Karma

My mother-in-law could not understand me. Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company. To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job. I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements. However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead. Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die. Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..." My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!" My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone. However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them. I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death. If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others. I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!

As the flames engulfed my body in the underground warehouse, I used the last of my strength to call my brother, the new Don of the Moretti family. Just as I was about to draw my last breath, Lorenzo finally answered, his voice as cold as the Sicilian winter wind. "Isabella, what the hell are you up to now?" "Brother, save me…" My voice was barely a whisper, but he cut me off without a hint of mercy. "Can't you go one day without causing trouble?" "Liliana's debutante dinner is next week. If you don't show up, I'll drag you back here myself." He hung up without a second thought, completely oblivious to the desperation in my voice. Despair mingled with the searing agony that wracked my body as the flames danced higher, and I couldn't hold on any longer. As I closed my eyes, tears still trickled from their corners. You won't have to drag me back, my brother. I'm never coming back.

It was almost New Year. I had just withdrawn money from the bank when I noticed that the amount on my passbook didn't match the cash in my hand. I counted carefully—my passbook showed a different figure than the five thousand dollars I was holding. Frustrated, I turned and went back to the counter to find the teller who had handled my transaction. Clutching the receipt, I tried to be polite. "Excuse me, I think there might be a mistake with this transaction." Instantly, she snapped, pointing her finger at my nose. "Don't you know that once you leave the counter, we are not responsible for any discrepancies?" I waved my hands, trying to explain. "No, wait, look again. I clearly withdrew five thousand dollars, but on my passbook, it shows…" She cut me off impatiently. "When you filled out the form, it was all right there. Once you leave the counter, it's not our problem. You signed the form yourself, confirming everything. Are we supposed to correct it every time someone claims a mistake after leaving the bank?" I froze. No wonder she kept repeating that the bank isn't responsible after leaving the counter. She thought I had come back to ask for more money. What I was really trying to explain was simple: I withdrew five thousand, yet my passbook showed that I deposited five thousand.

My best friend, Sienna Monroe, who always swears she'll never marry, goes with me to the fertility clinic and suddenly snatches away the donor profile I choose. That's when I know she has come back to life too. In my previous life, I wanted a mixed-race baby, so I chose the IVF route. Sienna mocked me, saying I'd just be raising someone else's child. But two weeks later, I was taken to the royal palace of Valoria. It turned out the donor I picked was none other than the Prince of Valoria, a man of eight national lineages. He not only insisted on marrying me as his princess but also promised that our child would inherit the throne. The baby and I were cherished by the entire royal family, so much so that the jewels they draped over me nearly bent my back. Meanwhile, Sienna flaunted her extreme feminist stance and offended business partners. In the end, she was fired and blacklisted across the industry. Sienna spent all her savings on a plane ticket to attend my party, where I would introduce my baby to everyone. But when I went to welcome her, she crushed my son to death in her hands and splashed concentrated acid on me. "You don't deserve such good fortune! You worthless witch!" But when I opened my eyes again, I had gone back to the day I asked her to go with me to the fertility clinic.

Je suis Isabelle, la fille du premier parrain de Sicile. Depuis mon enfance, j'étais toujours rebelle. Mon père, craignant que je me marie impulsivement avec un homme de moindre qualité, a pris une décision radicale. Il a ordonné que je sois fiancée au nouvel héritier de la famille Marino, Lucas. Bien que ce soit un mariage politique, je voulais au moins choisir une bague de fiançailles qui me satisfasse. C'était ainsi que je me suis rendue à l'enchère organisée par la mafia. Lorsque la bague précieuse a été présentée, j'ai levé ma plaquette d'enchères. Avant que le marteau du commissaire-priseur ne tombe, une voix hautaine venant de derrière a interrompu le moment. « Une gamine de la campagne ose me concurrencer ? Je mets deux millions d'euros ! Tu ferais bien de dégager. » Un silence s'est installé dans la salle, seulement interrompu par le bruit des appareils photo qui cliquetaient. Je me suis retournée pour voir une femme vêtue d'une robe dorée haute couture. Un sourire indifférent flottait sur ses lèvres, comme si toute la salle des enchères était son terrain de jeu privé. Avant même que je puisse répondre, le commissaire-priseur a précipité l'enchère. « Vendu ! Félicitations à Mlle Sofia, qui remporte la bague L'Étoile Éternelle ! » J'ai froncé les sourcils, une colère grandissant dans mon cœur. « On peut clore les enchères avant même qu'elles ne soient terminées ? C'est n'importe quoi ! » Sofia s'est tournée vers moi, ses yeux perçant comme des couteaux, me scrutant de la tête aux pieds. « Les règles ? » Elle a ri froidement. « Chérie, je suis Sofia, la sœur préférée de Lucas, l'héritier de la famille Marino. Ici, c'est moi qui fais les règles. » Je ne pouvais pas m'empêcher de rire. Quelle coïncidence ! Lucas, c'était le prénom de mon fiancé. J'ai sorti immédiatement mon téléphone et j'ai composé un numéro. « Lucas, ta sœur vient de me voler la bague de fiançailles que j'aime. Comment on règle ça ? »

Saat aku pergi ke rumah sakit untuk memeriksa apakah percobaan bayi tabung keempatku berhasil, aku melihat Erwin Sentosa yang katanya sedang dinas luar kota, dengan hati-hati menopang seorang gadis muda dan cantik keluar dari departemen kebidanan. Perut gadis itu membesar, tampak sudah hampir melahirkan. Erwin hanya terlihat panik sesaat, lalu segera melindungi gadis itu di belakang tubuhnya. “Jennie, Keluarga Sentosa butuh seorang anak untuk meneruskan garis keturunan. Setelah anak ini lahir, kita akan kembali seperti dulu.” Nada suaranya yang tegas terdengar jelas di telingaku. Aku tersenyum dan mengangguk menyetujuinya. Di tengah tatapan terkejutnya, aku diam-diam menyembunyikan hasil pemeriksaanku. Di hari gadis itu melahirkan, aku meninggalkan surat perceraian… dan pergi dari hidupnya untuk selamanya.

Leo, my mate, wanted to spend Valentine's Day with Cheryl, his first love, on the night Victor and Vera, his parents, were abducted. But this time, instead of stopping him, I contacted the Werewolf Enforcement Bureau to help. After all, when I tried to stop him in the last life, Cheryl ended up dying a horrific death, her heart gouged out by the Feral Rogues, a group of werewolf gangsters. "You killed her! Cheryl wouldn't have died if it weren't for you!" Without hesitation, Leo threw me into a cave where a pack of hungry wolves tore through my body, along with the child I was about to bring into the world. "You don't deserve to live after what you've done… I'm going to stand here and watch you endure all the pain she felt as she died!" Surprisingly, rather than staying dead, I woke up on the exact day when Victor and Vera were abducted once more…
