Half a year after I successfully obtained the divorce certificate from the court, I suddenly received a call from Shanghai. The emergency doctor told me that Jack had an argument with his girlfriend while driving and had a car accident, and was seriously injured. Before entering the operating room, he wanted to say a few words to me, but he was worried that I would reject the call if he used his own mobile phone, so he asked the doctor to call me.

I calmly told the doctor, "He got the wrong number. I don't know this person." Later, I learned from our mutual acquaintances that although Jack survived, the car accident left him with serious sequelae that affected some of his functions. Mona's legs were seriously injured and she had to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. Mona's family pestered Jack and asked him to take care of Mona for the rest of her life. The two got married hastily, but their married life was not happy. Jack, who rarely drank, began to drink heavily and ignored Mona. One day, Jack got drunk and burned paper money in the house, accidentally causing a fire. Neither he nor Mona could escape. And that day was the day he hit me with his car and caused my miscarriage.
