Rebirth After Being Betrayed by My Husband by Isabella Reed

Finished

Ethan had already regained consciousness when he overheard his parents discussing two conditions with Lily. Initially, as he opened his eyes, he felt a wave of confusion. Where was he? What had happened? One by one, fragmented memories of the accident began flooding back into his mind.

The first thought that struck him was about his wife. Where was she? She had been waiting for him, and he was supposed to pick her up. Had she heard about the accident? If so, she must have been frantic with

worry.

Unable to move much due to his injuries, Ethan turned his head slightly and realized he was in a hospital. His parents were seated nearby, happily chatting with Lily. Watching the smile on his wife’s face brought a wave of relief to his heart.

Before the accident, he had often worried about whether his parents would accept Lily as their daughter–in- law. He knew they had already chosen someone for him–the daughter of their closest friends. It had been a delicate situation, and Ethan wasn’t sure how things would unfold.

But now, seeing the scene in front of him, he felt a sense of joy and peace. His parents had clearly embraced Lily, and their warm interaction reassured him. It meant the world to him that his wife now had someone to call “Mom” and “Dad,” filling the void of parental love she had missed during her childhood.

Ethan silently promised himself that he would do everything in his power to find her biological parents and reunite them as one big, happy family. Until then, he was grateful that his own parents could provide her with the affection and care she deserved.

For a while, Ethan enjoyed watching the lively atmosphere in the room. The teasing and laughter among his parents and Lily were heartwarming. But as time ticked by, he began to feel a little sour. It had been over ten minutes since he’d woken up, yet no one seemed to notice him.

He watched them joke and pull each other’s legs, completely engrossed in their banter. His lips formed a small pout as he realized his wife’s attention was entirely on them instead of him. The longer it went on, the more he felt like a forgotten patient.

How could they ignore me? he thought indignantly. I’m the one lying here injured, and they’re busy having fun without me? And my wife… how could she let them take her attention away from me?
