Chapter 3
The doctors and nurses around him looked up at him coldly, but Zayn pursed his lips and refused to let go. The doctor had no choice but to send Michelle away first. Zayn followed Michelle's ambulance without looking back.
Suddenly, a series of sympathetic eyes fell on me.
"This man is too righteous. Although his wife is the cause of the accident, it is too cruel."
"Isn't that the most handsome captain of the diving rescue team? God, I even promised to marry him at that time. Fortunately, God didn't help me."
"Don't talk nonsense. Maybe his wife really did something unforgivable..."
The voice in my ear gradually faded and I fainted before the ambulance arrived.
After that, he held Michelle and swam up without looking back at me.
The rescue team member next to me also thought that I was responsible for the accident. He swam towards me impatiently and quickly took me to the shore. No one took care of my extreme physical condition.
After landing, I began to have dense red rashes on my body, which were extremely itchy. This was a symptom of decompression sickness. The bites on my arms and the bruised abdomen hurt so much that I couldn't make a sound for help.
My consciousness gradually blurred. Finally, when the ambulance arrived, I couldn't shed a single tear in my eyes. They had already dried up on the seabed.
Zayn's eyes were red and he pulled the doctor and said, "Save Michelle first!"
The doctor shook his arm away, "I can understand your feelings as a patient's family member, but she has no serious injuries and can wait for the next car! This lady obviously needs help more!"
The doctor pointed to me soaked in blood in the corner.
Zayn grabbed the doctor's stretcher and refused to let go. He pointed his other hand at me and said, "The one lying there is my family member, but she is the cause of the accident. I ask the hospital to save the victim first. I will be responsible for any consequences of delayed treatment for my wife."
Michelle pretended to remind him, "Zayn, your wife is still pregnant."
The cold-blooded doctors and nurses around him looked up at him, but Zayn pursed his lips and refused to let go. The doctor had no choice but to send Michelle away first and Zayn followed Michelle's ambulance without looking back.
Suddenly, a series of sympathetic eyes fell on me.
"This man is too righteous. Although his wife is the cause of the accident, he is too cruel to the child."
"Isn't that the most handsome captain of the diving rescue team just now? God, I even promised to marry him at that time. Fortunately, God didn't help me."
"Don't talk nonsense, maybe his wife really did something unforgivable..."
The voice in my ear gradually faded and I fainted before the ambulance arrived.
In the dream, I went back to the time when we just met in the diving team.
At that time, Michelle, Zayn's girlfriend who had been in love with him for 5 years, won the title of the underwater mermaid princess competition, accepted a high-paying job abroad and had to break up with Zayn.
I choked on water in my lungs when I exhaled during a dive and it was Zayn who saved me at the critical moment. I vaguely remember that he lifted me ashore and gave me artificial respiration in the gentle sunlight.
Maybe it was the suspension bridge effect, or maybe it was because I heard rumors about his love affair, I had since sunk for this Maldivian diving rescue captain. In order to stay with him for a long time, I chose to become a diving coach in Maldives. In order to attract his attention, I took great pains to collect the collection of diving equipment he wanted.
In the diving competition, I signed up for the deep diving project and the water pressure almost suffocated me, just for Zayn to look at me more.
Every day, I persisted in preparing nutritious meals and diving equipment for him and helped him record the diving log.
Chapter 4
Colleagues in the diving team talked about me behind my back, saying that I was the captain's dog.
Zayn stood up firmly, held my hand tightly and announced to everyone, "Marie is my girlfriend. Anyone who talks about my girlfriend behind my back will have to go deep diving with me 20 times!"
Our relationship was officially established that day and the rumors stopped abruptly.
Zayn was very gentle to me. He went diving with me around the world during holidays, was keen to record my beautiful photos and would prepare hot tea and massage me when I was tired.
When I cried for Nemo in the movie Finding Nemo, Zayn took me to dive in the Great Barrier Reef to see thousands of clownfish accompanied only by their families and made a "reassuring" gesture to me.
In the Atlantis Aquarium Hotel, Zayn, surrounded by fish, wore a diving suit and held up a ring to propose to me outside the glass. The guests of the entire hotel were excited and shouted "Marry him!"
The proposal video received more than 2 million likes on the Internet.
Many female team members said to me, "Marie, you are so lucky to marry Zayn."
But later I knew that I was just Michelle's stand-in.
One day I found in Zayn's locker, there was a diving photo of him holding Princess Michelle in his arms. I once doubted myself and thought about giving up this marriage, but every time Zayn was good to me, I couldn't help but doubt whether the love really existed.
However, as Michelle came to the Maldives to be a mermaid, his attitude towards me became more and more impatient and disgusted. He ignored and doubted me countless times for Michelle and I tried to make excuses for him.
After Michelle died in the previous life, he was so calm that he searched for all kinds of rare tonics for me and accompanied the child to be born safely. Such surging love once made me mistakenly believe that I was the real winner of this love.
It was not until I was killed by him later that I woke up and understood. Zayn never really loved me. This was the cruel truth that I accepted after two lives.
When I woke up, the tip of my nose was filled with the smell of hospital disinfectant.
The doctor told me compassionately, "Your arm tendons are broken and your movements will be limited within five years. Whether you can dive in the future depends on your recovery."
He paused and then continued, "You suffered a severe blow to your abdomen and it was too late to send you for treatment. Your uterus ruptured, the child is gone and it is not suitable for you to get pregnant again."
My heart hurt more than the wounds on my body. My dear child, I was so sorry that your mother didn't protect you the way I should had. Instead of letting you be born in an unfortunate family, it was better for you to choose a warm and loving family to reincarnate. I wished you a worry-free next life.
The nurse next to me had red eyes and she asked me softly, "Where is the child's father?"
"Dead."
She looked at my face again, her face full of doubts, "Are you the wife of the star rescue captain Zayn? I just saw him accompanying another female patient!"
At the same time, my phone popped up a message from Michelle. In the photo, Zayn was feeding her red glutinous rice dumplings. This bowl of dumplings should had been cooked by Zayn himself and there was a burn ointment on the back of his hand. I had seen such intimate photos countless times and I had long been numb.
My phone's push notifications exploded and today's shark bite incidents had occupied the top of the breaking news list on social media.
The investor of the diving team and the star captain Zayn came out to explain. Zayn bowed and apologized to the public, saying that I deliberately lured sharks to hurt people out of jealousy and occupied public resources.
Michelle was wearing a hospital gown, with a cold and pitiful face. She looked at Zayn affectionately and said, "Marie must have some misunderstanding about me. Although I was hit and had a concussion, since she is Zayn's wife, I am willing to forgive her..."
These three people joined forces to push me to the center of the cyber violence bullying. All the love videos that Zayn and I had taken before were reported and removed and the abusive private messages on every social media I had were 999+
But the news that the star captain successfully saved people again and Michelle forgave him was liked by thousands of people. Some netizens even dug out Zayn and Michelle's 5-year fairy love and every word was full of regret for them.
There were also marketing accounts that spread rumors to attract traffic, "The love that the kind-hearted mermaid princess and the star diving captain missed in those years, it is suspected that the third party Marie intervened!"
I sent a message to Zayn, [Divorce]
Zayn called immediately, "Finally realized that you were wrong? Or was it because of the netizens' scolding? Why haven't you come to apologize to Michelle for so long?"
Zayn sneered, "Don't pretend, I'm sick, you won't divorce me even for the child!"
I said coldly, "The child is gone."
The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.
