A Love Reborn: Finding Romance Twice In One Lifetime
After being flogged to death for a crime she didn’t commit, Calista received a second chance when a system contracted her. It was simple: complete tasks and she could earn a second chance in life. After completing several of them, the chance to reincarnate in her original world and body was finally granted to her. However, unlike others, she didn’t want revenge against the people who killed her or wanted to unmask what truly transpired back then. All she wanted was to live peacefully and enjoy the bounty benefits which came with the reincarnation. And that was something she found when she met a man she fell in love with in some backward village. Unfortunately, all that was broken when her husband of five years perished at the hands of bandits. Things went downhill when Calista married her second husband, Orson, an amnesiac man whom she scammed into marrying her. But things weren't as simple as they seemed— Orson might be hiding some secrets of his own. Led on a path of revenge that Calista never thought she would be on, she soon realized that Orson might have more to do with her first life and death than he led on. If he knew she was still alive, he might kill her again. That meant that this time, Calista might have to strike first.
CHAPTER 261: CHOICE 2
"You tell me when he is here. I will check the goods. Once I find everything satisfactory, I will give you what I promised. As for what will happen after that, that won't be any of my business. If you lose the medicine, then you are gone. I have exhausted the medicine on your family," Calista said to him, completely unaware of what was going on in Orson's mind.
Because of the condition of the girls, she was forced to take out the last bottle. Because she couldn't dilute it, the medicine's level had reached a dangerous level. And now, with the medicine she promised to give Orson, it meant that the remaining medicine wouldn't be hers as well.
So, if an accident were to happen along the way, even if she was cut into a million pieces, the medicine would be no more. At least the kind that would treat their mysterious illness. The medicine for some lesser ailments, she has some, but not for giving to that family.
