After My Son Died My Husband Went Crazy by Davidmia

Chapter 9 

The police had basically identified the suspect and came to me for more details. 

I was shocked to learn that my son hadn’t accidentally drowned but was pushed into the river. At first, I hadn’t suspected foul play. 

However, the man they hired couldn’t withstand the pressure from the online uproar and turned himself in. 

The mastermind, to my astonishment, was Avery Moore. 

With the evidence laid out, she had no room to deny it.

“But even after your son’s death, he still wouldn’t divorce you. That’s when I realized how wrong I had been. It wasn’t your son stopping him. It was… it was because he loved you all along.” 

Her revelation left me utterly speechless.

But love? 

That was something I never believed he felt for me.
