Mark left the clay sculpture store, holding the gift I gave him, wandering aimlessly through
the streets.
Like a walking corpse.
“Mr. Hamilton! I finally found you!” The Hamilton engineer rushed over, handed him a
stack of data reports, and said anxiously “Mr

stack of data reports, and said anxiously, “Mr.
Hamilton, please take Mrs. Hamilton to the
hospital for a full body checkup, the more
detailed the better!”
Mark’s mind was muddled. “What do you
mean?”
The engineer was nearly in tears.
“Today there has been a breakthrough in Al
robot modification technology. The materials
used in Mrs. Hamilton’s transformation have
extremely serious side effects. They are not
materials for immortality! If she is frequently
injured, or if she herself develops a world-
weary mood, the consequences will be
unimaginable!”
“What will happen?” Mark forced himself to

focus, his hands trembling as he flipped
through the materials.
“In mild cases, she will fall into a coma and
become a vegetable for life. In severe cases,
it will accelerate organ failure, and she will be
beyond repair!”
The documents slipped from his grasp, and
Mark stared blankly at the engineer, unwilling
to believe this cruel reality.
“You’re lying to me, right? Tell me you’re lying
to me, tell me! My wife can live a long life, tell
me!”
The engineer’s jaw dropped in surprise.
Seeing Mark’s state, he instantly understood
く
what had happened.
“Mr. Hamilton, quickly take Mrs. Hamilton to
the lab. If she’s just unwell now, I might be
able to save her. It’ll be too late if we wait any
longer!”
I stood by and listened quietly.
It was already too late.
As if seeing hope, Mark didn’t dare to ask if
she could be saved if she was already dead.
He just ran towards the hospital.

But what awaited him wasn’t good news, but
the doctor’s cold report.
“Mr. Hamilton, the genetic test results of the
body are out. It’s Mrs. Hamilton ”

Mark swayed and almost collapsed.
The doctor supported him and continued his
unfinished words, “We also examined the
stillborn baby. It was your and Mrs. Hamilton’s
child, and it is no longer viable for blood
transfusion to Miss Collins.”
Everything settled, Mark finally closed his
eyes and fainted.
When he woke up and wanted to take my
body back to the lab, he heard the doctor
say, “Mrs. Hamilton’s body has been sent to
the crematorium by Miss Collins.”
He bolted upright from the bed, grabbed his
car keys, and sped to the crematorium.

But before he saw my body, he saw Sarah
standing in the payment hall.
“You bitch, what did you do to Emily?! Give
Emily back to me!”
Sarah’s eyes flashed with coldness, and she
chuckled silently. “You brought this upon
yourself. You’re married, yet you still seduced
- me. You’ll never see Emily again in this
lifetime!”
“Bitch!” Mark raised his arm and slapped her
hard.
Sarah fell to the ground, the blood from the
corner of her mouth unstoppable.
Mark watched coldly, his chest heaving.

home.”
I followed him, wanting to snatch my urn, but
to no avail.
Mark had lost his soul and walked across the
road towards our villa in the wealthy district,
hugging my urn.
The drivers who slammed on their brakes to
avoid him were so scared that they kicked
open their car doors, wanting to confront him.
But they were eventually deterred by his
deathly pale face.
“Tsk! Unlucky!” They finally muttered, got
back in their cars, and drove away.
The police arrived soon after and, following
the direction he left, quickly stopped him.
“Sir, someone reported that you intentionally
injured someone. Please come with us.”
