Chapter 1 My husband's beloved was in a car accident and desperately needed a liver transplant . The only match turned out to be my mother , The day Knox Whitfield strapped my mother to the operating table , I knelt on the cold hospital floor , sobbing until my forehead bled from hitting the ground , begging him to stop . Instead , he had me locked in solitary confinement . Three days later , the surgery was successful . Knox stood before me in his pristine suit , his eyes cold as winter steel . " The surgery went perfectly . I've arranged for someone to look after your mother . " He adjusted his silver cufflinks with practiced indifference . " I'll be staying at the hospital with Vivian for the next few days . Don't wait up . " I stared at this man who once would have walked through fire for me , my tears finally running dry . As he turned to leave , I couldn't stop myself from asking in a broken whisper , " Knox , you loved me so much once . Why did you suddenly stop ? " His footsteps faltered for just a moment . Without turning back , he said , " We were just an arranged marriage . When did I ever love you ? " The door slammed shut , and I slid down the wall to the floor , tears flooding my cheeks like a dam had burst . Never loved me ? How could he say that ? In my previous life , he had loved me desperately . Yes , I had been reborn . In my last life , the Whitfield and Montgomery families had arranged a marriage , and I had become Knox's wife . Back then , he would have given me the stars if I'd asked - he would never have settled for the moon . A casual mention of some million - dollar jewelry would see it appear on my vanity the next morning . When I was sick , he'd stay awake all night watching over me … But I had despised him . Because the one I loved was my childhood friend , Mason Rivera . After being forced into marriage with Knox , I rejected everything about our union - I refused to share his bed , wouldn't attend galas with him , and even frequented clubs to find male escorts , deliberately humiliating him in public . Eventually , I believed Mason's lies and even ran away with him . But I never realized … Mason had never loved me at all . His only goal in winning my heart was revenge . The Rivera and Whitfield families had been enemies for generations , and he'd recognized Knox's feelings for me early on . So he'd planned to use me as a weapon against him all along . He kidnapped me and used my life to threaten Knox : " Knox Whitfield , send me one of your fingers every day , or I'll kill her . " Without said a word , Knox just cut off one finger each day and mailed it to Mason . On the tenth day , when the final finger - still wearing our wedding ring - arrived bloody and raw , I completely broke down . I couldn't bear to watch Knox destroy himself any longer . I bit through my own tongue and ended it all . After death , my spirit floated in the air , watching as Knox - always so composed and dignified - lost his mind at the sight of my corpse . He came for revenge , breaking every bone in Mason's body with his bare hands . The screams meant nothing to him ; his eyes held only death . In the end , he abandoned his billion - dollar empire , left the entire Whitfield Corporation behind , and carried my body into the flames . As the fire consumed everything , he kissed my lips with religious devotion and whispered , " Celia , if there's a next life … could you love me just once ? " T … Dahintha Como Tragedy - Are We Cursed or Just Stupid 0.0 Chapter 1 The moment the flames took him . I floated there crying until I thought my soul would shatter . Only then did I finally see the depth of his love . When I opened my eyes again , I had been reborn - back to our first year of marriage . I was ecstatic and heartbroken at the same time . This time , I swore I would love Knox properly . So I deleted every trace of Mason from my life , made breakfast for Knox every morning , waited up for him no matter how late he worked , and filled my heart and eyes with only him . BUT HE HAD CHANGED . He was no longer gentle with me , no longer came home every night . He became distant and cold , and worse - he kept a mistress . Now he had even gone so far as to force my mother onto an operating table to save that woman's life . After Knox left , I collapsed on the cold floor , my tears finally spent . Fine . If he didn't love me in this life , then I would let him go . I would set him free completely . I struggled to my feet and dragged my exhausted body to the hospital . When I pushed open the door, Mom was still unconscious , her face ghostly pale beneath the oxygen mask , her breathing shallow but steady . I stood by her bed , looking at her frail body wrapped in hospital gowns , and seemed felt something lodge in my throat. " Celia . " I spun around to see Dad standing windblown in the doorway , his suit wrinkled , tie askew - clearly having rushed back from overseas . " Dad … " My voice cracked as my knees buckled , sending me to the floor . " I'm sorry … this is all my fault … " Dad rushed over and pulled me up in two quick strides . " Stop that! The floor's freezing - what are you doing on your knees ? " His hands were rough and warm , but I could feel them trembling . " This isn't your fault . How could it be ? " I kept my head down as tears splashed onto the linoleum . Saw my reaction , Dad sighed and patted my back gently . " Back then , it was Knox himself who came to us and said he'd been in love with you for years … " Confusion filled his voice . " How did it suddenly come to this ? " Yes , everyone knew he had loved me . But why had he changed so completely in this life ? " Dad , " I took a deep breath , " I've made up my mind . I want to divorce Knox . " " We've been slowly moving our business overseas anyway , so … maybe it's time for our whole family to leave this place behind . " Dad fell silent . His gaze moved between me and Mom's motionless form on the bed . After a long moment , he finally spoke: " Are you sure you don't love him anymore ? " My nails dug deep into my palms until blood seeped between my fingers , but I felt no pain . " After what he did to Mom … " My voice was as fragile as a falling leaf , trembling and breaking in the air . " How could I… keep loving him ? " Dad was quiet again , then let out a heavy sigh that seemed to carry the weight of a final decision . " Then we'll leave . " 1.4 % Chapter 1 . He squeezed my shoulder . " Go handle the paperwork . I'll take care I nodded through my tears and walked out of the hospital room . of things here . " The immigration office procedures went smoothly . When I stepped out into the sunlight , it was so bright it made my eyes water . Standing on the sidewalk , I suddenly felt strangely detached from reality- It was finally over . That's when I heard the screech of brakes . " Look out- " Before I could turn around , a massive impact sent me flying through the air . I woke up to sharp , stabbing pain . The moment I opened my eyes , Knox's stern face was inches from mine . He looked down at me with undisguised disgust . " Celia , did you do this on purpose ? " " Saw Vivian get hurt in an accident and decided to copy her ? " He laughed coldly , his voice like ice . " Let me make this clear - we're just an arranged marriage . No feelings involved . No matter how much you try to imitate her , it's pointless . I don't have time to take care of you . " I opened my mouth to explain , but the hospital room door burst open . " Mr. Whitfield , here's the porridge you requested . " His assistant respectfully handed over a takeout container . Knox took it without looking and lifted the lid . His brow furrowed immediately . " Why is this seafood porridge ? " His voice carried clear displeasure . " She's allergic to seafood . Go get something else . " Those words hit me like lightning . Seafood allergy … In my previous life , it was our second year of marriage when I accidentally ate seafood and nearly went into shock . Only then did he learn about my allergy . But now … We'd only been married one year . Thinking about his recent strange behavior - the sudden coldness toward me , his inexplicable favoritism toward Vivian , and that cutting remark about " never loving you " … A wild thought crashed into my mind , making my whole body tremble . " Knox … " My voice was barely a rasp . " Are you … reborn too ?
