Karma

At the height of my love for Seth Scott, he gave his heart to someone else. The winter chill seeped through the walls, and I lay beneath my blankets, trembling through the long, dark hours. He was out there, holding another woman close, warming her feet against his chest. He dismissed me as dramatic, refusing even a final glance. But what he didn’t realize was that I was dying. And he would never have the chance to see me again.

Ma sœur et moi nous étions mariées le même jour. Nos maris, l'un capitaine des pompiers, l'autre policier, étaient amis depuis l'enfance. Ils avaient même acheté des appartements sur le même palier pour rester voisins. Pourtant, quand l’incendie a frappé, nous les avons appelés à l’aide en vain. Finalement, j’ai accouché d’un bébé mort-né, et ma sœur a perdu le sien aussi. Alors, nous avons toutes les deux décidé de divorcer.

In my past life, my selfish son stopped caring about my husband and me after marrying a woman who followed her mother's words like they were holy commandments. In fact, he orchestrates an accident to kill my husband and me under the influence of his wife and her family. It's all so he can inherit our fortunes earlier than expected. When I'm reborn, I look at my son, who's rotten to the core, and decide that I don't want him anymore!

Setiap hari pertengkaran dan perdebatan. Itulah yang terjadi dalam rumah tanggaku. Sedikit saja masalah, seketika menjadi pertikaian yang hebat. Ya Allah aku lelah! Berdosakah jika aku memilih mundur? Tak ada bayangan masa depan yang cerah jika aku bertahan dengan lelaki yang selalu membuat goresan luka. Belum lagi, biaya sekolah anak. Aku tak mau anakku tak menempuh pendidikan yang tinggi. Anakku harus lebih dariku. Harus! Aku segera masuk ke dalam kamar. Meraih sepucuk surat dari Abah. Lelaki cinta pertamaku. Surat yang baru saja sampai tadi pagi. Dalam surat ini berisi, Abah memintaku segera pulang, karena warisan akan segera di bagi dengan kakak dan adikku. Aku tak mau, Mas Bima tahu hal ini. Karena jika ia tahu, bisa jadi akan dia kuasai dan aku hanya gigit jari. Bismillah ... aku harus segera pulang, hanya bersama Azkia, bagaimanapun caranya. Ya Allah ... aku lelah!

In my past life, I toiled away at the Lincoln family and treated my in-laws like they were a king and a queen. I also gave my stepson the best education possible and helped him get into a renowned college. Yet, I later ended up dead on the street. My stepson said, "You're not my mother. You'll never be her!" He breaks my legs, kicks me out of the house, and watches as I starve to death. It's only after my death that I find out he's the illegitimate son of my husband and his true love! When I open my eyes again, I'm back to the day my husband, Simon Lincoln, brings my stepson home.

After the birth of our daughter, my husband left for a dangerous mission. My in-laws' initial joy soured, and they regarded my baby with disdain. Maria, my mother-in-law, was particularly scornful. In a rare show of familial love, my father-in-law Lincoln took my daughter out for a playdate. I thought he had finally grown fond of her, only for him to strike me the moment he returned. "How dare you betray my son! I'll kill you!" "Yes! Beat that loose woman to death together with that brat!" Shifting my gaze from the report on the floor to my furious father-in-law, I pulled out several photos—my naked mother-in-law Maria, caught with another man. "Let's see who the real loose woman is!"

When my fiance's student argued with me, she knocked over a gas cylinder and caused an explosion. As the fire spread, my fiancé rushed into the lab wearing a gas mask. However, his priority was to carry his student to safety. As he left, he said, "Wait for the rescue team! A teacher should treat their students like how a parent treats their children. If something happens to Amanda, you don't deserve to be a teacher!" In the end, I inhaled too much toxic gas and died, never having waited long enough for the rescue team to arrive. Since I was the only one who had mastered the core data of the lab, no one could take my place. This meant that five years of hard work in the lab were destroyed, and Astran University was kicked out of a global research project. Later, William, the once esteemed professor of Astran University, became a pariah—someone whom everyone scorned and reviled.

The Richie Rich who violated my daughter has gotten off unscathed. He sneers and throws a wad of cash in my face. "I'll show you what people mean when they say money makes the world go round!" In that split second, I want to tear him to pieces.

The emergency center I worked in went haywire as the typhoon closed in on our town. That night, my husband’s first love made seven emergency calls in a row to me. However, she did not say anything when I picked up. By the eighth call, I thought it was a prank caller, so I gave them a piece of my mind. Then, I heard my husband’s angry voice. “Melinda! This is the eighth time Sadie's called you for help! Haven’t you made her suffer enough?!” After that fiasco, he decided to avenge Sadie by taping my mouth, tying my wrists and legs up, and throwing me into our basement for three whole days, despite it being flooded with seawater, I begged for mercy, but it was to no avail. “You knew Sadie couldn’t talk because she hurt her throat, yet you still hung up on her! I'm going to make sure you feel the same hopelessness she felt!" Those three days left me with a collection of severe infections. I ended up having to remove my kidney. Even after all that, that man still had the gall to kneel by my bed and beg me to give him another chance.
