Back To The Month Before the Scumbag Husband Died

My husband Kevin Collins and my best friend Stella White had an affair and had a child.

But for the sake of reputation, they swore that they had nothing to do with each other.

I looked at Kevin and Stella kneeling on the ground.

I just smiled and helped them up, saying, "What are you talking about? Of course I know you are innocent!"

The two of them didn't have a chance to finish their prepared lines and just stood there in a daze.

But I was smiling in my heart.

They didn't know that I had been reborn.

The reason I did this was because Kevin would die in a car accident in a month.

So if I could hold on for a month, all his property would be mine!

One:

Kevin, who was supposed to be on a business trip to another province, was standing in front of me at this moment, frantically putting on his clothes, looking embarrassed. He said, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

Stella casually grabbed a coat and put it on, not even having time to button it up. She knelt on the ground and held my hand, saying, "Susy, this is a misunderstanding."

A boy called Tommy about five or six years old ran over from another bedroom. He looked alike to Kevin and threw himself into Kevin's arms. "Dad, who is she? Why is she bullying my mom?"

I didn't feel angry at all, nor did I feel being betrayed, because I had already seen this scene once.

In my previous life, I received a text message.

[Your husband is at your bestie's house right now. You can catch them on the bed now.]

I went over there with doubt, and this was exactly the scene I saw.

At that time, Kevin and Stella explained to me that it was a misunderstanding.

I was not a fool. I caught them on bed and they even had a child to prove that their affair was not just a spurofthemoment affair, but that they had been dating secretly for many years.

I was not that generous, so when I saw this, I immediately asked for a divorce.

Kevin refused to divorce me, saying that he still loved me and that it was a misunderstanding. But Stella spread the rumor that Kevin and I were not getting along and that I divorced him just to divide the family property.

I was so angry that I almost divorced him without taking property.

After the divorce, Kevin quickly got married to Stella and acknowledged the illegitimate child. However, less than a month after their marriage, Kevin died in a car accident, and all his property was left to Stella and the illegitimate child.

After my divorce, I felt unwell and went to the hospital for a checkup, only to find out that I had advanced breast cancer. Because I had no money for treatment, I died miserably. When I was dying, I realized this was Stella's conspiracy. I didn't expect that as soon as I closed my eyes, I would return to this scene that changed my life.

Stella saw that I was silent but looked calm. She frowned and said, "Susy, the water pipe in my house broke today, so I asked Kevin to fix it. I didn't expect that I would get soaked. You came in when I was changing clothes. Please understand us."

Kevin also nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, it's a misunderstanding."

I still didn't say anything but just looked at them with a smile.

Stella and Kevin looked at each other, and Stella pulled the kid into her arms, saying, "Although Tommy looks exactly like Kevin, he is not Kevin's. You have to believe us, we would never do such a thing."

I pretended to look at the child and said, "Yes, they look alike."

Stella gave birth to Tommy in her hometown the year when she claimed she was studying abroad. To avoid being discovered by me and leaving no records, she gave birth at home, so there was not even a birth certificate.

In my previous life, after I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I also asked Stella for money. At that time, Stella looked like a noble lady and said, "Susy, your current fate is exactly what I hoped for. How could I give you money to save you?"

Stella turned the big diamond ring in her hand and told me everything she had done.

It was also at this time that I realized that the text message was sent by Stella.

Because when Stella and I went to the hospital for a physical examination, she found out that I had breast problems. She did this to make my condition worse and to prevent me from getting good treatment.

She planned this.

But she was successful, and I died miserably just as she expected.

Thinking of this, I smiled and helped them up, saying, "Don't worry, of course I believe in you."

It was obvious that my reaction was not what Stella expected. She wanted to force me to understand what was happening.

Kevin had already put on his clothes and stood beside me humbly, saying, "I knew Susy was the smartest and she wouldn't have such wild ideas."

Stella frowned. After all, the current situation was completely different from what she had imagined.

"Susy, did anyone say anything to you when you came here today?

"You have to believe me and Kevin. Although Kevin and I grew up together, nothing special happened between us. If we have feelings for each other, Kevin wouldn't have married you.

"Tommy just happens to look like Kevin, but he's actually my exboyfriend's."

I chuckled and said, "Stella, don't explain. I believe in you. After all, I'm so good to you, and you're not a heartless bitch. How could you steal my husband?"

Kevin was very displeased with what Stella said, and said coldly, "Stop it. Stella, Susy and I will go back first, you can find someone to fix the water pipe yourself."

Stella still wanted to make a final effort. She winked at Tommy. Tommy had been trained by Stella's parents in her hometown for a few years, so he immediately understood what Stella meant and ran over to hug Kevin's thighs, saying, "Dad, don't you want me anymore?"

I burst out laughing and looked at Stella and Kevin, saying, "Did Kevin become Tommy's godfather without telling me? I forgive you this time, but if you hide something from me next time, I will be angry.

"If I get angry, I might cause troubles and ruin your reputation, leaving you with nothing."

The two of them nodded with pale faces, not daring to say anything else.

After this incident, they became cautious and didn't even dare to meet each other.

I also went to the hospital to check my breasts. The doctor told me that it was okay and there was no cancer at the moment, but I still needed a minimally invasive surgery.

Thanked to this small operation, I successfully slept in separate rooms from Kevin.

Kevin might be worried that I would make a big fuss and affect his company and stock price. During this period, he was even more attentive and nicer to me than when he was pursuing me.

Stella also came to my house, under the pretext of taking care of my diet and daily life. She said, "Susy, how come you didn't tell me that you had surgery? I saw on the Internet that in this case, surgery is not necessary."

I smiled slightly and said, "I was curious at first. The doctor said she had asked you to tell me the results of my last physical examination and that I needed surgery. But you told me that my results were normal. It turned out that you wanted me to heal on my own.

"If I didn't know you well, based on what happened recently, I might have thought you deliberately wanted me to become seriously ill so that you could be with Kevin!"

Stella looked embarrassed, but she just wanted me to leave on my initiative and never thought of causing trouble, so she said awkwardly that she had something to do at home and ran away in a hurry.

In the following time, I had been waiting for the day when Kevin would have a car accident. To be able to play the role of a woman who lost her beloved, I pondered in front of the mirror for a long time.

Finally, in the early morning of one day, I received a call from the police.

I had been worried that my rebirth would cause changes in Kevin's car accident, but it happened as expected.

I arrived at the hospital with a pale face, looking extremely sad. I staggeringly held the housekeeper Mary's hand and said, "I received a call saying that Kevin had a car accident. Is he okay?"

The police took out an accident report and said, "Your lover was involved in a car accident. According to the surveillance footage, he bent down to pick up his phone, which caused him to lose control of the vehicle and crash into the mountain. The vehicle then exploded and he was severely burned."

Looking at Kevin, whose whole body was burned like a piece of charcoal, I picked up a tissue soaked with medicated oil and kept wiping my tears, crying until I almost fainted.

Mary sighed and said, "Mrs. Collins, don't be too sad. I know you and Mr. Collins have always had a good relationship. Mr. Collins certainly doesn't want to see you so sad. Besides, you have to make the decision on how to treat Mr. Collins."

Of course I was sad. In my previous life, Kevin fell into the river and was dead when he was fished out. How come he still had a breath left this time?

But it was useless even if he was alive.

The attending doctor came over with the test results and treatment suggestions, and explained the current situation to me professionally, "The patient is still alive, but treating burns is very painful. You should be prepared. Debridement treatment must be performed immediately, otherwise it will soon..."

I raised my head and interrupted the doctor, "No, I can't let Kevin suffer. Kevin loves dignity the most! I want to give up treatment and let him leave with dignity."

I endured the nausea, smelled the burnt meat, and looked at Kevin with deep affection. I said, "Living like this is also suffering. I know Kevin best. He would rather die than live like this."

So at my strong request, all treatments were suspended, and Kevin's heart stopped beating in less than ten minutes.

The day after Kevin's death, I announced the news of his death and held a farewell ceremony at my home.

I tried hard to make myself look haggard. After all, it was very difficult to suppress such joy. Kevin died suddenly, but more importantly, he was an orphan, so all the inheritance belonged to me.

As I was mechanically thanking the arrival of the guests, Mary hurried over and whispered something in my ear. I became excited because Stella came.

Stella appeared at the funeral with Tommy.

Their arrival and the fact that Tommy and Kevin looked alike, everyone changed from being sad to curious.

Stella just pulled Tommy and said, "Tommy, kowtow to your father."

When she said this, everyone started to murmur.

A stranger appeared out of nowhere and said, "Mrs. Collins, if it can be confirmed that Tommy is Mr. Collins' child, then the estate may need to be redistributed. Illegitimate children also have the right of inheritance."

Mary was shaking with anger, and she stood in front of me to protect me, saying, "Do you have evidence? Can't I say that you were picked up on the street when you were a kid?"

Stella walked up to me and knelt down with a thud, saying, "Susy, I know I'm sorry for you. In fact, Tommy's father is Kevin. Kevin and I have been childhood sweethearts and were about to get married, but you intervened. I couldn't bear to hurt you, so I gave in. But after you got married, I found out that I was pregnant.

"I wanted to keep this secret forever, but the child is innocent!"

Everyone was waiting for my reaction. I raised my hand without thinking and slapped Stella in the face, saying, "You can say whatever you want, but you can't slander Kevin."

Mary pushed Stella to the ground and didn't let her get up, saying, "Have you lost your conscience? Mr. Collins and Mrs. Collins are so kind to you, but you brought a child from nowhere to disrupt this ceremony. You just want a share of the inheritance."

Stella's tears kept falling, and she cried pitifully and said, "Susy, I won't hide if you hit me. I know I am sorry for you, but the child is innocent.

"In fact, you caught me and Kevin last time. Kevin had already confessed that he wanted to divorce you and said he was willing to divorce with nothing. But you refused to divorce him just to make us suffer.

"We wanted to explain these to you slowly so that you can break up peacefully, but I didn't expect Kevin to pass away so suddenly."

I gave Mary a look, and she immediately covered Stella's mouth. I said painfully, "Stella, you are not sorry for me, you are sorry for Kevin. Your son does look a bit like Kevin, but I know it's just a coincidence.

"You may not know that I haven't had children for so many years because Kevin is infertile. But for not embarrassing Kevin, I could only say that I didn't want children."

Stella broke free from Mary's hand and pointed at the coffin, saying, "You have to prove it. I asked for a paternity test, but I did it only to prove the child's identity and to ensure that Kevin would have a successor. I never thought of sharing your property, but you always assume the worst of others!

"Susy, do you dare to do it? If you don't dare, it means you feel guilty. Then, Tommy is Kevin's child!"

I nodded and said, "Of course I dare."

Stella was delighted and probably thought that I was a fool.

But I quickly sighed and said, "But Kevin was cremated because he had been in a car accident and suffered severe burns all over his body. You knew this, so you deliberately brought Tommy here, hoping to use the pressure of public opinion to make me recognize Tommy."

Stella stumbled to the side of the coffin and saw that there was no body inside but a highend urn!

Stella stopped acting and pointed her finger at me, saying, "How come he was cremated today as he just died yesterday? You did it on purpose. You murdered him!"

People who attended the ceremony were all shocked.

I didn't panic but just explained to everyone, "Kevin was driving dangerously and crashed into the mountain. He would have been fine, but he caught fire after the collision. Not a single piece of his skin was left intact. I couldn't accept others seeing Kevin like this, so I cremated him overnight."

I looked at Stella and said slowly, "Didn't you come here with Tommy just because you knew Kevin was cremated?"

Stella covered her chest and said, "You are talking nonsense."

Mary snorted coldly and said, "It's not up to you to decide whether Mrs. Collins is talking nonsense or not. Since you said that this child is Mr. Collins, don't you have a paternity test in all these years? Don't you even have a birth certificate?"

I secretly gave Mary a thumbs up and continued to say to Stella, "Stella, please stop this and let Kevin rest in peace."

Stella wanted to say something else, but I felt that it was enough, so I asked the security guard to kick them out.

My lawyer and I were handling the inheritance procedure when Stella came again, but this time she came alone.

I guessed that she wouldn't give up so easily, but I didn't expect her to do it so soon.

Stella sat beside me and said, "I went to the hospital and asked. You gave up on rescuing him on purpose. Kevin should have a chance to survive."

I didn't refute.

Stella snorted coldly and said, "There's no one else here, why are you still acting? Aren't you tired of acting like this every day?"

In my previous life, when I asked Stella to borrow money in the hospital, she said the same thing as now, "Do you think you are great just because you have money? I hate people like you who pretend to be saints."

I looked at her face and found she was totally different from when we first met.

Stella was ostracized in school because she was pretty and her family was poor. I saw her hiding in the toilet to eat pitifully, so I held her hand and told everyone, "Stella is my friend from now on, and no one can bully her."

Later, Stella and I became best friends. My family was relatively welloff, so no matter what I bought, I would buy one for her. She was always very happy and introduced me to Kevin to thank me.

The similar backgrounds between Kevin and I made me feel very close to him. After confirming that Stella and Kevin were just ordinary friends without any romantic feelings between them, Kevin and fell in love and got married.

To help him achieve something, I sold the house left to me by my parents and used it as Kevin's first starting capital.

Thinking of this, I smiled and said, "Seeing you angry makes me less tired."

Stella stared at me and said, "You knew that Tommy was Kevin's child. You cremated him on purpose and didn't want Tommy to be recognized, right?"

I nodded and said, "Yes! You sent me a text message asking me to catch you. I knew you wanted me to file for a divorce so that you could marry Kevin and enjoy wealth. I'm not stupid, so how could I agree to that?"

Stella's tone became a little pitiful, "I didn't think so. I just wanted to be with Kevin quietly, but Tommy is innocent. I don't want Tommy to be nameless for the rest of his life.

"You are infertile, so you hope that Kevin will be childless like you. But Kevin is the only child in his family. If Tommy isn't recognized, Kevin will be bullied by other ghosts."

She said that I had been acting.

But she was more good at acting than me.

I was amused by her words and said, "Then why don't you just be kind enough to pray for him? It's not necessary to divide up the property to be recognized."

Stella's face turned pale. She probably didn't expect someone as noble as me to say such a thing. She stammered, "Since you admit that Tommy is Kevin's child, you should return the things that belong to him! Otherwise, you will suffer retribution."

"So what if I admit it? You can show me evidence to prove that Tommy is Kevin's child," I covered my mouth and said, "Oh, I'm so happy that I'm confused. Kevin has been cremated. There is no evidence."

Stella stood up and took out the phone from her bag, saying, "Susy, do you think I came to you to reminisce about the past?"
