The Love Turns to Ashes

"Six weeks pregnant, but..."
The doctor hesitated, handing me the examination report with a serious expression. "Lin Weiwei, your situation is very special. The cancer is already in the advanced stage, and pregnancy will only worsen your condition. I recommend that you..."
"I understand."
I numbly took the diagnosis, my fingertips icy, a wave of nausea rising in my stomach, nearly making me vomit.
The child, my child... arriving under such circumstances.
I stumbled out of the hospital, the biting cold wind swirling with snowflakes, slapping against my face and bringing a bone-chilling chill.
At that moment, my phone buzzed with a news alert—
"CEO Gu Han returns home with popular actress Shen Mengyao, rumored to be on the verge of good news."
Gu Han, my husband.
Just two months ago, he had gently wrapped his arms around my waist, whispering that he would love me forever and that I was his one true love.
I had been foolish enough to believe him, rejecting his proposal for a divorce, even... fantasizing about growing old together.
Shen Mengyao, that hysterical woman from my wedding day, Gu Han's childhood sweetheart, the one who claimed Gu Han was hers.
Now, she finally got what she wanted.
I gripped the diagnosis tightly, the veins on the back of my hand bulging, my nails nearly digging into my flesh.
Almost instinctively, I drove to another apartment of Gu Han.
I trembled as I pressed the doorbell, and Shen Mengyao opened the door wearing Gu Han's shirt, a victorious smile on her face.
"Oh, isn't this Lin Weiwei? What a rare guest," she said with a tone of disdain, as if I were an unwelcome visitor.
"Where is Gu Han?" I managed to squeeze out the words through clenched teeth.
"Him? He's on a business trip," Shen Mengyao replied dismissively, then slammed the door shut with a bang, as if even looking at me was disgusting.
I leaned against the door in despair, tears silently streaming down my face.
After three years of marriage, I had poured all my love and care into him, only to end up with such a conclusion.
I felt like a fool, toyed with in his hands, naively believing that he would stay for me.
Back home, I collapsed helplessly onto the sofa, letting my tears flow freely.
Memories of Gu Han flashed through my mind continuously.
We had been married for three years, a union arranged by our families.
At first, he was extremely cold to me, like a stranger.
But then, a sudden car accident changed the dynamics of our relationship.
In that car accident, I sustained a severe head injury while trying to protect him, and I fell into a coma for an entire week.
When I woke up, he seemed like a different person, caring for me with tenderness and thoughtfulness. I thought that my sincerity had finally moved him, that time had nurtured feelings between us.
I had a dream in which Gu Han proposed to me.
With flickering candlelight and vibrant roses, he knelt on one knee, looking deeply into my eyes as he said, "Marry me."
We envisioned our future together, dreaming of a happy life as a family of three.
I even began to plan for the time when our child would be born, imagining taking him to the places we once promised to visit—to watch the sunrise, to see the sunset, and to gaze at the starry sky…
But then I woke from the dream, and the cold reality struck me like a plunge into an icy abyss.
I touched the pillow that was already soaked with tears, my heart aching like it was being cut apart.
The diamond ring on my ring finger sparkled with dazzling light, but at that moment it felt like sharp knives piercing my heart. I struggled to take off the Wedding Ring and threw it away.
Those once-sweet memories had turned into excruciating pain.
We had loved each other so deeply, weathered so many storms together, yet now everything had changed; it was as if all that remained were fleeting illusions.
