I was reborn.

In my previous life, I had an extremely miserable life.

I was originally a single mother, working hard to establish a start-up while raising Isabel.

When my company was doing better and better, I fell in love with my subordinate, Kellan.

Kellan was a single father. I admired his abilities. I could empathize with the hardships he had gone through while raising Mose alone. We got along very well with each other.

Soon, we decided to get married. After marriage, he urged me to hand over the company to him, advising me to stay at home to take care of the household and raise children.

Of course, he was asking me to educate Mose, Mose Reid.

Mose was very naughty. I put in a lot of effort to discipline him.

He hated me because of my strictness. Besides using various means to harm me, he spread rumors everywhere that I abused him.

Kellan favored him a lot, which emboldened him.

And Isabel, who had been bullied by him for a long time, couldn't bear it. She jumped off the building to commit suicide.

I, who couldn't bear the blow, thus fell ill.

I thought Kellan would consider the affection between us and actively treat my illness. Unexpectedly, the father and son let me suffer from pain on the sickbed to embezzle my property. Finally, I passed away.

Recalling the pain I suffered in the previous life because of Isabel's death and that suffering on the sickbed, I couldn't help but feel sad.

The reason why I was hospitalized now was that I had met Mose formally for the first time yesterday. He pretended to be obedient and served me a dish that he specially cooked. He deliberately added a drug to it after doing research online.

I smiled and excitedly grabbed his hand.

"Kid, intentionally poisoning others is a serious crime!"

Mose took two steps back in fright with a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.

But he regained his composure soon.

"Mom, poisoning? I don't understand what you're saying."

"Give me your phone!"

I showed a fierce look and reached out my hand in front of him.

He hesitated for a moment. In the end, out of fear, he reluctantly took out his phone and handed it to me.

I clicked open a shopping app. Then, I found the transaction records for his buying the drug that caused my hallucinations as well as his chat records asking customer service how to poison someone. Then, I quickly took out my phone, took a photo, and handed it back to him.

...

Looking flustered, he stubbornly said, "Mom, this is not evidence. I'm only 8 years old. Even if I am intentionally poisoning you, I won't be arrested."

I smiled and picked up my phone to operate it.

A few minutes later, I showed him the post I had updated on Twitter.

The post read, [How to deal with a stepson who wants to poison me on the first encounter? Don't ask me as I am hospitalized now.]

The post was attached with pictures showing me lying pale on the bed, his online shopping orders, and chat records.

"You may not be convicted based on your age, but online bullying happens to anyone regardless of the age, my dear son!"

He couldn't stand anymore as he sat down on the ground.

The popularity of my post on Twitter was even greater than I expected. It quickly topped the trending list.

I asked Mose to sit by the bed and read the comments that scolded him one by one.

[I've seen vicious kids, but I've never seen someone so vicious that he wants to kill someone on the first meeting!]

[He is only 8 years old. What kind of things will this person do when he grows up? I suggest arresting him early and educating him!]

[If I were his stepmother, I would beat him to death!]

[This kind of malicious person should be exposed by everyone. Then, they should be beaten every time they are seen!]

Mose looked more and more sullen, while I became more and more excited as I read the comments.

The all-knowing netizens revealed our identities. Many of them stated that they would report Mose immediately if anything happened to me in the future.

As I finished reading the posts, I patted Mose's shoulder happily.

"Son, Mom advises you to stay home more often in the future. Look at this photo! Your face is so clearly displayed in it!"

I was happily talking. Suddenly, the door of the ward was pushed open.

Kellan walked in with Isabel angrily.

Seeing that he was here with hostility, I immediately pretended to be asleep.

Kellan walked to my bedside as he was about to get angry. Seeing my pale face, he had to suppress his anger and handed me his phone.

"Amirah Sue, what's going on?"

I pretended to be weak and sat up, exerting great effort to look at his phone.

...

Then I said with difficulty, "Kellan, I don't know how to ease the relationship between me and Mose, so I wanted to seek help from netizens. I didn't expect things to escalate so much. Cough, cough, cough. I... I'll delete the post immediately."

As I said that, I pretended to take out my phone and started operating it.

Seeing Kellan coming, Mose thought someone was backing him up, so he hid behind Kellan and angrily pointed at me.

"Dad, this woman is pretending! She was energetic just now. She wants to kill me."

Kellan, who had calmed down, immediately looked fierce upon hearing Mose's words.

...

He turned around and slapped Mose's face, saying fiercely, "Son, do you have any shame? Is this how I taught you? How dare you poison your mother? Aren't you afraid of poisoning me to death too?"

Mose covered his face and stood still for a while before coming back to his senses.

Smiling flatteringly, he said, "Dad, don't you usually dislike eating mushrooms? I..."

Before he finished speaking, there was another crisp slap, accompanied by the sound of Kellan's gnashing teeth.

"It seems that Amirah hasn't wronged you. It was indeed you who had intentionally poisoned her!"

I lay on the bed, leisurely watching this father and son. Gloating in my heart, I cursed myself.

I wondered how I had been so blind before as to all for a man like Kellan so much.

"Mose poisoned me. Unexpectedly, his first reaction was what if he was poisoned to death and implicated?"

Thinking of this, I wanted to slap myself.

Unfortunately, the time of my rebirth was too late. Now Kellan and I had registered our marriage. If we got divorced now, he would get half of my property.

"I can't let this pair of ungrateful persons take advantage of all my hard work over the years for nothing."
