Billionaire’s second wife

Right now, he was lying motionless on the bed. Next to it is a full range of equipment to monitor the current state of the body. An infusion tube connects directly from the fluid tank to the arm. That was exactly what Emma was aiming for. Without further delay, she stepped forward, quickly taking from her pocket the cylinder she had prepared in advance at home, filled with a golden, liquid. Without any conscience, without shaking her hands, Emma decisively injected into the tube, the drug she was still using every day to make Alden obey her manipulation. When she finished, Emma smiled proudly, thinking about tomorrow, when Alden woke up, listened to her words, and dealt with her mother-in-law and brother-in-law, making her happy and gloating. Finished, Emma scurried away lest she is discovered. Emma left just like that, satisfied with the succession plan.

Tonight she could sleep peacefully, looking forward to tomorrow, when dawn awoke. Everything will be right. With Alden as a powerful pawn in the palm of her hand, Emma is not afraid of anything, not even the marriage contract. Alden will definitely stand up against his family, and protect her. But Emma forgot that sometimes things turn out completely different from the script she drafted. God always likes to give surprises to all, the honest as well as the dishonest.

…

The new day had come, and Emma had just woken up excited, beautifully prepared to head to the hospital, hoping that Alden would wake up. But when she decided to leave the house, she was suddenly wise to call Lily, to investigate the situation at the hospital.

After hearing the news, Emma angrily threw the phone on the floor. Damn it! Really want to go crazy. Emma’s plan fell apart in an instant when Lily informed Alden that Alden had woken up this morning, and had been asked by his family to leave the hospital immediately. But instead of going home to meet his beloved wife, who is constantly insecure and worried, he goes back to his parents’ house.

Emma didn’t understand, it was clear that last night she had successfully raided Alden’s room and injected him with a large dose so that Alden would only need to wake up to be unconscious. At that time, Emma will appear as a god, able to direct his attention, as well as he will react to what she says and does.

Oh, what a bore, stolen joy on a peaceful morning. Emma was now restless, frightened to the point of panic.

In fact, it was just a rumor Gavin spread to distract Emma. He did it because he wanted to protect his brother from Emma’s harassment. Gavin knew for sure that she was being bitter, deserving of the cunning, malicious kind. Emma did not expect that, that night when she reached out, easily completing her plan, it was all arranged by Gavin. He had taken precautions, so basically, the injection of poison on Alden had failed. He even prepared how to deal with her in the future. For now, let’s just worry about Alden getting excited again, and Emma let it go. Not running away from Gavin, so no need to worry.

Alden was taken and in a special room prepared by his brother. Alden, as mentioned, has just undergone a complete makeover. Literally and figuratively. It is often said that you can change your skin, you can change your blood. His condition is now temporarily generalized that his right shoulder was dislocated due to an accident, and his head was severely impacted, causing temporary inactivity.

Needless to say, after waking up from a deep sleep for two days, Alden found himself surrounded by darkness, without any light, and immediately felt afraid. Gavin had to try his best to reassure him before he could calm down and stop being agitated. After hearing Gavin talk about his condition, Alden understood that he couldn’t see the light for a while. Of course, there were things Gavin didn’t want Alden to know, so he hid. It was thought that after a moment of indignation, he would not be able to accept the truth and force the surgery to regain his sight soon to take place. Unexpectedly, Alden made a decision that stunned Gavin. He said he didn’t want to see the scary world anymore.

It seems Alden is acting too much, is it necessary to ruin his life because of a woman? The truth is not only that. This was a matter of belief, which was mistakenly thought of as unimportant but to Alden, it felt like an obsession. It was because he didn’t like the world of deception that he lived freely before, regardless of life. By the time Emma appeared, he thought he had found his faith. Who would have thought she was just a liar like many people who hurt him before. Of course, he had such thoughts, because he did not know that he was being manipulated by hypnotic drugs.

Currently, he is reflecting on the tragedy of his life. When Alden showed signs of regaining consciousness, Gavin and his father were in the room, constantly concerned, and worried, waiting for him to fully awaken. Alden hoped to see Emma, but then remembered his misfortune and fell into a pensive mood.

“Remember your small, cunning, lying wife?”

Gavin’s voice broke the silence that Alden was trying to bury himself in.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Honestly, Alden didn’t want to repeat the painful incident, but he couldn’t hide it forever. Either way, he had to face his own mistakes.

“I really didn’t expect it.” Alden’s voice was bitter: “How can things be like this? I never treated her badly. She has everything that people wish for.”

“Women’s hearts are inherently deep, especially ambitious women who want luxury and wealth, but are lazy.” Gavin expressed his opinion: “But not everyone is like that, some are terrible, on the contrary, there are also some outstanding.”

“I just don’t understand why in the world there are thousands of women, I fall in love with someone as bad as Emma?” Alden lamented, “Am I the unlucky one?”

“Don’t blame all tragedies on fate.” Gavin reprimanded: “Everything in the world happens for a reason. For me, maybe it’s a valuable lesson, for me to learn how to see the real world more clearly. And maybe…”

Gavin sighed, letting go of the last sentence.

“What can be done?” Alden turned his attention to his brother: “Why me?”

“A punishment for the sins I committed in the past.” Gavin considered before speaking.

“Does that mean you deserve this unhappy ending?” Alden bitterly concluded: “Is that what you mean?”

“Don’t think of things in such a negative way.” Gavin comforted me.

“But what do you tell me to think?” Alden shouted excitedly: “I know I made a mistake in the past, but I soon gave up everything to start over. Why is God still treating me like this?”

Alden couldn’t help but cry. As a man who sheds tears, it is enough to see how great the pain is.

Knowing that there is nothing that can be done to soothe the broken heart, the only thing is to be quiet, wait for the other person to express the pain without words, and then continue the conversation.
