After being reborn, I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter

Once I figured all that out, I realized there was no point in beating myself up over it anymore.

People with real power always stood above the rest, living on another level. Only those who had tasted that kind of privilege could ever understand its true allure.

Just as I was about to doze off, the hospital room door suddenly creaked open. Maybe it was just a draft from the hallway, but the sound sent a jolt straight to my nerves.

My scalp tingled as I snapped my eyes to the door. It had stopped moving, but it was still hanging wide open.

Right then, my mind was instantly swamped with all those real–life horror stories I’d seen in TikTok comment sections back in my previous life.

I felt a cold sweat break out all over me. I wanted to dive under the covers, but it just felt too stifling to hide.

Nope, I just couldn’t do it. I’ve always been a total coward, and there was no way I could stay awake in the middle of the night, staring at that open door in a hospital room.

The longer I stared, the more my imagination ran wild. Suddenly, I heard a few noises from the hallway that sounded kind of like a kitten, and it sent chills down my spine.

I called out softly, “Nathan, are you awake?”

Nathan replied, “Yeah, still up.”

“Um… the hospital room door… seems like it’s open,” I said, my voice trembling.

Nathan glanced over and said lightly, “Probably just the wind.”

Guys never get spooked like women do–they’re always braver, not as jumpy or sensitive. Nathan just figured the door was open because of the wind, nothing more.

But in my previous life, I used to scroll through TikTok comment sections all the time, reading all those creepy real stories from nurses and doctors. Right now, my head was packed full of those spooky tales.
