Chapter 7

Author: Green Mayonnaise
Whatever happened between Linda and Noah was their own business.

My mother lowered her eyes and had the housekeeper escort them outside.

She still clutched the album about me, refusing to let go. Her eyes were red, but they also held a hint of relief.

I smiled gently.

[Mom, it's time for you to start a new life too.]

A breeze stirred the ends of my hair and set the wind chime I had made as a child swaying.

I never expected my mother to bring it here too.

She stared at the wind chime in a d

  • He Found Me After I Died   Chapter 8

    When spring gave way to summer, Linda went into labor.The baby was in an awkward position, making a vaginal delivery difficult. But Linda's family insisted that only a natural birth would bless the child and ensure prosperity for her future husband's family.Linda's mother stubbornly believed that Noah would care about such things in business.As long as the delivery went well, Noah would stop putting off the wedding.She invited a spiritualist to perform a ritual for Linda.I didn't know whether such superstition could actually help. I only knew that every time the bell in the spiritualist's hand moved, a terrible pain shot through my head.The spiritualist claimed that Linda was having a difficult labor because she came into contact with something unclean.But Heaven knew that I had never harbored a single evil thought. Why was I the one being punished?I collapsed on the floor, writhing in agony.Noah smoked silently nearby.I wanted to grab his sleeve and make him stop t

    Whatever happened between Linda and Noah was their own business.My mother lowered her eyes and had the housekeeper escort them outside.She still clutched the album about me, refusing to let go. Her eyes were red, but they also held a hint of relief.I smiled gently.[Mom, it's time for you to start a new life too.]A breeze stirred the ends of my hair and set the wind chime I had made as a child swaying.I never expected my mother to bring it here too.She stared at the wind chime in a daze."Belle? Belle, are you here?"I desperately shook the wind chime and blew at it, trying to tell her that I was there, but I couldn't move it even slightly.The breeze, however, swept through again.The wind chime rang once more with a clear, delicate sound.My mother smiled, and then she began to cry."Belle, don't worry. I am doing very well. I just miss you a little."You have to be well too. In our next lives, we'll be a family again."I nodded and turned away.My final attachme

    My mother glared at Linda angrily and finally asked the question I had always wanted to ask."And what about you? After our Belle married Noah, did you not try to win him over?"Linda faltered for a moment before immediately defending herself."Belle and I met Noah at the same time. You could say we were competing fairly for his affection. Who knew which of us would win his heart until the very end?"My mother laughed in disbelief at Linda's shameless words, and so did I.It wasn't as though I had never noticed Linda's private conversations with Noah.But I considered Linda my best friend, so I had never used such malicious thoughts to interpret their exchanges.I also stopped contacting her after I fell ill because I was afraid of hurting her.When I watched her leave the country with Noah, I had even felt relieved.I never expected her to be this kind of person.My mother ignored Linda and handed Noah an old business card.The name and phone number on it belonged to the ac

    Noah stared at my mother with wide eyes."What do you mean?"Linda looked unconvinced. She had gone overseas to study around the same time as Noah, and she had lost contact with me afterward.In her mind, I should have been living a wonderful life."Mrs. Hart, everyone from our college knows that Belle cheated on Noah."Even if you're trying to clear Belle's name, you don't have to make up something this outrageous, do you?"My mother swept a cold gaze over her.Noah wanted to defend Linda, but he no longer had the courage.A suspicion he had buried deep inside was being confirmed, yet he refused to believe it.His fingers trembled as he reached out to help my mother up, but she slapped his hand away again without mercy.The moment she revealed the truth, my mother seemed to age before their eyes.She wanted to keep my secret, but she couldn't bear to see me so unfairly maligned.She looked at the man and woman before her. Her stern expression gave way to helplessness.Adm

    The person on the other end clicked their tongue before hanging up.Something inside me collapsed with a deafening crash.So that was how it was.It made sense. Linda would only feel reassured if Noah proved that he had moved on.I forced a smile and crouched on the ground.A moment later, it seemed to be raining. Drop after drop fell onto the ground.I looked up and realized that Noah was wiping away tears, his voice strained with suppressed emotion."Belle, where did you disappear to? You really are hard to find."I instinctively stood up and reached out to wipe away his tears, only to remember once again that I was nothing more than air.[I'm right here. You're searching for me so stubbornly. Does this wedding really need me to be there?]I sighed.Noah set off without hesitation after learning my address.I resigned myself to the passenger seat, just as I used to sit beside him while he drove me home.His car hadn't been nearly as expensive or spacious back then, but i

    Linda was pregnant.I stared at her baby bump and felt cold all over.I thought I would accept the reality of Noah having a happy family.But I couldn't accept that Noah was with Linda, especially when she had fabricated all those stories about me.I followed Noah around resentfully.He didn't believe her, did he?[Noah! Use your head! How could I possibly be that kind of person?]Noah couldn't hear my frantic shouting, but during a break from work, he drove his Cullinan to my former home.No one had lived in my old home for years.My mother couldn't bear to face my death. She couldn't bring herself to rent the place out either, so it remained empty and gathered a thick layer of dust.Noah stood helplessly in front of the rundown door, looking like a lost child.Whenever someone passed by, he stopped them and asked, "Excuse me, do you know Belle Hart? She used to live here.""Oh, young man, I'm getting old. I can't remember. No one's lived here for ages, has there?"He ask
