Rebirth of the Hated Character

With every move of her hands and every batting of her lashes, Selene was able to captivate the world with her delicate beauty. She was the "Queen of Showbiz," the beloved of the Castillo family, unlike Keira, the ugly duckling of the family. It didn't matter the context or truth behind the issue, Keira was to be blamed by everyone. "Selene can do no wrong! How can such a delicate, fragile thing think ill of someone? It must be Keira who is making up lies!" "How dare you cause your sister to become sick! Receive your punishment!" Such words were a norm for Keira. The place she called home was Hell's Gate, and the people she called family were poisonous demons. Her life was filled with blame and abuse hurled by her sister's supporters. She was schemed against, attacked, and ruined to the point of no return. The last nine months of her life were the worst. Her insomnia had developed into Sporadic Fatal Insomnia, causing her to lose weight as she suffered consistent sleepless nights. At the age of 23, Keira Castillo passed away alone in her dingy apartment. Her final moments were filled with dread as she begged and prayed to whichever god was listening. "If only I had one more chance..." To her delight, she had regressed to when she was 18. 'The man you love? I'm taking him. The title 'Queen of Showbiz'? That's also mine. Everything you gained from stepping all over me, I will take. My dear Selene, I will play you in the palms of my hands and live my life the way I was supposed to.'

Bedtime Call

The sudden crying had startled everyone in the room. Keira was never a person who shed tears easily, having seen her like this yet again was difficult to stomach.

Her teeth bit at her quivering lips, trying their best to stop the sobbing that occasionally escaped them. She blinked successively, yet she failed to block the large tear drops that hung on her lashes.

"Just don't get in the way of my love again…" Keira's voice cracked and husked. She secretly eyed everyone's expressions, seeing they all had complicated looks. "For me…Austin is my motivation. I really can't lose him…"

"Why…?" Matthew found it hard to make sense of her words. The Castillos had everything, why does she need someone else as motivation?

"I don't think I'll be able to continue acting if someone took him from me…" Her watery gaze lifted to meet Selene's, mouth opening and closing, finally saying, "Please leave him alone, Selene…I beg you…"
