His Heart Is Now Elsewhere

Chapter 1

I had a crush on my uncle, Brennan Krueger, but he wasn’t related to me by blood.

When I was twenty, Brennan’s fiancée, Brittany Harding, accidentally discovered hundreds of love

letters in my drawer. She found out my secret.

Brittany forced Brennan to send me abroad to study, but I had to drop out and come back because I developed a huge tumor in my

abdomen.

She slandered me by claiming I carried someone’s baby and wanted to secretly give birth at home.

Brennan asked her to take me for an abortion, then locked me up in the house as punishment.

She mistakenly thought that when Brennan went abroad last time, I took the opportunity to get pregnant with his baby. So she threw me into an unlicensed clinic and had someone cut open my

belly to remove the baby.

She only realized that there was a tumor in my stomach, but she just had someone sew up my belly

and throw me into the house to fend for myself.

I struggled for nearly half a year, and Brennan never came to see me once.

A year after I died, he finally discovered the skeleton in the house.

But he didn’t investigate it and continued to live his happy married life.
