Rebirth Into My Second Chance

It all boiled down to the mystery man behind Kate's actions. And then there was the question of who fathered the child in my previous life.

But Claude wouldn't let me leave. Every step I took back only made him grip my wrist tighter, dragging me toward the mansion.

I yelled at him. "Let go!"

"Clair, I don't owe you anything, but you owe me a big one!" His sudden harsh turn and lifting me over his shoulder, ignoring my struggles, only quickened his pace.

"Claude, I don't love you!" I thought saying that would repel him.

But he said, "It doesn't matter. You only need to be mine."

He threw me onto the couch on the first floor, pinning my wrists with one hand and his legs pressing against mine.

I cried, "I hate you, Claude, I hate you..."

When I felt desperate, the mansion's door suddenly opened. As Claude rose to see, I grabbed a couch cushion and hurled it at him. Taking advantage of his brief shock, I bolted for the door.

The mansion's doors flew open, and a stream of bodyguards in black suits rushed in. Backlit by the light, the man in the middle seemed like my savior. He quickened his pace, reaching out to embrace me.
