Chapter 1
My husband's beloved woman went blind, and he asked me to donate my corneas to her.
"Chloe lost her sight in order to save my mother! Can you donate your corneas to her now? I promise I'll find suitable corneas in the future!"
My husband knelt down, tears in his eyes, pleading with me. My mother-in-law kept assuring me that I wouldn’t be blind for long.
I believed their nonsense and donated my corneas. Soon after, my husband openly got together with her.
My mother-in-law urged me to divorce my husband, saying, "How can a blind person be my daughter-in-law?"
My husband's heart was all on his lover. He pushed me away coldly.
"After the divorce, I'll make sure you have everything you need, so just leave me alone!"
Though I was reluctant, I rushed out of the hospital to find him, but my blindness made it impossible to see, and I ended up in a car accident.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself reborn to the day my husband asked me to donate my corneas to his lover.
——
My husband, Evan Scott, knelt in front of me with red eyes, his voice hoarse, begging me.
"Isabella, please, help her, okay? Chloe lost her sight to save my mother. We owe her, and only when you donate your cornea to her can we repay the debt!"
He held my hand tightly. "But don’t worry, Isabella, I won’t make you wait too long. I’ll find a suitable cornea to replace yours!"
I raised my eyes to adjust to the bright light and turned to look at Evan, who was kneeling on the ground with a humble expression. It was then that I realized I had been reborn.
In my previous life, I foolishly believed Evan's lies and donated my cornea.
But to my shock, after I lost my sight, Evan openly stayed with his ideal partner, Chloe.
He brought her to our home, let her wear my pajamas, and kissed her without any hesitation right in front of me.
And I could only foolishly ask, "Honey, how long do I have to wait for a suitable cornea?"
Evan didn’t respond, but nearby, Chloe let out a low sneer. "What a fool! You actually believed it!"
"Corneas are so precious, Evan was just deceiving you. Yet you still foolishly cling to the hope of seeing the light again!"
At that moment, I realized that I had been deceived.
But it was too late.
I screamed at Evan, and he initially perfunctorily dealt with it.
Later, he lost all patience, so he proposed a divorce straightforwardly.
"Isabella Flores. After the divorce, I'll make sure you have everything you need, so just leave me alone!"
His voice was cold, with a hint of disgust as he pushed me away.
At that moment, I finally understood.
It turned out that he had always been lying to me.
Now reborn, the memories of the past slowly fade and gather before me, with Evan kneeling on the ground, a pleading look on his face.
Noticing my silence, he assumed I was still hesitating.
Then, reaching behind him, he pulled out a bouquet of vibrant roses.
"Isabella, our third wedding anniversary is in two weeks. I promise you, I'll find a suitable cornea for you by then, okay?"
He looked so serious as if he were guaranteeing it with his own life.
After three years of marriage, I was all too familiar with his tricks.
He knows that I had a soft spot for him and that I’ve always loved him deeply.
He’s aware that if he plays the right emotional cards, I might foolishly give in.
But the old Isabella is dead.
I no longer love him.
I smiled faintly, snatched the rose from his hand, and threw it to the ground, shattering it.
"Evan, my body belongs to me and my parents. If you want me to donate my corneas to someone else, you need my mom's consent."
I paused, my voice firm. "Otherwise, forget it!"
Evan's face changed instantly.
He knew it was impossible.
My mom passed away three years ago.
Chapter 2
Evan wanted to say more, but I was too impatient to listen.
I got up, grabbed my bag, slammed the door, and walked out.
"Isabella!" Evan called out desperately as he dashed after me.
He blocked my path, fell to the ground in front of me, and knelt down once again.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
He was so manipulative.
In my past life, I must have been blind to fall for someone like him!
With tears in his eyes, Evan pleaded, "Isabella, I'm really desperate. You're my only relative, the only one who can help me.
"If it wasn't for Chloe pushing my mom that day, she might not have made it. She has done so much for our family, so you will definitely help me, right?"
I couldn't help sneering after hearing that.
I thought, 'She saved your mom, not mine. Why should I be morally pressured into donating my cornea to her? Why don't you just go donate it yourself?'
Evan kept on nagging there, and I suddenly got angry.
"Chloe saved your mother. If you feel that you can't repay the favor, then let your mother donate her corneas! It's none of my business!"
It was such a straightforward issue, yet he had to drag me into it
When finished speaking, Evan looked at me in disbelief, as if I was a stranger.
Perhaps he didn’t expect that I, who had always been obedient and compliant, would so openly expose his dirty and ugly thoughts.
"Isabella! How could you behave like this? My mother is your mother-in-law. How can you say such cruel things?"
I sneered.
I'd never seen anyone more shameless than him.
All I could think about was dividing the property and getting a quick divorce!
Just then, a figure rushed toward me in a frenzy.
She raised his hand and slapped me! "I'll kill you, you ungrateful girl! My son is a man! how dare you make him kneel to you?"
It turned out to be my unreasonable, crazy mother-in-law, Melanie.
I heard that just a few days ago, she wanted to go shopping but refused to let me tag along. She specifically called Chloe, who’s beloved by Evan, and almost got into a car accident!
Now all this chaos is because of her, and she even has the nerve to hit me.
I sneered and slapped Evan even harder without hesitation.
"Didn’t you hear? Mom didn’t want you to kneel. Why are you doing it? Are you trying to let me take the blame?"
After saying that, I slapped them again, leaving both of them in shock.
I sneered, “If you dare to hit me, I’ll make sure your son gets double!”
I refuse to stay in this crazy family for another day!
Chapter 3
Melanie, angrily blocked my way, "Don't go!"
'Why can't I leave?'
I was not afraid at all as I coolly looked at the crazed old woman in front of me. In my previous life, all I wanted was to build a good life with Evan.
For three years of marriage, I treated my mother-in-law like my own mother, serving her every day.
Even though she caused trouble daily, I took care of her meticulously, even fetching water for her foot bath.
But in my previous life, after Chloe went blind, she and Evan came to me together, pleading for me to donate my corneas.
I hesitated and ultimately refused.
My mother-in-law climbed up onto the rooftop in one breath and threatened to jump off to scare me.
She claimed she would use her life to guarantee that I wouldn’t be blind for long and that Evan would find suitable corneas for me.
But after I donated my corneas, she stopped pretending and revealed her true colors. "Chloe is the daughter-in-law I’m most satisfied with; she’s the perfect match for my son!
"I've wanted to kick that blind woman out of the house a long time ago. She is not worthy of being my daughter-in-law."
At that time, I realized how cruel humans could be.
So now, seeing my mother-in-law pretending to be pitiful and begging me to donate my cornea to Chloe, I feel extremely ridiculous.
"Melanie, my eyes are very important to me. I need to work. But you are old, so I guess yours won't be much of use. Why don't you donate yours?"
Hearing my words, my mother-in-law was pissed off.
Evan blamed me for speaking rudely, but I didn't care.
Anyway, I have wanted a divorce for a long time. The two of them made me disgusted. I regretted having wasted three precious years.
As expected, before I even left the neighborhood, my mother-in-law climbed onto the rooftop and threatened me with a megaphone.
"Isabella, you ungrateful things! If you dare to leave today, I will jump from here!"
Many people pointed fingers at me, but I just smirked and walked away, ignoring whatever they said behind me.
'If you wish to die, jump!' I thought.
