Guess Who's Not Coming BackI came back to life the day Cedric Gramont got drugged. This time? I didn't offer my body to him. I called his so-called soulmate instead.
In my last life, I stupidly fell for the uncle who wasn't blood-related.
When I found out he'd been hit with something strong, I ignored his plea to call Elyna Humbert—and "helped" him myself.
A month later, I was pregnant.
He had to marry me. On our wedding day, Elyna, who'd gone abroad to "clear her head," got kidnapped and killed.
Before she died, she called Cedric 199 times, begging for help.
He didn't pick up once. Too busy sealing the deal with me.
Later, he just stared at those missed calls, not saying a word.
Then the day I went into labor, he locked me in the basement.
I begged him to take me to the hospital. He just smiled, cold and empty, and watched me die screaming, the baby still inside me.
Last thing I heard? "If you hadn't gotten pregnant, I wouldn't have married you. I wouldn't have missed Elyna's calls. You deserved to die."
When I opened my eyes again, it was that same day—Cedric was drugged, but this time, I knew better.
