The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 250

I listened as the sounds outside the door gradually faded into the distance. As I watched the lights outside the window dim one by one, I felt the heaviness in my chest finally loosen, if only a little.

Back then, Joshua had seemed a savior to me. As long as he reached out to Abigail, she would have immediately left me and returned to his side.

I was grateful for Joshua's repeated "rescues". Otherwise, I truly wouldn't have known how to navigate my relationship with Abigail.

I had grown so accustomed to her insults and torment that her sudden tenderness brought me not joy or warmth, but overwhelming dread.

I had no idea what identity or demeanor I should adopt when facing Abigail, and even less of an idea of what our ultimate outcome would be.

All I wished for was for Abigail to one day realize what was truly in her heart. I hoped she could stop tormenting herself and others. This was painful for both of us.

I then ate the food I had cooked for myself, feeling a rare sense of ease. Without Abigail by my side, it was as if I had returned to the days before we started dating. I was free and unburdened, able to do whatever I pleased without worrying about anyone else's mood.

Just as I was done eating and was about to do the dishes, my phone rang. The moment I heard the ringtone, my heart raced. I was terrified that it was Abigail calling.

Hadn't she just left? Could she really have come up with a new way to torment me so soon?

With anxiety gripping me, I glanced at the caller ID and saw George's name.

George had arranged to transfer me to the hospital where I frequently stayed, given how serious my condition was.

Lana was at that hospital too, and the specialists Abigail had brought in were temporarily there as external consultants performing surgeries.
