Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 93. "Want To Take Her Back"
Dressed in a sharp red suit with his black hair styled up, Martin strolled into Gray's restaurant. He took a seat in the middle, instantly becoming the center of attention for all the ladies around.With his serious expression and striking looks, he resembled a charming devil in red.He raised his hand to catch the waiter's attention."Yes, Sir. Here's the menu," the waiter replied."No need for that. Just bring me the best dish from your head chef," he commanded.The waiter complied, and soon enough, the dish prepared by Gray Thompson was served. Martin gazed at the culinary creation.He picked up the fork and took a bite. All of a sudden, Martin spat the food and looked at the waiter. "It tastes disgusting. I demand to see the person who cooked this."Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Gray was taking his time.He took a deep breath and addressed his team in the kitchen."Listen up," he called out to the chefs.Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to face him."Today is my last
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 94. "Zoe in Prison"
Zoe arrived at the prison dressed in an orange jumpsuit, her hands cuffed as she scanned her grim surroundings.It definitely wasn't a pleasant experience; everything about the place made her skin crawl. The stench, the shadows, and the menacing stares from the other inmates were all too much."Inmate 666, here's your cell," the guard said, removing her handcuffs and shoving her into the cramped space.Zoe winced, rubbing her sore wrist as the door slammed shut behind her."Looks like we've got ourselves a new cellmate. IT'S A LITTLE BUNNY, GUYS!" A tall woman taunted, eyeing Zoe with amusement.Zoe glanced around at the three women she was now confined with. None of them seemed particularly friendly. One was a thief, another a scammer, and the last a murderer.Zoe decided to avoid confrontation and brushed off the comment. All she wanted was to relax and lie down on the bed.But as she passed by the trio, her hair was yanked back, and she was forced to stay in her place."Ouch!" Zoe w
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 95. "Victoria is Fake"
“Your daughter isn’t your daughter. She might look like Victoria, but a different soul resides in her. The person in her is my dead bodyguard, Vic. She’s been acting like your daughter ever since she woke up from a coma.”That was what Martin said to Victoria’s parents.Emmanuel and Sabby looked at each other. They thought that Martin was losing his mind after he found out in the trial that his dead bodyguard was innocent.Thus, Emmanuel called his son Mikhail. “He wanted your sister back. Then he suddenly came here telling all of that nonsense. He’s not in his right mind!”However, Mikhail knew Martin wasn’t losing his mind. In fact, Martin said the truth should be kept hidden until the real Victoria returns. “I will go back as soon as possible. Don’t believe in anything Martin said. He’s lying, okay, dad?” Mikhail uttered.When he ended the call, he drew a sharp breath. “How the hell did Martin find this out?”Then, he hurriedly went on his way back home.Meanwhile, Martin was cal

"Because I want you back. Now that you appeared in my life again, do you think I can just let you go away?"When Martin inquired about it, Vic remembered what Hunter had said. Martin went through a period of depression after she passed away. And he wasn't doing well after the trial. He was holding onto his strength until he discovered that she was actually still alive.Aside from that, Martin confessed his feelings for her.'That's why I didn't want him to know the truth,' Vic said to herself.Just then, Martin continued, "Besides, you have no place here. You aren't the real Victoria Red. How long are you going to fool Victoria's family?"Vic had a lump in her throat. Mikhail told her to keep it a secret from his parents. He didn't want them to know the truth even after the real Victoria came back.But at some point, Martin's words got to her.When she feels guilty about deceiving the Red family, Martin reaches out to comfort Vic."But you have a place in me," he reassured. "If the Re

Vic was tired of crying as she was in embraced of Sabby’s arms. But she felt most comfortable in this way.With saggy eyes, she looked at the woman who treated her as her own.“So, you are saying that you are only borrowing my daughter’s body. And that you will leave soon, is that so?” Sabby asked her while tapping her back.Vic nodded her head.Hearing that means that Sabby will reunite with Victoria in the future. However, she was also sad to let Vic go.“Can I ask you some questions?” Vic asked.“Whatever it is, dear.”“How could you accept me this easily? Aren’t you mad at me, mom?”Sabby gave her a faint smile and caressed her hair. “I was shocked, not mad.”If Sabby could add more, she wanted to tell her that she reminded her of her dead daughter. Rica was as polite and gentle as Vic. So, she really treated her as her own.‘If only I can keep both this child and Victoria,’ Sabby said to herself.“The time we spent together was special, Vic. I never once saw you as a stranger,” S

Emmanuel settled down next to his wife and immediately said, "I'm really sorry, love." He gently squeezed her hand, radiating warmth.Sabby responded with a forgiving smile, saying, "I get why you acted that way, sweetheart. It's okay."There was a brief pause before Emmanuel spoke again. "Can you really believe it? A different soul went to our daughter's body. It's not something out of the ordinary.""When Victoria went into that coma, the doctor told us it would take a miracle for her to wake up. Maybe there are more mysteries in this world than we realize."He looked at his wife, his grip on her hand growing firmer. "Sweetheart, do you feel attached to that child because of Rica?"Sabby avoided his gaze. "It's a lie if I said no. That child, ever since she woke up, she really behaved like our dead eldest daughter. I thought Victoria's memories caused her to act like her sister. But even after uncovering the truth, I still choose to believe she's my daughter paying me a visit."Emma

Yet, the figures remained unchanged: a perfect match of 99.99%.Overwhelmed, Mikhail felt as if his legs might give way beneath him. He held his breath, grappling with the shocking truth that was unfolding right in front of him.Initially, he had dismissed the similarities between Vic's childhood stories and the fragmented memories his parents had shared about his older sister.But now, everything had fallen into place.Vic is actually Rica, the eldest daughter of the Red family, who everyone believed had died in the ocean."My parents must know about this.

Sabby turned to Vic and said, "We figured out why we couldn't track you down; you ended up in another country."Vic glanced over at Emmanuel, who added, "You lost your memories, and the family that took you in gave you a new name. You spent your childhood in an orphanage, and eventually, you became Martin's bodyguard."In her parents' room, Vic saw them in tears as they recounted the events from years ago.'I can't believe this,' Vic thought to herself.All she wanted was to connect with the people she thought of as family.

And if I win again, that means, you need to make my wish come true.”“You sneaky kid,” Emmanuel chuckled before tickling her.“Dad! That tickles!”“Guys, be careful,” Sabby warned and soon, she saw the huge ship approaching the deck. “It’s here! Look!”Emmanuel and Rica stopped playing around and looked at the sailing large boat that blossomed right there on the ocean.“Wow!

Mikhail had stepped out to pick up his parents, leaving the two women to chat.As they sat there, Victoria noticed Vic's intense gaze on her. She shot back, “Stop staring at me like that. It’s kind of creepy.”Vic quickly looked away and replied, “Sorry. It’s just a bit strange having you right in front of me.”Victoria smirked, “Is it because I’m too gorgeous?”Vic chuckled, “I mean, I already knew you were good-looking, but you definitely have some confidence.”Victoria frowned, “I didn’t like that. It feels like a dig at me.”"No, I'm not trying to insult you. Actually, I just realized why it was so easy for Mikhail to uncover my secret. You were really a unique person, Victoria," Vic said."Enough with that. Just be honest with me. What’s your real connection to my brother? He’s not the type to cry easily, but you made him sob like a child. Did you two ever date?""That's a strange thing to say. I never though
