I met Chris's gaze and made a more pitiful expression. "Yes, darling, I really don't want to get infected. How about I remove the IUD and you go for the surgery instead?"

Chris looked stunned, seemingly unable to believe his ears. "What did you say?"

"I said, you should go get a vasectomy!"

Now Chris couldn't keep up the pitiful act. He raised an eyebrow and looked at me. "Surgery carries risks. What if it fails and I lose my fertility?"

Seeing his panic, I felt that the nine years of childlessness seemed like a joke.

The female doctor coldly remarked. "Oh, so you weren't truly committed to being child-free."

Chris was speechless, a hint of panic crossing his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "What man wants to have this kind of surgery? People will just laugh at me as a castrated man."

I almost laughed in anger. "Laugh? Your parents called me a barren hen for nine years. Am I afraid of being laughed at?"

"If you don't want to be child-free, we can get a divorce and find someone who shares the same views."

Chris once said that his parents were difficult and, to avoid trouble, he hadn't told them about our decision to be child-free but rather claimed that I was infertile.

I didn't mind what explanation was used; I simply didn't want children, so I went along with his approach.

I didn't expect that his parents would not only spread rumors about my infertility but ultimately push me off a rooftop, using my lack of offspring as the excuse.

After my death, Chris inherited the fortune his parents had originally left to me, spent money to marry a little internet celebrity, and had a string of children.

Perhaps unwilling to accept it, my spirit lingered, watching them live in my parents' house, using the furniture and appliances I had carefully chosen, and regularly gathering to call me the biggest fool in the world.

Heaven saw my plight, and I was reborn.

When I mentioned divorce, Chris's face darkened. He lowered his eyes and said, "Honey, I'm actually doing this for your own good.

"I heard that a vasectomy can make a man less manly. Don't you want your husband to be in his prime?"

The scumbag of a man was still pretending to have deep feelings for me.

In this life, I won't have sex with him!
