REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 38: AUDITION
ETHAN The thought finally brought a genuine smile to my face, and my earlier weariness dissipated. Though it was dangerous and might leave me sick in the stomach every day, it was still a good move at the moment. Fighting with someone as experienced as Vesper and Nick, attacking them head-on might backfire, too. Especially with Nick being an actor and being able to control public opinion. I wouldn't want to fall into their trap. No, in this life, they could only be the ones to suffer. I couldn't, and I wouldn't suffer. I watched patiently as the people walked in and out, auditioning, thanking the judges, and leaving their names as they filed out of the room. Soon, someone stepped in. A familiar actor. My brows creased. This was Raviel, Nick's ultimate rival in the future. The two were always fighting over an award or drama. Honestly, Raviel was more of an actor than Nick, and he was even more good-looking, but because Nick had the support of my family and Vesper's, Raviel wa
REBORN TO WIN: Father-in-law, Keep Me Alive. CHAPTER 37: CONFUSION
ETHANMy butt grew hot on Leander's lap. Embarrassment crept to my cheeks, turning them red and burning. My eyes wavered. Leander's eyes remained narrowed, his emotions unreadable, and his hand on my waist tightened. "What are you doing?" His voice was etched with warning. My chest heaved, on the verge of an explosion. Forcing myself to look back into those profound and unreadable eyes, my fingers curled, and my stomach lurched. I swallowed an imaginary lump in my throat and forced a smile. However, I had no idea what I really felt inwardly. I was wrong. Leander didn't love me...The realization should make me happy, right?"I was testing the ground. We are doing something deeper tomorrow, aren't we?" I tried to sound as composed as I could. "By the way, we've also done it yesterday. Why are you so rigid?" With that, I stood up, laughed awkwardly, and began arranging my suit. Leander was silent. With my back turned to him, I had no idea what his expression was or what was g
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
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 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
