Anna looked as though she were undeserving of the kindness, her face betraying a mixture of surprise and modesty. What? You want to give me your shares? That doesn't right. I only want the love of Mom. Dad, and Luke. What would I do with so many shares?

"You're such a good child. Of course, we want to love you. Take them. Consider it a small compensation from us for the hardships you endured when you were younger."

"It's all in the past, Anna said, shaking her head. "With all of you loving me, I feel like the luckiest person in the world. But Chloe, if she comes back, she will surely be heartbroken."

"What's she got to be sad about? We're giving this to you willingly. It has nothing to do with her. It wasn't her who built the company

"Mom, you've been good to me. Anna said.

Anna leared in close to Mom, and in the corner where no one could see, I caught a glimpse of her faint smile.

It was clear now-the shares were no accident. She had planned this all along.

I didn't understand. She already had Luke's love, and she was adored by the Sanders. The moment she spoke. Mom would give her jewelry worth millions. She had all the wealth she could want.

But why was she still after the shares? First it was Grandma's, and now she had her sights set on something else.

I thought my death would be the end of it, but now. I felt something more.

Anna didn't just want me dead.

She was planning something bigger, something that might involve the Sanders, or even the Boltons.

What are you up to, Anna?

"Tomorrow, I'll have the lawyer handle the paperwork Dad said. "Get some rest, Anna. Once the papers. are ready, just come over to sign them." Thanks, Dad."

"Silly girl, we're family. No need to thank us. Think of it as a dowry we're preparing for you."

Anna passed a bowl to Mom and said, "Mom, the soup is cold now. You can drink it."

Good girl"

I stood there, desperately wanting to stop her.

2. Don't drink it! Please, don't drink it!"

But no one could hear me. I could only watch as Mom drank the soup from the bowl that hid my ashes.

Anna then called to Ethan and Dad, urging them to drink. Both of them declined.

"Go ahead, drink it. She's showing her filial piety. When she's married, you won't be able to drink it again."

True, then we might as well have a little," Dad agreed.

The family sat together, so warm and happy, while I felt like a stranger in the room.

Heartbroken, I left the Sanders, desperate to replace what was left of my body. 1:

My skin had been made into a human-skin Bible, my bones ground into powder. But what about my flesh?

Was it thrown to the dogs? Or perhaps ground up and dumped in the sewers?

When I opened my eyes again, I saw only dark skies and the deafening roar of thunder.

I wasnt indoors, Was I outside? Had I found my burial place

In this moment, a wave of shock and joy swept over me. I quickly looked around, trying to recognize where I was.

It was still a familiar scene, because behind me stood the home Luke and I had shared-the place I called our marriage home..

Wait, this wasn't right. How did I end up here?

Had they really been so bold as to bury me in my marriage home?

This house had taken me years to buy and renovate. I loved gardening. Before I even moved in, I had already planted flowers in both the front and back yards, where the soil was rich and fertile.

A thought suddenly crossed my mind-has my body already turned into fertilizer for the flowers?

A distant rumble of thunder echoed.

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by the deafening roll of thunder.

In that fleeting moment, as time seemed to blur, I noticed something in the front yard.

It had been hard to see clearly in the pitch-black night, but is the lightning illuminated the heavens, I saw it-a massive dark figure.

Had Luke planted a tree there?

The unease grew stronger as I slowly approached the shadow. It was something taller than me, wrapped in a black tarp.

I reached out, intending to pull off the waterproof cover, but I had forgotten-I couldn't touch anything.

I could only watch as the heavy rain poured down, flowing down the edges of the tarp.

What was it? What

cret was hidden inside?

Whatever it was, it had to be related to the parts of my body, or I wouldn't still be here.

I waited for a long time, but nothing changed. Eventually, I returned to Luke's side.

He had just finished showering and was lying on the bed. His phone on the nightstand buzzed continuously, Anna's name flashing on the screen.

It was strange. When I was with him, he would always pick up Anna's calls, no matter when she called. Now, he was completely indifferent.

Beneath his black eyes, a storm seemed to be brewing, as if he was preparing for something bigger.

Maybe he had started to realize what role Anna was really playing.

Perhaps he still clung to the hope that he was wrong, that he wouldn't take off her mask until he had proof.

Finally, Anna stopped calling him. Luke stared at the projection screen, where the classic film Titanic was playing.

The scene showed the ship colliding with an iceberg, ting, and everyone facing death.

I saw the seriousness in Luke's face. Was he thinking about how I must have felt when I fell into the sea? When the male lead jumped into the water, the female lead sat on the only piece of driftwood.

At the sound of a whistle, she looked at him, thinking she was saved, but saw only the frozen figure of the

male lead.

He never reached the other side of the ocean, his life cut short in the cold sea.

The female lead was heartbroken, and tears slowly slid down Luke's face.

He whispered softly, "Chloe."

Suddenly, he grabbed his phone off the nightstand, frantically dialing my number. The cold, robotic voice on the other end of the line was the same as before.

Luke opened my contact profile, but instead of threatening me as he once had, his voice was fragile and helpless.

"Chloe, I was wrong. I know I am wrong now. Please come back. Don't joke with me; I miss you.

"I shouldn't have left you at the wedding. Come back, and we'll live a good-life. I'll never hurt you again. "You wanted to go on a honeymoon to Lery, right? I'll go with you wherever you want, no matter how far. "I know about the baby. I'm really sorry. That day, I left behind billions of dollars in business to come to you. I thought you were joking. I didn't mean to push you away. I'm so sorry."

Luke, curled up in a ball, looked so helpless. I had never seen him like this before.

If I had heard him like this before, no matter how much he hurt me, I would have forgiven him right

away

But now, I could only sit on the bed, listening to the Titanic theme song, staring at the man whose shoulders were shaking, without shedding a single tear "But Luke, it's too late. I will never forgive you."
