On My Birthday, My Lover Wanted Me Dead With Him

When I woke up in this new life, Elion was at my door, tears streaming down his face as he pleaded.

"Die with you? Why would I waste my second chance on someone so pathetic? You’re so poor; the only thing you’ve got left is your pride. Meanwhile, I have an inheritance worth billions waiting for me."

Elion froze, disbelief etched across his face before rage twisted his features. "Vernia, you witch! You never loved me!"

"You’re right. The love I had for you is long dead. But the desire to watch you burn? Oh, that’s very much alive."
