The Disappeared Wife 

Chapter

When I heard Jason was trapped in a burning 

haunted house, I didn’t hesitate

I ran straight in to save him

But I couldn’t find him anywhere

The fire scorched my arm, and the smoke got 

to me, knocking me out cold

When I finally woke up, the first thing I heard 

was a bunch of people laughing

OMG, that’s hilarious! I can’t believe Sarah 

fell for it again.” 

く 

My eyes fluttered open, and I saw Jason 

sitting there looking like a million bucks

He was all cozy with Brittany, his high school 

sweetheart, feeding her grapes

He sure didn’t look like he’d been anywhere 

near a fire

Jason, we’ve totally pranked Sarah, like,

hundred times now

Remember when we told her you were 

kidnapped, and she broke her leg trying to 

rescue you

Or when we said you were poisoned, and she 

went searching for some rare herb in the 

backwoods?” 

This time, we told her you were trapped in

burning building, and she risked her life! Talk 

about a sucker for love.” 

Yeah, well, all that love is wasted. Jason’s 

just playing her. It’ll never go anywhere.” 

Jason stood up, giving me a cold stare

He said, She cheated back in high school

messed with Brittany’s car, so she lost the 

race and everyone made fun of her. Now, it’s 

payback time. Don’t stop. Let’s keep this 

going.” 

Hearing the cruel words of the man I loved,

just lay there in shock

It felt like I’d been plunged into an icy lake; so 

cold it hurt to breathe

I finally understood those melodramatic 

romance movies, the love and hate, the 

tearing each other apart

Jason stood over me, looking down with

sneer

His eyes treated me like trash

My heart twisted, and I clenched my fists, but 

I couldn’t bring myself to confront him

So, all this time, he was just using me for 

revenge

That’s when it hit me why Jason, this rich

aloof, and popular guy, had been chasing 

after a regular race car driver like me for 

く 

I finally fell for him, and that’s when he sprung 

his trap, stomping all over my feelings

Thinking back, I felt pathetic, like I’d been 

living in a bubble, playing the fool, running to 

his rescue while he watched and laughed

He said I’d sabotaged Brittany’s car, which 

was a total lie

Jason put himself through this for years, just 

for her

I couldn’t help it; tears streamed down my 

face as I listened to their taunts

Brittany, you feel better now?” 

Jason cupped Brittany’s face, gently stroking 

her skin

Yeah! Much better. I just feel bad that you 

had to slum it with Sarah all this time.” 

Don’t worry, I never slept with her. I’m all 

yours!” 

Brittany’s eyes lit up, and she hugged Jason 

tight

They spun around in a circle

Really?” 

Yeah, a nobody like her doesn’t deserve me

I wouldn’t touch her!” 

Then, ignoring everyone, they kissed and 

hugged like crazy

く 

Then, ignoring everyone, they kissed and 

hugged like crazy

Everyone else knew to leave, quietly closing 

the door behind them

I gripped the bedsheets, feeling disgusted, as 

the sounds of their actions burned into my 

ears

I just stayed there numb, like a puppet 

without a soul, sinking into the abyss

They went on forever, torturing me with every 

second, as I struggled to break free

When they were finally done, they left 

together

I don’t know where they went

I dragged myself out of bed, my arm 

throbbing from the burn, and gave a bitter 

smile

As a race car driver, my hands and feet are 

everything, and I almost lost a leg and now an 

arm, all trying to save Jason

How ridiculous

Covered in burns, I bolted from the hospital

not stopping until I collapsed on the ground

sobbing uncontrollably

Just then, my cell rang. It was my coach

Sarah, have you made up your mind? I’m still 

waiting to hear back. You’ve got so much 

talent, you shouldn’t give it up! If you agree

く 

we can leave to Europe for training. They 

have the best resources there!” 

I used to care about Jason, and he didn’t 

want me racing, said it was too risky

He said he’d be devastated if anything 

happened to me

I actually believed that crap

Turns out, he wasn’t worried about my safety

he was afraid I’d come back to racing and 

steal Brittany’s spotlight

I swallowed my feelings, trying not to let my 

coach know how messed up I was

Coach, I’m in!” 

く 

But first, I need to fix my foot and hand!” 

You really mean it? Hahaha! It’s fine, no 

problem.” 

I heard there’s some miracle worker over 

there who can fix your leg. So it’s settled, I’ll 

pick you up in three days.” 

I gripped my phone, knuckles turning white

my voice filled with conviction

Okay, I won’t let you down!” 

My coach laughed excitedly, before his voice 

turned serious

You’re not backing out for Jason again, are 

you? He definitely doesn’t want you to leave.” 

く 

He doesn’t matter. If I want to leave, he can’t 

stop me. I want to focus on my career

Nothing else matters.” 

Really?” 

Yep!” 

After a bit of small talk with my coach, I hung 

  1. up

The cold wind cut right through me

As I stood up, Jason called

Before, I’d answer as soon as his name 

flashed on the screen, but now, it just 

sounded like nails on a chalkboard
