All Chapters of The Doctor's Wife: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

My husband Christopher Lumiere succumbed to a deliberate overdose of sleeping pills.He was promptly rushed to the hospital, but was declared dead upon arrival—a lifeless husk. Emily Landon, his junior and the doctor tasked with saving him, failed to revive him despite her efforts. She solemnly passed me his official death certificate, heavy with sorrow. "He's gone, Yuna," she told me, anguished. "Please accept my condolences. I just need your sign here so we can send his body to the morgue."I jolted awake, breaking free from my daze. My eyes fell on Emily. I touched my legs, tracing their shape. To my great surprise, they were perfectly fine. Realization struck me like lightning—I had been reborn, given the chance for a second life. Before, in my previous life, Christopher had chosen to end his life via sleeping pills. I had rushed to the hospital the moment I caught wind of it, but I had been a step too late. Despite strenuous rescue efforts, it was futile—he was declared

At this very moment, Lucy hurried over, her arms laden with several shopping bags filled to the brim with designer clothes and handbags. She must have rushed here straight from the mall, so much in a hurry that she hadn't even had time to put them down.When she caught sight of the inheritance donation document in my hand, her expression grew dark. She marched straight toward me, and swung one of her bags at my head."You spendthrift wench! You can't even bear a son, and now you're trying to take my son's money? Over my dead body!" she screeched. Seething with rage, she grabbed the donation document and ripped it into shreds. The lawyer didn't dare intervene, while the people around us stepped back. Neither was willing to get involved with one they now saw as a mad woman.Emily, reassured by Lucy's arrival, finally sighed in relief. She then turned to me, feigning concern."Yuna, you should listen to your mother-in-law. This money can't be donated!" she chided righteously. To

Children were often the most straightforward with their words.Emily held her child’s hand, making no attempt to stop the boy. Rather, she shot me a triumphant grin. I studied her face—smooth, with no wrinkles whatsoever. She hadn't aged a day. The sight drove me into mad jealousy. Desperation filled my eyes as I tried to understand."Why?" I demanded, anguished. "Why did you lie to me?" In truth, I knew the answer. However, I refused to believe it until I heard it from Christopher's lips.Christopher pulled away, narrowing his eyes. A sarcastic smirk spread across his face."You're an idiot for trusting my lies. How could I escape that insane family if I didn't pretend to be dead? I should thank you for taking the brunt of their anger. It's too bad you didn't die."At that moment, everything became clear to me.When the surgery had gone wrong, Christopher knew he would end up in jail even if he survived the family's wrath. Hence, he and Emily faked his death. After all, wh

When Lucy and Nancy saw the figure in the cremator, they screamed in horror."Switch it off!" Lucy demanded, panicked. "Switch it off! My son isn't dead!"At the critical moment, she finally abandoned the ruse of Christoper's fake death. Alas, she was a step too late.Once Christoper was reduced to ashes, she collapsed weakly to the ground. Her face, lined with wrinkles, seemed to have aged significantly in an instant.She crawled forward, drowning in tears, but the staff stopped her. "Don't go near it, ma'am. It's still hot!"Lucy pushed them away, sobbing uncontrollably. "That's my son! Didn't you see him sit up? This is murder!"I held back my laughter, maintaining an expression of concern as if trying to console a grieving elder. "Mom, Christoper is already gone. Please stay strong."Lucy, trembling with rage, lunged at me like a wild animal. "You vile woman! You killed my son! Give him back to me!"She almost knocked me over, but I steadied myself and said earnestly, "Yo

I wiped away my tears, and continued watching.In the footage, Lucy skipped happily out of the office. Emily and Christoper were left alone in an intimate position, with her on his lap."Emily, once I'm free from that old hag, I'll take you and our child abroad. I'll give you the grand wedding you deserve. You'll be my beautiful bride!" he vowed.Emily replied to him with an affectionate kiss on the lips. Very quickly, the two fell into a passionate embrace. As Christoper lifted her onto the office desk, her face flushed red with embarrassment."We can't do it yet… I just got pregnant."Christoper shamelessly wrapped his arms around her waist and caressed her back, his lust as clear as day. "It's fine. We'll just have to be careful. We won't hurt our baby…"In a matter of minutes, their indecent moans could be heard from the footage. The police quickly came to their senses and switched off the monitor.Upon seeing this, I staggered. A female officer supported me and helped me
