After Being Killed By My Mother-in-law, I was Reborn
Chapter 4
I looked at the time. There was only half an hour before Flora arrived and one hour before I died.
10:00 a.m., April 15, 2015. This time was engraved in my mind.
After Maria and Amy left, I quickly got out of bed and ran to the storage room.
There are a few surveillance cameras I bought some time ago.
The villa was quite large. In my previous life, I had suggested installing surveillance cameras indoors, but Maria and Edward disagreed, so I put the cameras here.
I turned on the camera according to the instructions. Fortunately, I bought a dual-purpose charger for convenience, so it was fully charged.
I moved a stool over and used double-sided tape to stick the camera to the shadow of the mural. It wouldn't be noticeable easily.
Then, I adjusted the angle according to the picture displayed on the phone screen.
In the picture, I could see the hall on the first floor clearly, including the staircase.
When everything was ready, I heard the sound of a car outside.
Edward was back.
In the third year after we got married, he knew that my business was getting better and better, so he decisively quit and came to be a supervisor in my company.
Actually, we had loved each other before.
Edward was an old customer of my first restaurant. He often came to the restaurant to eat, and we gradually became familiar with each other.
Knowing that I was single, he started pursuing me.
His pursuit was passionate. He basically spent all his spare time with me, showing his concern for me.
Edward's family was not good. His father died when he was a teenager. Maria raised him and Amy and sent them to college.
Therefore, even though he grew up in a city, he was not lazy. Instead, he was very good at cooking and doing housework.
My restaurant was small at the very beginning, but the food was delicious. I was always busy during meal times.
Edward always came to help.
He served food, wiped the table, and washed dishes.
The two waitresses in the restaurant praised him as a good man.
I liked him. So, I didn't hesitate to agree to be Edward's girlfriend not long after he started pursuing me.
A year later, he came to my house to propose marriage. My parents had no objection, and we got married smoothly.
After getting married, I thought I was still young, so I wanted to grasp the opportunity to expand my career first and then planned to have children after I had a solid economic base.
Edward had no objection at the very beginning.
However, when I really had enough money and wanted to have a baby, I couldn't get pregnant.
After going to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said that I had a congenital fallopian tube abnormality and it would be difficult for me to conceive.
It didn't mean that I was infertile.
But Edward's family thought it was the doctor's euphemism, and I had infertility.
Edward didn't ask for a divorce, but he always mentioned this matter to provoke me.
Maria looked for many doctors, got countless folk remedies, and asked me to take these medicines in a soft but compelling manner.
Edward's mistress, Flora, was my former assistant, who worked for me for two years and resigned four months ago because of her pregnancy.
I didn't care much about my employees' privacies, so I didn't even know when Flora got married.
I just asked the financial staff to give her two extra months' salary as a gift.
After Edward knew this, he teased me, "Do you want to get some blessing of Flora's pregnancy in this way?"
I was annoyed.
Edward knew it was difficult for me to conceive, yet he still joked about it.
I retorted, "There are so many pregnant women in the world. Why do you think so? Can't I give rewards to my employees who get pregnant in the future?"
Edward said indifferently, "Look, you're jealous. Don't deny it."
I was sulking all day that day.
Yes, I did feel jealous.
It was hard for me to feel relieved. Others easily obtained something I had been longing for.
But I never expected that the two unrelated people had actually hooked up with each other for a long time.
When I was thinking of the past, a group of people entered the villa.
They were Edward, Flora, Maria, and Amy.
