Chapter 7

作者: Little Shadow
Gabriel glared bitterly at Keira, likely suspecting that she had lost her nerve to shove me off the cliff.

Looking at their distinct expressions, I suddenly laughed. "Did you two want me to go over the edge?"

Both of them froze.

Keira forced a tight smile. "Cody, what nonsense are you talking about?"

I didn't move. Instead, I pulled my phone from my pocket and played the video recording of Gabriel in the study.

"Keira, you ungrateful bitch! You had me drain the brake fluid…" Gabriel's furio

  • I Can Hear Their Murder Plots   Chapter 9

    Three years later, a rehabilitation clinic officially held its grand opening right in the heart of the city's bustling commercial district.Dressed in a sharp, tailored suit, I stood in the center of the room delivering my opening address.My right leg—once severely atrophied—showed no remaining trace of disability, save for a faint surgical scar along my calf. Every step I took was steady and grounded.The room was packed with people.Among them were my former lead physician, investors who had believed in my project's potential, and fellow patients who had stayed by my side through my darkest days. Now, they were all part of my team, rewarded with generous compensation.After surviving that ordeal, I refused to let my life waste away.I took my reclaimed divorce assets along with the massive compensation payout from Keira and went abroad to formally study rehabilitation.Not just for myself, but for every patient out there who, like me, was once handed a slow death sentence by

    The moment Keira saw me, the dead, hollow light in her eyes suddenly burst into a desperate flare.She broke free from the police officer's grip and fell to her knees before me with a heavy thud."Cody! Cody, I was wrong!" she wept hysterically. She was now stripped of any remaining grace or the arrogant poise she had once carried as a chief cardiac surgeon."I lost my mind! That bastard Gabriel manipulated me! Forgive me, please. I do love you!"As I looked down from above at the woman I had once loved so deeply, I felt nothing but a wave of nausea.A cold chuckle escaped my lips. "Keira, I've always wanted to ask you one question. If you had truly fallen out of love with me and fallen for Gabriel, all you had to do was tell me the truth."I'm not someone who would cling on desperately. I would have signed the divorce papers and let you both be together. So why go for the kill? Why did you have to take my life?"Keira froze where she knelt. After a long moment, she spoke in a t

    Gabriel glared bitterly at Keira, likely suspecting that she had lost her nerve to shove me off the cliff.Looking at their distinct expressions, I suddenly laughed. "Did you two want me to go over the edge?"Both of them froze.Keira forced a tight smile. "Cody, what nonsense are you talking about?"I didn't move. Instead, I pulled my phone from my pocket and played the video recording of Gabriel in the study."Keira, you ungrateful bitch! You had me drain the brake fluid…" Gabriel's furious voice echoed across the desolate mountaintop.Keira's face transformed instantly as she whipped her head toward him.Terrified, Gabriel backed away repeatedly while pointing a finger at me as he shrieked, "You set me up?"I stared at them coldly. "Keira, you held onto the maintenance receipt as insurance. If things went south, you could pin the whole thing on Gabriel."And Gabriel, you stole it wanting to turn the tables on her. The two of you truly are a match made in hell."Just then,

    The next day, using the pain in my leg as an excuse, I had Keira take me to the hospital for a checkup.Taking advantage of the break while she went off to a department meeting, I put on a mask and hat, then hailed a cab straight to a private forensic testing agency I'd arranged to meet with.I handed the few white pills in the zip-lock bag to the analyst and requested an expedited chemical report.Two hours later, the report was in my hands.The results were clear. The pills contained zero active therapeutic ingredients for nerve recovery, and prolonged consumption would cause chronic liver and kidney failure.My knuckles turned white around the report. To think that the person sharing my bed could be so vile.When I returned to the hospital, I went straight to the pharmacy. After bribing an intern nurse, I obtained the system records of the medication Keira had prescribed for me on the day of my discharge.Under the prescriber column, it read "Gabriel".Keira was a department

    I stared dead into Gabriel's eyes and delivered each word with weight. "Yesterday, I caught a glimpse of her locking a massive accidental death insurance policy into her study drawer. The beneficiary isn't me."She even changed the drawer's lock code. She's guarding me like I'm a thief. Gab, do you think she's seeing someone else behind my back?"Gabriel nearly lost his grip on the plate he was holding.He forced a stiff, awkward smile. His tone was thick with disbelief and false comfort as he replied, "Cody, don't overthink things. Is being cooped up at home getting to you?"Dr. Walker is amazing to you. She'd practically give you her heart. Everyone at our hospital knows she's a model wife. Don't go hurting your relationship over a little paranoia."Yet in my mind, Gabriel's inner voice took a wild turn.[A massive insurance policy? Does Keira have another man besides me? Or is she hiding money from me? This won't do. I have to check it out tonight!]Playing right along, I let

    Keira glared at me, a chill flickering in her eyes.Suppressing the terror in my chest, I forced a helpless, bitter smile. "Keira, what are you doing back? I wanted to give you a surprise, but my legs just gave out. A pen dropped under the desk. When I tried to grab it, I fell…"The tension in Keira's shoulders melted instantly.She hurried over, and her voice regained its usual tenderness. "Why did you come home on your own without calling me first? What if you had hurt yourself even worse?"In my mind, I heard her exhale a long sigh of relief.[Thank God. I thought he found out. He didn't touch the drawer, right? Whatever. It doesn't matter anyway. The pills have been swapped out for days. It's a slow-acting toxin. Even if they run tests, it'll just look like organic organ failure.]My body went rigid, and my hands clenched into tight fists at my sides.I couldn't understand why, even if she had fallen out of love with me, she wanted me dead so badly.That evening, Gabriel sh
