Chapter 3

For some reason, after that day, I could no longer leave Lucas's side.

I could only float within his range of activity.

Perhaps my hatred was too intense, Lucas would occasionally unconsciously turn his head to look in my direction.

"Was that child properly buried?"

"Don't worry, Huai. I've already found a place with excellent feng shui, and even invited a master to perform rites. It's enough to do right by him for coming here."

After saying this, Amber gently leaned on Lucas's shoulder and cried mournfully:

"It's just a pity for my Henry, who has been fighting with illness for so many years. Now he's finally overcome his suffering."

"Huai, we'll be happy as a family of three from now on, right?"

This time, Lucas rarely didn't go along with Amber, and spoke on his own:

"After all, we owe that child. In the future, on holidays, you should burn more paper money for him."

A flash of impatience crossed Amber's eyes, but she still pretended to comply.

"Alright, I'll do as you say."

Lucas responded, then asked: "How is... Zoe? She didn't make a fuss this time?"

Amber's face went blank for a moment, then she quickly said:

"You know Youyou's temperament. So after she woke up, no one dared to tell her about the child."

Observing Lucas's expression, Amber tentatively said:

"She did shout about wanting a divorce a few times after waking up. But Henry's condition wasn't good at the time, so I forgot to tell you."

Sure enough, hearing Amber's words, Lucas's face, which had shown some guilt, once again showed anger.

"Why does she think she can force me to marry her when she wants, and I have to obediently listen to her arrangements when she wants a divorce?"

He picked up his phone, ignoring Amber's attempts to stop him, and strode out of the ward.

I was forced to follow him once again to the place where I had died tragically.

Watching Lucas stumble around the obstetrics department like a headless fly.

He kept grabbing doctors and nurses in the corridor asking: "Which ward is Zoe in?"

Everyone looked at him with confusion, as if looking at a mental patient, saying there was no patient called Zoe here.

Lucas felt uncomfortable being looked at like this, and turned to leave with a frustrated face.

Watching Lucas's back as he left without hesitation, one of the young nurses who had been stopped suddenly slapped her forehead, finally remembering where she had heard the name "Zoe".

She angrily called out to Lucas's back:

"Pah! What a scumbag! His wife died from massive bleeding, two lives lost, and he only comes to the hospital to look for her after the seventh day of mourning. What kind of person is he!"

Hearing the young nurse's words, Lucas suddenly turned back.

His eyes were as sharp as swords, shooting towards the nurse who had spoken: "What did you say? Say again who died?"

The young nurse, seeing Lucas's fierce look, was frightened.

But she still stood up, trembling as she said:

"It's that Zoe, she died from difficult labor that night. Her husband couldn't be contacted, in the end it was her sister who contacted the crematorium, and she was directly cremated."

"They didn't even notify anyone else to see her one last time."
