The CEO's wife, suffering from terminal cancer, is filled with regret!

When Shen Zhixia heard these words, she retorted sharply, just as she had countless times before, "Impossible! You were the one who texted him to go back then! If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died!"

"I didn't kill him. If I had even the slightest suspicion, I would have been sentenced by the criminal police back then!"

"Shen Zhixia, how long are you going to keep deceiving yourself!"

After I shouted those words angrily, the pain in my abdomen became more and more pronounced because I was so agitated.

At that moment, I couldn't care less about taking my medicine, because Shen Zhixia was glaring at me with bloodshot eyes, laughing angrily.

"Pei Jin is heavily in debt and unable to repay? Then why didn't he accept the money I sent him? Ji Nanchen, even now, you're still lying to me!"

"If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died. What did he do wrong that you had to kill him!"

Before I could even open my mouth to explain, Shen Zhixia had already grabbed my neck tightly. "Ji Nanchen, why did you hurt him! I loved him so much, why did you kill him?!"

Why wasn't it you who died back then?!

"No... I really didn't kill him, I..."

The pain in my abdomen became more and more pronounced, and I didn't even have the strength to pull away Shen Zhixia's hand that was pinching me.

For a moment, I even thought it would be nice if she just strangled me to death.

But no, I can't let her bear the guilt of murder.

Someone like her should live a life as bright and free as the sun, not spend the rest of her life in prison.

I forced a smile. "Shen Zhixia, are you... going to strangle... me?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhixia's eyes turned even redder. She pinched me tightly again, then suddenly let go, took a step back, and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

She glared at me angrily, "Ji Nanchen, do you want me to kill you, and then live with guilt and regret for the rest of my life?"

"Go ahead and dream!"

"I will never fall in love with you in this lifetime!"

After saying this, Shen Zhixia reached out and opened the car door, pulling me out of the car. "Come on, come home with me!"

"go home?!"

I looked at her in disbelief, unable to understand why she, who had been so eager to die with me just a second ago, would take me home the next.

Does she not want to divorce me just so she can keep me by her side and continue to torment me?

When I came to my senses, I was already sitting in the passenger seat.

She was driving very fast, the scenery along the roadside kept rushing past, and the howling wind was tearing at my sanity.

After a long while, the car stopped at an intersection to wait for the traffic light to turn green.

During this break, I turned to the woman sitting next to me and said seriously, "Shen Zhixia, let's get a divorce. That way, you can start a family with Xu Jin and live the life you want."

“I’m not threatening you to give up Xu Jin, I’m serious about divorcing you.”

Shen Zhixia tightened her grip on the steering wheel, and her previously slightly composed brows and eyes were once again filled with a fierce look.

"You want me to live the life I want?"

She curled her lips into a mocking smile. "Ji Nanchen, don't you know what kind of life I want?"

I know that what she wants is to live a life with Pei Jin.

The person she loved from beginning to end was Pei Jin.

Besides Pei Jin, what she wants most is my life.

Now that I am nearing the end of my life, my love for her has long been worn away by the daily torment.

"Shen Zhixia, you will soon get what you want."

"What do you mean?"

She turned to look at me in shock, clearly noticing that something was wrong with me.

Just then, other drivers behind her honked their horns, urging her to hurry up. Shen Zhixia could only suppress her doubts and continue driving.

She questioned me as she drove.

"Ji Nanchen, what did you mean by what you just said? Does that mean Pei Jin isn't dead?"

"Impossible, I was the one who personally took him to the crematorium back then, he..."

I clenched my fists at my sides, glancing sideways at the scenery rushing past the car window, a bitter smile playing on my lips. "It's not that he didn't die, it's that I'm about to die."

When Shen Zhixia heard what I said, she laughed out loud as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Ji Nanchen, you don't actually think that if you make up a lie to deceive me, I'll feel sorry for you dying young and then go home and live a good life with you, do you?"

"Let me tell you, even if a disgusting and gloomy person like you dies, I won't be sad. I'll even set off firecrackers to celebrate your early demise!"

Her words fell like thunder, each syllable deafening. My throat tightened, and I didn't know what to say.

I never expected her to be sad because of my death, but hearing it with my own ears was extremely heartbreaking.

I lowered my eyes and whispered, "That's fine too."

We didn't speak again for the rest of the journey.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the house.

Shen Zhixia walked to the passenger seat and stared at me coldly. "Get out of the car."

I wanted to leave this house, but when I heard those words, my mind instinctively followed her instructions, and I opened the car door and got out.

After I got off the bus, I realized what I was doing.

I sighed helplessly and said seriously, "I've already had a lawyer draft the divorce agreement. The house and car are yours, and I'll leave with nothing. We'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete the formalities tomorrow."

Shen Zhixia stared at me intently, remaining silent for a long while before finally uttering a single sentence.

"I will not divorce you unless you die. Otherwise, you should live with guilt for the rest of your life!"

Her words were like a sharp blade piercing my heart, stirring it up violently within me.

The next second, Shen Zhixia turned to look at Butler Zhang, who was already waiting on the side, and coldly gave instructions on what to do next.

"Uncle Zhang, lock him up for me. Don't bother with him for the next two days, and don't let him go out."

"You want to imprison me?"

Before I could be in shock for long, Uncle Zhang had already directed two other servants to help me into our bedroom.

Shen Zhixia stood at the door, looking down at me. "This isn't imprisonment; it's to prevent you from having any improper thoughts."

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Shen Zhixia slammed the door shut.

I lay on the ground, listening to the sound of the key locking the door. My whole body trembled, and I immediately got up and stumbled over to turn the doorknob with all my might.

The door was locked long ago. Only people outside could open the door. As someone with terminal cancer, I had no way to escape.

I turned to look at the bedroom window, only to find that it had already been closed.

I pounded on the door, yelling, "Shen Zhixia, let me out! Imprisoning someone is illegal!"
