Three Years Too Late Chapter 5
The moment Tiana saw Andrew, panic gripped her. Hope flared up in my chest again. I threw myself at him, desperately begging him to save our daughter. "Andrew, please save Stella! I beg you, please! She's dying!"From where he stood, he could only manage to catch a glimpse of Stella's body. Just as he was about to approach and check on her, Tiana stopped him and said, "Andy, Caden just said he has a terrible headache. We should take him to the hospital!"Stella tried to crawl over to speak to him, but the sharp pain that shot through her when she hit her wound forced a whimper from her lips as she collapsed to the ground.Perhaps it was the bond of blood—because in that very moment, Andrew suddenly winced as well, as if feeling her pain."What's wrong with Stella?" he asked, clearly puzzled.Feigning sorrow, Tiana replied, "She's been kneeling at the door for so long, and I was really worried about her. I wanted to bring her back inside, but… it seems like she doesn't apprec
Three Years Too Late Chapter 6
Andrew slammed the accelerator to the floor, running through red lights all the way.Glancing at Stella's ghastly pallor through the rearview mirror, he spiraled into turmoil. How had she ended up like this? What exactly had happened? Who did this to his daughter? Was he also involved? Suddenly, he remembered the despair in Stella's eyes when he kicked her out before.Panic gripped Andrew. It felt as if something precious was slipping through his fingers.By the time Dorothy and Tiana rushed to the hospital, he had already been squatting in front of the emergency room for over three hours. Looking completely at a loss, he seemed to have aged overnight.Dorothy immediately went up to him and asked, "Andy, how is that worthless brat doing right now? Why bother taking her to the hospital when she's just mildly injured? “Imagine how much money you're going to waste on her! I'd rather you buy more new clothes for my dear Caden."Andrew shot her an incredulous look. "Mom, you have
Three Years Too Late Chapter 7
The tip was from the homeless man. Seeing how the Lornes treated me and my daughter, he suspected there was more to my death. So, he went to the station. "That's impossible! There's no way Jovana is dead. Who are you guys? Who gave you the right to spout nonsense here?"Andrew was dumbfounded when he heard the police. His face twisted in disbelief as his shouts echoed through the room. His entire body trembled uncontrollably, and his face turned ghastly pale. He kept muttering that my death wasn't real, but the police didn't bother explaining any further. They simply took him straight to the police stations' morgue. With quivering hands, he lifted the white sheet. The moment he saw the remains, he collapsed to the floor. Staggering to his feet, he stumbled toward the exit like a madman on the verge of losing his sanity. "T-This isn't my wife," he muttered, his pupils blown wide. "You just brought in some random bones to trick me—I won't believe it! My wife's still alive.
Three Years Too Late Chapter 8
The police arrived at Stella's ward before Andrew did. She told the officers everything about how Dorothy and Tiana abused her. "My dad saw everything, yet he allowed them to abuse me. It's all his fault."Hearing this, Andrew felt as if his heart had shattered to a million pieces. The agony in his chest was so intense that he could barely stand.Dropping to his knees in front of Stella's ward, he sobbed silently, consumed by endless regret. He desperately wished he had died instead. I stood behind him, watching how broken he was. But honestly, I felt nothing. Everything was far too late. The police arrested both Dorothy and Tiana. Not long after, the beggars who had been responsible for my death were also caught. When the police found Andrew, he was lying in a small rented room, reeking of alcohol. Clutched in his arms was a wedding photo, and he kept gently caressing the smiling woman in it, as if she were still there with him.I had been the campus belle back in unive
Three Years Too Late Chapter 9
Caden was straddling Stella, holding a knife he had been using to peel fruit. He was just about to stab her with it when she grabbed his hand, struggling to get away from him. I was frantic, terrified that she would get hurt again. Fortunately, after a while, Andrew's voice echoed from the hallway. As soon as he opened the door, Stella suddenly let go. The knife in Caden's hand landed on her. Seeing this, Andrew nearly went insane. He rushed forward, kicked Caden aside, and hurriedly checked Stella's injuries. Thankfully, the stab wound wasn't deep, but it bled heavily and looked gruesome. "Daddy!" Stella cried out. "He's trying to kill me. I'm so scared!"Caden was terrified by the scene and stood there dumbfounded. After a long time, he finally came to his senses and dropped the knife in his hand.Rushing over to Andrew, he clung to his leg and sobbed, "Uncle Andy, I missed you so much. Where have you been these past few days? You left me all alone by myself!"Mommy an
Three Years Too Late Chapter 1
Three years after I was dead, Andrew Lorne and his mother, Dorothy Evans, came to the countryside to take me back.The moment the heavily rusted iron gates creaked open and the weed-choked yard came into view, their expressions soured."That jinx, Jovana! Look at what she's done to our family residence," Dorothy grumbled, furiously yanking away the blades of grass in her way as she stormed inside.Her eyes burned with fury as she hollered, "Where is she? She doesn't even bother to clean the house! It took us a great deal to come all the way here, yet she doesn't even want to show up!"Oh, my poor Andy! How unfortunate of you to have married such a useless woman."Hearing this, Andrew grew increasingly agitated, the joy he had shown when he first arrived completely gone from his eyes. He kicked open the bedroom door. A musty smell hit him, and he immediately covered his nose and mouth, grimacing in disgust. Pulling out a document from his bag, he tossed it onto the table and be
Three Years Too Late Chapter 2
Hearing the familiar voice, I shuddered. It was Tiana Wells, Andrew's sister-in-law.Memories of my suffering flooded my mind at the sight of this vile woman. I lunged at her, biting and kicking her as I screamed at Andrew, "It was her! She killed me! Andrew, you have to avenge me."But all my efforts were in vain—no one could hear me. Tiana walked right through my spirit and strode into the yard. She motioned for an old man behind her to show himself, gesturing to him to speak.The old man looked hesitant, seemingly mortified as he began, "The first day Jovana arrived here, a man pulled up in a sports car and took her away."I heard she called him darling, and they seemed very close to each other."Andrew swerved toward him, his expression darkening as he gritted out, "Is that true?"The old man swore he was telling the truth.Feigning concern, Tiana sidled up to Andrew and said, "Andy, I know you're upset, but this is a fact. After Jovana was sent to the countryside, I had
Three Years Too Late Chapter 3
After a long silence, Andrew yanked Stella up from the ground, saying that he was taking her for a paternity test.They threw the homeless man out of the yard, locked the gate again, and stormed off. My heart ached so badly when I watched how resolute Andrew was. I couldn't believe he actually doubted that Stella was even his daughter. How ridiculous—he was the one who watched her being born and said she looked just like him.He wasn't always like this. We fell in love in college and got married right after graduation. He had cried like a child at our wedding, repeatedly confessing his love for me. "Jo, I'll love you forever—till death do us part."Andrew put me above all else after marriage, spoiling me endlessly. Whenever I had conflicts with Dorothy, he would always firmly take my side. And when our daughter was born, he doted on her so much. He would've brought her the moon if he could.But everything changed after he brought Tiana in. He said his older brother had

Three Years Too Late Chapter 4
At midnight, Stella woke up. Her stomach was growling. She climbed from the couch in the living room and padded toward the kitchen, only to find that there was nothing there. She tiptoed over to the fridge and opened the door. A sweet aroma immediately filled her senses. Inside the fridge, there was a box of chocolate cake. Stella's eyes lit up. But the moment her hand landed on the box, she pulled it back right away. "I… I won't eat it," she mumbled. "Daddy will be upset."My heart shattered into pieces as I watched her tread so cautiously.Just as she was about to close the fridge door, someone suddenly shoved her from behind. As she was caught off guard, her hand got caught in the door with a painful slam.It was Caden. "Well, well," he drawled out. "Looks like some little thief is trying to steal the cake Uncle Andy bought for me!"The pain drained all the color from Stella's face. She shook her head desperately, but Caden leaned harder into the door, trapping her h
