Blurb：
After my brutal dismemberment, my spirit remained tethered to my daughter Annie’s side. When Annie was diagnosed with leukemia, Director Smith urgently contacted Ethan about the $300,000 surgery fee. Ethan’s heartless response: “Where would I get that kind of money? Why don’t you go find her wretched mother Lily. Besides, what does it matter if that little brat dies?” Without timely treatment, Annie died at the orphanage. When Ethan finally arrived, his phone sticker revealed his remarriage and new family. He coldly dismissed Annie’s corpse as “a silicone dummy” in some scheme orchestrated by Lily. Despite Director Smith’s outrage, Ethan callously declared, “Good that she’s dead! That wretched woman Lily is a bitch. Any child she spawned would only grow up to be scum anyway!” Unbeknownst to him, my ghost had witnessed every moment of Annie’s suffering. I watched helplessly as my daughter cried out for me during her painful nights, unable to comfort her. Ethan’s final act of carrying away Annie’s lightweight body in a bag symbolized his complete rejection of his own daughter. A haunting tale of parental betrayal from beyond the grave.
Content：
After I was dismembered, my spirit has been staying by my daughter’s side.
In the second year after my death, Annie was diagnosed with leukemia and urgently needed surgery.
The director notified Ethan to prepare three hundred thousand dollars for the surgery fees.
But the response was, Three hundred thousand? Where would I get that kind of money? Why don’t you go find her wretched mother.
“Besides, what does it matter if that little brat dies?”
In the end, because she didn’t receive timely surgery, Annie died in the orphanage.
The director called, requesting the next of kin to come claim the body.
But Ethan didn’t believe it. He even thought it was a scheme I arranged to extort child support.
What he didn’t know was that my daughter and I were truly already dead…….
The day after Annie died.
Ethan finally couldn’t stand the director’s incessant calls and impatiently came to the orphanage.
From the sticker on his phone, I learned that he had remarried.
And even had his own child.
My heart inexplicably twitched.
No wonder he arrived so late.
It turned out he already had a second family……
As soon as he entered, he kept checking his watch, clearly unwilling to stay long.
“Isn’t that little brat dead? Where’s the body?”
The director sighed and took him to the morgue.
Annie’s body lay quietly under a white sheet.
Ethan stepped forward and yanked the sheet off Annie.
Annie’s eyes were closed.
Her body, due to long-term malnutrition, looked extremely thin and small.
Seeing my daughter again, my tears couldn’t help but fall.
But Ethan snorted coldly with disdain.
“Not bad. This time the act is more convincing. At least you knew to use a silicone dummy.”
He turned to Director Smith, “That wretched woman Lily must have given you a lot of money, right? A silicone model like this would cost a lot.”
His words stunned both me and Director Smith.
Annie was lying right here, yet he still thought it was some play I had devised to get money from him.
I wanted to rush to him and tell him the whole truth.
But I was already dead.
I could no longer make a sound.
I could no longer touch this world.
“What?”
Director Smith looked at him in disbelief, his eyes turning bloodshot with anger.
“Annie is dead! If you weren’t her father, why would I call you!”
Ethan shot him a look of disgust, his face remaining impassive. “Good that she’s dead! That wretched woman Lily is a bitch. Any child she spawned would only grow up to be scum anyway!”
Director Smith seemed shocked by his words.
“Mr. Ethan, Annie is your own daughter! How can you say that?”
Hearing this, Ethan laughed. “My own daughter? I have no such brat!”
He looked around as if searching for me.
Not seeing me, he walked to Annie’s bedside.
He sneered coldly, “What a good show! Look, even though you’re dead, your mother doesn’t come to see you. How pathetic……”
His words made my heart ache.
But he didn’t know that I had always been guarding my daughter.
It’s just that no one could see me.
Since I was dismembered a year ago, my spirit had been staying by my daughter’s side.
Every moment, I was with her.
Every night, seeing my daughter writhing in pain from illness broke my heart.
Especially hearing her helplessly cry out my name each time made me weep.
But I was dead, I could no longer hold or comfort her.
I could only watch helplessly as she endured endless torment.
At that moment, I desperately wished Ethan would appear suddenly to accompany to accompany our daughter.
But until her death, Ethan never showed up.
Perhaps he never considered Annie his daughter…….
“Since Lily isn’t showing up, I’ll take this little brat’s body back.”
Ethan glanced at his daughter’s corpse, his eyes filled with even more disgust.
Director Smith didn’t stop him. After all, Annie was Ethan’s daughter.
It was only right for the father to take his daughter’s remains.
Annie was already small and thin, after death, she weighed almost nothing.
Ethan effortlessly carried her out in a body bag.
But I was worried and quietly followed.
What I never expected was that as soon as Ethan left the orphanage, he threw the body bag containing Annie into the garbage dump behind the orphanage.
“Lily, you think you can fool me with a silicone model?”
“Don’t think hiding will save you!”
“If I find you and your brat, I’ll make you pay!”
But I had no attention for his threats.
Because I saw several wild dogs pouncing on Annie.
No!
I lunged forward like a madwoman, a spectral force trying to block the beasts.
But I was just a spirit.
I didn’t belong to this world.
I could only watch helplessly as the wild dogs bit into my daughter’s body……
I screamed in despair, begging for Ethan would hear my silent plea.
“Ethan, save our daughter! Please save our daughter!”
I knelt on the ground, wailing soundlessly.
But it was useless.
A wild dog had already bitten off Annie’s arm.
Blood covered the ground.
The crimson blood seemed to sting Ethan’s eyes.
But he still refused to believe his daughter was dead.
“So realistic, even using fake blood.”
“Too bad, even if it were real, I wouldn’t care.”
“What else could come from such a vicious woman but trash!”
Ethan’s words tore me.
I never imagined his hatred for me ran so deep.
But the child is innocent! She is your own daughter……..
I screamed in my heart over and over, praying for some shred of humanity to awaken in him.
But nothing. Until Annie’s body was devoured by the wild dogs, he didn’t step forward.
The wild dogs’ barking must have been loud. Director Smith stumbled over.
When he saw only Annie’s head remained, he turned and vomited.
Tears welled in his eyes.
“Ethan…….”
He was too overcome with emotion to form a complete sentence.
Ethan, seeing the director, was still smug about exposing my scheme.
“Good attempt this time, but you still can’t fool me. Tell Lily to stop these clumsy tricks.”
“If she doesn’t show up by Mom’s memorial day, she’ll regret it!”
Director Smith seemed shocked by Ethan’s harsh words, his face a mask of disbelief.
But Ethan had already turned and walked away.
Seeing my daughter’s mutilated remains, I couldn’t reconcile this man with the one I had once loved so deeply.
Drifting away from the dump, my spirit followed the direction Ethan had gone.
The car stopped in front of a villa.
As Ethan got out and approached the door, I saw a pregnant woman walking toward him.
When I recognized her, my heart sank!
Kate, Ethan’s ex.
After Ethan and I got together, she had hounded me relentlessly. She’d say a woman like me, trash from the bottom of society, didn’t deserve Ethan.
I didn’t want to bother with her, but she kept causing scenes at the clinic where I worked.
She spread rumors that I was a quack, severely disrupting my life.
Not only that, she even threatened to cripple my hands.
At first, Ethan always protected me, even fighting others for me.
But I never expected they’d get back together.
And even have a child together.
This was beyond my expectations.
“You’re back? How did it go over there?”
As soon as Ethan entered, Kate went up to ask.
I knew she meant me and Annie.
“The director said the little brat died, even made a fake corpse model. It’s just another one of that wretched woman’s schemes.”
“Now that she’s hiding, it proves how cunning she is.”
Ethan said through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, Kate looked uneasy, “What if she and Annie are really dead?”
Listening to Kate, I wondered how Ethan would respond.
Before, he treated Annie as his treasure.
He spent more time with her, was more attentive to her than I could ever be.
I once thought we’d be together forever like that.
But now, the daughter he once cherished was called a brat.
His next words plunged me deeper into despair.
“Good if she’s dead, I’ll throw a party to celebrate.”
Tears silently fell from my eyes.
It seemed nothing could go back.
That night, Kate went into labor.
She gave birth to a daughter, whose features resembled Ethan’s.
Ethan was overjoyed, holding the child, unwilling to let go.
Just like how he once was with Annie.
But why did it have to be Kate?
Ethan, Ethan, don’t you know this woman is the real murderer who killed your mother!
How could you…….
I rushed to tell him the truth.
But I was dead, I could do nothing.
Ethan stayed in the room awhile until his company called. Reluctantly, he prepared to leave.
Then a doctor came over with some documents, looking grim.
“What’s wrong?”
Ethan asked anxiously.
The doctor sighed, “Mr. Ethan, the test results show the child has a congenital heart defect. Without a timely transplant, she might not live past ten.”
“Then transplant! Money is no object.”
Ethan was frantic.
His desperation for this child was a cruel mirror of the concern he’d once shown for Annie.
Both his own, yet treated so differently.
“Mr. Ethan, please, it’s not that simple. Finding a matching heart for a newborn is extremely sifficult. It must be from a child under six.”
Ethan thought for a moment, seeming to remember something. He turned to the doctor, “That’s not a problem; I have a way.”
After the doctor left, Ethan called a bodyguard.
“Go back to NewYork, no matter what, find that wretched woman and the brat.”
In an instant, I understood his horrific plan. He wanted to take Annie’s heart for this new child.
I never expected Ethan to be so cruel.
Ethan walked to the window, staring out with a terrifying coldness in his eyes.
“Lily, don’t blame me, this is what you owe me. Your daughter’s life for Joey’s is fair.”
Looking at this man I once loved, I was filled with a bitter despair.
I couldn’t clear my name while I was alive, it was hopeless now in death.
After all these years, he still believed I killed his mother.
The day his mother was buried, he pressed me before her grave, snarling, “Lily! This life, I’ll make you wish you were dead!”
