After being flogged to death for a crime she didn’t commit, Calista received a second chance when a system contracted her. It was simple: complete tasks and she could earn a second chance in life. After completing several of them, the chance to reincarnate in her original world and body was finally granted to her. However, unlike others, she didn’t want revenge against the people who killed her or wanted to unmask what truly transpired back then. All she wanted was to live peacefully and enjoy the bounty benefits which came with the reincarnation. And that was something she found when she met a man she fell in love with in some backward village. Unfortunately, all that was broken when her husband of five years perished at the hands of bandits. Things went downhill when Calista married her second husband, Orson, an amnesiac man whom she scammed into marrying her. But things weren't as simple as they seemed— Orson might be hiding some secrets of his own. Led on a path of revenge that Calista never thought she would be on, she soon realized that Orson might have more to do with her first life and death than he led on. If he knew she was still alive, he might kill her again. That meant that this time, Calista might have to strike first.
"Oh, my goodness! Hubby, did I hurt you?" she asked her tone laced with worry as she examined him.
She didn't dare lash every part of his body but on the parts, she hit, the marks were there which was real evidence of what she had just done.
Some of the marks were a bit bloodied as well. But didn't he say that it was fine? Did she go overboard?
Calista was worried. She didn't want to fail to pleasure herself in the future just because she had hurt the man; she was supposed to do that too in the future.
Seeing her worried expression, Orson couldn't help but chuckle softly. For no apparent reason, he felt very warmhearted upon knowing that she could get worried for him like that.
Although her lashes seemed a bit painful and drew blood, that wasn't enough to make his iron body feel pain.
