Chapter 31: Returned Wife (1)

The place was pitch black a familiar pitch black, Rachel frowned in Confusion. She was just about to be transported to another world and then she ended up here.

Her System Elfin must have returned to being useless again.

But at Least she knows where she is going again. It was a romance Novel or precisely five years before it begins.

Maddison Smith or better Yet Maddison Santios is Isandro Esteban Santios wife and mother of their Child. Their marriage was one of convenient marriage, so no love was ever included didn't take long before Maddison to became pregnant with their son.

Eventually, during her pregnancy she was diagnosed with cancer. Not willing to start her treatment during her pregnancy Maddison made the choice not to tell Isandro.

After birth Maddison left Isandro and her newborn son, changed her name and checked into a hospital in France.

Maddison eventually dies in a risky operation

Isandro doesn't know this until Five years later the start of the novel. When he falls in love with his son babysitter. Reluctantly he goes to try to track her down to acquire a divorce, only to find her fate and gravestone waiting at the end of the road.

However, she did get to see her son two months before her actual death. Allowed by Isandro who didn't knew she was sick.

"Hello~"

Rachel looked around to find where the voice was coming from within the darkness. And then she finally saw her Maddison Smith.

"is anyone here?" The women's soft voice called out.

"Over here" Rachel said drawing the women's attention. "Umm, I'm Rachel…Your Maddison Smith, right?"

"Yes, but how do you know?"

"Hehe, where do I start" Rachel said nervously.

-Later-

"I see" Maddison said sadly with a sigh.

"You believe me?"

"I do" Maddison said with a solemn expression "isn't that strange?" and then smiled sadly. "But, in this way we are both strange, to accept reality…..or is that unreality, I don't know." Maddison rubbed Rachels hair. "I suppose this is what it means when you can never control your own destiny."

Rachel just looked at the mature women who was so like her and yet so different.

"Collecting the fragments of our Soul that had been shattered. Its not bad once you think about it, its that saying 'One for all and all for One', That means you must continue on this journey for all of us."

"One for all and All for One?"

Before Maddison could say anything else, she held herself at the sudden intense pain in her pain. Rachel felt it to and then frowned and ended up copying Maddison action of intense pain.

"Ahh! I see so that's how it is. You certainly had it hard" Maddison said as she moaned in pain. "And Now I see that it is time for me to go, don't worry, and just remember that we are all the same person in the end."

And with a very happy smile Maddison disappeared. As the everything went White.

Isandro Esteban Santios stood at the window of the bedroom in the suite that he'd carried Maddison upstairs to just a short time before. He looked at the distinctive telecom tower in the near distance, the bumper-to-bumper traffic in the streets down below and saw none of it. His eyes were narrowed.

His mouth twisted into an even thinner line. His errant wife. The wife who had walked out on him and abandoned her own baby just hours after the birth because she hadn't been ready to deal with it. A drumbeat of rage barely contained, beat under the surface of his skin. In his blood.

Stunning him with its force. That day he'd left her to rest after the birth and returned some hours later—only to find her gone. He'd not laid eyes on her from that moment to this. He still reeled with the shock of seeing her.

He reeled with the torrent of emotions that seeing her had evoked within him—emotions he'd suppressed long ago, that day, when she'd revealed her true nature and had shown him how unbelievably duped, he had allowed himself to become. But not a hint of his inner emotions showed on his face even now.

A faint sound from the bed made him tense, and slowly he turned around.
