When the Wife Saved Herself from the Cruel Husband and Wicked Sister

Wendy was dragged to mental hospital entrance by Ron's bodyguards. She was filled with shock, but what hurt her more was the fact that Ron, her own husband believed her family's words instead of hers.

Perhaps, because disappointment was so clear in Wendy's eyes, Ron raised his hand to cover them. He couldn't bear the sight and pulled her into his arms.

“Wen, don’t worry. I’ll take you out very soon. I won’t leave you alone,” he spoke softly.

This was the first time Wendy felt a strong urge to throw up because of Ron’s words. They were… too disgusting.

Every day in the mental hospital, she was tortured with electric shocks. Countless pills were forced into her mouth.

Wendy could only wait until night, secretly go to the bathroom, and make herself throw up. She didn't want the drugs wouldn’t destroy her mind. But what she threw up wasn’t only medicine, it was food too.

After more than a week of this torture, Wendy was extremely weak. She finally made it to the day she could leave. But the moment she stepped out of the hospital, her body gave up. She immediately fainted on the ground.

When Ron saw this, his pupils shrank. He forgot everything else and rushed forward to catch Wendy’s now lighter body. This time, Wendy stayed in the hospital for two full days.

When Wendy woke up, there an IV needle was on the back of her hand. Once again, no one was by her bed.

But… why did she still have freckles on her face? Normally, after two days, all her makeup should have been gone.

While she was confused, someone at the door gave her the answer.

“Wendy, don’t be scared. I did your makeup for you.”

It was Oliver. He didn’t ask why Wendy used such make up. He just put down a bowl of porridge and hurried away because of work at the hospital.

In truth, Ron had stayed with Wendy all day, but last night he left because of a call from Windy. He planned to come back before Wendy woke up. He didn’t expect her to wake up early.

So, when he finally returned to the hospital room, Ron sat down by Wendy's bed and held the long IV tube in his hand.

“Wen… I didn’t know the mental hospital had tortured you like that. The doctors I talked to already told me everything. Don’t worry, I won’t let those people go.” He continued, “Please don’t be mad at me…”

That was the first time Ron had seen Wendy so pale. Looking at her tired face, he could no longer hide his guilt.

Wendy didn’t respond. She didn’t want to, and she couldn’t forgive Ron.

Ron felt scared at her cold silence. To make Wendy feel better, he decided to take her to do her favorite activity: skiing.

When they arrived at the skiing site, Wendy found out Windy was there too. She turned around and wanted to leave, but Ron held her tightly.

His voice sounded almost like begging. “Wen, she won’t ski with us. Winny will just watch from the side.”

Before Wendy could speak, Windy came over warmly, held Wendy’s arm, and smiled sweetly. “Sister, it’s so good that you’re out. But your hands are really cold. Let’s go talk over there. I’ll ask Ronnie to buy us warmer gloves.”

It sounded like a suggestion, but Windy forcefully pulled Wendy away. Wendy still felt the pain from the electric shocks. Being dragged like that made her face twist in pain.

Finally, she couldn’t take it anymore. She violently shook off Windy’s hand and looked at her coldly.

“What do you want?” Wendy asked firmly.

Now that they were out of Ron’s sight, Windy stopped her pretense. A familiar look of disgust appeared on her face.

“What I want? You’ll know very soon. But before that, I’m really curious. Why do you seem sober? Didn’t you drink any of those pills at the mental hospital?”
