Chapter 2

In my previous life, when I found out that Ann had a heatstroke, I immediately rushed to the hospital.

But Ann was not saved. I was heartbroken and cursed the heavens for taking my daughter away. But I accidentally saw someone's sarcastic post.

[How can someone let a child sunbathe naked on such a scorching hot day?]

I went to the property arrangement to check the surveillance video and found out that Ann did not suffer from heatstroke when her grandmother took her out to buy vegetables, but was forced to sunbathe her back.

Ann was only four years old, with delicate skin and afraid of heat.

Normal sunbathing would choose a mild time of day, and for beginners, just ten minutes would be enough.

But my mother-in-law not only chose the hottest noon, but also made Ann take off her shirt and sunbathe for an hour. Ann resisted countless times, but was pulled back by her grandmother.

Even worse, when Ann fainted from sunstroke, Pearl gave her 40-degree hot water to drink.

I lost control of my emotions, cried and called the police, saying that my mother-in-law must pay for Ann's life.

But to my surprise, when my husband heard the cause of Ann's death, he showed no intention of blaming his mother. Instead, he pushed me to the ground.

"My mom was taking care of Ann with traditional Chinese medicine. You are ungrateful and even slandered her!"

No one cared when I hit the back of my head on the corner of the table and died from excessive bleeding.

Seeing this, my mother-in-law and husband immediately faked that I couldn't bear the death of my child and jumped into the river to commit suicide.

As a result, they escaped legal sanctions.

With a heart full of unwillingness, I watched them take out all the money from my bank account, and they didn't even spare the car and house under my name before marriage.

What made my soul even more shattered was that my husband had a pregnant mistress outside.

On the same day, my mother-in-law came back to apologize to me. She was instigated by the mistress and said that the mistress was pregnant with a baby boy. If my daughter was still alive, she would have had an abortion.

Seeing them move to another city, getting married to the mistress and giving birth to a son, I felt even more devastated.

My mother was killed by the scumbag while seeking justice for me on a deserted country road.

Fortunately, I was reborn, and there was still a chance to change everything.

I hold Ann tighter, letting the sense of being reborn envelop me even more.

"Mommy, I'm sorry. I won't use the air conditioner anymore." Ann was feeling down and kept apologizing to me.

"Ann, you're not wrong. From now on, we'll use the air conditioner every day. I won't let you be affected by your grandma's mood."
