My husband, Damian, used my family’s fortune to become a god in the tech world. But he only ever worshipped one person: his childhood sweetheart.
When she shed a tear, he promised vengeance.
He dragged me, pregnant and pleading, to the top floor of his glass tower. He called it my “reflection chamber.” I called it a coffin. He sealed me inside the cold, humming metal and walked away.
My last breath was a prayer for the child he would never know.
I thought that was the end. But in the darkness, I opened my eyes. I was no longer in the cabinet. I was standing beside it, watching.
A ghost, trapped in his world.
Just then, his assistant’s voice crackled through the phone in his hand. “Mr. Blackwood… Mrs. Blackwood… shows no vital signs.”
I watched my husband’s face, waiting for the flicker of horror, of regret. Instead, a slow, cruel smile touched his lips.
“She’s playing games,” he murmured, his eyes glittering with a chilling light. “Contact the crematorium. If she wants to play dead, we’ll show her the consequences.”

What He Did After I Died

Half a month passed. Damian could no longer hide the stench of my rotting corpse. The police came and found Damian crouching beside my body in a daze.


After they investigated, Damian was arrested. When he was escorted out of Elysian Tower, he kept struggling and fighting back. “No one can separate me from Elara!”


Even after he was dragged into the police car, he continued screaming.


Honestly, I did nothing. I just showed him proof of my love for him.


That was the only thing I could do as a ghost.


One week ago, he saw the pregnancy test.


As Sera watched him act like a lunatic, she lost her patience and decided to abandon him. She stole core data from Elysian Dynamics and sold it to their biggest rival before disappearing with a small fortune.


Damian was furious, but his pride wouldn’t allow him to humble himself.


I kept tormenting him, not minding the trouble at all. He soon gained a gaunt look. Then, the pregnancy test fell into his cup.
