Mistress on My Husband's Phone Novel by Rina Novita

Derrick’s P.O.V

“Ms. Johnson’s family?” a nurse came out of the emergency room.

“I’m her husband,” I answered confidently.

“Please come in, sir. The doctor wants to speak with you.”

“Thank you, nurse.” I walked into the doctor’s office, not far from where I was standing.

“How is my wife, doctor?”

“She doesn’t have any serious injuries for now. We are waiting for her to regain consciousness. Her head injury is serious.”

“Can I see her, doctor?”

“Of course, sir.”

1 was lucky to be at the rental unit when the police came to inform me about the accident. Sofia had to ask for my help to check on Sarah at the hospital.

I intentionally didn’t go to the office today. I couldn’t miss this opportunity since Sarah had an accident. But unfortunately, the doctor said there were no serious injuries.

I had better check on her. Maybe I could take advantage of this situation to seize all Sarah’s assets.

Sarah lay weak with her head wrapped in bandages. It seemed the bleeding from her head was quite severe.

‘Why didn’t you just die earlier, dear? So I can easily control your wealth using our daughter, Gillian.‘

“Ahhh!”

I was startled to see Sarah groaning and moving weakly. Slowly, her eyes opened. She looked at me with a blank stare.

“Sarah…”

“Wh–who are you?” she asked, her face expressionless.

‘What? Why doesn’t Sarah recognize me? What’s going on?‘

“Doctor! Nurse! The patient is awake.” I hurried out of the room to call the doctor.

The doctor and several nurses entered the room and examined Sarah.

“Ms. Johnson, how are you feeling?” the examining doctor asked.

Sarah seemed confused.

“What happened to me?” Sarah asked, looking around the room.

“You had an accident this morning, Ms. Johnson. Thankfully, there are no serious injuries. You’re lucky to have a caring husband,” the doctor explained, then smiled at me.

“Husband?” Sarah looked at me again with a confused expression.

*Doctor, it seems my wife doesn’t recognize me. Does she have amnesia?” I asked.

“This could happen due to the head injury. Let’s observe for a few more days. For now, the patient should only see close family members.”

“Okay, doctor. Thank you.”

‘Hooray! She has amnesia! This is my chance to take advantage of the situation.‘

I saw Sarah still looking confused. She didn’t recognize me at all. She looked at me like a stranger.

‘Alright, my arrogant ex, I will repay you for what you did to my family. I will take all your wealth. Haha! Soon, I will be rich.‘

“Sarah, I’m your husband. We have a daughter named Gillian. Do you remember?”

Sarah weakly shook her head. She seemed really to have lost her memory.

“It’s okay, dear. You rest now. I’ll take care of you here. Sleep tight.” I gently patted her head until she fell asleep.

I faintly heard voices outside talking about Sarah.

“Sorry, Ms. Johnson can’t have visitors. Only her husband and close far allowed in,” a nurse explained to them.

“Husband? Ms. Johnson doesn’t have a husband,” replied a man who turned out to be Bradley, who had come with some colleagues,

‘Oh no! Bradley must not meet Sarah. Hopefully, the nurse successfully prevents it/I’d better not go out. I’ll just peek from behind this door?

“Sorry, sir. You must be mistaken. Since this morning, Ms. Johnson’s husband has been by her side. Excuse me.”

Bradley looked confused after the nurse left.

Hah! I would not let anyone see Sarah. I would make the most of this chance before her memory returned,

Sarah was shortly moved to a VIP room. The nurse transferred her there.

It seemed Bradley had taken care of all the medical expenses, Good, I wouldn’t have to worry about that.

“Nurse, please take care of my wife. Don’t let anyone else visit her. I’ll be back soon,”

“Of course, sir,” The nurse nodded.

“Mom! I have great news.” Arriving home, I couldn’t wait to share this happy news with Mom.

“What news, Derrick? Come on, tell met Mom seemed impatient.

“Sarah has amnesia. Hahaha!”

“So what?” Mom frowned.

“I told her I am her husband. And she believed it. This way, we can easily control her life. Especially her wealth.”

“Wow! You are so clever, Derrick.”

Mom and I laughed heartily, imagining a luxurious life and owning a big company.

That’s right. The company must fall into my hands before Sarah’s memory returned.

“We have to move quickly, Mom. Before that arrogant woman regains her memory, we need to take everything.”

“That’s right, Derrick. Tonight, I should stay with Gillian. I must win her over.”

“I’ll return to the hospital. I’m worried someone might visit Sarah and ruin our plan.”

After freshening up, I said goodbye to Mom and returned to the hospital.

I had Sarah’s bag and wallet with me. I should drain her ATM account first. Hopefully, the pin was easy to guess.

It turns out that she’s really foolish. The ATM pin is Gillian’s birthdate. That was really easy to guess. Haha! Both of her accounts are now in my name.‘

Soon, all her assets would be mine too. Tomorrow, I’d make her sign a declaration to transfer everything to me.

With a growing smile, I drove back to the hospital.

“Sarah, have you been awake for a while? I had to pretend to be nice to her so she believed I was her husband.

“Yes, Derrick,” she replied with a faint smile. Maybe she still felt awkward.

“Did anyone come by?”

Sarah shook her head.

Good. That meant I was safe for today.

“Good evening, Mr. Dane. The doctor said Ms. Johnson can be discharged the day after tomorrow. But she needs to rest a lot at home and avoid any strenuous activities,” a nurse explained.

Thank god. Thank you, nurse.*

“Thank you, nurse, Sarah whispered, smiling.

“Dear, you should stay at home until you’re completely healed. Leave the company to me. I’ll manage it.”

*Company?” Sarah looked confused.

“Yes. We have a company we run together. It’s time for you to rest and focus on our daughter. Starting tomorrow, I’ll take care of it. You don’t mind, right?” I tried to convince Sarah.

“Alright, Derrick,” she agreed, nodding.

I succeeded! Tomorrow I would have her sign the papers, so I could take over the company. Bradley wouldn’t be able to do anything with Sarah’s statement. I would immediately transfer the ownership to my name.

‘It’s so easy to fool you, Sarah.
