Another phone number was also flooded with calls. No one ever picked up, but a recorded message played in a loop, "I wish you peace and a happy, long life."The number Ben called the most was that one.In the dim study, as he listened to Hailey's voice over and over, tears slid silently down his face. It was a long time before he noticed Samantha standing at the door.…"Germany?"When he heard Samantha's request, Ben frowned. "Didn't you already pass the Concord Medical assessment? Why give that up? Wasn't this your dream?""Yes. But… I want to switch to gastroenterology and specialize in stomach diseases."At the word "stomach," Ben paused.Then he spoke, voice low and heavy, "So everything you studied in dermatology these past years… was for nothing?""I really want to switch to gastroenterology."The study fell into silence.Ben finally gave a small nod. "All right."As Samantha's plane took off, Ben drifted through the next six months in a kind of numbness.Meanwhile,

William gripped my hand tighter. When he saw my lips move again, he leaned closer."…Don't forget me…" I muttered.The monitor shrieked in alarm, and my heartbeat flatlined into a single line.…The video cut off.Ben's breathing turned unsteady.William turned his head and took off his baseball cap, revealing the dark circles beneath his eyes from too many sleepless nights editing.Ben heard his own voice tremble. "Where is she?""The morgue."Without another word, Ben turned and left, ignoring the live stream still running.His men followed him to the hospital entrance. He rushed for the stairs and started climbing. Then he stumbled and fell hard to his knees, not even glancing at them before pushing himself back up.He didn't stop until he saw my body."…Hailey?"Ben approached slowly, hand raised, unsure where to touch. Finally, his fingers trembled as they landed on my face."Why are you lying in a place this cold? Come on, let's go home. Time for dinner. I was just

[I agree! Ben, cherish your adopted sis well!]…I kept scrolling through the comments, brushing past more comments just like that. Every now and then, I gave one a like.The next second, my phone was yanked from my hand.William clenched his jaw. "What's so interesting about this? People like him don't deserve to be called a brother.""Don't say that." I smiled. "He's the best brother in the world.""You're still defending him? Even now?" William's voice trembled with suppressed rage. "He practically congratulated you on dying."I was quiet for a moment. Then, I took back the phone and showed him the most recent seven-figure transfer."Anonymous. They come in every few days." My tone was light. "But I know it's him."William froze. The veins on the back of his hand bulged as he gripped the phone."He's always been like that—harsh words, soft heart. There's no way he doesn't hate me. He probably hates me more than anyone else. But… he's not someone who lets go of feelings eas

Ben paused for a second. Then the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. "Well then, congratulations?""Ben, you—""I don't know who you are, and I'm not interested in hearing your story. Right now..." He glanced at his watch. "My sister's about to get out of school. I need to pick her up and take her home for dinner. I won't be keeping you company any longer."With that, he hung up.I let out a soft laugh. "He used to cook for me too, all the time."The bed began moving toward the operating room.William gripped my hand tightly. I forced a small smile."What are you so afraid of?" I asked."If you don't make it out... what am I supposed to do?" he said.I paused. Then, I said quietly, "Then let's meet again in the next life."Our hands were pulled apart, and the doors of the operating room closed behind me.…[In the Next Life — March 16, 2024, 2:07 AM — I'm Turning Into An Angel]In the footage, I'm lying on the hospital bed.

"I know, I know… You don't have to forgive me. Don't ever forgive me. Just keep walking—walk all the way home. To a warm and peaceful home..."Dante closed his eyes.A sharp pain surged through my stomach, making me dizzy. I turned and stumbled outside, throwing up violently by the flower bed.By the time William found me, I was sitting on the bench beside the flower bed, dazed."Hailey!" He rushed to my side, panic in his voice. "How are you feeling?"I turned to him, my face streaked with tears. "You want the truth?""Of course.""I'm scared. I just… want someone to help me."He pulled me into his arms and gently wiped the tears from my face. "It's okay. I'll take you to the hospital right now. We'll hear what the doctors have to say. And while we're there, we'll do the chemo. I have money.""Thank you." I smiled and shook my head. "But I've already talked to plenty of doctors. The chemo… It's a lie. It stopped working a long time ago. Do you even know what 'terminal stage'

"The day I left, I tore into him, called him every name under the sun. In the end, he held onto my arm, crying, begging me to stay. He said things would get better soon, that he'd bring us back to how things used to be. You see him now, all polished and put-together. You'd never imagine how pathetic he looked back then," I said as I recalled the past.William spoke in a low voice, "Why did he finally let you go?"I thought back. "I told him he was a failure. That everything he'd achieved in the past was just because of our parents. And now he was just disgracing their name. I said if he still remembered what family meant, he should let me go and find my own happiness. And then, bit by bit, he loosened his grip on me."The New Year's bell rang. Fireworks burst outside the window. I raised a hand and wiped the tears off my face.…[In the Next Life — January 1, 2024, 12:00 AM — I Hope You Live a Long Life, Part Three]William turned to the window."Happy New Year.""Thanks.""Ar
