Here's the translation: "I poured my heart and soul into raising my daughter, only to be seen as controlling her. She accidentally pushed me down the stairs, leading to my death. When I got a second chance at life, I decided I no longer wanted to be a 'good mom.' My daughter took the opportunity to go to her 'good dad,' but after experiencing everything, she realized it wasn't the paradise she had imagined. She returned once again, but I knew her nature was hard to change. She was threatened by her dad to send me to an old man, but I was already prepared. In the end, I sent both her and her 'good dad' to prison."

Chapter 1

Raising my daughter through hardship and sacrifice, all I received in return were her complaints.

She said I constantly pressured her and that her father treated her better.

She wanted freedom and refused to be my puppet.

During an argument, she accidentally pushed me down the stairs.

She looked at me coldly, saying, "It'd be better if you died!

Then I could go find Dad!"

Living again, if she thinks her father is better, so be it.

"All you care about is studying!

What else can you do besides forcing me to study all day?"

"You're stuck in a rut, hoping I can become something great?"

"You're nothing like Dad!

Only he truly loves me!

He never forces me to do anything I don't want to!"

The room was a mess, chaos everywhere.

Even her beloved piano was smashed.

My head throbbed as I watched my child scream at me.

"No wonder Dad divorced you. You want to control your own child!

You're nothing compared to family friend Karlee!

She's gentle and caring, unlike you, always nagging!"

My own daughter hurled harsh words at me, each one piercing.

In my past life, I didn't want to give up on her.

I didn't want her father to spoil her or her stepmother to indulge her.

But all I got was enmity with my own child.

This time, I chose silence.

I once thought I neglected her too much.

When she was five, I divorced her father, and the agreed child support never arrived on time.

I juggled two jobs while caring for her education, not wanting her to struggle like I did.

Now I realize she's an ungrateful child.

Unlike before, I didn't try to persuade her.

After she vented, she destroyed the cherished bracelet from my mother.

"I'm going to find Dad!

It's all your fault for keeping me tied to you!

You said a stepmother isn't as good as a real mother, but you're worse than family friend Karlee!"

I was fed up. "Fine, go find your dad."

"Fine, I will!"

She stomped her foot and stormed out.

I crouched down, picking up the shattered bracelet.

"Why should I make myself suffer trying to be a good mom?"

The broken pieces cut my palm, and tears fell.

My mother was so gentle when she was alive.

Like me, she divorced when I was young and raised me alone.

I thought I could raise a child well without a man.

Now I see I was wrong.

No matter how much I gave, an ungrateful child remains ungrateful.

I gave up.

I didn't want to exhaust myself trying to be a good mother.

When my daughter ran out, I didn't chase her.

I cleaned up the house, threw out the mess, and went to rest.

I had work the next day and didn't want to keep torturing myself because of her.

"Give me money!"

When I got home from work, she was sitting on the sofa.

She didn't realize her mistake and demanded money from me.

I ignored her and headed to the kitchen.

"Hey, can't you hear me?

I told you to give me money!"

She blocked my way, full of malice, treating me like an enemy rather than a mother.

"What are you doing?"

She looked at me with hostility. "Are you deaf?

Can't you hear me talking to you?

Working tirelessly at that thankless job all day, have you gone stupid?

How am I supposed to find Dad if you don't give me money?"

Gianna Benton, a woman who came from a great family, a family with ancient history, had always lived a life that's overshadowed by her younger sister, Quinn. After her unfair death with her unborn baby at the hands of the man she loved, Gianna got reborn. Now with the opportunity to live again, Gianna rejects her mate and gives herself to alpha Axel, falling into an unexpected contract marriage. Both plans to use each other, and falling in love isn't part of the deal for them. Gianna plans to get her revenge on her former lover, alpha Nathan, who killed her in the past because of her younger sister, but surprisingly to her, alpha Nathan wants his mate back, and Gianna is determined not to let the past repeat itself. ------------------------------------------------- "Is this hell?" "Gianna, what's wrong with you? I know that you are excited, but you need to stop acting weird." Mom said. I reach out my hands to touch her face, but she slaps my hands away. This is real, I thought. Somehow, I have gone back in time to the day I got married to Alpha Nathan. "I need to take a picture of you, but I can't do it without your sister. Wait here for me while I go get your sister." Mom left the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts. My hands formed a fist in anger as I thought of Quinn and Alpha Nathan. I don't know how I have traveled back to the past, but I'm not going to let myself make the same mistake I did in my past life; I'm not getting married to alpha Nathan. No matter what, I need to put a stop to this wedding.
