Seven Years of Marriage with Jake

But reality often doesn't go as planned.

It didn't develop in the direction they hoped.

Emily still didn't answer in the end.

Jake completely broke down.

After the last call was rejected, he suddenly raised his phone and smashed it on the ground in front of everyone.

The screen shattered into pieces, and his eyes were bloodshot with anger.

Just like when he attacked me in my past life.

I instinctively felt fear and couldn't help but take a step back.

I clutched my phone in my hand, ready to call the police at any moment.

Just as he was about to speak, Mr. Larson suddenly pushed the door open and came in.

Jake gave me a venomous look and could only leave in a sorry state.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I hurriedly packed my things and was discharged from the hospital.

I found a new place to live.

But before I could move, I heard the news that Jake had been arrested.

Because of a murder case.

The deceased was Emily.

She died at home.

I inquired and learned that Jake went straight to Emily's place after leaving the hospital that day.

He caught her packing her bags and trying to flee the country.

He grabbed her and questioned her why she wouldn't testify for him.

He dragged her towards the door as he spoke.

But Emily said without hesitation that she didn't want to be implicated by him.

It was too late now, nothing could clear his name.

If she came forward, not only would she not be able to save him, but she would also be dragged down with him.

Jake was already on the verge of collapse at that time.

Of course, he wouldn't let her go.

He only angrily questioned her, saying that she had clearly said that she would die without him.

But Emily mocked him to his face.

Her mental illness diagnosis was fake, and he actually believed it.

If she hadn't been unable to stay abroad any longer and heard that he had joined a big hospital, she wouldn't have come back.

But she didn't expect that Jake couldn't even handle his own family matters.

He dragged on a divorce for seven years.

In the end, she got nothing and wasted seven years of her life.

These words completely shattered Jake's last shred of reason.

He reached out and strangled Emily's neck, watching her struggle desperately in front of him.

He watched her die in front of him.

Then he dragged her body and turned himself in to the police.

The hospital finally issued an announcement online, firing him.

Before going to prison, he left me a signed divorce agreement.

He said that I had lost a child for him after all.

He said he was ashamed of me in this life.

But he would never know, not just in this life.

What he owed me in his past life could never be repaid.

I took the divorce agreement and went home.

When my body recovered, I sold the house.

I moved to another city to live.

I never wanted to set foot in this place full of pain and memories again in my life.
