Chapter 4 Return Ter to Me
- "Sweetheart, whatever you desire, no one can steal from you. If anyone tries, I'll make sure you get it back!"
- Rebecca pulled her close, feeling a pang of sorrow.
- Her beloved daughter had endured so much over the past two decades.
- She vowed to ensure that no more troubles would come her way.
- "Mom, Dad, you've been so kind to me."
- Elaine's heart swelled with warmth.
- In this world, her parents were the ones who treated her best.
- Sadly, in her previous life, she had feelings for Terry.
- She dreamt constantly of marrying him.
- As soon as she came back to the Currans, she made it clear she wouldn't marry anyone except Terry.
- Now, however, she unexpectedly wanted to cancel the marriage.
- They must be struggling to accept it.
- But she wasn't rushing.
- Regardless, she would never marry that awful Terry.
- Elaine was touched as she embraced her parents.
- "Silly girl, if we aren't kind to you, who else would we be?"
- "Elaine, even if you wanted the stars, I would find a way to get them for you," Leon added.
- Alora watched from upstairs as the heartwarming family scene unfolded below, her grip on the railing tightening a bit.
- The love and care of her parents were all hers.
- She was the cherished little princess they had adored for two decades.
- But now, Elaine had taken her place.
- ...
- Elaine talked with her parents for a long time, and she finally felt the genuine joy of being rebirth.
- Her parents had their own tasks to handle.
- She returned to her room, only to find Alora waiting at the door.
- Alora wore a light-colored knee-length skirt, showcasing her slender and graceful figure.
- Her appearance perfectly complemented her style.
- Her small, delicate face, no bigger than a palm, featured dainty, pretty features, and her slight frown made her seem almost sorrowful.
- Especially with the teardrop mole beneath her eye, she looked particularly vulnerable.
- She was well-known in the entertainment industry as a charming little fairy and a rich beauty.
- Unfortunately, her appearance was the result of cosmetic surgery.
- Even the teardrop mole beneath her eye was artificially placed.
- She had spent millions, leaving no sign of her cosmetic surgery.
- "Is there something you need?"
- Elaine noticed her blocking the door and frowned slightly.
- "Yes."
- Alora's voice was soft as she gazed at her face, which was even more flawless than Rebecca's.
- A surge of intense jealousy filled Alora.
- As the youngest and most favored daughter of the Currans, she had everything.
- The only thing she was dissatisfied with was her own face.
- She often lamented how unfair life was.
- Why were all seven of her brothers handsome while she appeared so plain?
- When she was around 12 or 13, she began undergoing cosmetic surgery.
- Despite Rebecca and Leon's objections, they couldn't withstand her tantrums.
- After seven or eight years, she finally achieved a face she was entirely pleased with.
- Yet, standing before Elaine, she felt a sudden wave of insecurity.
- "Speak!" Elaine demanded.
- She was impatient with Alora.
- Alora took a step closer, her pretty face displaying a mournful look.
- "Elaine, could I ask you for a favor?"
- Wasn't this woman trying to use a retreating stance to gain an advantage?
- If so, I would make it hard for her to back out.
- Elaine remained silent.
- She raised an eyebrow slightly, waiting for Alora to continue.
- "Elaine, could you please return Ter to me?"
- Just moments ago, she was adamant about canceling the marriage.
- Now, there should be no reason to refuse, right?
- Elaine stayed quiet.
- Ter?
- That title sounded so creepy.
- "I've known since I was young that I would marry him when I grew up. So, I love him very much. I really can't lose him."
- Alora looked pitiful.
- It seemed that Elaine was the third party who ended her relationship with Terry.
- "Elaine, if you agree to return Ter to me, I will offer you whatever you want."
- "Whatever I want?"
- Elaine gave a mysterious smile.
