The Face She Now Wears

2026-03-04

At the third chime of the wind bell, he walked in. "Dr. Lynch, nice to see you. My name is Mendel Stern." My hand tightening around the pen. Eight years—I would recognize this face even if it were reduced to ashes. "Hello, Mr. Stern. What's wrong with you?" I pushed up my glasses, securing the mask of "Channing Lynch" more firmly. He smiled. "Chloe Harmon, why do you pretend not to know me?" I forced myself calm: "Mr. Stern, you have mistaken me for someone else. If your distress originates here, I can approach your treatment from the perspective of traumatic stress." Mendel Stern sighed and pushed over a book with a black cover, its gilded title glaring: No More You. I pushed the book aside. "Sorry, not obligated to read." He looked at me, pronouncing each word with deliberate weight: "Now, I am going to write another book, titled Bring You Back."收起

Chapter 1 of "The Face She Now Wears"

When the wind chime in the consulting room sounded for the third time, I looked up and saw him. The man stood tall and erect, his suit impeccably pressed without a single crease, yet the bloodshot veins in his eyes betrayed his exhaustion. "Dr. Lynch, I am Mendel Stern." The fingers he used to hand me the medical record book were sharply defined at the knuckles, trembling slightly at the tips. Mendel Stern. The name was like a rusty key, harshly inserted into the locked chamber of my memories, sealed for eight years, and a dull ache immediately spread. I suppressed the tightness in my throat, maintaining the calm composure befitting a psychologist: "Mr. Stern, please have a seat. Tell me about your concerns." As he sat down, his gaze never left my face, as if trying to find traces upon this face, honed by eight years of time. "You don't recognize me anymore?" His voice was hoarse with disbelief. I picked up my pen and looked down, feigning note-taking in the medical record book: "Mr. Stern, this should be our first meeting." "Impossible!" He abruptly leaned forward, his tone urgent. "You are Chloe Harmon! We grew up together at the alley entrance; have you forgotten?" Chloe Harmon. That was my true name, the past I had desperately tried to abandon for eight years. I lifted my eyes, filled with a measured hint of doubt: "Mr. Stern, you may have mistaken me for someone else. My name is Channing Lynch; I have been called this since birth." To make him give up completely, I took my wallet from the drawer and pulled out a family portrait. In the photo, I leaned against my husband Sebastian Harris's shoulder, our daughter Laura sitting between us, smiling with two small tiger teeth visible. "This is my husband Sebastian, and my daughter Laura. We live a very happy life." I handed him the photograph, my tone calm and steady. Mendel's gaze fell upon the photo; his pupils suddenly contracted, and his face instantly turned deathly pale. He stared at the photo for a long time, then looked up at me, his eyes filled with shock, confusion, and a faint trace of despair.

The Divorce That Shook the City

"Lorelei Murphy, call an ambulance yourself first." Casper Geller's voice came through, mixed with the roar of the race track, alongside Vivian Stephenson's brazen laughter on the other end. I gripped the sweat-drenched bedsheets: "I'm going into labor..." "It's just childbirth," he said impatiently, "Don't get in the way of my race with Vivian Stephenson." Vivian's voice suddenly drew closer: "Lorelei, know your place. Casper's heart has never belonged to anyone but me. You are just a mere decoration." I stared at the blood spreading across the sheets, tears mixed with sweat falling, "Casper, I'm carrying your child! Are you just going to watch me die?" "Don't make such a fuss." He sneered, "If something really happens, I'll just find...

When the Snow Turned Red

On the phone screen, William Powell's face was softly lit by the Christmas Tree lights. "Sir, could you tell us why you spend every Christmas Eve with this lady?" The news anchor asked with a smile. I squeezed the apple tightly in my hand. "Her husband was my friend; he passed away. It's not easy for her to raise their child alone, so I'm taking care of them for my friend." His voice came through the speaker, calm as if he were talking about someone else's business. "Just taking care of them? No other feelings involved?" The news anchor pressed on. I held my breath. The man on the screen was silent for three seconds — as long as three...

All for My Exclusive Love

I curl up on the luxurious yet cold bed, surrounded by a cage woven from the endless affection of four powerful men. Peter's gentleness, Sam's persistence, Simon's madness, Jimmy's dominance—they are like four invisible ropes, binding me tightly. "Blair, you just need to stay by our side. Nothing else matters." "I am not your doll. I have my own dreams!" I roar inside, but keep my face calm, secretly plotting a heart-stopping escape. At last, I stepped aboard the Deep Sea Explorer, thinking I could finally escape their control. Unexpectedly, the storm struck; the ship rocked violently, and I heard alarms piercing my eardrums. What I didn't expect was that, on the edge of death, they would all recklessly choose...

My Upstart Husband and the Maid

"Mom!" A childish shout stabbed into my heart like a dull knife. I froze in place, too scared to turn around. That was my son, Matthew Downey. Five years ago, my ex-husband Joseph Downey cheated on me with our nanny, Nancy Olsen. In the end, the three of them framed me for child abuse, and I spent five years in prison. Now, Joseph Downey shoved a black card into my hand and sneered, "Iris Nair, stop punishing yourself with these menial jobs." I sneered and tossed the card back, "We've been divorced for ages. I don't need your charity." Joseph Downey smiled and said, "Iris, I'm the richest man in this city now. This money is nothing to me." I...

The CEO's Vengeful Wife

Under the crystal chandelier at the engagement banquet, I smiled sweeter than anyone, but my fingers clenched the hem of my dress tight—who would've thought that a year from tonight, those two kneeling at my feet swearing their oaths would be the ones to kick me down into the freezing river. They thought I was dead, but I've come back—carrying the last cursed vow I made in that final second before drowning in my past life. "Now, the bride and groom will exchange rings—" No sooner had the MC's words faded than I raised my hand and splashed the whole glass of champagne right in Mark Lynn's face. "Exchange what?" The next second, the large screen lit up, playing video...

The Cheating Wife

Three days ago, two phone calls from the hospital shattered my life completely. My mother passed away, and my pregnant wife Quincy fell down the stairs. Our three-month-old baby was gone. On the first night of keeping vigil beside my mother's body, Quincy went back to her room, claiming she was feeling unwell. I got up to pour water in the early hours of the morning, only to find her room empty, along with the pair of beige high heels that had vanished from the hallway. "Where are you?" I dialed her number. "I'm at the hospital. It's nothing serious. No need to come over." Her voice trembled with panic, and she refused to tell me the exact address. In...

Killed By My Husband Thrice

In the first life, before I died, I heard my husband, Tristan Sewell , call: "Hailey." In the second life, I learned my lesson. I found Hailey Miller and sincerely held her hand: "Let's live together, no more fighting." The same weariness and understanding flickered in her eyes. We believed we had found a way forward.
