My father-in-law, George Lane, suffered from a brain aneurysm and fell onto the ground. The floor was covered in his blood. I calmly picked up a mop and wiped the floor clean. As his daughter-in-law, I gave up on saving him within the most critical time. In my last life, I was the first person who found out that George was injured. I immediately got an ambulance and sent him to the hospital. Before the surgery, the hospital required his immediate family member to sign off the consent form. However, when I asked my husband, Brian Lane to come to the hospital to sign that document, he thought that I was acting out of jealousy because he was spending time with his first-love. He thought I was making an excuse to get him home, so he refused to go to the hospital. In the end, George passed away as he did not receive the treatment on time. Brian did not manage to see George for the last time, and he blamed it all on me. He then hacked me to death. “It’s your fault! My dad was so old, and you didn’t take good care of him as a daughter-in-law! Since you’re not doing your part when he’s alive, then you should continue your duties as a daughter-in-law in hell!” When I opened my eyes, I found myself on the day when George died again.

Brian’s white shirt was drenched in red blood. Camden looked at Brian’s lifeless form and tossed away the dagger. He held his hand against his wound and ran anxiously toward the lift. Unexpectedly, a few policemen rushed out from the lift and pinned him against the ground. “Let go of me! I’m innocent! I only acted out of self-defense! He was going to kill me! I was just defending myself! Let me go!” The policemen walked over to check Brian’s vitals. They realized that he was still breathing, so they quickly called an ambulance. The ambulance arrived soon and took both Brian and Camden to the hospital. As the witness, I was brought to the police station. I did not kill anyone and had only used pepper spray to defend myself. The dagger did not have my fingerprints on it, and after the neighbors testified, I was soon released. Brian died on the way to the hospital due to serious injuries. As for Camden, he had inflicted unnecessary additional harm to Brian, and it caus

“You should die for what you’ve done!” He took out a dagger and walked toward me with wide eyes. “Open the door! Brian!”Just when I was thinking about how to get out of this situation, there was a knock on the door. It was Camden!I really wanted to run over and open the door, but I did not dare to do it. Brian was too close to the door. I was afraid that before I could open the door, I would get stabbed. “Brian! I know you’re in there! If you don’t open the door, I’ll call the police!”Brian had always respected Camden, but when he heard Camden’s words, his eyes became murderous. He looked at me and took a deep breath. “When did you start your affair with Camden? Hmm? Was it because I don’t love you and touch you anymore? That’s why you became shameless and got into my cousin’s bed? Lindsay, you cheater!”“Brian, don’t assume everyone is like you! I don’t have any inappropriate relationship with Camden! I barely even interact with him usually! Stop defaming me!”“C

The police asked me to go to the police station to pay the fine and discuss the compensation. I would be able to leave after signing those documents. Initially, I did not want to go. However, I felt that the police station was the best place to talk about divorce. I did not dare to discuss it with him alone. When I reached the police station, Brian was sitting on the metal bench. He avoided my gaze uneasily when he saw me. I paid the fine and a thirty-thousand-dollar compensation to the other party. Brian picked up his jacket from the bench and glared at me fiercely. He then said through gritted teeth, “Camden wasn’t free to come over. If not, I wouldn’t have called you.”I took a deep breath when I looked at this disgusting man. “Brian, let’s get a divorce!”He was walking toward the exit when he heard what I said. He turned around and looked at me in disbelief. “Are you sure?”“Yes!”However, he looked as if he had just heard a funny joke. His gaze was full of disdain

Eleanor and I had made an appointment at 3 p.m. at a cafe the next day. I was a few minutes late due to the traffic jam. When I reached, Eleanor was already there. She sat on the chair and worked while drinking coffee. I was a little envious. I wanted to be a career woman too, but when I got pregnant two years ago, Brian advised me to quit my job and stay at home to rest. Even after we lost our child, he rejected my request to go out and work again. He told me to stay at home and take care of his father. Eleanor was very concentrated on her work and did not look up when I walked toward her. “What are you looking at?”“Ah, you’re here. I’m watching a very popular video. It’s of a man hugging and grieving his dead wife that had just lost her son.”That sounded a little familiar. “Are you referring to the woman who jumped off the hospital building?” “Yes, that’s the one!”I smiled bitterly.“That man is my husband, Brian.” Eleanor was stunned. Then, it seemed like some

After the funeral services ended, Brian knelt in front of George’s tombstone in a daze. He suddenly began to cry as he looked at George’s photo on the tombstone. I only felt hatred and satisfaction when I saw him in pain. I did not dare to be alone with him, so I prepared to bring up the topic of divorce in front of everyone. Before I could say it, his phone rang again. Brian did not answer, but the person kept calling him.He finally answered the third call. It was unknown what the caller said, but Brian immediately became anxious.He stood up to leave. “Where are you heading again?”Camden was unhappy and stopped Brian. “Camden, Dawn is not okay. Her son just passed away from an illness, and Dawn can’t handle it. She’s threatening to kill herself! I need to go!” I found it ironic when I heard that. Two years ago, I had a child with Brian, but suffered a miscarriage six months into it. When I was in despair and upset, Brian could not control the delight on his fac

“Get down on your knees! Aren’t you looking for Uncle George? There he is inside this urn! How stupid and ignorant do you have to be to think that we’re all lying to you? Are you really worth all that effort?”Camden was fired up. His wife, Kim Smith, patted his arm to console him. Maybe Camden was too agitated, for Kim stopped patting him and stiffly moved to the side. Brian looked at the urn on the table and George’s photo in my hands and collapsed on the floor. He grabbed his hair and started bawling. Suddenly, he looked up and glared viciously at me. He roared and threw himself at me like a beast. “It’s all your fault! My dad was so old yet you didn’t take good care of him as his daughter-in-law! Since you didn’t take good care of him while he was alive, then you should die and serve him in hell! Die! You should die!” I was not prepared for his outburst. He grabbed me by the neck, and I could not pry his hands away regardless of how hard I tried. Just when I thought

Camden ran his hand through his hair and cursed loudly. Then, he took out his phone and gave Brian a call with trembling hands. I looked up gratefully at him. Brian answered the call, and Camden immediately scolded him. “Brian, I don’t care where you are or what you’re doing, come to Peace Hospital right now!” It was noisy over Brian’s side, as if he was in a crowded place. “Camden? Lindsay Parker is insane. She actually managed to convince you to lie to me! Forget about Lindsay, why are you conspiring with her? I really have urgent things to attend to now and don’t have time for this nonsense! I can’t believe she got you too. Can’t she be more independent? I need to go, bye!” Camden was about to say more when Brian hung up on him without any hesitation. Camden stared at his phone, then started to spam Brian with more calls. However, he only heard the robotic voice of voicemail. In the end, Brian also blocked Camden’s number. I was crying with my face pressed into

When I opened my eyes again, I saw my father-in-law, George Lane, lying on the floor. Since I was young, I would faint when I saw blood, so I wanted to give my husband, Brian Lane, a call. I unlocked my phone, but the image of Brain hacking me with a cleaver appeared in my mind. It was as if I could feel the pain again. My finger hovered on the phone screen before I stopped myself from calling Brian. Instead, I gave his cousin, Camden Lane, a call. He answered right away. “Brian, quick, come back home. George fell down, and there is a lot of blood. What should I do? I’m terrified of blood. Come back, quick!” I pretended that I had dialed the wrong number and talked in a way that it sounded like I was sobbing. “Don’t panic, I’m coming over now.” Camden lived very close, just a ten-minute walk away. As expected, within five minutes, he was already knocking on the door. I immediately opened the door. I feigned surprise when I saw him. “Camden? Didn’t I call Brian?”
