Only After I Died, Did She Say She Loved Me1

When I was brutally mutilated by the thugs, my wife was feeding her childhood sweetheart mouth-to-mouth.

Before I died, enduring excruciating pain, I managed to make a final call to her with my remaining arm, only to hear her cold, mocking voice.

"What, do you want to seek my forgiveness?"

"Dream on! It's your jealousy that triggered Calvin's heart condition. I'm done with your pettiness. Unless you die, I'll never forgive you!"

As the call was cut off, I closed my eyes in despair.

The next day, my wife, desperate to find a heart for her beloved, pulled some strings and miraculously acquired one.

Little did she know, that heart came from me.

Later, as the top forensic expert, she spent an entire day meticulously identifying my dismembered body parts but never found my heart.

***

Two days after my death, someone reported finding an unidentified object in a dumpling shop.

After hearing the news, the police quickly sealed off the scene and confiscated all the meat for examination.

That same day, my wife, Sofia Smith, known as a forensic prodigy, swiftly identified that a third of the samples were human flesh.
