Gambar Karma Akabane

An unserem Hochzeitstag ließ mein Freund Hayden Grant mich aus der Kapelle hinauswerfen. Stattdessen schritt er Hand in Hand mit seiner Jugendliebe zum Altar. Ich ging zurück hinein und brach am Rand des Mittelgangs zusammen. Der Brautstrauß glitt mir aus den Händen, die Blütenblätter verteilten sich überall. Doch sein Blick streifte mich nicht einmal für eine halbe Sekunde. „Selenas Kind braucht einen Vater. Sobald das erledigt ist, heirate ich dich.“ Alle dachten, ich sei eine verblendete Närrin und würde bereitwillig noch einen Monat warten. Schließlich hatte ich bereits sieben Jahre auf ihn gewartet. Doch in dieser Nacht tat ich etwas, das niemand erwartet hatte. Ich stimmte der arrangierten Ehe zu, die meine Eltern vorgeschlagen hatten, und verließ das Land. Drei Jahre später kehrte ich zurück, um meine Eltern zu besuchen. Mein Ehemann William Fields war CEO eines internationalen Konzerns. Als ein unerwartetes, wichtiges Meeting anstand, bat er mich, schon mal zur Firmenniederlassung in meiner Heimat vorauszufliegen. Dort würden sich seine Untergebenen um mich kümmern. Zu meiner Überraschung war einer dieser Untergebenen Hayden – der Mann, den ich seit drei Jahren nicht mehr gesehen hatte. Sein Blick wanderte sofort zu dem funkelnden Diamanten an meinem Ringfinger. „Ist das eine Fälschung von diesem rosa Diamanten, den Herr Fields für fünf Millionen Euro für seine Frau gekauft hat? Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass du nach all den Jahren so eitel geworden bist.“ „Du hast schon genug Drama gemacht. Komm nach Hause. Selenas Sohn geht jetzt zur Schule, also ist es der perfekte Zeitpunkt, dass du dich um sein Mittagessen kümmerst.“ Ich sagte kein Wort und strich nur mit den Fingerspitzen über den Ring. Er hatte keine Ahnung, dass dies der günstigste aller Edelsteine war, die William mir je geschenkt hatte.

After being reborn, the first thing I did was switch my newborn daughter. In my previous life, soon after she was born, a blood test showed her type was AB. But mine was B, and my husband's was O—there was absolutely no way we could have an AB-type child. My husband flew into a rage and demanded a paternity test on the spot. To everyone's shock, the results proved she was biologically related to me, but not to him. He slapped me hard across the face, his voice trembling with disappointment. "I've always treated you well. I only ever loved you—and this is how you repay me?" My mother-in-law wailed and cursed me for cheating, accusing me of bearing another man's child to steal their family fortune. I was completely stunned. I knew better than anyone who the father of my child was—how could she possibly not be my husband's? In no time, everyone turned against me. They called me a cheater, a tramp. My husband divorced me and went online to play the victim, stirring up a storm of hate and harassment that never seemed to end. With nowhere to go and no one left to believe me, I took my baby in my arms and jumped from a building. Even in death, I couldn't make sense of it all. And when I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my daughter was born.

Setelah diselingkuhi di pesta pertunangannya, Milla berbalik untuk melawan dan mempermalukan tunangannya. Tak disangka, bos besar yang hendak membalas dendam datang menghampirinya .... Yang lebih mengejutkan lagi, Milla bahkan pernah tidur dengan pria itu?! Milla awalnya mengira hidupnya setelah ini hanya akan diisi dengan perjuangan melawan musuh dan bangkit dari keterpurukan, tapi siapa sangka dia malah hidup seperti tokoh utama dalam cerita cinta yang penuh kasih sayang. "Chris, orang-orang bilang kamu itu cacat. Kamu yakin, orang yang aku tiduri malam itu kamu?" "Kalau kamu nggak percaya, aku bisa bantu kamu mengingatnya lagi sekarang." "Chris, apa kamu lupa dengan rencana balas dendammu?" "Mana mungkin lupa? Aku menjalankannya setiap malam dengan tindakan nyata!"

My secretary replaced me on my wedding day, walking down the aisle in a white wedding gown. The man I had loved for ten years threw the bridesmaid dress in my face and ordered me to wear it instead. "She is the bride now. You'll be next," he said coldly. My grandmother was so furious that she fell ill on the spot. Meanwhile, he and the secretary smiled brightly as they completed the wedding ceremony. After the grand wedding, the secretary posted photos of herself in her wedding gown on social media. The comments were overwhelmingly congratulatory. [Today is such a beautiful day, I finally got what I wanted. I hope those who try to ruin someone else's relationship will wake up soon.] She wrote. Chester Morrison replied to her post: [It is a great day. Don't ruin your good mood by some trash.] When I returned home, holding my grandmother's photo, who had passed away, I found them tangled together on the bedspread my grandmother had lovingly sewn for me, the one with a pair of Swan that symbolizes eternal love.

Three days after his first love Mandy's death, my husband locked me in a steel cage and sank me into the ocean. "You vicious woman," he spat. "Stay here and repent to Mandy!" He didn't know I carried his child. I thrust the pregnancy confirmation toward him, but he walked away without a backward glance. Yet when he later saw my corpse—bloated and decomposing in the seawater—he went insane.

There's about half a month to our wedding when Daniel Bradshaw and I get into a horrible fight. The reason? He wants to have a child with his mentor's daughter. "We're only going to do IVF—it's not like we're doing anything else! My mentor is gravely ill now, and his only wish is to see Phoebe have someone she can rely on!" Daniel sounds indifferent, but my blood runs cold. "It's half a month to our wedding, yet you're going to have a child with another woman. Don't you find that ridiculous?" I watch as he storms off and slams the door shut behind him. Then, I update my social media. "I'm getting married in half a month, but I need a new groom. Is anyone up for it?"

The day I went into labor with the twins, I bribed the family doctor to shoot me up with every heavy-duty suppressant he could get his hands on. Anything to stall the birth. Why? Because in my last life, Vincent—my husband, the Don—claimed to have a low sperm count. To guarantee an heir, he lined up ten mistresses and told the whole house: whoever popped out a son first, her kid would be the next Corleone Don. He promised if I delivered first, he'd ditch the others. Said our baby would inherit the throne. I bought every word. When I found out I was carrying twins, I couldn't stop shaking—I thought I'd won. But after I gave birth, he tossed me and the babies into the freezing wine cellar and locked the place down. "Lucy came from nothing. I just wanted to give her kid a name. You started rumors, pushed her into despair, and now she's dead—her and the baby. You're vile. Not fit to be the Don's wife. Think about what you've done. I'll open the door in three days." Then he had the butler seal it shut. What he didn't know? That night, the cellar caught fire. Me and my babies? Burned alive. When I opened my eyes again, I was back—right before labor. This time, I'm not staying. Soon as I deliver and get back on my feet, I'm taking my kids and disappearing for good.

"Miss Jackson, are you certain you want to undergo hypnosis? You should know that once the hypnosis begins, it cannot be reversed. Your body will be controlled by an alternate personality, and you will fall into a sleep from which you will never wake up again," the doctor asked in a grave tone from the other end of the phone. "Yes, I'm certain," Nina Jackson replied calmly.

I'm reincarnated a week before the college entrance exam. Despite being the soon-to-be top scorer, I stab my eye with a syringe. In my past life, Marianne Quentin, my boyfriend Lance Russell's childhood friend, reported me for cheating off her during the final mock exam. The teacher compared our papers and found that my essay was identical to hers. He harshly criticized me and warned me not to repeat my mistake. However, Marianne reported me for copying her answers again during the math exam. Once again, my answers were found to be identical to hers. The teacher scolded me for being incorrigible and sent me home to reflect on my actions. I couldn't understand what had happened. Clearly, I'd never cheated, but my answers were nearly identical to Marianne's, whether in writing and language or in math. As the SAT exam loomed over me, I could only suppress my doubts as I stepped into the exam hall. I finished the writing paper and thought I was safe. However, Marianne stepped out and accused me of cheating again. I tried to defend myself, yet the answers on my paper were identical to hers. In the end, I was disqualified, kicked out of the exam hall, and banned from taking any exams in the next two years—just because I "cheated". I succumbed to despair and leaped from the rooftop. When I open my eyes again, I'm back to one week before the SAT.

Mi amiga, Sofía Santos, la misma que siempre juró que jamás se casaría, me acompañó a la clínica el día de mi inseminación artificial. Pero justo cuando estaba por elegir la muestra de esperma... ¡me la robó! En ese instante lo entendí: ella también había vuelto a vivir. En mi vida anterior, yo solo quería tener un hijo mestizo, así que decidí hacerlo por mi cuenta. Recuerdo que Sofía se burlaba de mí, diciéndome que era una tonta por querer tener un hijo de un desconocido. Lo que nadie imaginó fue lo que vino después: dos semanas más tarde terminé en la corte real. Resultó que el donante que había elegido era, nada menos, que un príncipe extranjero. No solo quiso casarse conmigo, sino que juró que nuestro hijo heredaría el trono. De repente, mi hijo y yo nos convertimos en figuras importantes de la familia real. Las joyas que me regalaban pesaban tanto que apenas podía sostenerme de pie. Mientras tanto, Sofía, tan obsesionada con sus ideas de liberación y ese afán de ir siempre contra todo, terminó metiéndose con la gente equivocada. La despidieron de su trabajo y quedó vetada de la industria. Cuando se enteró del bautizo de mi hijo, viajó desesperada para buscarme. Pero en cuanto la recibí, hizo lo impensable: empujó a mi hijo al suelo, matándolo al instante, y luego me arrojó ácido. —¿Por qué a ti te va tan bien? —gritaba—. ¡Eres una maldita desgraciada, no lo mereces! Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, estaba otra vez en el mismo día... el día en que Sofía me acompañó a la clínica.
