Marriage of Another Life

I was reborn on the day my sister, Tilda Wright, and I had to pick our husbands. That was when I realized I could hear people’s thoughts.

I heard Tilda say, [This time, I’m gonna make sure I grab the best husband first.]

Then, just like that, she rushed over and took the sweet guy I had married in my last life, while I ended up with the abusive man who used to beat her every day.

I laughed to myself. Did she really think the guy I married before was some perfect gentleman?

I was reborn on the very day Tilda Wright and I had to choose husbands.

Across the dinner table sat two men, both about the same age. One was Mike Pearson, the older brother who was cold and distant. The other was Phil Pearson, the younger brother, but born out of wedlock. He seemed gentle and easygoing.

[This time, I’m gonna make sure I grab the best husband first.]

A girl's voice echoed in my head.

It was Tilda's voice. I glanced at her, but she hadn't actually spoken. Her eyes were locked on Phil.

[I'm definitely gonna steal you away.]

Her voice rang in my head again.

That was when it hit me. I hadn't just been reborn—I could hear people's thoughts, too. And judging by what she said, Tilda had also been reborn. Otherwise, there was no way she'd be thinking like that.

My father spoke up beside me. "Skye, since Tilda has chosen Phil, you'll marry Mike."

The moment he said that, pride flashed in Tilda's eyes. Inside, she thought, [This time, you can take the beating for me.]

In my past life, Tilda had married Mike.

He was a strong businessman and was always buried in work. I also heard he was cold when it came to matters in bed. Tilda had tried many times to seduce him, but every time, she ended up bruised and thrown out of his room.

Eventually, because she never had children, Mike's mother, Samantha Pearson, declared that she must be sick and kicked her out of the Pearsons' house.

As for me, I married Phil. He didn't have much influence in the Pearsons, but he gave me food, clothes, and comfort. He took me shopping, ate with me, and went on dates with me, spoiling me completely.

Everyone in the Pearsons knew how close we were.

Later, Mike suddenly died from poisoning, and Phil inherited the family business.

My status in the Pearsons skyrocketed overnight.

Tilda was jealous. One day, while I was out shopping, she rammed her car into mine, dragging me with her into death.

"Sure, Dad. I like Mike a lot anyway," I said with a smile, walking over to sit beside Mike.

I had to admit, his presence was overwhelming. The moment
