hurt?"Winsto
On the fifth day of Winston's stay at home, news finally came."Winston, be prepared." On the other end of the phone was Marquise.He said, "After DNA testing, Aryanna's blood was found on the ship. Vivian has confessed..."Back then, it was Vivian who tried to take the supplies and sneak away, and after Aryanna found out, she..."She is probably sentenced to life imprisonment."When he said this, Marquise choked. "For so many years, it has been us who have wronged Aryanna..."Winston calmly accepted the result. "OK, I know."After saying that, he hung up the phone and left the house for the first time in many days.The moment she saw Winston, Vivian's eyes instantly lit up. "Winston, did you come to save me?"Winston didn't answer this question, but asked, "Vivian, when you killed Aryanna, were you scared? Did you regret it?"Vivian looked at Winston through the glass and sank her face."Did you come just to say this?"Then I'll tell you, I don't regret it. Why can she be
Winston kicked everyone out and hid alone in the utility room.The room was full of dust, and in the far corner, Winston pulled out a box.There weren't many things inside the box. They were just things that I had once given to Winston.At the top was a bracelet.Gracie had given it to me before she died."Aryanna, I'm leaving. From now on, you and Winston should take care of each other."What did I say at that time?I said, "Gracie, don't worry. We'll spend our lives together."But in the end, I broke up with Winston. I didn't keep my word.Winston stared at the bracelet, and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.His trembling hand went to pick up the bracelet, but the further back he went, the more his hand shook.The bracelet fell and smashed into pieces on the ground.The cracks on it were like wounds covering my body."Aryanna..." Winston cried on his knees as if he had suppressed it for a long time.I coldly sat by his side, watching Winston cry.But in fact, Win
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone froze in place.No one was speaking for a long time."What test? With whom?" Vivian asked.I looked at Vivian, who was so nervous that her hands were shaking, and she was biting her lips.Winston's gaze was deep, and he said, "They brought back someone on this mission, a dead person."That person is Aryanna."You said Aryanna ran away, but why is her body in Salakole?"Vivian was incoherent. "Maybe it was when she ran away...""She accidentally died while running away?" Winston let out a light laugh. "Then why did she die with injuries all over her body?"Stab wounds were all over her face, neck, and belly."Everything that could prove her identity was taken away..."Winston said in a broken voice."Vivian, how do you expect me to trust you?""Winston. Are you telling the truth?" Marquise stood up slowly and asked incredulously.Under the gazes of the crowd, Winston nodded sadly."Aryanna is the one you brought back this time
