Chapter 65

Chapter 9

As I held the USB in my hand, memories from my previous life flashed through my mind.

I remembered the time I had stumbled upon Lucas and Nancy at the amusement park, their daughter Ciara with them.

Ciara, who was about Cody's age, sat in the back seat of Lucas's car, holding a melting ice cream cone.

Nancy sat in the passenger seat, playfully hitting Lucas's chest, causing Ciara to giggle as the ice cream dripped everywhere.

Lucas, who had always been so fussy about cleanliness, didn't mind at all.

In fact, the three of them laughed together, as if they were a happy family.

I remembered the time Cody had been hungry during a traffic jam, and I had handed him a chocolate bar.

Some crumbs had fallen in the car, and Lucas had exploded in anger, kicking us out of the car in the middle of traffic.

I stood there with Cody in my arms, stuck between the rushing cars, as Lucas drove off.

Cody had cried, begging for forgiveness.

"Daddy, please don't leave me and Mommy! I'll be good. I'll never make a mess in your car again!"

Thinking of this, I smiled bitterly.
