CEO's Reborn Wife

Joseph Shaw came back three days later.

The last time he contacted James Black, Jillian Carter was just missing and was being searched for.

When he was waiting at the airport, with internet access, he went online and discovered that the news of Jillian Carter’s death was overwhelming.

Joseph Shaw had seen too much life and death in his life.

He had personally seen his teammates die in front of him during critical moments.

He had also personally taken away the lives of countless villains.

Especially during the period after the divorce when he went abroad, encountering those most dangerous days, he saw so many dead bodies that he almost became numb to it. The word ’death’ always seemed to him as light as a feather.

Even when he stepped out of the border, he had already prepared himself for death.

But he never thought that the one to die before him would be Jillian Carter.

The one he believed to still be very happy in the country, Jillian Carter.

Clearly, the last time he held his mobile phone and looked at Twitter, he saw her shopping every day like nothing was wrong, even if she was criticized every day on the hot search, she still tirelessly wandered through major markets, reaping full rewards each day.

Later, he uninstalled Twitter and then went to a place without internet.

It seemed as if he lived through a period of utter darkness, when suddenly he received the news that Jillian Carter had jumped into the river with her life or death unknown. Then, came the news of Jillian Carter’s death.

This was the first time Joseph Shaw felt such a heavy emotion from the word death.

The airplane landed at the airport, and James Carter, with his assistant, met Joseph Shaw at the airport gate.

It seemed like even though it had only been tens of days, Joseph Shaw had changed a lot.

”She...” Joseph Shaw sat in the car, took a long, long time before speaking, ”Where is Jillian now?”

”Funeral home.” said James Carter, ”She was submerged in water for a long time, and can’t wait much longer before cremation. Luckily, you made it back in time.”

If they waited a few more days, I’m afraid they wouldn’t have been able to wait.

Two hours later, the car stopped in front of the funeral home gate.

Joseph Shaw felt as if his legs were nailed to the car, unable to move.

The black and white funeral home, even the flowers at the gate were white chrysanthemums.

The only bit of difference in color were those wreaths.

”Get out of the car.” James Carter heavily patted Joseph Shaw’s shoulder, ”Let’s send her on her last journey.”

After speaking, James Carter was the first to slowly get out of the car, supporting himself with a cane.

It was only after a few minutes that Joseph Shaw got out of the car and followed James Carter step by step inside.

The mortuary beautician had already dressed Jillian Carter’s remains again and again, but even under the skillful hands of the mortuary beautician, it was hard to hide the pallor of her lifeless body.

That was the pallor of lost blood.

Joseph Shaw looked at the person lying quietly inside, who would never hysterically argue and quarrel with him again, and he gently called, ”Jillian, I’m back.”

This call was very gentle, as if afraid of waking someone who was asleep.

But this person would never answer him again.

The tears of Joseph Shaw fell, drop by drop.

He would rather Jillian Carter could continue to irrationally scold him as useless, would rather Jillian Carter could continue to unreasonably demand him to help drive away Jane Sampson.

Than to see her lying lifeless here, awaiting the final end.

”These are Jillian’s belongings, I think Jillian would want to give these things to you. If you don’t want them, let these things be buried with Jillian.” Granny Carter handed Joseph Shaw Jillian Carter’s mobile phone and some other stuff.
