My Husband Faked His Death Chapter 05

Jake rushed toward me, grabbed me in a tight hug, and called my name, his voice shaking.
“Mia, you don’t know how much I missed you.”
“That day I fell skiing. Multiple fractures. Lucky for me, some kind people took me to the hospital. I had to recover for three months before I could see you.”
“I’m not dead. See? I’m fine.”
He took my hand and ran it over his body, as if to prove he really had been missing, really had been on the edge of death.
I just watched him act, coldly.
When he finally started to feel awkward, I laughed.
“Are you done?”
“That kind person who took you to the hospital—her name is Lily?”
Jake’s expression froze, inch by inch. His lips moved, forcing a helpless smile. “Mia, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
I looked at his feigned confusion. The hurt and anger I’d held in for three months finally broke loose. I slapped him across the face.
“You hid for three months. Why not keep hiding?”
“Weren’t you going to wait until I’d gone crazy looking for you before showing up? I’m not crazy yet. Why are you here?”
He stared at me blankly. “How do you know?”
I smiled. “I know a lot more.”
