While I Was Dying, My Husband Was With The Love Of His Life Chapter 1

I felt pain all over my body. It hurt so much. “Hng,” I winced in pain as the kidnapper stepped his foot on my hand.

“Darn it, why the heck isn't he picking it up?”

“We got the right one, right?”

My heart throbbed with pain. I had no idea if I wanted Ash to pick the phone or not. A part of me wished that he'd pick it up. But another part of me wished that he wouldn't pick it up, and get into trouble.

“Argh!” my scream became louder as he pulled my hair.

“Say, why isn't he picking it up?”

I whimpered as pain kicked in. “How would I know why he isn't picking it up?”

“He either picks it up within ten minutes, or just be clear that you won't be alive after these ten minutes, if he doesn't pick it up.” He said, throwing my phone back at me.

My lips parted as I rushed to pick up the phone. My hands trembled as I called him again. There was no answer. This continued for seven minutes.

They were already losing their patience, and even they could understand that Ash didn't care for me. If he did, he would've picked up my phone seeing me ring so many times, no matter how busy he was. Tears streamed down my face.

‘Just pick it up please, Ash. Please.’ I begged, inwardly.

I was losing all my hope, but I still continued to dial him. I just wanted him to pick it up.

Ten minutes were almost up, and when I lost all my hope that he wasn't going to pick it up, he picked it.

“Ash!” I screamed, my lips trembling. “Please, please come here… Otherwise, I'll die. Please, Ash…”

“Shut up, Astrid. How dare you threaten me? Don't you know that I don't pick up calls at work, and 59 missed calls? Are you crazy?”

“Ash, please…” I begged, my heart throbbing with pain. I just needed him to listen to me. “I am kid—”

Before I could complete the sentence, I heard a familiar voice from the back.

“Thank you, Ash, for being here.”

My heart dropped listening to the voice. It was Kate.

My lips continued to tremble as I continued to hear them.

“Look at the baby.”

“He is as cute as you. He will definitely look like you when he grows up.”

“I hope so, Ash. Thank you for being here. And, sorry for calling you suddenly. I didn't know whom to call when I went through labour.”

“That's fine, Kate. You know that I'm always here for you.”

“But you got so many calls during this time. You should check it out.”

“Don't worry, those are unimportant.”

“Are you sure? I think I heard Astrid’s voice though. It seemed urgent.”

“Don't worry, it's really not important.”

“You should still check it out once.”

“Okay, give me a minute.”

My grasp around the phone tightened. No words could come out of the mouth.

Soon, Ash realised that the phone was still on, and snorted. “Look, Kate just gave birth, and I need to take care of her. I don't have time to play your games.”

My lips trembled as I muttered slowly. “Ash, I'll really die…”

“Then, die. Don't worry, I won't come to your funeral.”

As he said it, he cut the phone.

My hands trembled as I rang the phone again but he had already blocked my number.

Did these three years mean nothing to him? All these years, he still loved Kate. He even went to see her give birth to a child that wasn't even his.

Then, why did he ask to marry me?

Tears streamed down my face as I threw the phone away in anger.

Four years of love. I have loved him since the day my brother introduced him to me. But I never asked him for anything more because I knew that Kate was in his heart. However, he was the one who asked me to marry him when Kate got married to someone else.

We were married for three years. Was this too selfish of me to ask him to come save me? Was I too selfish to want him to look back at me, and what I did for him?

“So, what should we do with this bitch?”

“What else? Let's just have some fun with her, and then kill her.”

“Tsk, we went through all of this trouble just for it to end up like this.”

As they approached me, I remained frozen.

“Stop it, bastards!”

I let out a bitter smile as my consciousness faded away. He had come to save me.

“Astrid, hang in there!”

My tears streamed down as I heard him. I'm sorry…
