An outcast of time

Hearing that young girl utter those words, Aurora's whole body stiffened and stiffened like a statue. The top of her head was cold, and from the top of her head, her hands and feet were as cold as ice.

Especially when, when she heard her father - William Dylson reply:

– Yes, hurry up and wash your hands and then go eat.

What's happening?

Why is that?

So what about her? Since when did her father have another daughter?

Aurora struggled to stay calm, she glanced around, then stopped at the calendar on the table. June fifteenth year two thousand zero twenty-one… Still today.

So what is going on in the end? It is better than a few years later, it is understandable that her parents have adopted another daughter.

Aurora was confused, she was extremely bewildered, a crisis suddenly welled up in her heart, burning like lava. It felt like her life was stolen.

Something got out of hand, out of control.

Despite Aurora's bewilderment, in front of her was a happy family scene. Pearl looked at her father happily, her face exuding a mysterious expression. And then, she took out a test from her bag. The handwriting on the cursive test was beautiful and inside the score box is a bright red one hundred points.

– Dad, look, I just handed out the test today, I got one hundred points! I was the only one who got a perfect score on this test in the whole class!

William put down the newspaper he was holding, he took the test Pearl gave him, a proud smile on his face.

– Very good, normally only ninety points, but this time it got one hundred points. You must be rewarded.

Aurora looked at the scene in front of her in shock, she also went to the front, looking at the straight test, her heart was even more confused. Suddenly, a woman's voice came, as gentle as water, clear and easy to hear:

– So what does Pearl want mom to buy? A new dress?

Ngoc Linh put the test in her briefcase and puffed up.

- That's for later, okay? Now I'm hungry, I want to eat!

After that, three figures continuously entered the dining room, leaving only Aurora standing frozen like heaven.

Who is that woman? Could it be that her father had an affair and betrayed her mother? And that girl is his bastard?!

But how could he bring his mistress and stepchild home?

Then suddenly, Aurora's eyes met a wedding photo frame. The man in the photo is elegant, and handsome, wearing a silver frame, and looking very scholarly. The woman is graceful and graceful, her eyes are as gentle as a condensed May, the sweet and happy smile of a young woman in her twenties.

The man in this photo is still her father, but that woman is not her mother. It was... the woman from earlier.

Above the photo is also the words the wedding of William Dylson and Kate Langley.

They even had a wedding ceremony…

So what about her mother? If they were a family, then what were her and her mother?

From the direction of the dining room came laughter and laughter, but now, Aurora didn't dare to go down to take a look.

She suddenly felt a terrible pain in her ankle, so she knelt on the ground. It was the first time she felt this much difficulty. The mascara was smeared, and bare feet scratched, like a dog in mourning. The happy family on the other side made her feel like an extra person, someone with no way back. That girl smiles brighter and happier, the more Aurora feels she has no place to stay. Happy smiles on their lips, so bright that it is impossible to look straight.

Everything is like the past has changed. The other woman took her mother's life, and the other girl took hers.

Her father, it seemed, was no longer her father.

Aurora feels like falling into a fog, everything becomes blurry, and there is no way out. Suddenly, a loud voice rang in her ear, pulling her out of her own world:

- Hello, an outcast of time.

Aurora widened her eyes in surprise, she turned her head to look at the voice. There was a clock floating in the white mist. The other watch even makes a body with dew, just like a human.

Aurora screamed in fear, but no matter how loud she screamed, no one could hear her anymore.

The watch laughed, its voice hoarse like a rusted engine:

– Are you screaming? What's the point of screaming when no one can hear you anymore.

After recovering from the feeling of being out of her mind, Aurora gradually calmed down, she rolled her eyes at the clock, trying to appear ferocious.

- What do you mean? You know right?! Do you know why I became invisible?

The clock nodded slightly or rather brought itself down. Then the watch replied with a smile of satisfaction:

- Of course, I know, I can only tell you one thing. Just as she had thought, the past had been changed. That's why you were not born, so you became invisible, an outcast of time.

Aurora felt very bewildered. But she realized that perhaps this person in front of her eyes could help her. She tried to calm down and asked him, trying to be polite:

- What about my mother? Did she also become invisible? Where is she now? Please tell me.

The clock nodded again, it seemed to be very satisfied with Aurora's way of talking now, from the fog suddenly appeared a newspaper. The black and white newspaper gently flew, circled a few times, and landed in front of her.

The newspaper headline was printed in large, eye-catching print: "Wife of real estate company director William Dylson suddenly attacked!"

Each letter is printed very clearly, the paper is black and white, but put together, it makes Aurora feel confused. It took her a while to carefully read the contents of the newspaper, in which the person being attacked was Kate Langley, the woman in the wedding photo with Aurora's father. And the one who attacked her was Aurora's mother - Breana Clayden.

In the captured photo, her mother's hair was loose, her face was crazy, and a few people restrained her. There was also a photo taken when she was in court, her body is thin and sick, and her eyes are blank and lifeless.

Aurora couldn't seem to believe her eyes. Her mother, a woman who always took care of her appearance, had to be neat to every detail. There were times when she looked pathetic like this.

Her happy family, now suddenly burst like soap bubbles. Everything becomes illusory. The father has become another's father, and the mother has become a criminal and is in prison.

She clenched the newspaper, knuckles turning white.

The watch had no eyes, but she felt it was looking at her. This look made her feel extremely embarrassed. He looked at her like he was looking at a rabbit that had been forced to a dead end, with no way back, no choice. There is no longer a place to choose.

He laughed, a loud, mocking laugh.

– Well, do you want to take back your life, take it all back? Want to put everything back in its rightful place?

Aurora slowly let go of the newspaper in her hand, her eyes boiling with the will to fight. She replied to him:

- Of course, I want to.

The clock was circling happily, he told her.

- Well, then, what's stolen from you, you have to know how to get it back yourself. However, before going back to the past, you must make a contract with me.

Aurora frowned slightly. Suddenly, she had a bad premonition. But right now, she had no other choice. Even if this damn watch offered a slave contract, she still had to sign it.

In front of the watch fought condensed an ancient page of the paper, which gave off a pale yellow aura with cryptic characters. The clock spoke slowly, its voice still hoarse and hard to hear, but exuding a sense of power:

- I will help you return to the past and prevent the time paradox from happening. If you succeed, you will have everything back: your family, your parents, your life. But if you fail, you will lose everything. You will be stripped of your soul and disappear into nothingness. Human, do you want to sign this contract with me?

Aurora looked at the light spreading from that page and was silent for a long time, her heart still had concerns. Seeing that Aurora was silent, the watch repeated the once more:

- Do you want to sign this contract with me?

This time, Aurora got her sanity back. She immediately nodded, and she replied decisively:

- Yes. I want to sign this contract.

After Aurora finished speaking, a white light enveloped her and quickly disappeared. However, she felt a heavy chest, as if something had tied her soul.

The watch says:

- You also signed a contract, so now, we can go back to the past immediately. I will talk a little bit about how to go back to the past…

His words are not over yet, Aurora interrupted him, her eyes full of pleading.

– Before that, can you take me to see my mother? I want to see her, see how she is.

The clock paused for a moment as if thinking. Aurora looked up at him, waiting patiently.

She wanted to make everything clear, everything was too vague and confusing. One newspaper was not enough, she needed more information.
