Rebirth Rules: Don't Help Seat Thieves
When my husband, Lucius Croft, and I were on a flight that was heading toward our honeymoon destination, his childhood friend, Belinda Todd, suddenly appeared before us while pregnant. She claimed that she had bought an economy-class ticket and that she wanted to go on a vacation with us.
Not only did Lucius not reject Belinda, but he also wanted me to give my first-class ticket away to her.
I turned his suggestion down. So, he helped Belinda occupy the first-class seat next to us.
When I realized that an old lady was the owner of that particular seat, I did everything I could to convince Lucius to return the seat to her.
Unexpectedly, Belinda was so mad that she got off the plane right away. On her way home, she got into an accident, which killed her and her unborn baby.
Lucius attended her funeral calmly. But on the day I was supposed to go into labor, he tied me up in the car and staged a car accident on purpose.
"This is all your fault! If it wasn't for you, Belinda never would've died! You deserve to make it up to her with your life!"
I could only watch the car drive into the tree in total despair. All I saw was a huge explosion and tongues of flame around me before I completely lost consciousness.
When I open my eyes again, I see Belinda standing before me with her belly jutting out.
This time, I no longer stop them.
What they don't know is that the inconspicuous-looking old lady is actually a member of the esteemed Howard family, also known as the global business powerhouse. She's also the grandmother of the richest man in the world, Ethan Howard.
