Tame Me My Brother -in-Law

Tame Me My Brother -in-Law Chapter 18

Every step that I made as I walked along the corridor of the hospital felt

heavy. My entire body was trembling with misery, remorse, and rage as I

realized what happened.

I had just left Anderson’s hospital and was on my way to the mortuary, where

my mother’s body was being held. The words of Dr. Henry continued to

reverberate in my ear. “She killed herself. Her wrist was injured when the

nurse discovered her in the washroom of the medical facility. She suffered a

significant amount of blood loss, and unfortunately, she did not survive…”

What could possibly have prompted mom to act in such a manner? Why on

earth didn’t she consider me before she did that? Doesn’t she love me? She

remarked that we are each other’s only hope, yet I don’t understand why she

abandoned me. Why?

I came to a stop in front of the mortuary and peered through the glass on the

door. And there I saw a nurse standing beside the hospital bed, covering a

lifeless body with a white cloth.

“Mom…” My throat hurt so much and my eyes were filling up with more tears.

I had the unsettling sensation that someone had just ripped my heart out of

my chest, stomped on it, and pulverized it into nothingness.

I’m starting to doubt myself again whether I have enough strength to see her.

To let go of her.

Tears escaped my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. It hurts so much. It hurts

me to the core that she left me. I wish I had her healed to spend more time

with me. I wish I didn’t leave her this morning.

“I’m sorry for your loss, Miss Lauren…” The doctor held my shoulder gently in

an attempt to comfort me.

But all I could feel was pain. The pain was so great that I wondered how I was

still breathing with it.
