Deux jours avant le Noël, mon petit ami Guillaume avait prévu d'emmener sa assistante passer les fêtes à la mer. Sans un mot, je lui avais préparé ses valises avec tout le soin. Lui, en retour, m'avait raillée en insinuant que j'étais enceinte et plus compréhensive. Lorsqu'il était parti, je m'étais rendue à la clinique et j'avais subi une interruption volontaire de grossesse. Car dans ma vie antérieure, quand j'avais voulu garder Guillaume à la maison, son assistante avait été brutalement assassinée sur la plage. Guillaume a eu l'air calme, mais avant mon accouchement, il m'avait horriblement trahie, il avait ouvert mon ventre et il a étranglé notre bébé avant même qu'il n'ait pris son premier souffle. Cette cruauté m'avait révélé qu'il nourrissait depuis toujours une haine tenace vers moi. Après la renaissance, j'avais juré de lui faire perdre absolument tout.

To cure our daughter's pancreatic cancer, I made a deal with the System, trading the rest of my life for a miracle drug. My husband called me insane to my face, but secretly gave the medicine to his mistress to treat her facial scar. When I was falling apart in despair, he had the audacity to explain: "Vicky has dreams of becoming a star. She's already 24, she can't wait any longer. "Besides, didn't you get that drug by sleeping around? How could a housewife like you possibly get such high-end medicine on your own? If you want to save our daughter, why don't you go whore yourself out again? It's not like it'll kill you, right?" But the truth is, I really don't have another life to trade for another dose.

La sœur adoptive de mon mari m’a invitée à dîner, et pendant le repas, un tremblement de terre a eu lieu. Mon mari, pompier, est arrivé immédiatement pour nous sauver. Cependant, comme nous étions toutes les deux coincées sous la même grosse pierre, il ne pouvait sauver qu’une seule personne. Afin de sauver en premier sa sœur adoptive, qui était fragile et malade, mon mari m’a abandonnée, malgré le fait que j’étais enceinte de cinq mois. Je l’ai supplié de me sauver. Il a laissé la grosse pierre briser mon bras. « Ysaline a toujours été fragile et malade, si on la laisse ici, elle mourra. » Mais après ma mort, il est devenu fou.

My father suffered from serious manic depression. When I was eight, my house was robbed and my mother was killed. I became blind while shielding my father from being stabbed. I became the only solace for my father after that. Anyone who hurt me would suffer my father's wrath. When my classmate made fun of me for being blind, her thermos suddenly exploded a few days later and she was blinded. When the class bully targeted me, he was found lying in an alley the next day. Something had dropped on him from a high building that broke his limbs. Not long after, my father achieved great success in his career. He was known for being a sharp businessman. I continued to be the most important person to him. Whoever dared touch a hair on me was as good as dead. I was lucky that a top medical research center overseas successfully came up with a treatment to restore my eyesight. On the day they removed my bandages, I received my father's wedding invitation. [Rina, I found you a new mother. We'll both dote on you when you come home.] My father told me how gentle and kind my new mother was and how much he looked forward to us meeting each other. I was touched and specially prepared a present for her. However, she instructed her bodyguards to abduct me and bring me to an abandoned factory. "Of all the things to learn in life, how dare a young girl like you learn to seduce another woman's husband? How shameless! How dare you steal something that belonged to my husband's late wife? I'll skin you alive!" My present was flung to the ground and destroyed. She ordered her bodyguards to force themselves on me and broke my bones. She skinned me alive and put plaster all over me to turn me into a statue. She then put me into an exquisite gift box to give to my father as a surprise. "Sweetheart, this is the vixen you've kept hidden from me. I turned her into an angel statue. You can see her every night if you put her in your bedroom. You won't need to sneak out to see her.

On the day of my birthday, my cousin, who does ballet, falls and injures her leg. My father smacks my leg with a club in a fit of rage. I cry out in pain, but he doesn't care. He sneers and says, "Now, you know how it feels! Why didn't you stop to think how much pain your cousin would be in when you pushed her and made her fall down the stairs?" He hits me with all his might until I can't make any more sounds. To drive the lesson home, he shoves me into the basement, uncaring that I'm on the brink of death. "I'll let you out of there once you stop thinking these dirty thoughts, Yvonne!" But when he opens the door to the basement once more, all he sees is my decomposing corpse.

My dormmate has dropped out of college to get married. Before that, she shares a livestream link on the college forum. She claims her husband has cheated on her, and she wants to stream how she punishes the homewrecker. She asks everyone to share the link and hype the situation up. I don't take her words to heart. To my surprise, she barges into my house with a group of people that afternoon. She trashes the place and screams bloody murder at me. It seems she thinks I'm the homewrecker. It's only from her words that I understand her rich and handsome husband is my father. Well, since she's caused such a scene, it looks like her darling is going to lose his job and leave this family without a penny to his name.

Suatu hari, aku menerima telepon dari seorang pengembang properti. Orang itu dengan sopan menasihatiku bahwa meskipun aku sudah menikah, aku tidak perlu sampai membuat keributan sepanjang malam. Banyak tetangga yang mengeluh dan merekalah yang dipusingkan karena berada di antara kedua belah pihak. Aku menjawab dengan tenang. "Kalian pasti salah paham, aku saja nggak punya pacar, mana mungkin aku sudah menikah?" Melihatku masih tidak mau mengaku, pihak pengembang properti mengirimkan video pengawas lingkungan perumahan kepadaku. Dalam video tersebut, lorong bangunan dihiasi dengan lampu dan tamu datang tanpa henti. Beberapa orang mengiringi pengantin perempuan masuk ke dalam rumah baru. Pengantin laki-lakinya adalah mantan pacarku, yang sudah putus denganku dua setengah tahun yang lalu.
