All Chapters of A Heart Reduced to Ashes: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

I was standing outside the office. After hearing Yoel Lawson's conversation with Dr. Xavier Fisher, my legs became weak."Hey, I can ignore you setting up your own wife to save Rosa, but I still think it's a real shame for the child to die," said Dr. Fisher.Yoel stayed silent for a few seconds before saying that he told the hit-and-run driver to hit us with the right force. He didn't expect how reckless the driver would be."Is Rosa really worth all the trouble you've gone through? If anyone finds out that you've hurt your wife and killed your own son, your reputation is going to be ruined. Not only that, but you'll be locked up as well!""My life is a small price to pay as long as Rosie is healthy and happy. If my kidney was a match for her, we wouldn't have had to put in so much effort back then. Instead, I would have voluntarily given it to her."Yoel sounded a little upset when he said that."But Felicity loves you and your son dearly. Aren't you worried that she'll lose her

That was the gift I gave Remy.When Rosa saw me, she chuckled coldly and nodded at me. That was all I could get as a greeting. I rushed toward her and told her to return the locket to me.Rosa looked surprised, and she mocked me for being petty. "It's not even that valuable. Since Yoel has already given it to me, you're embarrassing yourself by wanting it back."I suppressed the anger inside me because I really wanted to get the locket. "If you like it that much, I can buy a hundred of it for you right now, Rosa. All you have to do is give that back to me."When she heard that, she looked at me in disdain. "I'm sorry, but my dog just loves this.""You…" I wanted to say something else, but she interrupted me right away."Besides, didn't this locket jinx your dead son? Don't worry. I'm not worried about it being unlucky. After all, my dog has a better life than your son!"The last bit of sanity I had had crumbled, and I slapped her twice furiously. I didn't care at all when she sc

Yoel looked deep into my eyes, and it seemed as if he really missed me. After feeling shocked for a moment, I quickly recomposed myself. "Have you brought it?"He was stunned for a second before asking what I meant.I scoffed and said, "The divorce papers! All I needed was your signature, right?"It felt like I had flipped a switch when I said that because he had a big reaction instantly. "I'm not agreeing to the divorce!"After that, he rushed toward me and grabbed my shoulders. "I've been looking for you for 128 days, Felicity. Do you even know how close I am to losing my mind? How could you be so cruel to me?"I was greeted by his scent as it surrounded me instantly. I had wanted to feel that warmth for a long time. Even at that moment, I was wavering a little. However, I remembered the accident he had orchestrated to take my kidney away for Rosa and how it killed Remy.So, I immediately returned to my senses. "How can you still say that to my face so shamelessly?"Yoel insta

I turned around to leave. Yoel left Rosa behind and came after me like a madman. I was exhausted, and I didn't want to hear his excuses anymore. I didn't want to live in this endless dilemma."You want me to forgive you, don't you?" After he nodded, I pointed at Rosa and said, "In that case, can you kill her now?"Back then, he said he would willingly be in jail or even die for Rosa. If he could kill and be locked up for me this time, then I would believe that he had changed.When I saw how he was standing there in a daze, I laughed without holding back. "Oh, I thought you were a man who would do anything for love. After all, you willingly killed your own son and snatched your wife's kidney for Rosa! So, why are you hesitating now?"The teachers who came because of the commotion heard what I'd said when they arrived. Their eyes widened in shock as they stared at Yoel.A hurt expression showed up in his eyes, and he went mad in the end. "I'm not afraid of prison, but you're just go

I was stunned for a moment before I started laughing uncontrollably. After everything we had been through, we were back to the starting point. It was as if everything in our lives was planned in advance.Yoel kissed the back of my hand with his dry lips, and I looked at the wall in deep thought."Don't worry, dear. We've already found a donor, and you can go for the surgery right away."Dr. Fisher wanted to say something, but he stayed silent in the end. Instead, he just looked at Yoel with an anxious and pained gaze.I tried to pull my hand out, but I failed. After taking a deep breath, I said solemnly, "I'll agree to the surgery once we have our divorce."Yoel was completely stunned, and he looked at me in a daze. "Would you rather die than be with me again?""Yes." I nodded. "Let's just end things here right now."Dr. Fisher said emotionally, "Felicity, Yoel has…"Yoel interrupted the doctor and said, "Alright. Let's do it." He finally let go of my hand, and the warmth on my
