Alia knew—at this very moment, she could not afford to lose.

This was more than a chase, more than a test. It was a silent contest of trust, power, and control. If she showed even a flicker of hesitation now, Jim would immediately brand her as manageable—someone who could be handled, steered, used. And once he placed her in that category, every future “partnership” between them would be nothing more than a slow process of being drained—her value measured, extracted, and discarded.

But if she co

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 381 — The End

    The blinding white light from the Holy Grail’s explosion lasted for a long time.Only when it gradually faded did everyone finally see—Standing at the very center of the lightwas Alia…—or Livia.She lifted her head, but her gaze was no longer focused on the reality before her.It was as though she were looking through layer upon layer of veils—into another world entirely.Because at the very moment the Holy Grail burst,she had willingly entered the Grail’s core,merging with its consciousness,speaking to it directly.And that “consciousness”—was Celesta’s soul.⸻◆ A Mother and Daughter ReunitedIt was a formless space—hazy, warm, and yet carrying centuries of accumulated sorrow.Celesta stood there quietly, as though she had never disappeared.Her expression was so gentle it could make a heart break—a face resembling Livia, and also Alia,yet more than anything,the unmistakable presence of a mother long buried in memory.“You’ve finally come,”Celesta said softly, her voice

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 380 — The Shattering of the Holy Grail

    Everyone was stunned.The shock spread through the air like an invisible pressure, tightening around their chests.The memory that had just been projected before them—vivid, immersive, as though they had personally lived through it—had snatched the breath from every single person, leaving them momentarily unable to react at all.When the vision vanished, the world fell into instant silence.Even the wind seemed sucked out of existence.Only the heavy, echoing thrum of heartbeats pounded deep within their ears.After a long, long moment—A faint, trembling inhale came from the ground.Alia moved.Her fingers twitched first, a subtle tremor like the first crack spreading across thawing ice.Then her lashes fluttered; her eyelids slowly lifted.In her eyes swirled a storm—fear, confusion, emptiness, pain—until, as her focus gradually sharpened, she realized—Everyone had seen that memory.She understood exactly what had happened.And in the next second, her tears burst forth—like a dam

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 379 — The Truth of It All

    ◆ Marcellus’s Truth: The Narrow Gap Between Sin and SalvationEveryone turned their gaze toward Marcellus.His breathing was steady—so steady it felt unnatural, like the dead-calm silence in the eye of a storm.A calm that only someone who had once shattered, and then painstakingly glued every shard back together, could possess.He began speaking slowly, his voice pulled up from somewhere deep in his chest—heavy, weighted:“…Back then, I was still under the Saint Grail’s influence.”The air seemed to hollow out for a moment.Marcellus continued, his tone not emotional, yet cold enough to slice:“Between Livia and me… all of you know it already—our relationship was broken beyond repair.I believed that no matter what I did, she would never forgive me.At the time… I was thinking that if I simply disappeared, maybe everything would be easier for everyone.”When he mentioned suicide, his voice grew as soft as falling snow.Elias and Alia unconsciously held their breath.Marcellus lifted

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 378 — Livia Dies, Alia Is Born

    ◆ Jim’s Truth: The Laughter of the Puppet MasterEveryone’s gaze snapped toward Jim.And Jim suddenly threw his head back—laughing.The sound ricocheted off the stone walls around the altar, sharp and metallic, cold enough to scrape bone.“Hahahahaha…You’re only realizing it now?”His voice dripped with mockery and feverish excitement, as if he were watching a grand chess match he had arranged piece by piece for years finally reach its climax.He lifted his chin, a manic gleam flickering in his eyes:“When I first laid eyes on her—I was startled too.”His laughter trembled with an eerie chill.“Because that look… that aura… that ridiculous little ‘act’ she put on… everything screamed a truth none of you could ever hope to notice.”He took slow, deliberate steps forward, savoring their shock like a fine wine:“She had been touched by the Holy Grail.Influenced.Changed.”“You may have grasped only half the truth…But I know the Grail’s rules better than any of you.”Jim placed a hand

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 377 — Alia’s Training

    ◆ The Truth Unfolds: Wishes, the Cup Handle, Blood, and “Deviation”The light curtain of the Holy Grail’s memory had not even dispersed whenanother layer—deeper, darker, more concealed—began to unfurl like a second veil of truth.It showed the moment when the cup handle first came into contact with Livia.Inside a dimly lit chamber of the castle, the young Livia clutched the cup handle with both hands.Her fingertips had turned pale from the force, her knuckles trembled ever so slightly.Tears streamed down her cheeks in an uncontrollable flow, and her lips silently mouthed the same wish over and over:—“I want to be more useful.”—“I want everyone to stop suffering because of me.”—“I hope… I won’t be the weak one anymore.”These wishes were never meant to be heard by the cup handle.The cup handle was merely a fragment of the Holy Grail—a vessel incapable of granting prayers.But—That very day, it had recently absorbed Marcellus’s blood.The blood granted it a faint, fleeting abil

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 376 — Alia? Livia!

    But when the column of light fell upon Alia, she did not collapse, nor did she so much as cry out in pain.Instead—It was as if the air itself were gently parted by an invisible hand.A ring of translucent ripples spread outward from Alia’s feet, slow and silent, like a drop of water disturbing a still lake.And then, all at once, everyone’s pupils constricted.Because memories appeared.Not inside Alia’s mind—but projected into reality itself, unfolding like a vivid, silent illusion across the air.And every single person present could see them.It felt as though they were all being pulled into Livia’s world.⸻◆ The Memories BeginAt first, Alia’s body still stood within the beam of light.But the perspective in the projected image—her movements, the way the world framed around her—shifted subtly, unmistakably.This was not Alia.This was— Livia.Livia walked down an ancient stone path, her steps soft yet unbearably heavy.Her body looked drained to the point of collapse, shoulder

    “I’m not sure,” Emma said, her brows slightly furrowed. A shadow of memory passed through her eyes as she slowly shook her head. Her voice was low, but firm. “I first started having doubts after you were kidnapped.”Livia froze, then turned slightly toward Emma with a puzzled look. “Kidnapped? Why?

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 175: The Night Meeting – Eryx’s Arrival！

    Night had fallen deep and heavy. The stars outside were obscured by thick clouds, and a soft wind passed through the tall firs surrounding the conference hall, making the branches tremble with a faint rustle. Deep within the hall, the amber glow of a dignified chandelier spilled softly across the r

    Eryx’s gaze sharpened slightly. Though the faint smile remained on his face—polite, indifferent—there was a flicker of surprise in his heart.He had assumed this meeting would be little more than a formality following Livia’s appointment. A few hollow words, some ceremonial posture—nothing more. Wh

    Time slipped by quietly, unnoticed. As the conversation between the two deepened, they grew more engrossed, the warm golden light in the hospital room spreading between them like a soft, tranquil embrace.Livia was leaning over the final map, her voice low and focused: “If we reroute through the Ea
