My husband, a surgeon, committed a fatal error during surgery. In despair at the loss of his patient's life, he chose the ultimate escape via sleeping pills on the very same night. By the time I reached his side, his ice-cold body was already being carted into the morgue. His death set the beginning of my tragedy. The patient's family, consumed by grief and rage, turned their wrath on me. Their cruel vengeance eventually took my life. As my spirit left me, I came to witness a shocking revelation. My supposedly dead husband was, in truth, alive and well! While I suffered, he enjoyed a life of luxury with his mistress and his new family. He had it all—sleek fancy cars, a stately mansion, and a mountain of wealth. The discovery burned me with rage. So furious I was, I couldn't rest in peace. When I opened my eyes again, I awoke not in the afterlife, but on the day my husband faked his death. I had returned…

However, I no longer needed their kindness.As I stared at the destitute Lucy and Nancy, memories of their cruel treatment of me in my past life flooded my mind.Looking at their abysmal state right now, my heart swelled with delight. A wide smile stretched across my face. "It’s not that I don’t want to help you. You see, I've already booked a flight abroad. I’ve sold the house, so you’ll have to rely on yourselves from now on. I'm sure you two can work. You won’t starve to death."Refusing to spend a second longer talking to them, I ordered for them to be kicked out of the neighborhood.The very next day, I boarded the plane abroad. Using Christopher's inheritance as capital, I started a business overseas. In just a few years, it grew several times over and bloomed into a successful venture. When I returned to the country and attended a friend’s gathering, I came across Emily. From what my friend had told me, Emily had become famous again online after I left.Someone had

I wiped away my tears, and continued watching.In the footage, Lucy skipped happily out of the office. Emily and Christoper were left alone in an intimate position, with her on his lap."Emily, once I'm free from that old hag, I'll take you and our child abroad. I'll give you the grand wedding you deserve. You'll be my beautiful bride!" he vowed.Emily replied to him with an affectionate kiss on the lips. Very quickly, the two fell into a passionate embrace. As Christoper lifted her onto the office desk, her face flushed red with embarrassment."We can't do it yet… I just got pregnant."Christoper shamelessly wrapped his arms around her waist and caressed her back, his lust as clear as day. "It's fine. We'll just have to be careful. We won't hurt our baby…"In a matter of minutes, their indecent moans could be heard from the footage. The police quickly came to their senses and switched off the monitor.Upon seeing this, I staggered. A female officer supported me and helped me

Upon hearing that I was going to check the surveillance footage, Emily's face turned pale. Just as I was about to leave, she hurriedly grabbed my arm."Y-Yuna... Christopher's already dead. Why don't you just let it slide?" she suggested. It seemed she still hadn't figured out the situation.However, I merely shrugged her off."Why are you so pathetic? My brother died because of her!" Nancy yelled angrily. She turned to the police. "I'm counting on you to get justice for my brother, officer! I want this evil woman to rot in prison!"The police then took me to the surveillance room. Outside, a crowd of curious onlookers had formed. Some reporters hadn't left, too. I suggested starting with last night's footage. I told them that Christoper hadn't come home last night as he had been working late at the hospital.The police followed my instructions and retrieved the footage from his office. It was around nine o'clock, and most of the hospital staff had left. At that time, Christop

When Lucy and Nancy saw the figure in the cremator, they screamed in horror."Switch it off!" Lucy demanded, panicked. "Switch it off! My son isn't dead!"At the critical moment, she finally abandoned the ruse of Christoper's fake death. Alas, she was a step too late.Once Christoper was reduced to ashes, she collapsed weakly to the ground. Her face, lined with wrinkles, seemed to have aged significantly in an instant.She crawled forward, drowning in tears, but the staff stopped her. "Don't go near it, ma'am. It's still hot!"Lucy pushed them away, sobbing uncontrollably. "That's my son! Didn't you see him sit up? This is murder!"I held back my laughter, maintaining an expression of concern as if trying to console a grieving elder. "Mom, Christoper is already gone. Please stay strong."Lucy, trembling with rage, lunged at me like a wild animal. "You vile woman! You killed my son! Give him back to me!"She almost knocked me over, but I steadied myself and said earnestly, "Yo

As expected, the manager cooperated instantly. He quickly arranged for Christopher to be carried inside.Once the cremator reached the required temperature, I requested the control switch from the manager. I couldn't wait to personally see Christopher off!Just then, an urgent voice rang loudly from the crematorium's entrance."Stop! Wait a moment!"Lucy, who had just woken up from the anesthesia, rushed in. She had hurried all the way, stumbling several times in the process. With her daughter Nancy's help, she finally made it here. Nancy pointed an angry finger at me and burst into a string of curses. "You wretched woman! I always knew you had ill intentions! Are you trying to take my brother to the grave with you?"I kept an innocent expression, as if I didn't understand a word of her."What on earth do you mean, Nancy? Your brother's already gone. I just want to let him rest in peace sooner. Am I wrong to do that?" I asked, feigning doubt. Nancy realized she had let someth

Children were often the most straightforward with their words.Emily held her child’s hand, making no attempt to stop the boy. Rather, she shot me a triumphant grin. I studied her face—smooth, with no wrinkles whatsoever. She hadn't aged a day. The sight drove me into mad jealousy. Desperation filled my eyes as I tried to understand."Why?" I demanded, anguished. "Why did you lie to me?" In truth, I knew the answer. However, I refused to believe it until I heard it from Christopher's lips.Christopher pulled away, narrowing his eyes. A sarcastic smirk spread across his face."You're an idiot for trusting my lies. How could I escape that insane family if I didn't pretend to be dead? I should thank you for taking the brunt of their anger. It's too bad you didn't die."At that moment, everything became clear to me.When the surgery had gone wrong, Christopher knew he would end up in jail even if he survived the family's wrath. Hence, he and Emily faked his death. After all, wh

I approached Christopher’s supposedly lifeless body and lifted the white sheet covering him, forcing out a couple of tears for good measure."Christopher, I’m sure your spirit would agree with this. Isn't that right?" I asked aloud. "All we need is a fingerprint here, and this contract will take effect. The patient’s family will forgive you."Having said that, I grabbed his hand firmly. His hands stiffened, as though he had heard me, and he seemed to resist signing the contract. However, I forced his hand down without batting an eye until the contract was successfully signed.I glanced at the terms on the document, suppressing the urge to smile, and handed it to the lawyer.Emily, unable to stop me, put on a forced smile."Yuna, let’s finalize the death certificate quickly so Christopher can rest in peace," she urged.I stared at the death certificate, but made no move to sign it. I smirked inwardly. Even now, they were still trying to fake Christopher’s death so he could es

At this very moment, Lucy hurried over, her arms laden with several shopping bags filled to the brim with designer clothes and handbags. She must have rushed here straight from the mall, so much in a hurry that she hadn't even had time to put them down.When she caught sight of the inheritance donation document in my hand, her expression grew dark. She marched straight toward me, and swung one of her bags at my head."You spendthrift wench! You can't even bear a son, and now you're trying to take my son's money? Over my dead body!" she screeched. Seething with rage, she grabbed the donation document and ripped it into shreds. The lawyer didn't dare intervene, while the people around us stepped back. Neither was willing to get involved with one they now saw as a mad woman.Emily, reassured by Lucy's arrival, finally sighed in relief. She then turned to me, feigning concern."Yuna, you should listen to your mother-in-law. This money can't be donated!" she chided righteously. To

I grabbed Christopher's arm discreetly, gripping tightly into his flesh. Anyone who looked closely would notice his fingers twitching slightly from the intense pain. However, it seemed he had anticipated this and used an anesthetic to avoid giving himself away.Fine—if he couldn't move, that worked to my advantage.I wailed at the top of my lungs, drawing the attention of everyone nearby. "What?!" I shrieked. "My husband just passed away, and you expect me to smile? This hospital is inhumane! Christopher was one of your doctors, but I don't see even a trace of grief on your face! Did you want him to die?"Before long, a crowd began to gather around me. Some people began to take my side."Leave her alone.""Her husband just died! Why should she be denied the right to cry?""What kind of cold-hearted doctor are you? Have you never lost someone close to you? We don't mind at all, so why should you?"Just then, someone stepped forward from the crowd."Isn’t this the doctor from

Chapter 1
My husband Christopher Lumiere succumbed to a deliberate overdose of sleeping pills.He was promptly rushed to the hospital, but was declared dead upon arrival—a lifeless husk. Emily Landon, his junior and the doctor tasked with saving him, failed to revive him despite her efforts. She solemnly passed me his official death certificate, heavy with sorrow. "He's gone, Yuna," she told me, anguished. "Please accept my condolences. I just need your sign here so we can send his body to the morgue."I jolted awake, breaking free from my daze. My eyes fell on Emily. I touched my legs, tracing their shape. To my great surprise, they were perfectly fine. Realization struck me like lightning—I had been reborn, given the chance for a second life. Before, in my previous life, Christopher had chosen to end his life via sleeping pills. I had rushed to the hospital the moment I caught wind of it, but I had been a step too late. Despite strenuous rescue efforts, it was futile—he was declared ...
