I have Terminal Cancer, My Wife Only Saves Her First Love1
In order to bear her childhood sweetheart's child, who returned from overseas with a terminal illness, my wife, Mia,
insisted on aborting our six-month-old twin daughters.
"It's worth it to exchange two lives for the continuation of his family name.
"Can you stop being so petty? Do you want to lose me after losing our children?"
I told her that I had advanced stage cancer.
She, however, wore a disdainful expression.
"I hate it to see you imitating him.
"If you die, it would be for the best. In this case, I'm not giving birth to any fatherless child. It's all for the best now!"

"Honey, I don't want the babies!"
Still trying to recover from the shadow of cancer, I asked slowly,
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?
