Betrayal on the Operating Table

2026-03-04

The moment the anesthesia wore off, I heard my mother-in-law kneeling beside the bed, begging, "Give the only heart to the grandson!" It was then I understood—the 'six-year-old son' was never mine, and my chest cavity was being reserved as a parts warehouse. The ventilator beeped like a ticking countdown; yet beneath the white sheets, tears of bitter laughter welled in my eyes. The divorce papers remained unsigned, but they had already signed my death certificate. Unfortunately, those who crawl out of coffins are often death-seeking spirits.收起

Chapter 1 of "Betrayal on the Operating Table"

When the sharp scent of disinfectant filled my nostrils, I thought I was already dead. My consciousness felt like it was sinking into the depths of the ocean, surrounded by endless darkness—until a sharp chemical scent pierced through the chaos, giving me a faint glimmer of being alive. The monitor's steady beeping was like a dull blade, slicing through my nerves with each pulse. Each sound carried a cold, relentless rhythm, a grim reminder of the battle raging within my body. I struggled to open my eyes; the ceiling was blindingly white, light filtering through my blurry vision and casting harsh glare spots across my retinas. "She's awake! Dr. Lynn, she's awake!" The nurse's panicked voice shattered the silence of the hospital ward. My eyes fixed on my mother-in-law, Hanna Carter, her face swollen and bloated. She lunged at the bedside, her gaunt hand gripping my wrist with a strength that felt as if she might crush my bones. A sharp sting sprang from where her skin met mine, making me wince. "Rachel, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!" Her tears splashed onto the back of my hand, hot and sticky. The warmth unsettled me, like insects crawling beneath my skin. I parted my lips, my throat dry and raw, as if scraped by sandpaper. The nurse handed me a cotton swab dampened with water; just as the moistness began to spread, a name broke through the haze—Bruce. "Bruce..." I croaked, each word wrenching pain through my chest, as if a thread inside was being cruelly pulled.
