The room smelled like obsession.

Elaine Carter stood frozen in Lily’s bedroom doorway while thunder rattled the estate windows violently behind her. Every wall was covered with photographs of her.

Hundreds.

Maybe thousands.

Some were ordinary family pictures.

Others were hidden surveillance shots.

And some—

Some should not have existed at all.

Elaine’s pulse thundered painfully in her ears as she stared at a photograph pinned near the vanity mirror.

It showed her standing beside Adrian in a bal

    “Timeline Seven failed too.”The words echoed through the dark hallway like a death sentence.Elaine Carter stood frozen beside Adrian while the emergency red lights flickered overhead, bathing the mansion in a blood-colored glow.The stranger at the end of the hallway smiled calmly.Like this was expected.Like he had done this before.And somehow—That terrified Elaine more than the gun in his hand.Security guards rushed upstairs instantly.“Drop the weapon!”But the man barely glanced at them.His eyes stayed fixed on Adrian.Then slowly—On Elaine.Recognition flashed across his face.Not curiosity.Recognition.Like he already knew her.Like everyone suddenly already knew her.Elaine hated that feeling.The guards moved carefully closer.One wrong move and somebody would die.The stranger sighed softly.“You people really never learn.”Then everything happened at once.The lights exploded.Gunshots echoed violently.Servants screamed downstairs.And the stranger vanished into da

    The room smelled like obsession.Elaine Carter stood frozen in Lily’s bedroom doorway while thunder rattled the estate windows violently behind her. Every wall was covered with photographs of her.Hundreds.Maybe thousands.Some were ordinary family pictures.Others were hidden surveillance shots.And some—Some should not have existed at all.Elaine’s pulse thundered painfully in her ears as she stared at a photograph pinned near the vanity mirror.It showed her standing beside Adrian in a ballroom she had never visited in this timeline.She wore a silver dress stained with blood.Adrian’s arm wrapped protectively around her waist.Both of them looked terrified.A date was written beneath the photograph.Three months from now.Impossible.Completely impossible.Richard Carter looked horrified beside her.“What is this?”No one answered.Because no one knew how to explain it anymore.How could they?How could Elaine explain that timelines were repeating?Did Lily remember previous liv

    The gunshot echoed through the Carter estate like the beginning of a nightmare.Elaine Carter’s pulse exploded violently as Adrian pulled her sharply behind him, shielding her instinctively while chaos erupted downstairs.Servants screamed.Glass shattered somewhere in the west wing.Thunder roared above the mansion like war drums.And beneath all of it—Elaine could feel it.Something had finally broken.Adrian’s grip tightened around her wrist as they rushed back inside from the balcony. The grand hallway below had descended into panic. Security guards stormed through the corridors while Richard Carter shouted furiously near the staircase.Daniel Hayes sat collapsed against the wall, pale and shaken, blood staining his sleeve.But he wasn’t the one who had been shot.Elaine noticed immediately.A bodyguard lay unconscious near the entrance doors.Gunpowder still lingered faintly in the air.“What happened?” Adrian demanded sharply.One of the guards answered breathlessly. “Someone f

    The scream echoed through the underground corridor like a knife dragged across glass.Elaine Carter froze instantly.Every instinct in her body sharpened at once.The sound had come from deeper inside the hidden level beneath the estate.A woman’s scream.Terrified.Cut off too suddenly.Adrian’s expression hardened immediately beside her.“Stay behind me.”Elaine narrowed her eyes. “You keep saying that like I enjoy listening.”“This isn’t the time to argue.”“Technically, you started the argument.”Adrian stared at her for half a second.Then, despite the tension—A short laugh escaped him.“You’re unbelievable.”“And yet you’re obsessed with me.”His gaze darkened slightly.“Unfortunately.”Elaine’s heartbeat betrayed her again.Wrong timing.Very wrong timing.Because somewhere in these underground halls, someone could be hurt… or dead.And somehow Adrian Vale still managed to make her nervous with a single look.Annoying man.Another sound echoed through the corridor.A metallic

    The scream shattered the night.Elaine Carter’s heartbeat lurched violently as another crashing sound echoed from inside the estate, followed by hurried footsteps and frightened voices.Rain poured relentlessly over the mansion grounds, thunder rolling across the sky like a warning.Adrian moved first.“Stay close to me,” he said sharply.Elaine almost argued out of instinct—until another scream cut through the air.This one sounded terrified.Not dramatic.Not startled.Terrified.And suddenly, even Elaine’s pride knew better than to protest.Together, they rushed back toward the estate.The grand doors were already open when they entered. Servants crowded the entrance hall in panic, whispering anxiously among themselves while security guards moved toward the eastern wing.“What happened?” Elaine demanded immediately.One of the maids looked pale. “Someone broke into your room, Miss Elaine.”Her blood ran cold.“What?”“They—we heard glass breaking,” the maid stammered. “When securit

  • REBORN TO TAKE REVENGE ON MY STEPSISTER   Chapter Eight: Secrets Beneath the Estate

    The Carter estate had too many secrets.Elaine Carter realized that fully three nights after the blackout incident.Since then, the atmosphere inside the mansion had changed in subtle but unmistakable ways. Servants whispered more quietly. Security guards appeared in hallways where none had stood before. Even her father seemed more distracted, constantly buried in meetings and phone calls.And Lily?Lily had become quieter.That alone was terrifying.Because Lily Carter was never silent unless she was planning something.Elaine stood in front of her bedroom mirror one rainy evening, adjusting the sleeve of her black satin blouse. Her reflection looked calm, elegant, and composed.But inside?Her thoughts were in chaos.The photographs still haunted her.Especially the missing one.Who took them?Why was one photograph removed?And more importantly—What exactly had Lily become desperate enough to hide?A soft knock interrupted her thoughts.Before Elaine could answer, the door opened
