My Husband’s Family Went Mad with Regret Upon My Rebirth

chapter 3

Harvey carefully covered Mila's eyes, his brows tightly furrowed.

He said, "Mom. Mila faints at the sight of blood. Even if you want to act, this isn't the place."

Freya, who was showing off in front of me just now, instantly lost her momentum.

She ingratiatingly helped Harvey support Mila out of the ward.

As she passed me, Mila gave me a slight smile, showing no signs of fainting or discomfort.

In the vast ward, only the sound of my heavy breathing remained.

I forced myself to walk to the nurse's station. The nurse on duty was startled when she saw me.

She said, "Ms. Simpson, what's wrong with you?"

After hastily bandaging up, I immediately got up and headed toward the leader's office.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Harvey and Mila eagerly embracing each other in the hallway.

Mila said, "Harvey, sending Albert to the orphanage, are you sure you won't regret it? He's your own son."

Harvey's voice was hoarse.

He said, "Of course, I don't regret it. Felix is my son. I remember Charlotte's family even prepared a house for her in the city. When Felix grows up, won't all of this be ours?"

"Besides, haven't you always wanted to study in the city? This is a perfect chance for you to check it out."

Mila said emotionally, "Harvey, you're so good to me."

After speaking, the sound of a sticky embrace followed.

My stomach churned with nausea. Holding back the urge to vomit, I went around to the other staircase and headed to the leader's office.

I carefully tucked the transfer notice into my pocket before returning to the ward.

But when I pushed open the ward door, I found it empty.

Seeing me return, a nurse tidying up the room said a bit awkwardly, "Ms. Simpson, your husband said there's no need to waste money, so..."

I didn't say anything, just let out a self-deprecating chuckle.

Since that's the case, I might as well go back to the staff dormitory to pack my things.

After confirming with the logistics department that the staff dormitory would be reclaimed once my transfer procedures were completed, I finally felt at ease and returned to the dormitory.

But the moment I opened the door, I was stunned by what I saw.

The wedding photo on the wall was gone, the orchids I planted on the balcony were missing, and the bedsheets and duvet cover had been replaced with patterns I disliked.

All traces of me in the house had disappeared.

As I stood there in a daze, laughter came from outside the door.

I opened the door and saw Mila in brand-new clothes, holding Harvey's arm intimately. The diamond bracelet on her wrist sparkled blindingly.

Harvey was holding shopping bags from the department store, and his other hand was holding Felix, who was eating candy.

Seeing this scene, my blood pressure instantly spiked.

Married to Harvey for ten years, he never bought anything for Albert and me.

Now, he's openly buying things for another woman and her child. How can I not be angry?

Even though I already knew what kind of person he is, I can't help but feel heartbroken at this moment.

I said, "Harvey, explain this to me. Why is all my stuff gone from this house?"

Harvey frowned tightly and said impatiently, "I let Mila move in. Felix will be our child from now on."

"I let Mila move in so I could spend more time with Felix. Do you really have to fuss over such small things?"

I could hardly believe my ears.

I said, "Fussing over small things? You let a widow move into our home..."

Before I could finish my sentence, a hard slap landed on my face.

Harvey said, "Charlotte, I'm not as dirty as you think."

Immediately, Harvey's eyes widened. Seeing me covering my face, he looked guilty for a moment.

He instinctively took a step back but continued, "If it weren't for you killing Albert, how would we have ended up here?"

"I'll take Mila and Felix to stay at a hotel for a couple of days. You think it over on your own."

After saying that, he took all the cash from the drawer and left with the two of them as if fleeing.

I looked around the house, which was filled with traces of Mila's presence.

I grabbed a broom and started smashing things around the house.

Since these things were bought with my money, no one can blame me even if I smash them all.

After smashing everything, I specifically went to the logistics department and told them I didn't want anything in the house anymore.

I also said that if they needed anything, they could just take it.

It was two days later when the house was completely emptied.

I handed over the keys to the staff dormitory.

Then, I saw a car parked at the hospital entrance at the agreed time.

The car window rolled down, and I immediately saw Albert wearing a small hat, smiling sweetly at me.

He called out, "Mom."

The deep unease in my heart finally disappeared. I held my precious, lost-and-found treasure tightly.

At this moment, a steady male voice came from the driver's seat.

He said, "Let's go. George and Evelyn are still waiting for you."

I nodded, took one last look at the place where I had spent ten years, and then got in the car without looking back.
