Reborn wife novel (Olivia and Bruce)

Chapter 1

A spine-tingling thunder rumbled overhead. It was a rainy month in June. Olivia's body was covered in blood. The cruel woman stepped on her back. "You never learned to let go of your pride and lower your head, Olivia,"

she said, "Alright, then, I'll break your bones one by one!"

She gestured with her head, and the two men behind her stepped forward. Poor Olivia! She had been tortured so much for too long she was unrecognizable, but at that point, she knew this would be her last stand. Even so, she stubbornly raised her head and stared directly at the woman. Her bright eyes were the only distinguishable feature on her bloody face. With lightning flashing across the sky, the scene was exceptionally menacing. "Why are you still standing there?"

the woman demanded. "Throw her in! I want to see how the dead can go against me in the future!"

The two men nodded their heads. They kicked Olivia into the swamp as if she were nothing more than an insignificant, tattered sack, She knew she was going to die today. It was because of her own foolishness; she could blame no one but herself. However, she refused to go down without a fight. She anxiously flapped around, struggling to keep to the surface. As she drifted in and out of consciousness, she saw her life flashback before her eyes. Once, she had been the daughter of the noble Clements Clan, doted on by everyone. But then she got blinded by love; she cut ties with her family for her fiancé, whom she had been in love with for five years. That completely destroyed the family; her father was angered to the point of being hospitalized. She was released from prison five years later. But the only thing Leonard said to her then was, "You don't deserve me."

Recalling her foolishness, Olivia smiled and picked up the phone. Leonard's cold and annoyed voice came from the other end of the phone. "Olivia, can you stop running off?"

he demanded. "If it weren't for your father, I wouldn't have called you. Stop dreaming. I'm never going to like you in this lifetime!"

Those were the exact same words as what had happened in her previous life. She imagined he had a disgusted look on his face at that moment. Olivia rubbed her chin. She wondered what she had told him in her previous life. "I can change myself for you, Leonard,"

she had said. There was desperation in her voice. "Whatever you want from me, I can provide it. Please accept me. I really can't live without you..."

She clicked her tongue. Then, she smiled, getting ready for what she was about to say to him this time, "Go away!"
