I couldn't stand it for a moment. I ran downstairs crazily and took a taxi to the hospital to look for Konner.

Before I make up my mind to break up with him, I must get my daughter back.

However, after looking around the ward, I didn't see Konner.

"You're not in the hospital. Where did you go?"

I questioned him on the phone. A delicate young voice came from the line and soon disappeared.

He cleared his throat and replied, "Roselyn, I'm at the old house to arrange something. You don't have to come to me."

Before I could finish my question, he hung up the phone.

It was the right time for him to go to the hospital for chemotherapy. I went to the nurse in the ward and asked, "When did the patient in room No. 8 leave?"

The nurse looked up at me strangely, shook her head, and left.

We had been together for eight years, but Konner had never told me where his house was.

He said that his parents didn't approve of us being together and didn't want us to disturb them, so we just had to care about our own lives.

When I thought about it at the moment, I just felt a chill all over.

He lied to me for eight years.

I was too tired, so I leaned against the bed and waited for Konner to come back, but I fell asleep in a daze.

I had a dream.

I dreamed of entering another parallel world.

Konner died at the end of the eighth year after our marriage. His company went bankrupt, and even the house he left for me and our daughter was auctioned off by the court.

He didn't tell me where our daughter was before he died, so I spent the rest of my life looking for her.

I finally found the Ramsey's house, but my daughter Averie Ramsey didn't know me. She stood gracefully beside Elyse and said that Elyse was her mother.

I left in despair, but when I was teaching in a mountainous area, I happened to meet Konner, who I hadn't seen for many years and should have died.

He drove a luxury car to travel with a beautiful girl with curly hair sitting in the passenger seat and a naughty son in the back seat.

While I was staring at him in disbelief, he saw me too.

He sneered at first glance. "That woman is just a simp. I'm tired of her. As expected, she can only lead such a bad life without me."

I wanted to catch up with him and ask him if he was Konner and why he lied to me.

However, the woman with curly hair looked at me contemptuously and scolded me.

"What a silly woman. Back then, Konner didn't die. He just meant to get rid of you and that old woman. He pretended to be dead because he wanted to be with me."

I flew into a rage from embarrassment and my gaze fell on their son behind them.

Konner thought that I was going to hurt the child, so the moment I reached out my hand, he suddenly pushed me down the cliff!

The real weightlessness woke me up in an instant.

I found myself still lying in the hospital ward. It was almost dawn, but there was no one else in the ward.

I stood still in a daze.

If that dream had happened in a certain time and space, it was very likely that Konner didn't get leukemia!

I carefully recalled that when he died in my dream, I didn't see his body or ashes. He just asked the doctor to leave me a will.

He said that his body had been cremated by his family in his hometown.

I was so sad that I thought he was dead, but never thought that he could fake his death.

I clenched my fists tightly.

"Konner, if you pretend to be dead to find your lover, I will definitely kill you this time!"

I contacted the cemetery center and asked for Elyse's contact information.

After the phone was connected, Elyse's soft voice came. "Hello, Ms. Cain, what is it?"

I left the hospital and tried to find out the location of the person on the line while checking for Konner's location.

"Ms. Cline, may I ask if you have a daughter named Averie?"

Elyse asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

I was shocked. I didn't expect that dream to be real.

I took a deep breath. "Ms. Cline, can we meet? Averie might be my daughter."

Opposite the cafe shop, Elyse listened to what I said with a surprised face and frowned slightly.

Just now, I told her everything that had happened between Konner and me.

"I'm sorry. I just found out that I was a mistress. We were together for eight years. He lied to me and said that he didn't get married. He said that he couldn't get married because he fell out with his family and couldn't get a free pass to be a citizen here.

"My daughter Averie was taken away by him as soon as she was born. He said he wanted to give her a better development and education environment. In the past five years, I could see her only by looking at her photos and videos."

As I spoke, my eyes turned red.

"I guess Konner claimed that he had leukemia just to pretend to be dead and leave with his lover. He will complete the plan by the end of this year."

After listening to my serious words, Elyse burst into laughter.

"Ms. Cain, you're his mistress. Why should I believe you?

"Besides, even if he has another lover, it doesn't make any difference to me.

"As long as our marriage remains, we will be a legal couple. Averie is adopted by us according to the legal procedure. She's my daughter.

"Ms. Cain, why do you think I should help you?"

Elyse was so calm. She didn't care if Konner was faking his death or not.

She was confident that Konner would never lie to her.

Elyse lowered her head and took a sip of coffee.

"You may not know why he gave Averie to me to raise. That's because I can't give birth to a child.

"Actually, I told you that day at the cemetery center that I knew Konner had a mistress outside. But it doesn't matter. After all, we have been married for ten years. I know that a man's love can't last forever.

"But as long as he doesn't divorce, I will always be Mrs. Ramsey of the Ramsey family, and I will always have endless money."

Hearing her words, I laughed too.

Elyse looked at me strangely. "Am I wrong? You don't even get married. So what if he's willing to have a kid with you."

I thought Elyse was heading in the wrong direction.

I was not here to compete with her for a man. I was here to seek her cooperation.

"Ms. Cline, what if I tell you that Konner will arrange a fake death at the end of the year and take away all the money?

"At that time, you can only get a certificate of death and all the debts with his company. By the way, his company will declare bankruptcy this year, and there will only be countless debts left for you.

"Ms. Cline, do you think that he married you because he placed you in a special position? What you don't know is that he didn't even leave you a chance to live."

Elyse's expression changed gradually.

She thought for a while and looked at me seriously. "What do you think I should do?"

I put down the coffee and smiled.

"Doesn't he have leukemia and pretend to be dead? Then let's make it real.

"Anyway, I just want to get my daughter back. Those assets are all yours, Ms. Cline. I won't take a penny.

"Is this sincere enough, Ms. Cline?"
