I had been missing for three years, and Gabriel finally remembered me.
He thought I was still throwing a tantrum and kept trying to persuade me: “Mia, I won’t agree to divorce you. You’ve been gone for three years, surely you’ve had enough of being willful. It’s time for you to come back,”
“Mia, Rose is seriously ill, All the doctors in A City told me that only you can perform this surgery. Please come out and do the surgery for Rose, okay?”
My expression was wooden, but hearing these words, I finally showed a hint of emotion.
So Rose was seriously ill.
Gabriel, you only remembered me now?
It’s been three years already?
Before marrying Gabriel, I was a highly reputable doctor. After marrying him, I became the lady of his house.
Every day was spent taking care of Gabriel and handling messes for his family business.
If not for Gabriel’s calls, I would have forgotten that I was once a doctor.
I opened my mouth, wanting to shout loudly, wanting to tell Gabriel that I was in the cellar,

But I could only make a “heh heh sound.

I had lost my tongue long ago.
I began to cry silently, tears wetting my cheeks.
Gabriel continued shouting in the courtyard: “Mia, stop throwing tantrums. Rose is our adopted daughter. How can you bear to see her die so young?”
I remained silent, my face wooden.
What he didn’t know was that Rose had imprisoned me for three years. For three years, I had lived like a dog.
Without a tongue, I could only make low whimpering sounds.
The interior of the mansion was managed by servants arranged by Rose, so no one had discovered me.
Gabriel frowned coldly: “Mia, you’ve gone too far. What kind of tantrum are you throwing? Don’t forget you’re still my wife. All these years, you’ve never fulfilled your duties as a wife.”
“Compared to Rose, you have absolutely no sense of responsibility.”
He snorted in disgust, comparing me unfavorably to Rose.
Gabriel felt a hint of unease. He had investigated his wife Mia’s whereabouts and found that she hadn’t left the city three years ago.
In the end, all traces pointed to this cellar.
But would Mia, a person with severe germaphobia, hide in a cellar for three years?
This was clearly impossible.
Gabriel took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his nose and mouth, as if something was bothering him.
The closer he got to the cellar, the stronger the strange smell became.
He called out a few times but heard no response. His impatience reached its peak.
“Send a few men to break down the cellar door. I want to see what’s inside that could keep her hidden for three years.”
Gabriel sneered, his eyes full of disgust.
“Maybe her lover is in there.”
With a loud “boom“, the bodyguards went forward to check, but then turned back to report: “Mr. Gu, there’s a specially made iron door inside. We can’t break it down.”
Hearing this, Gabriel was stunned, then flew into a rage.
As if he had caught me in some wrongdoing.
He continued shouting into the cellar: “Mia, I knew you were hiding in there. I never specially renovated the cellar in this mansion. It must be you in there!”
“Continue, continue breaking it down. I want to see what Mia’s lover looks like.”
He seemed to have completely forgotten that he was the one who cheated first, and instead was bent on catching evidence of me having an affair.
I curled my lips, moving the iron nails in my face, causing festering blood to flow out.
Gabriel, when you personally see me in this miserable state, will you regret indulging Rose?
After a bout of violent demolition, the cellar was opened. Fresh air rushed in for the first time in years.

“Mr. Gu, it’s open. But it’s filthy and stinks inside. It doesn’t look like a place where someone could live.”
The bodyguard casually glanced around at the entrance.
“Do you want to go in and check yourself?”
Gabriel frowned, not believing it. He wanted to search the place himself.
But just as he was about to step into the cellar…
“Mr. Gu, the hospital called. Miss Rose’s condition has worsened.”
Gabriel’s face changed dramatically, his voice trembling.
“Let’s go to the hospital. Rose’s condition is urgent.”
“Mia, you’d better come out voluntarily to perform surgery on Rose, or I’ll never let you off for anything.”
His eyes were only for Rose. Even as he left the cellar, he had to leave those harsh words for Rose’s sake.
As I heard the footsteps moving further away from me, I became anxious.
I started making whimpering sounds with all my strength. Help!
Gabriel, I’m just a few steps behind you. Gabriel, if you just turn around, you’ll see me.
But having not eaten for days, I quickly ran out of strength to call out.
A wave of dizziness completely enveloped me.
But Gabriel didn’t notice the commotion behind him at all. Instead, he walked towards the hospital without stopping.
My vital signs began to disappear.
