All Chapters of Getting Remarried Was My Greatest Mistake: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

When I got home, it felt like I was coughing my lungs out.Cheap painkillers could last four hours. I took three pills a day.That was enough to hold on until I paid off the remaining cost of the grave beside my adoptive mother's.I rode too fast today. My stomach ached like a dull knife was turning inside. I struggled to reach for the medicine bottle.The door opened.Caitlyn stood there. She looked around the room with a frown on her face."Even if you want to put on an act, there's no need to make yourself suffer like this."What happened back then was complicated. I had no other choice."Mason saved my life. He donated one of his kidneys to me."I suddenly looked up. It sounded like the funniest joke in the world. I was about to speak.The next second, someone peeked out from behind her.My heart jolted. It was Nelly Sheppard.It had been five years.The day she was born, she could barely breathe.After leaving the hospital, I went to every church in the city and pray

My body moved before my mind could react.I lunged at Mason and grabbed him by his throat."How dare you? She was your biological mother!"Mason leaned against the wall. His eyes turned red as he laughed."So what if we were switched at birth? I was born to be rich. Why should she come looking for me? Who does she think she is?"Ian, anyone who treated you well deserved to die."Warm liquid gushed out from my nose.It seemed I didn't have much time left.Fine. I'd take someone down with me.My face was violently slapped to the side. I crashed into the wall.Caitlyn stood where she was. Slowly, she lowered her hand."Are you done?"Mason's health was ruined because he saved me. You only spent a few years in prison for him. What exactly are you complaining about?"You'll always be my husband. With that title, who would dare say anything to you?"She paused before gently wiping the blood from the corner of my mouth with her fingertip. Her voice softened."Mason took care of

The lights in the operating room were still on.Caitlyn leaned against the wall. Her fingers subconsciously rubbed against the edge of her sleeve.Her heartbeat suddenly went out of control."Get all of Ian's medical records. Bring the doctor who performed my surgery back then."She suddenly recalled some things.She recalled how I coughed up blood every time the seasons changed, but she had never asked why.She recalled how every time she brought up having another child, I would open my mouth, sigh, and refuse.Now she knew why.Back then, I wanted to say, 'The person who saved you was me. I can't have another child anymore. I'm in so much pain,' but I never said anything.That was because Mason had taken the chance first. He held onto fake medical reports while pretending to be her savior.She believed him.Footsteps came from the end of the hallway.Dr. Cameron, who had performed the surgery years ago, was dragged over. He was still wearing pajamas under his white coat.

I floated beneath the ceiling and looked down at the body lying on the operating table.It looked pale, thin, and lifeless.A white sheet was placed over the body up to the chin, revealing only a face full of scars.I laughed bitterly. In the end, I still hadn't saved enough money for the grave beside my adoptive mother's.The hospital corridor at midnight was quiet like a cemetery.I tried to pass through the window and leave, but something held me back. I could only drift around above the ward.Then I saw Caitlyn.She walked over quickly. Her shirt was wrinkled, and her eyes were bloodshot. There was a dried blood mark on her cheekbone.This wasn't the calm and elegant Caitlyn I knew. Every time she showed this expression, it was because of Mason. She stopped in front of the ward door for a moment. She then walked straight toward me.She passed through my body.She froze. She suddenly turned around and looked at the empty space behind her. She raised her hand and looked at
