Reborn: When I Drown Back novel Chapter 1

"Mr. Pascall, your wife was underwater for too long, causing severe lack of oxygen to her brain, and with her head hitting the rocks, there's blood clotting, I'm afraid she may never wake up again."

The man by the hospital bed was extremely handsome and serious.

He sat in a wheelchair, gripping the armrests with his thin lips tightly pursed.

He stared at the unconscious woman.

It had been three days since she had been in a coma, and if she didn't wake up soon...

"Nydia, if you wake up, I can divorce you." His deep voice was filled with a heavy sense of repression.

However, as soon as his voice fell, the woman on the bed suddenly opened her eyes.

As her pupils moved, the confusion in Nydia Wagner's eyes dissipated. When she saw the man, she excitedly lunged towards him.

"Jesse, you're still alive?!"

She clearly remembered that in the last moment of the explosion, Jesse Pascall pushed her out of the cave filled with explosives, but he didn't make it out.

How could he still be here? Where was this?

Before she could finish her sentence, she was violently pushed away by a strong force, hitting the sturdy bed frame, and the IV needle on the back of her hand was yanked out, causing blood to splatter.

"Nydia! How dare you lie to me!" Jesse's eyebrows furrowed with anger, and he exuded an intimidating coldness. He suppressed his rage and asked the doctor, "Is this what you meant by never waking up again?!"

The doctor was also at a loss, how could she suddenly wake up? "Let me examine your wife first."

"Get out!" Jesse shouted, and the trembling doctor retreated.

He unbuttoned his shirt collar, and his handsome face was now covered in gloom.

"Nydia, you really went to great lengths to divorce me!"

"Divorce? Jesse, what are you talking about?"

Nydia widened her eyes in shock, looking around at the familiar surroundings.

Hospital, divorce, Jesse alive...

Could it be that she was dreaming?! She pinched herself in disbelief.

But it hurt, this was not a dream. Why was he standing here unscathed?

Nydia was full of doubts, what was going on? Did someone save him?

"Are you pretending to be dumb now?" In Jesse's eyes, Nydia's confusion was just an act. He leaned forward, pinching Nydia's chin and forcing her to meet his gaze.

His cold eyes were now filled with sadness and exhaustion. "Nydia, even if you hate me and want to divorce me, how could you harm Tavish? He's your own son!"

A familiar buzz and tone flooded Nydia's mind, bringing back a flood of memories!

Her child, her son! She had somehow gone back to the day she and Tavish fell into the water a year ago! Oh my god, her wish had been granted!
