As she does his whole body shifts, fading from grey to brown to a brilliant golden light and then disappearing into the air. I sniff hard when he’s gone, leaning all my weight against Anton, who holds me close. “Is that it? Is it done?” “Yes,” Life says, turning her eyes to me, folding her hands in front of her. “His mother will discover soon that she is with child.” “And what will happen after that?” I ask, sniffing again and wiping my cheeks. The Goddess shrugs. “I don’t know. It is not for me to see the future.” “Okay, well you’re not reincarnating this one,” I say, reaching out an arm and crossing it in front of Anton, frowning ferociously at the Goddess of Life.

Matilda Sutton, my wife, and I are on our tenth wedding anniversary trip when the plane suddenly crashes. I hand her the last remaining parachute, only for her to scoff and ask, "What are you up to this time, Tyler?" I feel a sudden ache in my chest, knowing that Matilda has never loved me in our ten years of marriage. She has also seen me play the hero enough times that it doesn't even register anymore. But this time, it's a genuine matter of life and death. I push her out of the door right as flames engulf the cabin. "If there's a next life, I'll leave you alone, Matilda." Consciousness returns. I find that I've returned to the exact moment I'm about to

he said slowly, “you get a chance to find your lifeline key.” “And that does… what exactly?” “It’s supposed to send you back to the real world,” he said. “A fresh start. New life. New version of you. Better version.” “You don’t sound too sure.” Nova shrugged. “Nobody’s ever made it out. So that last part is just the rumor mill talking.” I stared at my tray. “So we’re fighting for something that might not even be real.” “Welcome to Erevos,” Nova said. “Where hope is the biggest scam of all.”

He most enjoyed the feeling of controlling me, after all. "Elijah, did you know? Five years ago... I was pregnant with your baby," I said calmly. "You're lying again." I laughed bitterly and spoke in a gentle tone I hadn't used in ages. "I knew you'd say that, so I prepared everything. I hope that after I die, you'll receive those things and still be able to live happily ever after with Abigail." At that moment, the system's voice rang in my head. "Fran, midnight has arrived. You just need to die in this world, and you can go back."

After that, she stepped closer and said, "I can marry you, but only if you agree that once we're married, we live our own separate lives and don't get in each other's way. Otherwise, I'm not marrying you!" I stared at her coldly. "The one I'm marrying is Michelle Cooper." "Michelle? She can't have kids, and she looks like she's about to collapse. You seriously want to marry her?" Kara covered her mouth and let out a soft laugh. "Even if you marry Michelle, you're not gonna be satisfied. She's so weak that you'll end up sneaking around with someone else sooner or later." Right then, Oscar rushed to Kara's side, his lips shaking.

Trying his best to hold back his tears, George Orsen silently left the ICU… Rachel took another deep breath. “I never believed in supernatural stuff, and I never believed in reincarnation. However, right now… I hope those things really do exist because I’ll have another lifetime… “If there’s another lifetime, I’ll definitely look for you and spend the rest of that life with you, the life that we didn’t get to live in this lifetime.” Rachel couldn’t stop crying. Her eyes were swollen, and it caused her pain. However, the pain only amounted to a tiny fraction of the pain she felt in her heart.

“We don’t know where we are going to end up soon. I will never finish my university degree in this life because I’m dead and I will be part of a new life soon. I loved it so much.” “Atlas may use your current self as inspiration for our new life,” Nocturne pointed out. “He likes you a lot so he might do that for you.” “Well he does love me a lot,” Leo acknowledged. “What do you think you will be in the next life? From what you’ve told me, you are normally in a higher position than me.” “That just meant I had a higher fall from grace,” Nocturne replied. “I fancy being a sexy CEO this time. You can be my male secretary with glasses. We can have sex on my desk.”

he took my head on his shoulder and I leaned closer to my twin. “There are things that take long before it goes away, you know that,” “And for each one that went away has at least something for you. those scars will forever remind you of the battles you’ve won,” he said slowly but his eyes never left the ocean. “You have the time of yours. Take it slow Asmara.” Afterlives are something that some people hold in their hearts a glimpse of hope that they keep with them. They believe that in another life their loved ones will find their way back and happily ever after will follow. I hope those were true. Perhaps it was love that made people believe in such.

… Later on, my best friend told me how Clara aged at lightning speed and ultimately had to rely on expensive medical equipment to stay alive. Mirabelle, on the other hand, insisted on having Marcus' baby despite the scandal. However, because she was a woman of advanced maternal age who never went for prenatal checkups, her child was born with Down syndrome.

Strip away the family fortune and reputation, and you've got absolutely nothing. Sebastian's mother was imprisoned because of what happened to Mom, and he was banned from joining Hamilton Corporation. Even so, he never lacked food, clothing, or luxuries. The whole living in the "housekeepers' quarters" story was just his own sob story. His actual room was only slightly smaller than mine. In my previous life, he lived quite lavishly after he went abroad with no one to supervise him. I was curious to see what would happen to him in this lifetime.
