Chapter 488 Living Alone Truly Is Too Hard

The paper still bore traces of dried tears, smudging certain words, which my own tears then moistened further.

"Don't cry. Your children can feel your emotions clearly now. When you're sad, they will be sad with you." I lay in Carter's arms, my tears soaking his clothes.

I had never cried so much before, but since my rebirth, tears seemed beyond my control.

I despised the futility of my rebirth. As a ghost, I could not turn into a vengeful spirit to seek revenge on my enemies. Now, reborn, I possessed none of the powers characters in novels did.

Instead, I faced countless hidden enemies who had plotted against me for years, waiting in the shadows for any sign of weakness to strike and tear me apart.

"Carl, I'm powerless. All I can do is watch helplessly as Whitney falls into danger."

Carter stroked my head reassuringly. "Chloe, we're not gods, but even gods have their limitations. We can't save everyone. Living our own lives well is already an achievement. Your sister and I had a long talk."

I looked up at him, curious. "What did you talk about?"

"She shared her thoughts. Her current life is akin to a mortal aspiring for immortality, only to find that it's not as envisioned. She doesn't seek immortality; she simply wishes to return to the mortal world. Taylor protected her for 20 years; now, she wishes to protect him in return.

"Even if we tie up those around her, we can't bind her heart. She wants me to tell you that, whatever happens, she won't regret her decision.

"Her greatest regret is leaving Taylor on Rosbel Island. If their fate turns tragic this time, she's prepared to die with him. Living without him is too bitter."

These words brought forth more tears from me. I saw glimpses of scenes unfold before me a person traversing many places, from dawn till dusk.

From the lush bloom of spring to the snowy stillness of winter.

Day by day, year by year.
