Chapter 2
“Is the patient’s family here?”
“He’s in critical condition–you need to see him now!”
The nurse’s urgent voice pulled me out of my thoughts.
I took a deep breath, smoothed out my clothes, and walked into the room.
Andrew lay on the hospital bed, covered in blood.
When he saw me, his fingers twitched.
His eyes were filled with desperation.
“J–Jennifer… save me…”
Looking down at him, half–dead and helpless, I felt nothing but satisfaction.
I stood over him, toying with his wedding ring.
I spoke slowly, my voice light and careless.
“Andrew, it’s not that I don’t want to save you…”
“It’s just that everyone here heard it–I don’t have any money to pay for your surgery.“,
His lips trembled.
He struggled to get the words out.
“C–call… my… mom…”
Even speaking was excruciating for him–his whole face twisted in pain.
I covered my face with my hands, pretending to sob.
“I called her already.”
“She said she doesn’t have a single penny to spare.”
“She even blocked me.”
He gasped, his eyes filling with fear.
He tried again.
“Use… my… card…”

I dropped my hands. My face was dry.
Then, I smiled. A strange, eerie smile.
I reached out and pressed hard on his fresh wounds.
Andrew screamed.
I let go after a long moment, wiping his blood off on his hospital gown.
“Andrew, I’ve known about your affair for a long time.”
“I even know where she lives.”
His eyes widened in shock.
I chuckled, though I wasn’t sure if I was laughing at him–or at myself.
“And I also know about the life insurance policy you took out on me.”
“A ridiculously high payout…”
“Just waiting for the day I’d have an ‘accident‘ so you and your little mistress could cash in, right?”
Andrew choked, his whole body seizing up.
A second later, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
I found out about his affair on our second wedding anniversary.
We were supposed to have dinner and watch a movie together.
But just before we were about to leave, he suddenly apologized.
“Babe, I’m so sorry.”
“Work emergency–I have to stay late.”
But what he didn’t know was that, a day earlier, I had received an anonymous text message.
“Guess what?”
“On your anniversary, your husband’s gonna be with me instead.”
At the time, I thought it was just a stupid prank.
But when Andrew bailed on me, I realized it was a challenge.
So I followed his car.
He didn’t go to the office.

He drove straight to a five–star hotel.
I walked to the front desk, flashed my marriage certificate, and asked some questions.
Turned out, he was a regular there.
I stood frozen, like I had just been struck by lightning.
For a long moment, all I could hear was the sound of my own heart breaking.
I had thought about barging into that hotel room, confronting him, making a scene.
But then what?
If I divorced him, he’d just get to be with her, happy and free.
No.
That wouldn’t be enough.
Since that day, I started keeping a close eye on Andrew.
I found out he took out a hefty life insurance policy on me–plotting to make my “accidental” death look natural.
I played along, letting him think he had everything under control.
Until today.
Today, Andrew had an accident.
Turns out, he had a generous insurance policy of his own–one that had just kicked in.
Of course, I wasn’t about to tell him that.
As he lay there, seething with anger and regret, I closed his eyes for him.
“Rest in peace, honey.”
The moment Andrew shut his eyes for good, it was like half my strength drained out of me.
I collapsed on the floor and sobbed uncontrollably.
I cried the whole night–until my eyes were swollen shut.
His parents got the news early the next morning.
When they rushed over, they were so shaken, they could barely stand.
Before my mother–in–law could lash out, I beat her to it, launching at her like a lioness.
“Why?! Why didn’t you send the money?!”

“Why did you block my calls?!”
“You have any idea?!”
“Andrew DIED because I couldn’t pay for his surgery!”
“This is on you!”
“If you hadn’t forced Andrew to hand over his paycheck, he wouldn’t have died like that!”
“What kind of mother does that to her own son?!”
I wailed like my heart was being ripped out.
My mother–in–law was too consumed by grief to react at first.
When she finally did, her finger trembled as she pointed at me.
“It was YOU! You cursed him!”
“You knew he was in trouble and didn’t tell me!”
“You let him die on purpose, didn’t you?!”
Before I could respond, the crowd around us jumped in for me.
