In my previous life, I was merely a supporting character, highlighting Damon’s deep love for another woman. Tragically, my story unfolded with devastating consequences, leaving my family in ruins and my life shattered. Upon my rebirth, I chose to adopt a carefree attitude, ignoring the situation and waiting for Damon to ask for a divorce. But something peculiar happened. The man who used to disappear for weeks suddenly started showing up every few days. “Do you think there will come a time when you’ll want me to disappear?” I queried. “Do not indulge in fantasies.” he retorted, “We’ll continue to torment each other until the end.” I sighed, as a reincarnated soul, confident that his destined soulmate would soon cross his path. Finally, he encountered her, and I believed freedom was within my grasp. Yet, he quietly…
It was a pretense of reconciliation but, in reality, a display of triumph.
Wasn't the frosty distance between Damon and me the perfect tonic to her insecurities?
"Whatever kind of friendship it is, I'm not interested. I haven't had breakfast yet. I'm heading home." I didn't play along with Catherine's performance.
Once I found my car, I loaded up the groceries I'd bought and drove home.
If there was any chance of Damon and me being 'regular friends; why would I have moved to abroad?
When I got home, Serena and Brandon were already awake.
Norah was making them exercise. Seeing me, she took the groceries from me, "Ms. Brooks, I'll start breakfast."
Norah went to the kitchen, and I stayed with the kids.
During that time, my mom sent a video call. Other than checking in on the kids, she wanted to talk about Lucas' affairs. To my surprise, Lucas had drawn up a will. After the immediate family, my mom was next in line.
