(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 POV)"Flora, Flora! Wake up!" I heard Betty's gentle voice waking me up. I was relieved that it was her and not someone else waking me up, considering that I was stark naked. I had fallen asleep with my mouth submerged below the surface of the water, although I could still breathe through my nostrils. It seemed that Betty was looking for me and could not find me anywhere and thought to check the bathroom. I sat up straight and realized that the water had become cold. Betty hurriedly helped me get out of the tub, grabbed a clean towel, patted me dry, and got soaked in the process."I'll go change my clothes," she said.I thought it was useless for her to run to the servant's quarter and change, so I suggested that she get out of the wet clothes right here itself. "No need. You can take off your clothes and let them dry on the balcony. I'm sure it won't take long as it's hot right now. You can wear my camisole, what do you think?"Leo did buy me a lot of sexy pajamas, which w
(Leo's POV)As soon as I got off the plane, Alva messaged me.Alva: [Sorry, Leo. I may not be up for guarding Flora. I think I need to arrange a female nanny for her.]The moment I got the message, I was left stunned. Was I being blindsided now? How could someone I truly trust betray me? He was my best assistant, staying with me for more than ten years. A man who always said yes despite how difficult the task was. Yet, he told me that he was incompetent for this job. It was very out of his character to say this. Something was fishy. It left me so puzzled that I immediately called him back. As I rode my car, I asked him, "What happened? Why did you refuse me out?"His voice sounded a bit vague on the other end as he spoke, "Leo, Flora has lost her memory. She's no longer the Flora who loved you with all her heart. She can do anything. You should've known about this, aren't you?"The moment he told me that, I couldn't help but ask even more, "What happened? Just tell me." I could hear
(Leo's POV)As I watched Flora, who shopped happily, my mind grew suspicious. Could I trust her? But I eventually decided to listen to her and rest my legs. After I sat down, I decided to look at her back as she went to more stores. Seeing this, I couldn't help but think of how she used to be when she fell into a comma. No matter how often I called her, she didn't respond.Although she always tried to leave me, I was glad she was alive and well to be with me. Every time she moved, I was grateful for it for being able to see it. At the same time, I also understood that she wouldn't understand what I did for her. My loss became as twice as bigger as it was before. Her lack of understanding added more pain for me after I saw that she didn't love me anymore. However, I wouldn't give up on her. The truth was that I would definitely work hard for her. As I watched her shopping to her heart's content, I thought to myself. Suddenly, I was jolted when I heard her through my ultra-sensitive se
(Flora's POV)After a quarrel, my heart was still angry. To tell the truth, I didn't know why. When I saw Leo, it was difficult to keep calm, and I was always prone to mood swings. Obviously, I have always been kind in front of others, but I couldn't do it to him.I gradually calmed down when walking alone in the open mall. I knew that it was never a wise choice to quarrel with Leo. Sometimes when I thought about it, I thought it was strange. To be clear, Leo has taken care of me for three years. I should be grateful to him. No matter what, we would not have fallen into such a situation.I patted my head and felt very upset. After a while, I found the bathroom in the mall and walked in. But as soon as I entered the bathroom, I was stunned. A man was standing in the bathroom!The man was standing against the window with his short blond hair and black windbreaker, looking neat and handsome. When he saw me coming in, he smiled, put his forefinger between his lips, and waved to me again.
(Leo's POV)After Flora left, I felt very sad. That was not what I wanted. I always remembered how well we got along three days before our divorce. I thought that after she woke up, we could relive the beauty of the past, but I didn't expect that she would be like that then.I realized that she didn't love me anymore. Every time I thought of the fact, I felt a needle piercing my heart. But... suddenly, I felt something was wrong. Why couldn't I feel her anymore?I was very worried and hurried to the bathroom to find her. At that time, I saw a man squatting beside her."Let her go!" I rushed over quickly, and when I was about to catch the man, he dodged. He was also a werewolf!The man looked at me and said with a smile, "She suddenly fainted. I just looked at her. I think it is more important that you send her to the hospital to see what is going on than to catch me." Then the man left.If he were of the same kind, I would fight with him. Although I wouldn't lose, Flora's treatment wo
(Flora's POV)The ward was peaceful and lonely as I idly lay alone in the hospital bed, listening to the footsteps of the doctors and nurses walking past. I felt a sense of pure bliss, of pure peacefulness and a taste of freedom. One that would have been impossible if Leo was around. Now that I was alone, I could communicate with others easily besides Leo. I closed my eyes, cherishing the moment like there was no tomorrow. During these days, things had been rough for me and I found it difficult just to get a moment of peacefulness for myself. Just then, my moment of peace was interrupted by a sudden, loud knocking on the door. Knock, knock, knock!My eyes lazily opened as I lifted my head up a little to stare at the door. I assumed it might have been the two prison guards, so I bristled at them, "Betty, Nick, you can take a rest while I nap." But then, the person at the door spoke, and it didn't take long for me to identify whose voice it was. "Flora, it's Mike. Are you okay?" came
(Flora's POV)Cody looked at me in disbelief as he asked, "How is that possible?" The man was just like me before. He kept trying to hear my flat stomach again. However, I could feel a moving sensation in my body. The thought of it scared me. Then, I told him, "I'm sorry, but it's true. In fact, I knew as soon as I woke up that Leo had taken care of me for three years. Even if he did it, I didn't even feel happy. Although he was kind and poured all of his attention on me, I felt numb. However, I couldn't help but wonder. Why can't I be happy?"Since I felt something was wrong with me, I decided to talk to Mike, who was also a werewolf. However, he looked at me sadly as I continued, "Then, a friend saw me. I suddenly realized that I wasn't the same Flora as before. I lost my heart. I heard from my friend that I was different. Is this the case?"After he had listened to me, the man sighed as he said, "Flora, we don't know about it."Seeing that he started to give up on me, I used the
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
