Husband Cheated and Died Chapter 1

In my previous life, Gary Payne, my husband, and his friends went fishing and drowned. I couldn't even find his body.

I was so sad that I was unconscious for a few days.

When I woke up and took care of Gary's affairs, I found that not only was he out in debt, but he had also colluded with Lucy Robson, my aunt, and Mona Davis, Lucy's daughter, to transfer all the money out of my company.

When the creditors came to my door, I had no choice but to sell everything.

Ten years later, I was devastated by life, and I ended up begging and picking up garbage on the street for a living. One day, I ran into Gary and Mona. Gary, who should have been dead for years, was passing by me in a luxury car with her.

I pounced on him and questioned him, but all I got was his cold reply.

"I wouldn't have married you if it weren't for your family's money. I faked my death because I wanna get rid of you!"

Mona sneered, "Tilda, you owe my family. I took back what belonged to me. That's all!"

After my rebirth, I returned to the day when Gary faked his death.

——

"Tilda, I'm sorry."

Lucy cried and said to me, "Gary is gone. You must take care of yourself. You are the only family I have left. Please don't be too sad. I don't wanna see anything happen to you!"

I was in a trance.

I was reborn and went back to the day when Gary faked his death!

Looking at Lucy, who was a total hypocrite, crying and comforting me, I was filled with resentment.

In my previous life, after my parents died in a car accident, Lucy was the person I trusted the most.

It had never occurred to me that she had been coveting my parents' inheritance for a long time.

Her daughter, Mona, had secretly been with Gary for a long time, and they had a son.

On the day I learned of Gary's death, I couldn't take it and passed out. In the next few days, I went on being unconscious. During that time, Lucy, Mona, and Gary transferred all the property under my name.

They also left me with a huge debt that tormented me for the next ten years.

I gritted my teeth so hard when I thought of the smug look on Mona's face when she said I owed her family.

When my parents died in that car accident, Henry Davis, my uncle, was also in the car, and he died, too.

After I got my parents' inheritance, I had never treated Mona and Lucy unfairly.

However, they always felt that I owed them and that my parents caused the death of Henry.

The most important thing was that they thought that they should also have a share of my parents' inheritance.

In my previous life, I was so stupid. I failed to see the true colors of those three.

Since I had been reborn, I wouldn't let the same thing happen to me.

I pretended to be sad, wiped my tears, and said, "Lucy, Gary and I love each other so much. It's too much for me!

"He was fine when he left in the morning. After half a day, he's dead?

"Even if he's dead, I wanna see his body. I will find it no matter how much it costs!"

Lucy wiped her tears and sighed, "Silly girl. Why?

"Gary went fishing with his friends and fell into the sea. Where can we find his body?

"Even if we do find his body, I'm afraid that the fish in the sea have already gnawed at his bones!"

I stubbornly insisted on, saying that otherwise, I wouldn't believe that he was gone.

Lucy frowned slightly and sighed again, "You're as stubborn as your parents.

"Fine. Leave it to me. I'll try my best to find his body.

"You're weak, and you haven't eaten for a day. I've made you some spaghetti. Have a few bites."

As she spoke, she brought me a plate of spaghetti from the kitchen.

Smelling the aroma, I was indeed hungry.

Even so, I shook my head and said, "Lucy, I don't have an appetite at all."

In my previous life, when I learned of Gary's death, I felt as if the world was falling apart.

During that time, Lucy stayed with me. One day, she asked me to eat some spaghetti, which caused me to be in a coma for a few days.

Now that I knew that she had secretly added something to the spaghetti, of course, I wouldn't go anywhere near it.

She was a little anxious and said, "Tilda, please!

"You are weak and have hypoglycemia. Not to mention that you haven't eaten for a day. What should I do if anything happens to you?

"Be good and take a few bites, OK? Don't fall sick. That's your main task for now!"

If I hadn't known what kind of person she was, I would have been deceived by her exquisite acting skills.

She came to me with the plate of spaghetti, and I raised my hand and knocked it over.

The spaghetti spilled on her arm. She shook it and exclaimed in pain.

I pretended to be apologetic and said, "Lucy, I didn't mean to. Are you OK?"

She pulled a long face and said grumpily, "If you don't wanna eat it, fine!

"Don't go out since you're so weak. I'll deal with Gary's affairs. I'll tell you when I find his body!

"By the way, the company seal and your personal seal are at home, right?

"I don't think you have time to deal with the company recently. Mona will take care of it for you.

"She'll give you the seals back after Gary's affairs are done."

Hearing her words, I sneered inwardly.

In my previous life, she took away my private seal and official seal while I was in a coma and then transferred the company's property.

I'd never be tricked by her again.

"No need."

I shook my head and sighed, "Mona is about to give birth. I don't wanna tire her out.

"Don't worry, Lucy. I won't collapse till I see Gary's body.

"By the way, Lucy, there have been a lot of people gossiping about Mona's out-of-wedlock birth. Who's the father anyway?

"If she gets abandoned, we must find him and hold him accountable. I've got connections. I promise that we'll ruin his reputation after we find him!"

Lucy panicked.

She looked away and said with a frown, "I don't know what Mona is thinking. I asked her many times, but she never told me!

"Well, don't worry about it for now. Take care of yourself.

"I'll send someone to find Gary's body as soon as possible. Let's make it clear. Be prepared. Make sure it's not gonna be too much for you to deal with.

"I might as well die if anything happens to you!"

After getting my guarantee, she hurried out of my place.

Watching her leave, I sneered and picked up the phone to call a private detective.
