Chapter 2

On the contrary, when Eugene got into a fight with his classmate for this, Benedict was so embarrassed. He even had the heart to lock Eugene up in the basement to reflect. That time, our son almost died because of claustrophobia.

When Eugene was locked in the clinic and hypnotized by the robot at that time, even though he was so afraid that his teeth were chattering, he still didn't forget to send me a voice message. I still remember his voice message at that time.

Eugene said to me, “Mom, is it true that if I overcome my fear, Dad will love me?”

By that time I forced the door of the clinic to break open. I then saw my son had been scared alive. I shudder to think what kind of hypnotic content could have filled Eugene's face full of fear.

I hugged his cooled body so tight. Then I told him relentlessly, “Even if you fail, Dad still loves you, My Boy.”

But the lie couldn't make Eugene close his eyes and calm down. Instead, when I said I would take him away, he immediately closed his eyes. My mother-in-law instantly burst into tears. She knew that she could no longer keep me.

After Benedict played a trick and turned me into Adelaide, Liliana also angrily rebuked him for his assholery. My mother-in-law even wanted me to leave her son.

However, Benedict was afraid that I would recover my memory and reveal the truth. It made him prefer to marry me. He wanted to ensure that I would always be under his control. I thought Benedict would be the salvation of my life with the identity of Hendrick’s illegitimate daughter.

Unfortunately, I didn't know that my husband was the real culprit who made my life fall into darkness. The day Benedict married me, he only held a family banquet.

My mother-in-law put the heirloom jade bracelet on my hand at that moment. She then said to me, “I know my son who has wronged you. I will let him spend the rest of his life making it up to you! If you regret marrying him in the future, don’t worry, Rebecca, I will help you leave, okay?”

I thought the sorry in her mouth was about Benedict coaxing me to donate my kidney. She also laughed and said that when she knew her son married me, it was the happiest thing in her life.

I really knew that the truth was too cruel. For the whole five years, I had not remembered the slightest. Now that my son was dead, the truth was nakedly presented.

My mother-in-law hugged Eugene tightly. She then spoke with shivering lips, “Rebecca, it was my fault. I was wrong, Rebecca. I thought that Adelaide had stolen your identity and wouldn't show up again after helping her mom take revenge.”

After hearing Liliana’s words, my heart already had been numbed by the pain. At this moment, once again the shock wave turned the situation upside down. Without waiting for me to open my mouth to ask, my mother-in-law took out her cell phone to call her lovely son, Benedict.

It was a shame that what we heard was not something pleasant to hear. From the other end came Adelaide’s coquettish voice and said, “Benedict, please be gentle. I can't bear it.”

The sound of love between a man and a woman made my mother-in-law so angry. It made her curse them.

Benedict’s activity was ruined at this time. He then said impatiently with a hoarse voice, “Mom, can you please stop spoiling our fun? Today is the wedding day of Adelaide and me. If you still want to hold grandchildren, stop it. Please, don’t make a fuss.”

The mother-in-law replied angrily, “Your son, Eugene is dead! You get your ass to the hospital immediately!”

Benedict immediately snorted with laughter, “Mom, you even made up this kind of lie in order to trick me into going back, right? Aren't you afraid that the spell will really come true?”

At that moment I couldn't say anything. I never thought that Benedict couldn’t believe her mom’s words.

Benedict said firmly, “Eugene Mortimer is my son, Mom. I have my own way of tempering and training him. You have to know that Adelaide has returned. I'm going to make up for what should have belonged to her one by one!”

The phone was mercilessly hung up. My mother-in-law covered her face and cried until she couldn't help herself.

Lilian looked at me. She then said, “Rebecca, I really feel sorry for you. All of this is my fault.”

I took a breath for a while. I was really confused at this time.

Liliana continued her words, “I shouldn't have indulged her in stealing your identity. I also shouldn't have allowed my son to treat you as a prisoner in the name of making up.

My mother-in-law was trembling. She then grabbed my hand and told me everything that happened back then. It turned out that Adelaide hated my mother for knowing that my father was cheating on her mother, but he still refused to give up her mother's identity as Mrs. Reverie.

I then knew that after Adelaide learned that the Mortimer Family was interested in marrying me, she deliberately approached Benedict. She even deliberately let me discover the truth and forced my mom and me to leave our house.

My mother and I thought that leaving the scumbag would be a new life. Unfortunately, my mother died in that car accident.
