A Place Called Perfect

My sister had always despised school. So when she suddenly declared she wanted to go to college—and even urged our parents to marry me off to a high-ranking officer's son to fund her studies—I knew at once: she had been reborn too. In our previous life, my sister believed studying was pointless. She barely graduated high school before marrying Anthony Brown, the officer's son who had come to propose with a pretty penny. However, when Anthony was later transferred to a remote outpost, she found the harsh conditions unbearable and refused to follow him. Meanwhile, I worked part-time jobs to put myself through college, landed a secure job after graduation, and became a full-fledged city resident. My sister, still living in the military compound, started using her father-in-law's name to take bribes. Her actions dragged him into a scandal and got him dismissed from his position. Eventually, my mother-in-law kicked her out. After the divorce, she was tricked into investing in stocks in Eastbridge City. The market crashed, and she lost all of our parents' retirement savings. Desperate and with nowhere to go, she turned to me. Cornering me with a knife, she demanded I hand over my savings and apartment so she could "start over." In the chaos, she stabbed me twelve times. I died from massive blood loss. When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the moment she asked our parents to marry me off to Anthony. This time, I smiled, said yes—and dropped out of school that very day.

Flora hancur. Ia pergi membawa luka dan sebuah rahasia besar—bahwa ia tengah mengandung anak Nathan yang kini berusia empat bulan dalam kandungannya. Tak ingin anaknya tumbuh dalam lingkungan penuh kebencian, Flora memilih untuk diam dan menghilang. Ia pindah ke sebuah desa terpencil bersama neneknya yang bernama Marlina, yang kini sudah rentan berusia 72 tahun, lalu melahirkan seorang bayi perempuan cantik dan manis yang ia beri nama Nayla, dia putih bermata khas seperti ayahnya. Flora Andini, seorang wanita yang kini berusia 24 tahun dan tubuh mungil itu harus membesarkan Nayla dengan penuh kasih sayang, menjalani kehidupan sederhana sebagai petani, meskipun hidup dalam keterbatasan, namun damai. Tiga tahun berlalu. Kehidupan Flora tampak tenang meski sering kali dihimpit kesulitan ekonomi. Nayla, putrinya, tumbuh menjadi gadis kecil yang cerdas dan manis. Namun, takdir kembali mempertemukannya dengan masa lalu. Perusahaan Marshall Group membuka sebuah proyek besar di dekat desa tempat Flora tinggal. Nathan turun langsung untuk meninjau proyek tersebut dan tanpa sengaja ia melihat Flora bersama Nayla. Seketika hatinya terusik—wajah Nayla terlalu mirip dengannya. Terlalu familiar untuknya. Didorong oleh rasa penasaran yang besar, Nathan meminta asistennya untuk melakukan penyelidikan. Hasil penyelidikan itu mengguncang hatinya: Nayla adalah anak kandungnya. "Nayla anakku, bukan anakmu! Ia bukan bagian dari keluarga Marshall!” seru Flora di malam itu, setelah Nathan mengembalikan Nayla yang sempat menghilang selama hampir 24 jam. Peristiwa itu membuat Flora dan neneknya panik bukan main. “Dia anakku, Flora! Kau tak bisa terus mengelak!” Nathan membalas dengan nada tinggi. “Bagaimanapun, darahku mengalir di tubuh Nayla. Ia adalah darah dagingku!”

From the time I was ten until I turned eighteen, my parents made me write 299 IOUs. Every time I needed money, I had to borrow it and pay it back as an adult. Then I got into a car accident. I needed money for surgery but was still short by 3,000. With no other options, I went to my parents for help. But they just gave me cold smiles. “Clara, you’re eighteen now. We have no obligation to give you money anymore. If you need it, write another IOU.” While holding back tears, I wrote my 300th IOU. After my surgery, I saw my adopted sister’s social media post. In the pictures, she was celebrating her 18th birthday on a cruise. She was the center of attention, like a princess. My parents had given her a luxury apartment in the city and a Maserati as birthday gifts. Even my childhood friend was looking at her with love in his eyes. She said they were the ones she loved and thanked them for giving her the best of everything. I looked down at the crumpled IOU in my hand and suddenly laughed. Once I paid off my debt, I would no longer need such a family.

In my past life, I used the little one in my womb to force Richard Reynold into marrying me. On the day of our wedding, his beloved, Elise Brie, leaped into the sea, taking her own life. She left behind a letter saying: "True love is no match for power and money. It is my loss." Richard, after learning the news of her death, was unaffected. In fact, he went through our wedding with a smile on his face. However, on the day of our son's third birthday, Richard took us to a diving trip. While 300-feet underwater, he ripped off the tube of our oxygen tanks, drowning me and my son. After my death, my consciousness remained as a spirit. I watched on as he placed my corpse in front of Elise's grave as an offering. He said, "Ellie, I've finally avenged you. I hope this will bring you some peace in your afterlife." Soon after, my vision darkened. When I opened my eyes once more, I realized I was back at the night when I was trying to use our son to force Richard into marriage…

The wedding had reached the part where we were supposed to exchange rings, but my fiance wouldn’t say those two simple words: "I do." It was because his past love had just announced her breakup an hour ago. The post on social media included a picture of a plane ticket, the landing time just one hour away. My brother suddenly stepped forward and announced to everyone that the wedding would be delayed. Without a word, they both left me standing there, turning me into a laughingstock. I calmly dealt with everything, glancing at the new social media post from his past love. In the photo, my brother and fiance were standing around her, offering her the best of everything. I laughed bitterly and dialed my parents' number. "Dad, Mom, I'm willing to come home and marry into the Sanford family."

Tricia had been abused by her husband and asked to stay at my place for a while. I felt sorry for her and agreed to let her stay temporarily. But just two weeks later, she unexpectedly found out she was pregnant. I was about to ask her what had happened when her husband suddenly showed up and broke my husband's leg before dragging my whole family into court. In court, Tricia sobbed uncontrollably, accusing my husband, Jayden Lowe, of being a predator and claiming he had assaulted her while she was living with us. She said I didn't just ignore it but helped him carry it out. Jayden and I denied everything in court, but she pulled out an amniocentesis report, proving that the baby was indeed Jayden's. The internet exploded with hate against us, and the court sentenced both of us to prison, ordering us to pay her ten million in emotional damages. In the end, Jayden and I went to jail, while Tricia took that ten million, aborted the baby, and lived happily ever after with her husband. When I open my eyes again, I am back to the very day Tricia came to stay at my house.
