The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 1642

Angeline threw caution to the wind and bit her wrist.

It would be great if she died. Everything would end once she died.

Jay heard an unusual noise coming from the bedroom, and although it sounded very faint, he still walked toward the bedroom with great vigilance.

The doors and windows were permanently sealed, and all the sharp edges and corners had been wrapped with foam corner guards, hence logically speaking, the house was extremely safe. That was why Jay was quite calm at first.

As soon as he pushed the bedroom door open though, Jay caught a whiff of blood and was instantly on tenterhooks.

He rushed to the bed and uncovered Angeline's blanket, only to see that Angeline had badly mangled her own wrist.

Jay could feel his heart sinking into a bottomless abyss. It tried to climb up desperately but to no avail. Like a trapped beast, he felt immense hopelessness like never before.

He took Angeline into his arms and examined her wounds carefully with tears in his eyes. Fortunately, she did not rupture her aorta veins as her bite did not go too deep and it was all merely superficial wounds.

Jay felt as though his throat was stuffed with lead. His eagle eyes were bloodshot with tears as he blamed himself. “Do you hate it that much when I hold you? What should I do to make you forgive me, Angeline?”

He thought Angeline’s suicide attempt was triggered by his approaching her earlier. He remembered the doctor's instructions clearly: ‘You are now a risk factor to her…’

Jay had never felt so hopeless as he felt right now. "I know you hate me, but Angeline, I don’t feel at ease placing you under someone else’s care. Please do it for me and stay beside me. I will spend the rest of my life loving you and will only listen to you. Please stop running away from me, okay?”

Angeline curled up in his arms, and without realizing it, she had closed her eyes and fallen asleep peacefully.

Jay found the first aid kit and gently applied the ointment to her wounds.
