Who are you?

What do you want?

Why... me?

These were the few questions Penny had for Jonathan when she confirmed his existence. The moment she realized Jonathan Pierson wasn't just an alias, more questions began popping into her head every time she thought of him.

Why was he there on her execution day? Why did he want to see her end?

At first, Penny thought the attack on their family was all there was. But as things slowly unraveled, piece by piece, more questions filled her mind. Unfortunately, only a few were answered, leaving her with lingering doubts.

"Jonathan Pierson," she whispered, seated on the couch, surrounded by gifts from the Pierson family. In her hand was an open box with a small belt inside.

Just gazing at it made her remember the last day of her previous life. Back then, Penny had already given up, simply going with the flow. She felt as if all the vigor and determination she'd had during her incarceration vanished into thin air.

But she could still remember how her body fell into that chair. The grip of the officer as they pinned her arms to the armrests, strapping them with those little belts. The deep breaths against her sides, her heart pounding, and how her spirit slowly died before her body.

"Did he... succeed?" Another whisper slipped from her lips, unsure of what happened after her death. "What happened after that?"

Finn had told her that he was able to live even after Penny's death. Until that point, Penny had believed the world stopped when she died. But since learning that people still lived afterward, she found herself wondering about so many things. freewebnovel.com

One of those things was whether Jonathan had succeeded... or not.
