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…
"Yes." I suddenly found myself relenting. After all, if Damon dared to entrust his kid to me, he'd have to face the risks of my potentially inadequate supervision.
As long as I could keep Leo calm and occupied until Damon would come to pick him up, I'd consider my job done.
"Awesome! Can I play video games at your house?" Leo asked, excitement lighting up his face despite the fresh wound on it.
Ever since his mother, Catherine, had been spending more time with Silas and Lisa, she had been stricter with Leo, not allowing him as much gaming time as before.
So the prospect of playing games at my house was clearly a thrill for him.
I didn't answer him directly, but merely led him out of the hospital and drove him home.
Throughout the ride, Leo chattered away with Serena and Brandon. His English was getting more fluent by the day, and for some reason, my two little ones loved listening to him talk.
