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

"Then call the police!"

As Shen Zhixia's irritated reply rang out, I heard her leave with her entourage.

"Let me out right now, I have things to do tomorrow!"

"Shen Zhixia, we don't have to get a divorce, just open the door first."

……

I leaned against the door and talked a lot. In the end, I curled up in a ball with my back against the door.

Shen Zhixia is only able to act so recklessly because I like her.

She knew I wouldn't call the police and didn't want to drag her into the media storm, so she left so recklessly.

But what she didn't know was that I was really about to die.

I tilted my head back, trying to hold back the tears welling up in my eyes, but as I looked down, they still fell drop by drop.

Not long after, I felt waves of pain in my abdomen again, so I clutched my stomach and rushed into the bathroom to dry heave.

I didn't vomit anything; the pain slowly spread throughout my body.

I stumbled toward the bed, finally collapsing onto it, curling up in a ball, and gradually losing consciousness.

"Ring ring ring."

When I was woken up by my phone ringing, it was already the next morning.

The call was from Meng Jinghuai, probably about my trip to the hospital today.

I helplessly reached out and slid the answer button. Meng Jinghuai's urgent voice came from the phone, echoing throughout the entire bedroom.

"Nan Chen, where have you been? Didn't we agree to come to the hospital for a check-up today?"

I stared at the ceiling in the bedroom and said in a hoarse voice, "I have something to do today, let's talk about the doctor another day."

A series of soft sounds came from the other end of the phone, followed a second later by Su Jinyun's annoyed voice—

"Ji Nanchen, your condition is very bad. You need to be hospitalized as soon as possible, otherwise your condition will deteriorate even faster!"

I looked in the direction of the door with a wry smile.

I originally wanted to cooperate with the treatment to slow down the progression of the disease, but now I can't get out at all.

The person on the other end of the phone waited for a long time without hearing me speak, and when they spoke again, their voice was noticeably louder.

"Ji Nanchen, did you even hear what I said?"

"I'm a bit busy today, I'll go to the hospital in a couple of days."

It was a very simple sentence, but I had to catch my breath several times after I said it.

As an expert in conquering cancer, Su Jinyun immediately sensed something was wrong and keenly asked, "Ji Nanchen, when your condition flares up, are you not taking medication and just trying to tough it out?"

I remained silent and did not answer.

She didn't stop mocking me, saying, "It's good to tough it out. A scumbag like you should experience the torment of illness so you can learn how to be a decent person in your next life!"

"Jinyun, how could you say that about him?"

My good brother couldn't help but speak up for me, "What happened between you two is in the past. You're a doctor now, how could you..."

Before Meng Jinghuai could finish speaking, Su Jinyun interrupted him.

"So what if he's a doctor? Doctors are human too. He treated me like that back then, and now he's ended up like this—it's retribution!"

"He abandoned such a good girl like me to marry a scumbag. Now he's being cuckolded and suffering from illness. This is his retribution for being a scumbag. He deserves to die!"

I remained silent and did not argue; this was all I had to bear.

The next second, Meng Jinghuai's voice, finally losing its temper, rang out, "Enough!"

"Su Jinyun, try to think about it. Is Nan Chen really the kind of scumbag you're describing? If it weren't for you, how could he have carried so much burden? He never..."

Before my good brother could finish speaking, I interrupted him sharply, "Jinghuai, let's not talk about the past anymore."

"I……"

He tried to say something more, but I spoke first: "I'm sorry to Jinyun. If I hadn't broken up with her back then, my life would be a million times better than it is now."

"Hmph, that's good if you know!"

Su Jinyun's haughty voice came through, and I could already imagine her arrogant appearance.

After a while, Meng Jinghuai suddenly said, "She's gone."

"Ah."

I responded weakly and numbly closed my eyes.

I don't know if it's because I've been in a dark room for too long, but I feel like my mind is getting a little muddled.

Meng Jinghuai's deep voice rang in my ears. He said, "Nan Chen, it wasn't your fault that you left Jin Yun back then. Why didn't you explain to her and just let her insult you?"

I opened my dry eyes and tightened my grip on my phone slightly.

“I heard you say the other day that she’s doing quite well now, while I’m about to die. There’s no need for her to know why I left back then, so she won’t be sad about my departure.”

"it is good."

Meng Jinghuai responded softly, then turned to ask me, "Nanchen, you're not the type to break promises. Did something happen today that kept you busy?"

I was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly and made up an excuse to brush him off.

"I made a last-minute appointment with a very good lawyer today to discuss the divorce agreement. I'm afraid that if I don't get a divorce soon, I won't be able to let her go."

As expected, what I said silenced my good brother.

After I explained that it would definitely be over the day after tomorrow, he gave in to me, told me to take my medicine properly, and then hung up the phone.

As soon as I hung up the phone, I struggled to turn over and lie on my side, curling up into a ball again.

For some reason, I suddenly felt a chill in the whole room, and my abdomen started to ache again.

I took a deep breath, burrowed under the covers, and tried to convince myself that I would be fine after a good night's sleep.

Once I wake up, two days will have passed, and I'll be able to go out.

Two days later, I heard the sound of a key turning at the door. I turned my head wearily and saw the glamorous Shen Zhixia.

She stood in the light, a smile playing on her lips, clearly in a very pleasant mood.

I lay in the dark room, watching her appear like a ray of light, but I knew perfectly well that she was no longer my light.

She reached out and pressed the switch, and the glaring light instantly illuminated the entire room, causing me to instinctively close my eyes.

"Ji Nanchen, what are you up to now?"

Shen Zhixia frowned and walked to the bedside, then yanked the blanket off me.

A gust of outside air blew in, and I flinched, weakly shifting to the side.

I didn't miss the fleeting shock in Shen Zhixia's eyes. Just as I was wondering if she was worried about me, her cold and disgusted voice rang out in the room.

She said, "Ji Nanchen, get up! What are you pretending for?"

I stared at her dazedly, opened my mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

I also remembered to go to the hospital for my appointment, but at that moment I was extremely weak and didn't even have the strength to move.

When Shen Zhixia saw that I was not moving, it was as if she finally realized that something was wrong with me. She turned around and ran towards the door, shouting as she ran, "Uncle Zhang, quickly call an ambulance."
