My Mother-in-law Was Critically Ill, My Husband Was Busy Pursuing His LoverChapter 1

My husband Ian Whitman's mother, Carol Wilson, was critically ill, and she was waiting for him to sign for her surgery.

Ian, however, was busy trying to get his first love, Bella Moore, back, who was going abroad.

I pretended to be in a hurry and called him. When he hung up, I watched helplessly as Carol departed from the world forever.

In my previous life, I managed to inform Ian about Carol's critical illness, and he left Bella behind to rush to the hospital.

It turned out that he was late, so all he saw was Carol's cold body.

Bella disappeared from his life after that.

Ian said he didn't blame me, but on the day of Carol's funeral, he knocked me out and dragged me to Carol's headstone.

He stabbed into my heart and turned the hilt with both hands as forcefully as he could.

Ian stared at my bloody wound relentlessly, his eyes red.

"Why did you insist on rushing me to the hospital? I'm not a doctor, so how would I change the outcome if I went there? I'll never hear from Bella again for the rest of my life just because of you. You should be buried with my mom!"
