Three Years Dead, Finally Remembered のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 9

I hovered at the edge of the bed, watching as Mom yanked the child by the collar, her face twisted with impatience."Nonsense!" she snapped. "The doctors said Cassidy had a strong constitution. How could she die of organ failure?"The child's voice trembled. "I'm not lying! And… Cassidy used to throw up blood all the time when she did odd jobs.""That's enough!" Mom shoved her away violently. "Three years ago, Cassidy stole all the jewelry in this house and took the maid with her. How could she possibly be doing odd jobs?"The child broke down, tears streaming.Mom lifted her head and glared at the crowd. "Cassidy! I know you're here. Get out here right now!"Someone in the crowd scooped up the child, shooting Mom a look full of disdain."Just because you're rich doesn't mean you can bully a child! This kid's not lying. Cassidy really did die three years ago! If you don't believe it, go check under the bed yourself!"The crowd parted.Mom ordered someone to overturn the ricket

As soon as Rachel arrived at the hospital, she woke up. The doctors examined her and confirmed that she was unharmed.I hovered nearby and couldn't help but snicker. Rachel's fainting act worked every time—Mom never questioned it.The doctors urged that Rachel undergo a bone marrow transplant as soon as possible. Only then did Mom remember me and ordered someone to return to the basement to find me.The bodyguards returned quickly. "Madam, the maid Tammy is no longer in the basement, and we couldn't locate Miss Cassidy either."Rachel's brow furrowed. "But didn't Tammy say her legs were ruined? How could she have left so quickly?"Mom's face darkened, teeth clenched with rage. "Of course, Tammy was faking it! Cassidy must have taught her."Seeing Mom provoked, Rachel's lips quivered, and suddenly tears streamed down her cheeks."Mom… please don't blame Cassidy anymore. It's fine. I've made peace with dying… I just can't bear to leave you."Mom tenderly ruffled her hair."Darli

Soon after, Mom's assistant sent over my cremation certificate.Mom stared at it, frozen, unable to move. Her hand unconsciously loosened, and the phone slipped to the floor. Her lips trembled as she muttered to herself, "Impossible… impossible…"Then, with a sudden surge of anger, she snatched up the phone and called the funeral home.She screamed, cursing them without restraint."How dare you claim my daughter is dead! Cassidy isn't dead at all—this cremation certificate is fake! Fake! I'm suing your funeral home!"After hanging up, her hands shook uncontrollably. She bit her lip, forcing herself to stay calm.She called her assistant again, her voice quivering."Go to the hospital immediately. Investigate Cassidy's emergency records… and her death certificate."She muttered under her breath, "It's fine… this is all Cassidy's trick. She's still alive!"But soon, Mom could no longer hold back. She began hurling objects across the room. The more she threw, the more her body sh

Mom glared at Bruce."What are you saying? Are you planning to lay a hand on Rachel? Don't you dare touch her!"Bruce let out a bitter laugh."Rachel isn't your daughter at all. Your youngest daughter died from a premature birth years ago. Your husband replaced her with his illegitimate child."Mom's face darkened."Bruce, you'll get the compensation you want. But if you keep lying, not a single cent will reach you!"Fear did not cross Bruce's face. He pulled out a DNA report showing Mom and Rachel.The results were unmistakable: there was no mother-daughter relationship between them.I glanced at Mom's face and remembered how, as a child, everyone said I looked like her. But my sister—Rachel—looked like neither Mom nor Dad. Whenever someone teased, Mom would scowl, favoring Rachel deliberately.And now it all made sense: this "sister" had been born of an affair.Mom's eyes were bloodshot as she spoke in a low, cutting voice, "Guards! Bring Rachel back home immediately—by for

The elite bodyguards quickly subdued Rachel and her entourage.Mom's eyes were red, her fingers gripping Rachel's jaw with iron resolve."It's your turn to rot in the basement! I'll make sure you pay a terrible price for your sins!"Now truly afraid, Rachel fell to her knees, begging, "Mom, I was wrong! I'll never do it again! We've been mother and daughter for so many years… please, just forgive me this once!"Mom's eyes blazed with fury. She tightened her grip."Never! All the suffering Cassidy endured over the years will be returned to you twofold!"The elite guards roughly threw Rachel into the dark, damp basement.Mom's fists clenched as she remembered the pain I had endured. Gritting her teeth, she ordered the guards."Gather all evidence of Rachel's crimes immediately!"Meanwhile, Rachel threw a tantrum, smashing everything in the basement. She screamed endlessly, demanding to be let out.I floated above, watching her rage, feeling a grim satisfaction. She had assumed
