Rebirth After Being Betrayed by My Husband

Chapter 119

** Finisher

After completing all the necessary formalities, Lily returned to the waiting area and sat quietly next to Mira. Closing her eyes, she clasped her hands together, silently praying for Ethan and the driver’s recovery.

Every passing minute felt like an eternity, and her heart pounded erratically with worry. Sitting outside the operation theater, it seemed as if time itself had come to a halt. The anxiety was unbearable, and with each tick of the clock, her fears grew.

As she sat there, Lily’s thoughts spiraled, leading her to a profound realization–her love for Ethan was deeper than she had ever imagined. It wasn’t just affection or admiration; it was an all–encompassing, soul- deep connection. She couldn’t imagine a life without him. The thought of losing him made her feel like the ground beneath her was slipping away.

In her past life, she had loved Ryan, or so she thought, but that love paled in comparison. What she felt for Ethan was incomparable. He had brought a wholeness to her life that she never knew was missing. With him, she felt truly alive.

As she reflected, Lily realized how fragile life could be. Waiting outside the operation theater, she learned a valuable lesson: when you love someone, you should never hesitate to tell them. Life was unpredictable, and the chance to express your feelings might not always come again.

She felt fortunate that Ethan’s injuries weren’t life–threatening, but all she wanted now was for him to open his eyes. She wanted to hold him close and confess how much he meant to her. She wanted him to know that he wasn’t just her husband; he was her world.

A little while later, familiar voices filled the waiting area. James, Parker, Mia, and Ivy arrived, their faces etched with worry. Assistant Ben approached them and quickly brought them up to speed on Ethan’s condition. The group then made their way to Lily.

“Sister–in–law, are you okay?” Parker asked gently.

Lily nodded faintly, her eyes never leaving the operation theater doors. “I’m fine,” she replied softly, though her voice lacked strength.

Ivy, the youngest of the group, couldn’t hold back her tears. She rushed forward and hugged Lily tightly. “Sister–in–law,” she sobbed, “nothing’s going to happen to my brother, right?”

Lily pulled back slightly, holding Ivy’s tear–streaked face in her hands. “Ivy, don’t cry,” she said firmly, though her own voice wavered. “Nothing will happen to him. He’s strong. He’ll come back to us.” She wiped Ivy’s tears and gently rubbed her back, trying to comfort her.

Despite her inner turmoil, Lily knew she had to stay strong, not just for herself but for everyone around her. She couldn’t let her fear show.
