After My Drowning Death for the Wedding Ring,My Wife's MadnessChapter 1
My wife invited me to the aquarium, and I was overjoyed.
I spent a fortune on a diamond ring, planning to surprise her.
Who would have thought that after her boss casually remarked, "This diamond ring looks like one of those 9.99 dollars deals with free shipping from Amazon," she would immediately throw the ring into the mermaid performance pool?
I dived into the water to search for it, but my wife and her boss deliberately teased me, refusing to let me back on land.
Exhausted, I desperately begged them for help, only to see the back of my boss holding my wife as they walked away.
I died, but she went mad.
***
I died, in the dreamy and fantastical mermaid performance pool.
Exhausted, I sank to the bottom of the water. As my consciousness gradually detached from my body, I saw myself drift behind an artificial rock formation, hidden from plain sight.
Good, at least I wouldn't scare anyone.
When my awareness returned, I found myself following my wife, now just a ghostly presence.
She was affectionately holding her boss's arm, speaking sweetly.
"Samuel, where should we go for dinner later?"
"Seeing that useless fool, Patrick, floundering in the water like that—did it make you feel any better?"
A few words from Janet and Samuel sent chills down my spine.
Even colder than when I had sunk into the water, losing consciousness.
So, everything today was just to make her boss a little happier?
No wonder she lowered herself to call me today, saying.
"Patrick, today is our seventh wedding anniversary. I'll give you ten minutes to get to my workplace so we can go on a date."
Her tone was still harsh, but there were hints of softness.
I thought she had changed, but it was just to deceive me and please her beloved boss?!
Samuel nodded in satisfaction, a malicious smile gleaming in his eyes.
"Janet, you know, I was just too jealous back then. If it weren't for that…how could someone like Patrick ever be worthy of marrying you?"
At the mention of my name, a look of disgust and disdain flashed across Janet's face, and she mercilessly belittled me.
"Ugh! Don't mention him. He's just a worthless fool! I've been married to him for seven years, and when I told him that past events had left me traumatized and I didn't want to…you know…he actually believed me!"
