(Flora's POV)Fortunately, a staff member's voice came from behind the bathroom door, "Sir, is the band still playing according to the previous arrangement?"In the bathroom, Leo and I looked at each other and froze for a while.A moment later, he regained his senses and said to the people outside, "Wait a moment, we will come out."The people outside the door just left.We just quarreled so much that we didn't even know when he came.After being interrupted by the staff, we all calmed down."Flora, I don't want to quarrel with or hurt you. Don't force me anymore!" Leo said."Please don't talk like you are a victim. Is it really me who is forcing you? Not you who wants me to stay? Leo, it's you who are forcing yourself. In any case, I won't fall in love with you because you never care about my feelings!" I told him the truth.Leo looked at me as if he wanted to find the slightest bit of love in my eyes, but he failed. He found nothing except my cold determination at the moment. At las
(Leo's POV)"I don't like you and don't want to be with you. I'm staying by your side just because you arranged for a bodyguard to watch me and arranged my wedding as soon as I woke up even though I've never said that I'd like to!"I didn't expect Flora to say such a sad thing to me. She never spoke to me like this in the past, whether she was angry with me or wanted to divorce me. But now, she looked at me with disgust and anger in her eyes. There was no longer the slightest love in them.At this moment, her words stabbed me like a dagger, hurting my heart so much that I almost died. My sanity was almost burned out. Obviously, I could feel how differently she treated me now.Her embrace was warm and soft, and her skin still had my imprint. But why couldn't she like me? My heart hurt so much that I couldn't help hugging her tighter. I wanted to keep her, no matter what method or means.Just when I was about to do something I regretted, someone knocked on the door and brought my sanity
(Abbi's POV)After leaving George's phone number with Flora, I left Leo's house and walked down the road. When I thought that they would have a quarrel and separate because of George, I had the urge to sing with joy. After I got home, my parents also saw how happy I was, so they came over and asked with concern, "Abbi Miller, has Leo agreed to give us this month's money?""No." I didn't care about this issue anymore. As long as Leo and Flora broke up, I thought Leo would soon change his mind and be willing to marry me. From now on, his money was my money, and my parents and I could live a happy and worry-free life.But, while I was still dreaming, my mother said nervously, "Why? You must have said something wrong! You bumped his head and damaged his intelligence because of the accident. You've already apologized, but why didn't he forgive you? Did he not want to repay?" The witch thing was too difficult for ordinary people to accept, so Alva made up such a lie for me to explain my si
(Abbi's POV)"Sorry, I was too scared to see you. Shortly after your accident, I hit my head and was hospitalized for a while. And now, my mind is unclear. I... I'm sorry, Gray. I don't even know how to compensate you."I was too flustered. I looked at the man in front of me, and I didn't know what to do.Mable Bell was dead and took the blame for me. I could no longer deal with him as quickly as before. What could I do? In my current situation, I couldn't think of anything. I was desperate.It was good that Gray was awake now. He looked at me, came closer, and noticed the sweat and flustered expression on my face. The look in his eyes became quite complicated for a while."Did you hit your head?" he asked me.I nodded quickly. "Yes. I've received compensation for saving Leo. But... I upset him. He stopped giving me compensation, but I still have some money in my hand. If you want, I can pay you to make up for it." I explained it in detail.My brain went blank, and I couldn't even tel
(George's POV)It had been three years. That day was the third year that Flora had left this world. I still couldn't accept it.She had already made an appointment to see me in the office. However, she left my world forever. That was too cruel."How! How did she die?" I asked Leo angrily at Flora's funeral.Leo grieved too. He looked down, not answering my question, and occasionally coughed. He was still severely injured.It was an accident no one expected. When I thought back on that time, it felt like a nightmare.I spent a year in the dark until the following year. My former assistant got married and pregnant, and the new assistant took over. Linda. And she saved me from the darkness that I was in. she was a beacon of light that pulled me out of the abyss I was falling in.When I first saw her, I thought Flora was back, but she wasn't Flora. Still, she stayed by my side and did things Flora couldn't.A year later, we were in a relationship. I was healed. I was doing okay. And I was
(Flora's POV)When Abbi Miller left me the note with George's phone number, I thought she would return. After all, I knew she liked Leo from the jealousy in her eyes, and she wanted to destroy the relationship between Leo and me. Otherwise, she wouldn't do this much.As expected, Abbi Miller came within a few days. Her high-pitched voice sounded urgent outside the house. "Flora! I've come to see you, Flora!"I looked outside the window and found Nick stopping Abbi Miller from coming inside. It wouldn't be that simple for her to see me and get some information out of her. However, I decided to see her and said, "Let her in, Nick; I don't think she'll do anything to me, will she?"Nick hesitated and said, "But Leo said—""I will explain everything to Leo. Even if I am in prison, you have to let someone visit me, right?" I immediately interrupted Nick."I need to call Leo and ask for his permission first," replied Nick.I was sick of hearing Leo's name, and now that he was finally gone,
(Leo's POV)Flora treated me very well that night, looking at me with a smile all the time. Even though there was still no love in her eyes when she looked at me, the smile on her face was still so beautiful. I couldn't help but ask her, "Why?"Flora replied, "Maybe it's because we already agreed, so I hope I shall be free soon. Besides, let's be honest with each other. I don't want you to stop Abbi Miller from telling me about the past, so let's discuss it, shall we?"I frowned, hearing her answer. I knew there must be a reason for her being so lovely to me. "I'm sorry, Flora. I'd love to agree to your request, but I think starting over is the best thing for us. Many unpleasant things have happened in the past, and Abbi Miller wants to destroy our relationship. That's why she deliberately mentioned all those terrible things."I know I deprived her of the right to see the truth, but the fact would separate the two of us, and I couldn't let that happen.Fortunately, Flora didn't pry fu
(Flora's POV)My plan had failed. I originally wanted Abbi Miller to take my place and stay with Leo; when he found out how good she was, he might let me go. I didn't expect he would hold her for less than a minute before he discovered the woman he was holding was not me. How on earth did he find out? Perhaps, because he really loved me and knew me well, he knew my body like the back of his hand? Unfortunately, I didn't share the same love for him."Why? Why would you do such a thing?" He was baffled as to why I did it.Yet I knew I was not confused but wanted to push him away, "Aren't prisoners usually rebellious? I just want to try to behave and get myself a reduced sentence. Besides, Abbi Miller likes you so much, so I thought that she might try for a chance to be with you. But it looks like you found out after all.""I am your husband! Why are you pushing me into another woman's hands?" he asked in a tone full of surprise, and his voice was slightly raised.I had never seen him lo
Flora's POVOpening my eyes again, I looked at the unfamiliar surroundings with some despair.I thought I would be able to sleep forever and not need to wake up again.But I'm still dead.Leo didn't kill me.Then I'll have to do it myself.I got up, not expecting to see Abbi, who had been watching me from the sidelines, and realized that I was now in what appeared to be the cabin of an airplane.I don't want to pay any attention to this woman.But she reached out to me and talked to me."Flora, Leo has already told me that you're being irrational and even wanting to die, but I'd advise you that it's best to put that idea to rest.""You're not qualified." I said impatiently.At this time, a trace of confusion appeared on her face before she said, "You really are very different from the you of the past ... Never mind, I have already written the reason while you were unconscious, so you can see for yourself."When she finished, she handed me the book in her hand to read.The handwriting
Leo's POVI decided to give Flora her freedom back.By the time I saw Flora again, things were a little out of control."I'm not going to let you die so easily, I'm going to arrange the most brutal treatment for you, I'm going to make you get electrocuted and shot until you don't have a single piece of good flesh on your body, I'm also going to arrange for you to have an operation but I'm not going to give you a single milliliter of anesthesia, I'm going to make life worse for you and I'm going to make you pay for all of the suffering that I've been put through!"I stopped.Through the thin door of the hospital room, for a moment, I was surprised that I didn't have the strength to push it open again.My mother's voice came to my ears, "You could have tried, Leo wouldn't have let me suffer, he would have killed you when he found out the dirty thoughts inside you!""What do you think, do I even care? Besides he'll be gone soon, he'll go to the Mountain to find me a gift from God, maybe
Flora's POVThe cell phone's message alert chimed.I didn't dare to look at it, but looked at Leo and said somewhat sheepishly, "That ... is pretty good."Luckily, Leo didn't mind my perfunctory remarks and continued."After I leave, take care of yourself and your child; if you have any problems you can call my father, you should have met him. I will leave you all my accounts, of course, not all the money you can withdraw now, some are accounts under the name of the company, and at the end of the year there is usually a dividend on the stock, the dividend goes into a private account, company wise things, you can ask Alva, ask my father as well."He looked at me, his eyes full of tenderness.At this moment, I suddenly understood a little why he never hit on Abbi who was still loves him.Even if there wasn't the slightest bit of love in my heart, I had to admit that he was indeed an excellent man, and even at this juncture where he was about to be sent to his death, he still managed to
(Leo's POV)Abbi Miller told me the terrible things she'd seen and then said with pleading eyes, "Leo, please. Don't go. You can hate me, but I don't want anything to happen to you!"Although Alva said nothing, I knew he probably had the same thought as Abbi Miller. However, I had made my decision.I said, "Alva, take Abbi Miller back and make sure she can't escape again."Alva knew my temper, so he could only take Abbi Miller away first.Unexpectedly, when she reached the door, Abbi Miller grabbed the door frame and shouted, "I've been to the depths of Green Jade Mountain, and I know the way there! Leo, please don't drive me away! I can take you there!""Take her away," I said to Alva.Alva was a werewolf. So naturally, he couldn't allow a human to delay him. Alva shook his head and took Abbi Miller away in silence.Finally, the house was completely quiet. Nick and Betty, who went shopping, returned at that time.When they saw me earlier, they went to the supermarket so that Flora an
(Leo's POV)I was shocked by Mike's words. I never thought that all the twists and turns I went through with Flora were because we were originally cursed lovers!And to solve this problem, I feared I had to go to Green Jade Mountain...When I was thinking, Alva said anxiously, "Leo, don't trust him. He may have lied to you! God left no treasure on the Green Jade Mountain. No one has ever found it, right? That mountain's really dangerous!"Surprisingly, Flora said, "To be honest, I don't think it's worth risking your life. I'm fine as I am. After a year, we'll separate as agreed. I won't take the child with me. There's no need for you to go there. I no longer have feelings for you, so don't try to impress me. At most, you can only make me laugh.""Looks like we have a chicken here," Mike said and sneered.Alva clenched his fists and said, "I'd better take him first, Leo...""No, let him go.""What?""Let him go, Alva. He may have attacked me, but he doesn't pose any threat. On the cont
(Flora's POV)During my trip to the sanatorium, I appeared to have achieved nothing on the surface, but I had learned that Leo agreed to Caitlyn Christian being treated there. It raised suspicions that he would finally let her be treated because he was once very resistant to the medical methods used.When I got home, Leo was already back. Upon seeing me, he asked, "Flora, now you can always raise your baby in peace, right?""Maybe." I frowned. "But Caitlyn Christian's state is worse than I thought. She can't even say a word. This can't be your doing, can it?" I asked him."I've told you, she needs treatment and has been receiving it. She's in a bad state, Flora. The illness is already torturing her. Perhaps she had once done something wrong, but now she's being punished this way with her illness. Seeing her already miserable in this state, can't you give up already?""I don't know. I'm tired, don't talk to me." I said, no longer paying attention to Leo.Leo sighed, then he went to one
(Flora's POV)It was a bright and sunny day. Accompanied by Betty and Nick, we walked our way to the sanatorium. As I learned, Leo picked this very high-end and modern sanatorium equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and professional medical care for Caitlyn Christian. I thought she would have a pleasant and easy time here.Doctors and nurses, all clad in white uniforms, walked past me as I continued to walk. A brief thought came to my mind, and I couldn't help but think, 'What if Mable Bell was one of them?' A female killer lurking in the hospital, disguised as one of the hospital staff, could be interesting but scary too. I thought this and followed the nurses to Caitlyn Christian's ward.There was also a doctor there, and when he saw me, an expression of surprise crossed his face."Flora! It's you! How did you get here!" He looked very excited as if he was meeting an old friend.I was confused and hurriedly explained my memory loss, saying, "I'm sorry, but I'm not the old Flora
(Abbi's POV)I was living on the second floor. There was nothing outside my window that could be used to climb down. I gasped and wondered if my eyes were mistaken when a man suddenly appeared in my room. He was tall and slender, wearing a black trench coat, and his whole body was covered with an ominous aura.He was a werewolf.I realized this almost instantly. And what was more striking was that his features were oddly similar to Mable Bell's. I was scared out of my mind but tried to keep calm."Who are you?" I inquired softly, not even daring to raise my voice.I suddenly remembered the horrible scene where Mable Bell was about to kill me almost instantly."I'm Mike, Mable Bell's brother, and I've been on my sister's trail lately. You knew her, didn't you?" he asked with a sinister smirk.I gulped and hurriedly replied, "I don't know anything about that.""Really? You're not lying to me?" Mike asked, pressing closer to me.As I listened to his words, I couldn't help but think of Ma
(Flora's POV)"You've met George. Can you calm down now?" Leo asked me, his expression slightly annoyed."No, I need to see your mother," I said firmly.Since Mable Bell had been Ilana's chaperone and the two of us had argued about it, it was my understanding that Ilana was a key figure in trying to figure out my past life. Leo had been reluctant to bring up the subject of her mother, and I knew that whatever information he was trying to conceal from me was meaningful. So, I had to see Ilana.As expected, he refused my request by giving a somewhat plausible excuse. "She is sick, and I highly doubt that she'll answer your questions. Furthermore, it's better for her to rest than trying to bombard her with questions."My persistent little brain couldn't accept such an excuse, and I wanted to see her at all costs. So, I insisted, "I didn't say I was going to ask her anything either; I just wanted to see her. Isn't it strange that as your wife, I haven't even seen your mother once?"But Le
