After Embracing Death, They All Started Loving Me
Bella Sinclair and I were kidnapped at the same time, and Adrian Bennett came running with half a million dollars in ransom to save Bella, of course. My son, whom I carried for ten long months, naturally echoed his dad:
“I want Bella to come with us! Dad, she’ll be scared if she stays here alone!”
The system informed me that my “mission” had failed:
“If your body dies, you’ll return to the original world.”

Fine by me. All I wanted was a way out, to go home. But then my husband and son discovered I truly into begging me to stay:
“I was wrong! Please, please don’t leave us!”

After twelve years spent trying to win over Adrian Bennett, he still didn’t hesitate to choose Bella over me. Adrian only needed a couple of seconds to untie Bella’s ropes, his eyes full of worry. And there beside him, Jonah, just like his father, fussed over Bella’s bruised wrists, blowing
on her red skin.
“Bella, this will make it feel better.”
The three of them stood there, tender and cozy, entirely forgetting that I was still bound in the hands of the kidnapper.
Even the man holding me couldn’t help but sneer.
“That husband of yours is lost in the warmth of another woman’s arms. I bet he’s not coming back for you – should I just call it a day here?”
As I watched Adrian and Jonah walk off with Bella, the system officially deemed my mission a failure. The penalty, a jolt of electric shock,
knocked me out instantly.
Through my foggy consciousness, I felt the kidnapper support my collapsing body.
“All I did was say something harsh, no need to pass out! Oh no, oh no… I better get her to a hospital, don’t want to be in trouble if something really happens to her.”
