REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 36: CURIOSITY
ETHANLeander's eyes flicked over me. He averted his gaze and pressed his thumb to his forehead... "Is that why you're here?" He sounded almost detached. I nodded. Despite knowing he wouldn't see. "No." He replied. I expected that. I covered my mouth and chuckled. "What do I have to do?" Leander raised his eyes. "Nothing." My lips pursed. He was really stubborn. Standing up, I approached him and stood behind him. My fingers trailed from the back of his head to his temples, slowly pressing gently. Leander gripped my right hand. He raised his head to look into my eyes. His blue eyes stared into mine. Unreadable. Almost indifferent. "Don't." He warned. I stared back, resisting the urge to back off. "I want to." My lips curled. "You have a headache, don't you? Let me give you a warm massage." I offered. Leander's fingers tightened against mine. An unknown emotion flashed across his eyes for a moment. His lips pressed into a thin line. "I don't need it." His voice was low. Al
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 35:
ETHANOnly when I got inside did I remember that it was my first time coming to the office in this new life. In my past life, I had visited Leander in the office several times for different reasons. But in this life, I hadn't. I recently married his son, and before marriage, we weren't exactly that close. Even if we were, I wouldn't visit him in the office without a proper reason. After going through different stops, I finally sat in the assistant's office, waiting for him to finish his meeting. His assistant only glanced at me once before he continued with his job. He didn't know me well enough to let me into the boss's office. He also didn't want to disturb the boss's meeting. I could only sit there patiently, waiting for Leander to be done. An hour passed. Two hours. Three hours. My butt began to ache. I raised my head to look at the assistant, who was still working away. "Excuse me, when will he be done?" It was taking too long. The assistant coughed awkwardly. He picked
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 34: BUTTERFLY EFFECT
ETHANThe thought of the audition kept my mind fully occupied all morning. So much that I couldn't listen to the words Nick and Vesper said. After a while, I pushed aside the plates and stood up. "I'm leaving." Nick raised a brow. "Where?" I glanced at him, and my expression remained casual and bold. "Office." He looked taken aback. His lips parted like he had a lot to say, yet he was unable to say anything. Without waiting for him to gather his thoughts, I turned around to leave. A sharp clank followed by the sound of the seat being pushed aside. "Baby," Vesper called urgently. I stopped without turning to look at him. "Let me drop you off." He offered. My brows raised. "Nick is still around," I mentioned. Why would he want to leave Nick behind? Wasn't he always the one preaching about how a guest shouldn't be left alone at home and how I, even while heavily pregnant, should go to the hospital for a check-up alone? I rubbed my nose and smiled quietly. "Don't worry." Wit
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 33: AN AUDITION
ETHAN The thought was on my mind even as I closed my eyes to sleep. It weighed heavily on my mind. I tried hard to remember how we met and the things we'd done together. However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find a reason for him to hate me this much. We've fought several times in the past. From trivial situations to normal friends' bickering. But every time, we ended up sorting things out and becoming friends again. Thinking about those small fights, we both had faults. He was either at fault or I was. Also, none of those issues were enough to warrant hatred. They weren't. Perhaps he was just too greedy. But I honestly couldn't believe that was the only reason...My eyes grew heavier as I yawned repeatedly. My mind grew foggy, and I slowly became too lazy to think about Nick or even anyone else. Closing my eyes, I let out a deep breath and slowly sank into the sweet embrace of sleep. Not long after, I heard the door opening, and then someone was sleeping beside me
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 32: RECORDING
ETHAN*I felt weak all over, unwilling to stand up to follow. The thought of waking up to go to the office the next day kept me in bed for a few minutes. Different thoughts ran through my mind. From leaving it to gather the evidence later, to calling Gabriel to take their videos. But I knew more than anyone that Gabriel would never want to betray Vesper. In my past life, he had so many opportunities to tell me about Vesper's affairs, but he never did. Though I wouldn't blame him as he was only trying to be a good employee and remembering how much he cried after my death... however, I still couldn't truly rely on him to help with anything. After a few more minutes of rolling around in bed and cursing out the two pairs of dirty lovers, I finally dragged my ass off the bed and picked up a jacket. The night was too cold. After draping the big jacket on my shoulders, I picked up my phone and grudgingly left the room. My steps were light, and even my yawning was done in the lowest.
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 31: DELUSIONAL
ETHAN Getting to the room, I fell limply into bed and closed my eyes. My breathing soon became steady. The day had been truly long and stressful. I felt weak both mentally and physically. After dragging my body to a proper position in bed, I forced my eyes open and picked up my phone. I'd already forgotten what I intended to do today because of the issue with Vesper and Nick. I yawned lazily as I propped my body against the bed board and began operating on my phone. In no time, I began scrolling through the investment page with total concentration. In my past life, I hadn't invested in anything and had only relied on the investments my parents made in my name. Not like I had any reason to invest, though. But despite not being interested in making extra money, I still paid attention to some investments Vesper made back then. While wondering why he was struggling so hard,
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 29: LOWLY
ETHANNick was sitting in the sitting room while Vesper was nowhere to be found. Remembering where I left him earlier, I realized he might still be in the dining room. He probably hadn't noticed Nick's presence or was pretending not to. Nick's eyes settled on me the moment I got to the sitting ro
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 28: "GOOD NIGHT."
ETHANHearing his words, I found it hard to recover the smile on my face, and I couldn't help but turn around. Last life's memory kept replaying in my head like a serial drama. "My love." "Honey." "Hubby." The words kept ringing in my head. It was noisy, uncomfortable, and suffocating. I pres
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 27: THE GROUP
ETHANAfter being motivated, Vesper stopped thinking too much and began eating the already cold meals. I watched him eat for a while as my mind wandered. The urge to call Leander was getting stronger...Unable to hold it on anymore, I stood up. "I'll be back," I said to Vesper, who was staring at
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 26: DECEIT
ETHANGabriel served me while I ate. The meal was indeed delicious, and somehow, it reminded me of the dishes I ate in my past life. Vesper wouldn't often cook as he was mostly busy with his office work... or so he said to me. But whenever he did, I used to fully enjoy it. He once told me he lear
