The search went smoothly. My other body parts were found out, except the head and feet.

Zane and Cody, his assistant, stood beside the dissecting table and began to work.

The first thing was to extract important clues after processing the remains of my body.

The next step was to extract gastrointestinal and oral residues, open my chest, and examine the cause of my death.

Zane checked and reported, "It looks more like death from suffocation."

"Before and after death, maybe the deceased was..." His voice became lower and lower, and his face became paler.

I guessed that he might think of my betrayal.

But in fact, it wasn't my fault.

Putting a stop to all distracting thoughts, Zane devoted to his work again and dissected my body with rapt attention.

To be honest, I was a little fascinated by it.

Zane was handsome and aloof. The pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose made him look mysterious and charming.

My case was so complicated that Zane spent 10 hours completing the forensic report.

Taking off his gloves and mask tiredly, he washed his hands at the sink.

"Tell Joe that the meeting can begin in ten minutes."

At the case seminar, Zane conducted a detailed analysis of the forensic report.

"The deceased is a female, between 20 and 25 years old. The various indicators show that she has been dead for about 4 to 6 days.

"Although there are no stretch marks on her abdomen, she gets pregnant and has a miscarriage before death. The deceased is alive when she is tortured by the murderer. Now, in addition to the head and feet, the child is also missing."

Looking at his furrowed brows and thoughtful expression, I knew that he remembered something.

Indeed, I was four months pregnant.

I told him the good news, but he said I was dirty and shameless. He believed that I was not worthy of having children and being a mother.

He cursed me and our children with the most unpleasant words. Perhaps that was why he couldn't see us after we died.

"It should be the first time for the murderer to kill a person, or he did this for the first time. The wounds are messy. It proves that the murderer has no experience and is not a person engaged in the business of selling pork and beef.

"The victim must have tried to resist before her death, which stimulated the murderer and made him do such a crazy thing.

"Or maybe the murderer has some kind of connection with the deceased. To vent his anger, the murderer kills her cruelly."

Everyone remained silent at this time.

After the meeting, Joe stopped Zane and said, "Don't you think this victim looks familiar? I remember Chloe..."

Zane snorted, "So what? Are you familiar with it? Have you made love with her?"

Joe couldn't help but punch him, "Mind your manners! Why do you become so rude?"

"What the hell do you want from me? Do you want me to show the evidence of her cheating on me?

"I really wish the deceased was Chloe now. If she died, I wouldn't bother to gather the evidence."

At this time, I closed my eyes.

Zane had already gotten what he wished for.

"Are the results of the DNA test out yet?"

Zane repeatedly dissected my body, trying hard to find any clues about the victim.

"No, we don't have anyone in our DNA database who can match up."

"Have there been any missing persons reports recently?"

"No. I found it strange. The deceased is a pregnant woman, but her husband or other family doesn't even bother to look for her."

As Zane was chatting with Cody, Joe pushed the door open.

"We've expanded the search area again, but there is no news of her head and feet. Also, we're searching closely for the child you mentioned.

"Zane, don't you have any doubts? To stop us from knowing the identity of the victim, the murderer hides the head, but why are there no feet?

"Perhaps because we can identify the deceased by the feet, the murderer intentionally hid them to confuse us."

Zane nodded in agreement. "Very likely."

The assistant added cautiously, "Mr. Smith, Mr. Lawson, do you think the murderer has some kind of quirk? Since he's so cruel to a pregnant woman, can it be that he hates women? There was a similar case in our hometown before. A man suspected that the baby in his wife's belly was a bastard, so he insisted on taking the baby out for a DNA test.

"After he escaped, he continued to commit crimes, killing women like prostitutes."

At this point, Zane's face darkened even more, as if he had suffered some kind of humiliation.

Joe waved his hand and asked Cody to leave first.

"Zane, have you contacted Chloe before?"

"If you're free, why not ask her to sign the divorce agreement and send it over quickly? By then, everyone won't feel embarrassed."

Joe seemed to have suddenly thought of something and suggested, "Since the deceased was a pregnant woman, she should have been to a hospital. Let's go and check it out."

"If you had stopped thinking of Chloe, you would have already found out the truth," Zane scoffed.

Seeing that he didn't trust me at all, I floated in the air, smiling bitterly.

With so many obvious clues, Zane never suspected me.

It seemed like I had disgusted him so much.

All of a sudden, Zane took out his phone and made a call.

His voice was so gentle that I knew who he was calling immediately.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Darling, I just had a nightmare. I was so scared that I didn't dare to close my eyes."

Hearing his words, Zane glanced at the clock on the wall.

It was eleven o'clock in the evening.

He pinched his brows and took off his white coat. "It's all my fault. Don't worry. I'll go home right now. Turn on the light and wait for me."

Zane used to be a workaholic. Every time he encountered a difficult case, he would eat and live at his office.

At that moment, he just told me that he wanted justice for the deceased. Otherwise, it would make him feel guilty.

I didn't understand why he could stop working and go back now.

Or the current corpse lying on the dissection bed was also dirty in his heart.

It seemed like researching my body wasn't worth the effort.

A dirty person like me really couldn't be compared with his true love.

However, I was unwilling.

I was Zane's legal wife, while Lily meant nothing to him.

Later, I followed Zane back to where he lived now.

It was Zane's first apartment, his pre-marital property.

To prevent me from hurting his beloved one, he made very thorough arrangements.

Yet, Zane didn't know how wicked the woman in his arms was.

During the days without me, he came here every day. He kept dancing with her, watching the moon with her, and sleeping with her.

What he did was also disgusting.

"Darling, you finally come back..."

Upon opening the door, Zane was hugged by someone.

She nestled in his arms, trembling helplessly. "I dreamed... I dreamed that Chloe had found this place... She..."

The more she spoke, the more emotional she became. In the end, she was crying so hard that she couldn't speak.

Zane held her in his arms with affection and wiped away her tears gently. He then took her to the sofa to coax her.

"Don't worry. I'm always here. I will protect you and won't let her hurt you.

"If she dares to hurt you, I will publish everything she did. Take it easy. As long as I'm here, she won't do anything to you."

Lily happily hooked her arms around his neck and kissed him.

He just enjoyed the sweet moment and didn't notice that a smug smile played over her lips.

She acted as if she were a winner.

The two kissed passionately. As I could hardly bear to watch it anymore, they finally separated.

"Have you had any difficult cases recently? You look very tired."

"Yeah. We found a female corpse that was dismembered. Until now, we haven't found all the body parts yet."

"Oh my! It's so scary." She pretended to be a coward and got into Zane's arms, "Have you found anything now?"

"Nothing special. You'd better not go out recently. It's safest to just stay at home."

She nodded obediently, but in fact, her eyes were full of arrogance and pride.

"Zane, how about giving that woman a call? With such a big incident, you should also warn her."

"Lily, you are too kind. She can't hold a candle to you. Don't mention her anymore. I feel sick.

"Don't let her destroy the relationship between us."

I even began to believe that I was really dirty.

As for Zane, he would never expect that the person he was holding in his arms was the real devil.

Finally, Zane was called back by Joe.

"Have you contacted Chloe?"

Zane said unhappily, "You called me back just for this unimportant thing?

"Why would I contact her? I don't want to disgust myself after all."

Joe handed over the information to Zane and reminded him, "This is information I found. You have to be mentally prepared."

Zane read the document and then was stunned.
