The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 999

"When she transferred back from Nexus Prime, her old school didn't even want to let her go. It took quite an effort to get her enrolled here."

"Niki…" Alexander repeated the name, his body stiffening as if struck by a physical blow. Niki. His daughter had changed her last name.

From now on, she was no longer a child of the Davidson family but a daughter of the Crawford family.

In that moment, his heart felt like it had been squeezed by an invisible hand, a raw, sharp pain. He thought back to the days he spent with Niki, her sweet, childish voice calling him 'Daddy,' the way she would throw herself into his arms. The memories played like a film in his mind, and his eyes instantly grew hot. He finally understood. Danielle truly wanted to draw a clear line between them, so much so that she had even changed their daughter's family name. And her relationship with Gian… it didn't seem like an act at all.

The principal was still rambling on, praising Niki's intelligence and maturity, but Alexander didn't hear a word. The name 'Niki Crawford' was the only thing in his mind, a sharp thorn twisting in his heart.

He stood up. "I see." Without waiting for a response, he strode out of the office and left the school.

Sitting in his car, Alexander watched the children coming and going at the school gate. He took a deep breath, his body trembling. He couldn't control the tide of emotions washing over him, a heavy pressure building in his chest. His hands shook as he took out his medication and swallowed a pill. He slumped over the steering wheel, taking a long time to steady himself.

Alexander sat in his car, an unlit cigarette between his fingers, his gaze hollow as he stared at the school gate. The principal's words still echoed in his ears.

Just then, a familiar car pulled up nearby. Gian and Danielle got out. Danielle was wearing a simple white dress, her hair falling loosely over her shoulders, a gentle smile on her face. Gian stood beside her, holding a pink backpack, clearly there to pick up Niki.
