Pregnant, I Was Forced to Jump into the Icy Water. Later, When He Heard the News of My Death, He Regretted It Chapter 1

My husband had a small family with a female celebrity outside our marriage.

He took her to all the parties and introduced her to his friends. His friends even called her "sister-in-law."

The celebrity was spoiled by him. She hung on his neck and said, "I dropped my necklace in the water."

As soon as she said this, my husband looked at me. I immediately understood that he wanted me to go into the water to retrieve the necklace.

My face turned pale. "No, I can't. I'm pregnant, and it's winter."

He looked at me coldly and said in a low voice, "So what if you're pregnant? It's worth it if it makes Emma smile."

"If you don't find the necklace today, you'll regret it."

I knew he was threatening me using my mother. I didn't resist anymore and walked into the lake step by step.

I don't know how long I searched until my hands and feet were numb, until blood seeped out from under me...

The staff pulled me ashore. As I was losing consciousness, I heard Emma's affected voice.

"Oh, she fainted."

"James, didn't you say she was in good health? Is she faking it?"

"How disgusting, she's on her period and didn't say anything. She smells of blood, so dirty."

Then came the sound of people inhaling sharply. I could feel everyone stepping back in disgust.

I struggled to open my eyes and saw James frowning at me. "She likes to pretend, just leave her here. We don't need to care about her."

Hearing this, the people around me scattered. As they left, they didn't forget to criticize and mock me.

I completely passed out.

When I woke up again, James was sitting by the hospital bed looking at me with boredom.

"Heh, finally decided to wake up? I thought you were going to die."

He yawned.

I looked at James's face, full of sarcasm and contempt, and felt only sadness.

I struggled to speak: "The baby is gone, isn't it?"

James was still smiling, without a trace of pity in his eyes.

"That's right, you lost another child."

This was already the third time.

My heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

The first time was because he encountered an enemy, and I took a knife for him. That knife didn't take my life, but it took my child's life.

The second time was when I discovered he had a home outside with Emma. In that villa, the servants all called her "young madam."

Seeing me cry, James showed no sympathy. He even felt pleased.

"Someone like you can cry?"

"Are you crying purely for the death of that child, or because you can't keep a child to secure your position as Mrs. Pei?"

Look at this. Prejudice in the heart is like a mountain.

He despised me. Even when I cried for losing a child, he thought it was because of my position as his wife.

Emma walked in at this moment. She swayed her hips, full of charm, and walked gracefully to James's side.

She held his arm, with a coquettish and lovely smile on her face. But her eyes kept glancing at me, full of contempt and provocation.

"James, why does she look so awful? It's just losing a child."

"She looks like she's dying. Is she deliberately seeking sympathy?"

Emma's voice was so sweet it could drip water. James seemed to enjoy it very much.

As if deliberately putting on a show for me, he even affectionately tapped her nose.

"Maybe my darling is right. Isn't Olivia always a scheming person?"

I didn't feel as angry and intolerable as I had imagined. In the past, when he said such things about me, it was painful to breathe.

Now I could even laugh out loud. People always change. Just as James, who once cared for me so much, had changed beyond recognition.

I knew why he hated me. It wasn't just him hating me; I hated myself too.

Emma was still smiling sweetly. "James, let's go. Weren't you going to accompany me to the auction?"

But unexpectedly, James didn't move. Under Emma's puzzled gaze, James kissed her forehead.

"Be good, go by yourself. I need to stay with her."

"Why!" Emma was dissatisfied and glared at me.

But I was already numb, lying on the hospital bed without any reaction.

James quickly comforted her. "Because there are reporters outside. For the sake of the company, I have to put on a show."

Getting this answer, Emma broke into a smile. "Alright then."

They were still chatting and being affectionate, but I was lost in memories.

Five years ago, I encountered a medical dispute at the hospital.
