Chapter 1

The shrill ring of the phone yanked me back to reality.I stared at the screen, feeling a cold dread creeping over me as I realized the call was from the property management. My mind raced—this was the call informing me that my daughter had fallen from the building.I grabbed the phone and rushed downstairs, my heart pounding in my chest. When I saw her lying in a pool of blood, I froze. In her tiny hand, she still clutched her favorite bunny doll.It was all exactly like the last time.In my previous life, I had been washing her clothes in the bathroom while she played in her room. Then came the phone call—the one that told me she had fallen and died.I rushed out of the bathroom, my heart in my throat, and found her room empty. The window was wide open.I ran downstairs frantically, not even realizing I had lost one of my slippers. When I saw her body, my world crumbled. I burst into tears and screamed like a mad woman.I didn't understand. I was so sure I had closed the windo

"How could a child have opened the window?" The officer asked me, his voice sharp."That's what I'm wondering. I believe there was someone else in the house that day," I replied. "I need a full investigation into this, for my daughter's sake."The officer's expression hardened, and he nodded gravely. "According to protocol, before we can continue our investigation, we have to hold you for 48 hours."My nails dug into the palms of my hands. I forced myself to stay calm and think this through.By this time in my previous life, my personal information had already been plastered across the internet.The entire online world buzzed with heated discussions about the case.As expected, the overwhelming majority were condemning me, their words sharp and merciless.Meanwhile, my so-called best friend stood before the media with tears streaming down her face, putting on a show for the cameras."I'm Jasmine's best friend, and I've known her for over a decade," she sobbed, her voice quiveri

"You never liked Phoebe," Yvonne wailed, her voice trembling with feigned outrage. "You would yell at her and punish her. If you didn't want her, you could've just let me raise her! You're so cold-blooded!"As Yvonne sobbed uncontrollably, she didn't miss the chance to stir up the emotions of the onlookers around us. Cody pointed his finger at me, his eyes bloodshot and fixed on me with a glare full of anger and hatred."Jasmine, haven't I always been good to you? Since we got married, I've done everything for you. I've loved you, tolerated you, and cared for you. If I ever did anything to upset you, you could have yelled at me or hit me. I would have changed! You didn't have to kill our daughter to punish me!"Not even an animal would do that! You're so vicious!"The reporters and onlookers around us were all filming the scene, their cameras focused on every moment. If looks could kill, I would have been dead a hundred times over.I shot back, "So you think killing our daughter i

I stared at the cameras around me, my voice breaking as I spoke. "My husband, Cody, and Yvonne have been having an affair. They conspired to kill my daughter and frame me for it."Yvonne's face twisted in discomfort, but she quickly blinked her big eyes, trying to maintain an innocent expression. Her voice cracked as she began to cry."How could you accuse me of such a thing?" she gasped. "Jasmine, what did I ever do to you to deserve this? You're trying to clear your name, but there's no need to drag Cody and me into this lie."Cody jumped in, quickly backing her up. "You're still not taking responsibility for what you've done. You're just trying to weasel your way out of it. Yvonne and I have nothing to hide. We're clean. How could you say something so awful about us?"Yvonne is still defending you now, and this is how you repay her? Everything you do hurts me."They played off each other, stirring the crowd into gasps of disbelief. They were accusing me, calling me unrepentant,

The reporter held the microphone up to Cody and asked, "Mr. Yates, with this evidence, do you have anything to say for yourself?"Cody panicked, completely blindsided by the fact that his crime had been recorded."N-no! That video was edited! It's fake! She's trying to frame me. She's trying to get away with it! Don't let her deceive you!"Cody continued to deny his guilt, even reaching for my phone in an attempt to grab it."You can drop the act," I snapped. "I've already handed the video to the police. They'll confirm if it's real or not.""You'll be punished, and so will the other one," I said, turning my fiery gaze toward Yvonne."You're the ones who killed my daughter!"I spoke each word with a force that echoed in the air.The crowd immediately shifted their attention to Yvonne, the seemingly innocent woman who had just moments ago been accusing me of cruelty. They couldn't believe it—the person who had been lecturing me about being heartless was the real murderer."Jasm

The number of viewers in the livestream hit an all-time high, and insults flooded the chat.[How can such evil people exist? They were planning to murder a defenseless three-year-old child all along!][They're ruthless. Not only did they kill a three-year-old, but they also framed a mother who truly loved her child.][I can't believe I was fooled by their acting. I used to insult this mother. Madam, I'm so sorry! I never imagined the devious plot behind all of this.][Oh my God, these two deserve to rot in hell. A father was manipulated by his mistress and killed his own daughter!]I watched them closely when they realized the plot had been exposed—their faces turned as white as a sheet.

It drew in countless viewers, and media outlets crowded around to cover the scene.Now, with the truth out in the open, peo
