Back in the bedroom, Isabella took out the precious lock, letting it shimmer and flow in her hand. Yet her eyes
slowly filled with deep sorrow.

She cried uncontrollably: “No, Mom won't let you die, | won't let you go.”
“Mom, don’t be sad. I'll tell you a secret: if you wear this lock, you'll have many sweet dreams.
| dreamed of you and a handsuncle. He loves you so much, Mom.”
“Mom, Daddy loves Auntie more than he loves us. So we don’t need him anymore.
We're taking back our love for him. You can go find that handsuncle.”
Tiny, chubby hands weakly wiped away the tears on her mother’ s face.
At that moment, her sadness overwhelmed her, like a river in flood. She had no energy left to consider her
child’s strange words.
As a result, she hadn’t discovered the secret of the “City of Reincarnation” in time.
“Mom, you must wear the lock around your neck... please, don’t

let it be tricked away by Uncle.”
The child clutched the lock around her neck and pressed it into her mother’s hand. In her final moments, her
diminishing life force radiated a surprising compassion.
It was a compassion that didn’t fit a child's age.
She clung tightly to her daughter, but the little one’s breath. slipped away like sand slipping through her fingers-

The cry of agony echoed. Was it a dream or reality? Isabella couldn't tell anymore.

Nathan assumed she had suffered sinjustice outside, and his tone was dismissive: “Hmph, Isabella, | warned
you. You're a woman with neither brains nor wealth, yet you still wanted to do business with Theodore. What, did
he bully you?”
He smirked and dragged over a chair to sit in front of her, a cruel glint in his eyes. “Go ahead, tellhow he

“Nathan, | hate you. | hate you.”
“Get out of my way. | never want to see you again.”
Nathan frowned. “What the hell is wrong with you? | didn’t provoke you. If you're so angry, go find the person
who bullied you.”
“Isabella, don’t think that just because I’m your husband, | should pay for your foolish mistakes.”

Isabella, as though completely mad, tore at him. “Divorce me, Nathan! | want a divorce!”
Nathan shoved her away, and Isabella collapsed weakly onto the floor.
Nathan, disgusted, brushed off the spots she had touched.
