My Husband Declared Me Brain Dead, But His First Love Survived Her Brain Cancer novel Chapter 6

It was just my imagination. He wasn’t looking at me.

He was looking at her—Charlotte, who had just stepped out of the car.

"Seb, I heard you came back here again. I was so worried about you."

She casually took Sebastian’s hand, like they were a loving couple.

"Isabella still doesn’t want to see you, does she?"

I clenched my fists.

The person who had sabotaged the surgery and caused my death was her.

The one who dumped my body in the wilderness and buried me in a shallow grave—her.

And now she had the nerve to act innocent?

She knew perfectly well that Sebastian wasn’t going to find me here, but she still played along, stirring the pot with her fake concern.

Sebastian’s eyes darkened as he sighed.

"She hasn’t seen me in three years, and her temper’s only gotten worse."

"But it’s fine. I took her grandma. She’ll be desperate enough to come begging me for a meeting soon."

He knew I had lost my parents and grown up with just my grandma, and he had knelt down to propose to me with nothing but sincerity in his eyes.

"I’ll be your family from now on. I’ll always protect and take care of you."

But he had broken that promise.

The first person to hurt me after we married was him.

He was the one who sealed my fate.

Even in death, he refused to let me go. Now he was holding my grandma hostage to force me to come back.
