I'm playing hide-and-seek with my son when he locks me on the balcony. It's freezing outside, and my face turns blue from the cold. However, all he does is laugh at me while I call for help. He makes ugly faces at me through the glass. "You look like the stray dog downstairs, Mom! You're so ugly!" I die a frosty and terrible death. Before breathing my last breath, I see my son excitedly give my husband a video call. "Mom has frozen to death, Dad. Can you take Ms. Cole home to be my new mom now?" When I open my eyes again, I'm taken back to the moment my son wants me to play hide-and-seek with him.

A Heart Frozen Over Chapter 13
However, when some sharp-eyed passerby noticed that Archie was the ungrateful son from the recent shocking exposé about a mistress, they quickly shook their heads and walked away.Some even advised me not to be soft-hearted."Don't be too soft on him, miss. This child can't possibly know what he's done wrong. He feels the pain now and just thinks you're the most obedient servant."The word "servant" made me shudder.I shoved Archie away. He fell into the snow but still tried to crawl toward me.I took a step back, holding my puppy, and coldly looked at him. "You're a man, Archie. You have to bear the consequences for your own choices."Sitting in the snow, Archie looked up at me with a bewildered expression, clearly not understanding what I said.But it didn't matter anymore.I turned and got into the car, placing the puppy in the front passenger seat.Meanwhile, Kenna was still inside the clinic, flirting with the handsome vet. Not wanting to deal with Archie anymore, I honke

I got 70% of the assets.Right after that came the incitement to murder case.The footage from the car's dash cam was very clear. The first person who suggested I should disappear from this world was Brandon.He said that he and Ellie would be able to avoid prison only if Archie did it. So, he was the mastermind behind the whole thing.Although Archie didn't cause me serious harm, the fact remained that Brandon had incited murder, and he received the punishment he deserved.Meanwhile, since Ellie was pregnant, she got a more lenient sentence from the court.In the end, Brandon was sent to prison. Before he went to prison, he handed Archie over to Ellie.Before leaving with Ellie, Archie didn't forget to mock me, "I finally got rid of you, Mommy! No one will boss me around anymore!"Ellie smugly raised her chin at me, as if she thought by winning over Brandon and Archie, she had won the whole world.But I didn't feel the slightest anger at their provocation.If Brandon and Arc

Looking back, I realized that I actually noticed Brandon's sudden interest in watching live streams in my previous life. I even asked him about it back then, but he brushed it off.Now that I thought about it, there were clues everywhere.…The situation quickly escalated.The kindergarten's live stream, which originally had only a few hundred viewers, suddenly saw tens of thousands flooding in due to the mistress exposé. The numbers kept increasing. The comments were bad enough, but the parents at the scene were already in an uproar. Everyone was shouting for the principal to come out and explain.Ellie was surrounded by the crowd, unable to escape. Some people even took advantage of the chaos and slapped her a few times.That was when I arrived with the reporters I arranged beforehand.Before I got out of Kenna's car, she carefully applied makeup on me to give me a sickly appearance and gave me a pair of sunglasses. Then, she helped me into the kindergarten.Seeing my arriv

After I said that, the people who had been secretly filming in the crowd immediately raised their phones without any restraint. Gradually, other employees started pulling out their phones as well.The flashes from the cameras turned Brandon's face pale, and the veins on his forehead bulged.He yelled at me, "Regina Foley! Enough!"Enough? This was far from enough.I had no intention of arguing with Brandon. I grabbed my bag and turned to leave. I hadn't come to the office to fight with him. I was just there to get the security footage.In the car, I called Kenna. "Is everything set at the kindergarten?""Yep. Just waiting for you to expose the mistress," Kenna replied.…Archie's kindergarten was hosting a parent-child event that day.Since Archie was sick, he didn't attend, but all the other parents were there. As a teacher, Ellie was there too.If I remembered correctly, Ellie was also going to perform on stage as the teacher representative. The kindergarten always livest

The footage from the surveillance cameras showed Ellie being even more promiscuous than she was in the hospital.After finishing what I needed to do, I left straight away.As I was heading downstairs, I bumped into Brandon, who rushed over looking flustered.Brandon, who always looked neat and meticulous, had his suit buttons undone and his tie crooked today. When he saw me, his brows furrowed in frustration."What the hell are you doing here, Regina? Don't you know Archie is sick? He's covered in red spots and is crying at home, looking for his mom!"He never disappointed me. Before I could shove the evidence in his face, he always played the victim. But deep down, he was already rotten to the core.I smiled at him. "I have shares in the company too. If your mistress can come, why can't I? Also, the mom that Archie's looking for isn't me, it's Ellie, your lover!" I said this loudly enough for everyone around to hear.It was working hours, and the entire floor was quiet. My voic

The voice message was also filled with Dad's angry voice. "It's all your fault! Now look! She's embarrassing us even after getting married! She's such a disgrace!"Listening to the suffocating voice messages, I was reminded of my parents' reaction after I died in my previous life.When they saw my lifeless body, they were clearly heartbroken, but all they said were words of apologies.They apologized that the daughter they raised died in such a shameful manner, ruining the Palmer family's reputation. They also apologized that I passed away before I could raise Archie.In the end, they didn't even take my ashes because of the way I died. They let the Palmers dispose of them however they wanted.Even though Mom fainted several times from crying, she never once said a word in my defense.Not even a simple, "My daughter isn't like that."Not a single word.I grabbed my phone and replied to Mom."I'm preparing to divorce Brandon. I don't want Archie either. You don't need to respon

Kenna's idea of having fun was going to a bar.When she pulled up in front of the bar, I hesitated for a moment, feeling self-conscious about my simple outfit.Kenna sighed. She pulled out some makeup from her bag and began giving me a makeover."Get a grip, Regina Foley! Just because you got married and had a kid doesn't mean you lose yourself. You used to be the belle of our department. When did you ever show hesitation in a place like this back in college? Do you remember the promises you made me before you got married?"Memories flooded back, clear as if it were yesterday.Back then, I pounded my chest and swore to Kenna, "Even if I get married, I, Regina Foley, will still be myself. I only belong to myself! If Brandon ever makes me unhappy or betrays me, I'll kick him to the curb! I won't be trapped by a man, and I won't lose myself in marriage!"My eyes started to well up with tears.Before the tears could fall, Kenna pointed her finger at my nose. "Don't you dare smudge t

This was indeed the first time I gave Archie mangoes. From my point of view, I had no idea he was allergic to it.Archie first realized he was allergic to mangoes when Ellie fed him some. Brandon was actually the one who bought the mangoes.I saw all of this today on the dash cam footage.Why did I even check the dash cam? It was all thanks to Archie. After I died in my past life, Archie unleashed all his emotions on my corpse.Apart from calling me a bad mommy, he went on about all the sweet moments he shared with Brandon and Ellie.He said his favorite thing was when Brandon picked him up because that meant he could hang out with Ellie.Brandon would take them out for lavish meals, to the amusement park, or for strolls down the food streets.The dash cam showed scenes of their happy little family in the car.Once, Ellie asked for a mango coyly, and Brandon immediately gave in. Before getting out of the car, he even planted a kiss on her forehead.Archie only had one bite of

Archie screamed at me, his voice hoarse with rage. But with an IV still in his hand, every violent movement yanked at the tube, causing his blood to backflow.Sure enough, within seconds, the IV line turned red.At that moment, Brandon stepped out of the bathroom. A damp stain marked his pants, and his expression carried a look of deep satisfaction.Before he could fully indulge in whatever happened in there, the chaos in the ward snapped him back to reality.Meanwhile, Ellie clutched her head, her eyes red as she looked at him. "Mr. Palmer—"I cut her off with a tearful plea, "Call the doctor, honey! Archie's blood is backing up!"Brandon hesitated, glancing between Ellie and Archie. In the end, between his lover and his son, he chose the latter.Ellie's expression darkened. With a sharp stomp of her heels, she turned and walked out.The moment Ellie left, Archie threw another tantrum, pounding his fists against me."This is all your fault! Bad mommy! You made Ms. Cole leave!

Chapter 1
"Mommy, will you play hide and seek with me for a little while?"When the sweet voice of my son, Archie Palmer, hit my ears, my body stiffened instantly.I looked down, and there was five-year-old Archie, lying on my lap and staring up at me with his big, round eyes.The warmth from his little body was strikingly real. This wasn't some deathbed hallucination.I was truly reborn.I returned to the day when Archie tricked me into going to the balcony for a game of hide and seek, then locked me outside to freeze to death.In my previous life, my relationship with Archie was anything but good.He liked his easygoing father, Brandon Palmer, but he couldn't stand me meddling in his business.So whenever I spoke to him, he'd lose it—smashing things, kicking, and hitting me.The worst time was when he picked up an ashtray from the table and threw it at my head with all his strength.I ended up with eight stitches at the hospital.After being discharged, I gave Archie a good beating,...
