After being tricked by Nolan into going mountain climbing on a vacation,
I was pushed off a cliff by Nolan and died on the spot.
Nolan then took my accidental death insurance payout and lottery winnings,
Paid off his gambling debts and immediately married another woman,
Who, it turned out, was already three months pregnant at the time.
Only then did I realize Nolan had betrayed me long ago.
I discovered I had never truly seen him for who he was, leading to such a tragic end.
Thankfully, heaven granted me another chance, and I was reborn.
————————
When I was reborn, I found myself on the way home after buying a lottery ticket.
The thought of never truly seeing through Nolan in my past life, which ultimately led to him pushing me off a cliff to my death, sent chills down my spine.
It wasn't until I died that I realized Nolan's debt was from gambling.
I still remember Nolan holding me, heartbroken and desperate, saying, "Darling, I've been deceived. Mr. Stone had me sign a lot of documents earlier. I only found out later that Mr. Stone had embezzled company funds and was trying to pin it on me."
At that moment, I anxiously asked him, "Where's Mr. Stone then? We need to find him quickly!"
"Mr. Stone has already fled. We can't contact or locate him now. Darling, what should I do? If this gets discovered, my life is over."
"It's all my fault for being so naive, for trusting others so easily. Look what it's done to me now." Nolan became increasingly self-reproachful as he spoke.
"Darling, maybe we should get a divorce. I'll leave all our current assets to you, that way you won't be implicated."When I heard Nolan's words, I felt a bit confused. But realizing that Nolan was still thinking of me in the end made me feel reassured, convinced I hadn't married the wrong man.
So I quickly comforted him, "Honey, this isn't your fault. I've got some savings from the past couple of years. Let's use that to cover the debt first. If it's not enough, we'll figure out a way to borrow some. Worst case, we can sell the house and car. We'll get through this somehow."
Nolan held me tenderly and said, "Darling, you're so good to me. I promise I'll never let you down, not in this lifetime."
Then I handed over all my savings to Nolan to plug the financial hole.
Little did I know Nolan was such a good actor. He put on this deeply affectionate facade in front of me, when in reality, he had already been plotting to kill me for the accidental death insurance payout.
I stumbled home in a daze, realizing that Nolan's motive for killing me was to scam the accidental death insurance compensation. That meant there must be an accidental death insurance policy somewhere.
I ransacked every cabinet, safe, and corner of our home until I finally discovered the accidental death insurance policy in Nolan's frequently used bag.
Inside were not only my accidental death insurance policy but also his parents', and the beneficiary for all of them was listed as Nolan himself.If I hadn't won the lottery in my previous life, would he have decided to kill me and then planned to kill his parents too? How much gambling debt must he have owed to be so heartless as to not even spare his own flesh and blood?
Nolan has truly become a ruthless monster now, not only wanting to kill me but also thinking of killing his own parents.
Nolan is too terrifying. No, I must get away from him and escape this calamity.
I remember that night in my previous life when I found out I'd won the lottery. I ran to Nolan, bubbling with excitement, and said, "Honey, I have some great news to tell you."
"What great news? Don't tell me I'm going to be a dad?" Nolan asked, his face full of anticipation.
"We've been using protection, how could I be pregnant? I won the lottery, the Powerball jackpot!"
