Then, one day, a young man suddenly stepped in front of me. "Dad!" I froze. He looked at me through tear-filled, bloodshot eyes. "I'm your son—20 years from now. Please, stop suspecting Mom. There has never been another man."My face went pale. "If you keep treating her like this, Mom will die within a year because of your suspicions. And you'll regret it for the rest of your life." I stood there, completely stunned. The young man wiped away his tears and continued, "Mom really loves you. The day she died, you were furious because you found a lighter in her pocket."You thought it belonged to another man. But Mom wanted to make it up to you, so she drove nearly 200 miles to buy you the limited-edition watch you'd always wanted."She never made it home. She got caught in a massive pileup on the highway." His voice broke. "Until the very end, Mom was still clutching that watch box in her hands." He lowered his head, struggling to hold back his tears. "I came because I

I stared into Hallie's reddened eyes, unable to believe how absurd she was being.Four years ago, the system had given me a chance to return home.At the time, I had just been promoted in my original world. I was financially comfortable, my parents were healthy, and they were waiting for me to come home.So, I chose to return to the world I came from. The moment I made that choice, this body began rapidly deteriorating. Doctors ran test after test, but none of them could figure out what was wrong with me.The woman who was always so proud in the business world humbled herself and begged every renowned specialist she could find to save me.Every night, she would hold my thin, skeletal hand and secretly cry. She could never sleep peacefully. Whenever she woke in the middle of the night, the first thing she would do was press her ear against my sunken chest, trembling as she listened for my heartbeat. It was unbearable to watch her suffer like that because, somewhere along the wa

I opened my eyes and stared blankly at the ceiling, unable to tell whether reality had become too absurd or if the dream had simply turned cruelly ironic.She was pregnant. Five weeks along. In a world where even I was about to disappear, who would be there to love and protect this little life that had arrived at such a time?A bitter laugh escaped me. "I wouldn't exactly call that good news." The nurse froze, caught off guard by my response. "Sebastian! What are you talking about?" The door opened, and Hallie strode into the room, barely containing her anger. "That's your baby. Aren't you happy?" But the moment she saw how pale I was, she stopped. Her anger faded, replaced by a softer tone. "We spent three years trying to have this baby. After everything we went through, we finally got pregnant. Why would you say something like that?"Her words burned in my throat, and a bitter, mocking laugh escaped me. She wasn't wrong. We had spent three whole years trying to h

Hallie forced down the sudden flutter in her chest and paced across the hospital room, irritation written across her striking features.She pulled out her phone and called one of her subordinates. Her voice was low and cold."Have the arrangements been made? Send Sebastian to the private estate to recover. I want the best doctors and nursing staff there."The image of Sebastian's pale, gaunt face flashed through her mind. Her brows drew together. "Send over a supply of high-quality ingredients too. I want his meal plan sent to me every night for review. And if he refuses to eat, find a way to make sure he does."She ended the call.For a moment, she simply stood there, her thumb slowly brushing across the screen of her phone as she stared at nothing in particular. The truth was, Hallie still resented him. The party had descended into chaos that day, and she still couldn't accept that Sebastian had actually caused the loss of their child because of his jealousy and suspicion.

The smile on Wyatt's lips instantly froze.He watched helplessly as Hallie turned and strode toward the door. His fingers dug into his palm as he fought the urge to stop her.If he tried to stop her now, he'd only make himself look guilty and risk giving himself away.He quickly pulled out his phone, turned his back to Hallie, and sent a message to the bodyguard he'd bribed."She's heading to the estate. Stick to the plan. Tell her you saw Sebastian leave with your own eyes." Hallie started the engine. She had barely made it through the gates when her phone rang.It was the bodyguard. His voice was frantic. "Ms. Larsen! Mr. Castro is gone! He somehow picked the lock and escaped!" "Are you serious?" Hallie slammed on the brakes, her voice rising sharply."You had an entire team watching him, and you still let him get away? Find him!" She hung up, and silence descended over the car. For a long moment, Hallie sat motionless behind the wheel, her expression dark and unreadabl
