Chapter 2
When I divorced Elliott, I was already three months pregnant.
He didn’t know about this matter.
Even if he found out, he would still doubt that the child in my belly was someone else’s seed.
We ended up divorcing because he suspected me of having an affair.
It is all thanks to his lover that our relationship was instigated with just a few words.
But since we have already divorced and haven’t been in contact for five years, why is he suddenly
coming to find me now?
looked confusedly into the past.
Of course, Elliott couldn’t feel my gaze.
He faced Alisha, his expression stiff.
A series of emotions, including shock, doubt, and anger, flashed through the mind, and finally, they snapped back to reality.
He shouted loudly, “Don’t try to deceive me! Get Eileen out quickly!”
Alisha was scared and started crying, but she didn’t dare to make a sound. She pouted her mouth, and tears rolled down her cheeks in big drops.

I floated over to wipe her tears, but time and time again, I missed her.
“Alisha, don’t be afraid, Mom is here.”
She couldn’t hear my voice either, crying with great grievance yet being extremely cautious.
It was not until Amelie ran over and hugged her that she sobbed and made a sound, saying, “Auntse I didn’t lie, Mom really died, why doesn’t this man believe me?”
Amelie opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything. She cried even harder than Alisha.
Elliott frowned and stared at the two of them for a while, probably annoyed by their crying, and then he turned around and walked away.
I was so curious about why Elliott suddenly came to find me, so I followed him all the way back.
He still lived in our old house, and everything inside the house remained unchanged.
Even my photos were still placed on the bedside table.
He sat on the ground and muttered to my photo, “Why are you so heartless? You disappeared just like that, for a whole five years. You changed your phone number and moved houses. Do you hate
ne that much?”
How could one not hate?
I spent ten years accompanying Elliott to start from scratch.
Thinking that I had finally turned the corner and things would get better, he unexpectedly pushed me into hell.
Before Alisha, we had another child.
Two months later, we had a big fight because he wanted to accompany his crush on her birthday.
He accidentally pushed me, and I fell to the ground, and the child was gone.
At that time, I was alone in the hospital, and he accompanied the moonlight to sing a birthday song and cut the cake. The Moonlight also sent me the photos.
The chilling feeling in that moment, the piercing hatred, I still remember it vividly five years after
my death.
I hated him so much that I never let him know about Alisha’s existence until I died.
Luckily, Alisha looked like me, so when Elliott saw her, he thought that she was the result of me
having a child with someone else.
If he found out that Alisha was his daughter, he would definitely try his best to take Alisha away.
I was feeling fortunate when I heard Elliott’s phone ring.
It was his childhood friend who called, asking about his situation.
Elliott smirked and chuckled self–deprecatingly, “She had already been with someone else, and
even had children.”
My childhood friend was shocked, “How could… Eileen loves you so much. How old is the child?
“She looked about five or six years old.”
His friend, “Did you ask whose child it is? What if it’s yours?”
Elliott T
stunned.
And I was in a panic, tumbling up and down, spinning left and right in the air.
Isn’t it said that birds of a feather flock together and people tend to group together?
Why would Elliott, such a stupid person, have a best friend who reacts so quickly?
I wanted to go back immediately and asked Amelie to take Alisha away right away!

drifted all the way back.
When passing by the hospital, I stopped for a moment.
This is the place where my life came to an end.
Before dying, Amelie asked me if I wanted to give Elliott a call.
She witnessed me and Elliott go from being deeply in love to despising each other.
Because I knew how much I loved Elliott, I didn’t want to leave any regrets.
But I didn’t let her make that phone call, and I warned her never to tell Elliott about my death.
How much I loved in the past, later on, I hated just as much.
I didn’t need him to pity me, and I certainly didn’t want him to know about Alisha’s existence.
Upon hearing his childhood friend’s words, Elliott had already started to doubt that Alisha was his daughter.
I returned to the place where Amelie and Alisha lived and reminded them to quickly pack their things and leave.
I reminded them several times, but they didn’t respond.
It was then that I realized, I had died….
They could not hear my voice.
Amelie comforted Alisha, their faces pressed against each other, creating a heartwarming scene.
Alisha asked Amelie, “Auntie, who was that person just now? Isn’t Eileen my mother’s name? Why did he come to look for my mother?”
“He knew your mother before,” Amelie explained simply.
But I knew that she had definitely cursed Elliott countless times in her heart.
She just didn’t want to say anything unpleasant in front of Alisha and didn’t want to taint her pure
soul.
1 looked at them and suddenly felt very sad.
If I were still alive, Alisha would also be face–to–face with me like this.
She would still call my mother softly and tenderly.
I felt a strong sense of suffocation in my chest, with an overwhelming urge to cry surging all

around.
Wherever it was hit, it hurt.
I squatted down next to Alisha and made a hugging gesture.
It seemed like this; I really hugged her.
Elliott came the next day with his childhood friend, Graham Whitaker, and it was clear that they intended to take Alisha away.
Amelie immediately called her boyfriend and then asked Alisha to go inside and watch TV, telling
her not to come out unless she was called.
Alisha remembered that Elliott had come yesterday and she also remembered that he was very
mean.
So she refused to go inside, afraid that Elliott would harm her aunt.
“Sir…” her voice quivered with a hint of tears.
Despite being very scared, she stood bravely in front of Amelie, “My mother is really not here, she is dead. My auntie and I were not lying. Please don’t hurt my auntie.”
Elliott stared with his eyes wide open, his expression angry and incredulous.
Yeah, in his impression, I was very cautious about my life.
Go to see a doctor for any minor illness or pain.
Unlike his moonlight, I stood downstairs in front of our house for three hours in the pouring rain without taking a step back just to see him.
Later, Elliott rushed down with an umbrella and chatted warmly with the moonlight, completely unaware of me following him downstairs and falling down.
When they got in the car, I was still standing in the rain.
The pouring rain washed away not the dirt on the ground, but the love I had for him in my heart
Back then, I was so foolish, becoming pitiful and pathetic in a rotten love.
If it were now, I would definitely give them a slap, this couple of lovebirds.
