Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 522 A New Life I looked at the table full of people my parents from my past life and my family in this present life.

I felt like I was dreaming. After experiencing so many separations between life and death, all of this felt unreal.

Carter poured me half a glass of wine. "Chloe, let's raise a toast to celebrate your new life."

Not a rebirth, but a new life.

My life was truly restarting at this moment.

Philippa raised her glass and said, "My sweet daughter, I wish for all your past hardships to fade away and for the coming year to bring you new blossoms."

Bill also spoke up, "I hope for you to always be safe and live a smooth and joyful life."

Zoey smiled and said, "Those who chase the light will eventually shine bright. Chloe, from now on, we must live as radiantly as the sun."

Kate's eyes welled up with tears. She couldn't call me 'daughter' like Philippa did. Instead, she said softly, "I ... I wish you a life of peace, health, and freedom from harm."

For her, the fact that I was alive was already the best she could wish for.

Jeffrey was very emotional, too. Even Luke, who remained silent, raised his glass. "Zoey, I hope you stay happy, healthy, safe and sound. The rest comes second."

Carter gazed at me affectionately. "Chloe, may we share joy together, year after year, at every moments."

I raised my glass, feeling my eyes welling up with tears.

Looking at the people here, all past grudges seemed to vanish.

Only after death did we realize that no resentment matters more than being alive.

Being alive, was the best fate for me.
