Unfortunately, I didn't know that my husband was the real culprit who made my life fall into darkness. The day Benedict married me, he only held a family banquet.
My mother-in-law put the heirloom jade bracelet on my hand at that moment. She then said to me, “I know my son who has wronged you. I will let him spend the rest of his life making it up to you! If you regret marrying him in the future, don’t worry, Rebecca, I will help you leave, okay?”
I thought the sorry in her mouth was about Benedict coaxing me to donate my kidney. She also laughed and said that when she knew her son married me, it was the happiest thing in her life.
I really knew that the truth was too cruel. For the whole five years, I had not remembered the slightest. Now that my son was dead, the truth was nakedly presented.
My mother-in-law hugged Eugene tightly. She then spoke with shivering lips, “Rebecca, it was my fault. I was wrong, Rebecca. I thought that Adelaide had stolen your identity and wouldn't show up again after helping her mom take revenge.”
After hearing Liliana’s words, my heart already had been numbed by the pain. At this moment, once again the shock wave turned the situation upside down. Without waiting for me to open my mouth to ask, my mother-in-law took out her cell phone to call her lovely son, Benedict.
It was a shame that what we heard was not something pleasant to hear. From the other end came Adelaide’s coquettish voice and said, “Benedict, please be gentle. I can't bear it.”
The sound of love between a man and a woman made my mother-in-law so angry. It made her curse them.
Benedict’s activity was ruined at this time. He then said impatiently with a hoarse voice, “Mom, can you please stop spoiling our fun? Today is the wedding day of Adelaide and me. If you still want to hold grandchildren, stop it. Please, don’t make a fuss.”
The mother-in-law replied angrily, “Your son, Eugene is dead! You get your ass to the hospital immediately!”
Benedict immediately snorted with laughter, “Mom, you even made up this kind of lie in order to trick me into going back, right? Aren't you afraid that the spell will really come true?”
At that moment I couldn't say anything. I never thought that Benedict couldn’t believe her mom’s words.
