Giving Up My Wife To Her Sweetheart

On the way to the airport, I bought the latest ticket.

I heard that the hospitals in Washington were very good at treating this disease, which would be my only chance.

A month ago, I fainted at home. After waking up, I took a taxi to the hospital for an examination.

But it turned out that I was in the late stage of bone cancer.

That was not the first time I had felt uncomfortable.

Before, when I fainted at home several times, I called Cristal with my last bit of strength.

But when Cristal answered it and heard that I didn't feel comfortable, she lost patience.

"I just came out to work. Can you stop pretending ill? Why didn't you feel anything wrong when I was at home? Why didn't you get sick when Kolten didn't come back?

"Stop making trouble for no reason, Jadiel. Don't challenge my limited patience with you!"

The phone was hung up.

I also ended up in a coma when her cold voice disappeared.

At that time, she was almost with Kolten every day.

Naturally, she thought I was jealous and competing for favor.

At first, I didn't take the disease seriously, but when I fainted and my ribs were fractured last time, I had to pay attention to it.

And it turned out...

After boarding, I took painkillers and had a rest.

I had to admit that there was still a glimmer of hope for Cristal in my heart.

Maybe when she went home and saw the diagnosis report on the table, she would know that I was not lying.

Perhaps she would feel sorry for me because of this.

Thinking about it, I fell into a deep sleep.

After the plane landed, I went directly to the hospital by taxi.

But just after registering, Cristal called me.

"Didn't you see the message I sent you? What are you pretending to miss it for? Isn't it just because I didn't accompany you on our anniversary?"

Her voice was a bit hoarse as if she just woke up.

Only then did I check the message.

I saw her message from last night, asking me to pick her up at the hotel this morning.

I said with a bitter smile, "Cristal, that is our only anniversary."

If I didn't survive this time, it would be our first anniversary and also the last one.

Her voice suddenly became irritable on the phone.

"The only anniversary? Are you crazy? I didn't say I want to divorce you!"

"But I want a divorce.

"Cristal, I'm tired of it."

There was suddenly silence on the phone.

I thought she would think I was being unreasonable again, but surprisingly, she spoke with a bit more patience.

"I've been busy with the project recently and have neglected you a bit. Don't think too much. You should take a rest, and I'm going to the company."

Before I could say anything, the phone was immediately hung up.

I received a message from the bank that someone transferred money to me.

Cristal transferred almost 100 thousand dollars to me.

She had always been so generous.

Every time she comforted me with money, making me obedient and well-behaved.

But what I wanted was never money.

I paid to make an appointment with an expert but had to wait for a day.

This hospital was located in a bustling area of Washington, surrounded by several malls that were popular with college students.

Cristal and I had been here a few times before.

But her face was filled with faint boredom and exhaustion as if nothing in the mall could attract her attention.

I had put in a lot of effort for this.

I tried to learn online, hoping to bring more smiles to her face.

But it was all in vain.

I was just a poor student, and I couldn't even afford a luxury item to give her.

On the day I graduated, the news that the excellent senior Kolten was getting married came.

Unexpectedly, Cristal invited me to go shopping.

But when we reached the riverside, she suddenly squatted down and burst into tears.

I was at a loss for words as I tried to comfort her, and she looked at me with tearful eyes full of grievances.

"Do you like me? Will you marry me?"

Unconsciously, I found myself standing by that riverside.

The suspension bridge that used to be a tourist attraction had been demolished, leaving only a bare area.

My phone rang with a notification sound.

That social media account updated again.

It was an account without any comments or likes from other netizens.

I felt like his updates were only visible to me.
