After five years of preparing for pregnancy, I finally got pregnant after much hardship.

But on the same day, I was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer.

I was about to tell William the bad news, but I suddenly saw his childhood sweetheart posted an Instagram story.

[On the first day back home, the person I love the most came to pick me up. ]

The picture was a photo of them kissing passionately in bed.

I had a stomach attack on the spot and was admitted to the ICU.

When I woke up again, I desperately called William, but he said impatiently and irritably, “Ellen, why are you so stingy? Sydney finally returned to Mison, don't bother me no matter how big your problem is!”

I smiled bitterly and made an appointment for an abortion.

But later, I died and William saw my diary and he went crazy.

***

“William, can you come to the hospital to accompany me? I’m pregnant.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds and then William’s sarcastic voice came. “Ellen, you haven’t gotten pregnant for five years after marriage. How come you got pregnant as soon as Sydney returned to Mison? Do you have to use these unpresentable means? I said that Sydney and I are just friends!”

After saying that, William hung up the phone directly.

Even though I had expected it, I still felt heartbroken.

Looking at the bed photo in Sydney’s Instagram story, I silently signed the abortion surgery form.

After the operation, the doctor asked me to contact my family.

But I shook my head with a wry smile and walked back home tremblingly with my sick body.

Since my mother passed away, I had no family.

I thought William would be my support, but I found that I was always alone.

The anesthetic effect wore off and I felt a heart-wrenching pain in my abdomen.

I finally fell asleep, but was woken up by William’s irritable door opening.

“Ellen, can you stop being so suspicious? Sydney just returned to Mison and it doesn’t mean there will be anything between us!”

When he said this, he still had the familiar and disgusting rose scent that belonged to Sydney.

He didn’t notice that my face was too pale because of the miscarriage.

My eyes moved to William’s neck and saw the ambiguous kiss mark.

William froze and was about to explain something, but I got out of bed expressionlessly.

“I know, I’ll go make breakfast.”

My calm attitude made William stunned and he felt a little flustered for some reason.

The next second, I saw my legs soften and fell to the ground.

I happened to break the wishing bottle that Sydney gave him before going abroad and the folded paper stars inside were scattered all over the ground.

William’s face instantly darkened and he said angrily, “Ellen, you did it on purpose! You know this wishing bottle is very important to me! Why do you become a different person as soon as Sydney comes back? You are already old, can you be more sensible?”

William almost slapped me and I pushed him away. But because of this, my leg was left with a hidden disease. Now, after falling like this, I suddenly felt severe pain. But William didn’t care at all, he just blamed me for breaking Sydney’s things. I didn’t say a word, silently picked up the broken glass, but got scratched on my hand.

William sighed helplessl. “Leave it alone, I’ll clean it up. Ellen, I just hope you can be more generous and don’t vent your anger on Sydney.”

Yeah. Every word was for Sydney’s consideration.

If it were before, I would be so sad that I couldn’t sleep.

But William, I was going to die.

I didn’t care whether you loved it or not.

In the last period of my life, I would give you a gift that you would never forget.

I unfolded the diary and slowly wrote on it.

[I was diagnosed with pregnancy today, which was originally a very happy day, but I was also diagnosed with stomach cancer at the same time. I didn’t know how to tell William the bad news, but I saw him spending the night with Sydney.]

[So I aborted the child, concealed my illness and determined to die quietly alone.]

I believed William’s expression would be wonderful after seeing these contents.

I just wanted to use my suffering to make him feel guilty of what he did for the rest of his life.

After putting the diary away, William’s urging voice came. “Why isn’t today’s breakfast ready? Ellen, remember to add two pieces of cheesecake for me.”

After my meal, William disliked sweets the most.

But Sydney was neither sweet nor happy.

He always had all her preferences in mind.

After making the cake, I felt hungry and had a stomachache. I saw the milkshake on the table and took a sip.

When William saw it, he snatched the milkshake away and subconsciously pushed me.

“This is what I will give to Sydney later. Ellen, why do you even want to snatch this thing from her?”

I endured the stomachache and couldn’t help laughing sarcastically. “I have been married to you for five years, cooked for you for five years and just drank a sip of milkshake. How can you say this to me?”

William snorted coldly, “I just don’t like that you have to snatch everything from Sydney. After all, I’m already married to you, what else do you want?”

After that, he didn’t want to say another word and forcefully pulled me into the car.

When I arrived at the company, I saw Sydney wearing a pink short skirt at her workstation early.

The moment she saw William, she rushed toward him. “William, do I look good today?”

Their posture was familiar, like that of an intimate lover.

William subconsciously held Sydney’s slender waist and suddenly realized that I was still there and his body suddenly stiffened.

Only then did Sydney notice me. “Oh, we haven’t seen each other for many years! I was afraid that I didn’t tell you yesterday because of your hard work, but William came to pick me up! He gave me a big hug as soon as he saw me and his eyes were always glued to me. He is exactly the same as before!”

Yes, it was still the same as before.

As long as Sydney was here, William would never see me.

The familiar scent of roses came and my stomach suddenly felt a throbbing pain. I rushed to the trash can and retched.

“Ellen, what’s wrong with you?”

William was about to check on me, but Sydney’s eyes suddenly turned red.

“Ellen, although we had some misunderstandings before, you won’t be so unwelcoming to me, right? If you hate me so much, then I’ll leave!”

William frowned, immediately held Sydney’s wrist, looked at me dissatisfied and said, “Ellen, you are going too far. Sydney is your sister! Why are you so stingy?”

Trying to ignore the tingling pain in my stomach, I lowered my eyes and whispered, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to not welcome you. I’m just feeling a little uncomfortable.”

“You’ve always been as strong as an ox, so why are you so unwell? Ellen, you—”

Once Sydney was involved, William lost all reason.

The pity he had for me disappeared in an instant.

He continued to scold me, but Sydney finally interrupted with a sweet voice, “It’s okay, William. Ellen is not that kind of person. I know you feel sorry for me, but don’t blame her.”

William immediately shut his mouth.

But he still said coldly, “You remember to attend Sydney’s reception banquet tomorrow.”

After I got home, I took a handful of painkillers to stop the abdominal pain.

Then, I started to open my diary and record the grievances of the day.

After William sent Sydney home, the first thing he did was to say, “Don’t dress too showy tomorrow. After all, Sydney is the protagonist.”

I silently picked out a plain long dress and put it on. William nodded with satisfaction after seeing it.

The next day, I caught a glimpse of Sydney, who was as delicate and dazzling as a rose.

William’s eyes were already straight.

After coughing a few times, William came to his senses and awkwardly took me to a seat.

“I’m not telling you, Sydney. You abandoned William and went abroad because you thought he was poor. Why are you coming back now that he’s prosperous? I remember that your boyfriend abroad was bankrupt. Are you anxious to find a new home?”

Suddenly, a sharp and sarcastic voice sounded.

Sydney’s face turned pale instantly.

But I counted silently for three seconds.

Sure enough, William dropped a beer bottle to the man’s feet in the second.

“If you can’t speak, get out. Sydney is not that kind of person. She only went abroad because she was sick.”

I almost laughed at this lame excuse.

William believed in everything in order to forgive Sydney openly.

How could Sydney be sick?

In the past few years, even when she was abroad, she never forgot to call me one after another, cursing me as a bastard and a bitch.

“William, I’m fine. Don’t be angry.”

Only Sydney could calm the angry William.

Just like when William blew his classmate’s head off in order to support Sydney.

At that time, I cried and rushed up to him to stop, but he pushed me away viciously.

“Do you have the right to speak? Don’t think that just because you are Sydney’s sister, you can tell me what to do!”

Sydney patted William’s hand tenderly, then poured a full glass of wine and said to me, “Thank you all for taking care of William over the years. The one I want to thank most is Ellen, my sister. Come on, sister, let me toast you.”

Obviously, William was my husband, but she was thanking me for taking care of William for her.

The provocation was already so obvious, but William still looked at me steadily and said, “I’m toasting you a drink, just drink it.”

I felt sad and said lightly, “I don’t know how to drink.”

William’s face turned cold.

“Did you forget when you were hospitalized with stomach bleeding to stop me from drinking? Ellen, how many times have I told you not to target Sydney?”

I didn’t know from what standpoint William said this.

When I was hospitalized, he stood by my bedside with red eyes and said, “Ellen, I will never let you touch a drop of wine again. We will never suffer this injustice again!”

With a bitter smile, I picked up the glass and drank it all.

Almost as soon as the strong drink entered my throat, I felt a burning pain in my stomach.
