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…
Lisa was silent for a long time after my words. I thought she didn't want to respond, but to my surprise, I heard her sob.
I panicked instantly. It was the first time Lisa had cried in front of me. Even when she begged me to give Damon another chance, she hadn't wept like this.
"Eliana, we, the Colemans, owe you an apology, I've always felt I was responsible for you wasting the best five years of your life. And that child, who should have been born safely and grown up happily under our watch, was lost because of Damon's irresponsibility. That led to the child not having the chance to be part of our family. How can I accept that?" Lisa's tears started to flow as she spoke, she took a tissue and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.
I didn't know how to respond. I had already moved on, but Lisa was still immersed in the pain and regret of that time.
