บท 35: Alternate Body

"MOTHER?!!" Fermin rushed to Arabella's coffin and held her corpse. "Why?! What happened? Why is my mother dead?!"

Tears flowed down Fermin's eyes as he frantically asked why she was a corpse now.

Arabella instantly regretted slitting her throat. If she knew Fermin was still alive, she wouldn't have done that and searched for him instead.

She would have asked - no, begged to be brought to Estrella just so she could see her son again and be with him.

Ferdinand embraced Fermin as he sobbed so much.

Arabella ran to their side. She embraced them both even when they could not see her.

Just seeing their sad mourning faces broke her heart. They wouldn't be this sad if she was nothing to them.

Arabella was loved indeed. And she wished she could love them back and treasure them as they did to her.

AH! She still could, couldn't she? She has her second life which she was currently living in.

Maybe, it wasn't her punishment after all.

Perhaps, it was her chance for change.
