He Abandoned His Daughter For Another Woman, Now He is Crazy

Just because my daughter soiled another child’s dress, my husband immediately pushed her into the pool. Seeing my daughter choking and suffocating on water, I howled and fell to my knees begging for mercy.

“The child can not swim. It will leave a shadow, my hubby. She is your own daughter, you know?”

My husband, however, said indifferently without the slightest concern for his daughter, “Because you spoiled the child, that's why she became impolite like this. You are completely incompetent as a mother. From now on, you are not allowed to interfere in this child's education anymore.”

My daughter had been in the water for more than ten hours. She was in a coma because her lungs were filled with water.

At this time, I guarded the emergency room in fear and trembling. Stella Carpenter came to me. She was showing off the newly received necklace in front of me. I didn't respond at all.

When the old man arrived, I collapsed at his feet in tears and said, “I have paid off what I owe to the Ethelbert Family, let me and my daughter go...”

——

The five-year-old daughter was lying in the resuscitation bed. Her little face was a terrible greenish-purple colour. The rise and fall of her chest were so weak that it could not be seen. She was still murmuring unconsciously in her coma:

“Mom, it's so cold. Please, help me…”

I couldn't hold back any longer at this moment. Then I fell to my knees in front of the emergency room door. I was crying my heart out.

Three hours ago, my daughter was playing in the swimming pool at home when she accidentally splashed water on Catalina Reverie's dress.

That incident immediately made Catalina push her into the water to teach her a lesson. When I heard the sound and rushed over, my daughter's nasal cavity was already full of water.

My cell phone vibrated in my pocket. It was a message from my husband, Geoffrey Ethelbert.

Geoffrey: [I'm not going back tonight. I have a social gathering.]

I stared at my phone screen for a while and suddenly burst out laughing. As I laughed, tears wet the screen.

I then opened my Instagram and saw Catalina's latest news, which she posted ten minutes ago. Catalina uploaded a status update containing a photo.

From the photo, it appears that her location at that time was in a hotel. In the photo, both hands were holding each other with the caption 'Long lost time, now meet again.'

While I was full of fear at the emergency room door, the two of them were making out in the hotel. As if afraid I wouldn't be able to see it, she even videotaped them kissing. She then deliberately sent it to me privately.

I felt that it was a really embarrassing and inappropriate thing as an adult. In the past, I might have questioned my husband about the video. But now, I no longer have the energy to care about those things. I didn't want to interfere anymore.

The old man was still persuading me, “Xaviera, Geoffrey is basically not a man who is easily tempted to cheat. He's just a little mischievous and likes a challenge. I'll discipline him later. Don't worry about anything, Xaviera. Believe that I only recognize you as a daughter-in-law in this Ethelbert Family.”

I shook my head with a bitter smile. Just as I was about to say something, the door of the emergency room opened. The attending doctor walked out and took off his mask.

“Mrs. Xaviera, we've done all we can.”

I was silent for a moment after hearing the doctor's words. Without realizing it, I was now standing in the morgue. I gently caressed my daughter's small face which now looked cold.

Finally, I couldn't hold on any longer. My eyes darkened. I then lost consciousness.

When I woke up, the old man was standing by my bedside. He looked at me with a heartbroken expression on his face.

I tried to sit on the bed this time. I then looked at the face of the Ethelbert Family elder, Theodore Ethelbert.

I said in a very calm voice to him, “Grandpa, let me go. I beg you.”

The old man frowned. “Don't talk nonsense, Xaviera. I'll deal with that asshole Geoffrey. You should focus on your health first and…”

I said nothing. I immediately showed her the passionate video my husband had made from my cell phone.

In the video, it was clear that Geoffrey and Catalina were lying together on a large bed in the hotel. The time stamp on the video showed that at that moment my daughter and Geoffrey were experiencing the sacrament of death.

The old man's face changed instantly. I could tell he was in shock and couldn't believe the video I'd shown him. He accidentally dropped his walking stick on the floor with a bang.

He was silent for a moment, then finally spoke to me, “Let's settle the matter of your daughter first, Xaviera. Then we'll talk about other things later, okay?”

I sighed, but he still wouldn't let me go. The old man called the funeral home to take care of the funeral arrangements. This kept them busy for a long time.

***

It was late at night when I tried to drag my tired body back to the villa. When I arrived, I heard faint voices from the master bedroom. They were the moans of Catalina making love to my husband. The sounds they made were as overwhelming as salt sprinkled on my bleeding wounds. I walked straight to the bathroom.
