Chapter 4 Rebirth
pain.
A pain that penetrated deep into her bones made Serena frown tightly, as if thousands of needles were piercing her body.
Suddenly, her heart trembled violently.
Aren't you already dead?
Why can I still feel such pain?
Serena tried to open her eyes to find out what was going on, but her eyelids felt as if they were weighed down by a thousand-pound weight and she couldn't open them.
Just then, the sound of footsteps came from far away and gradually reached her ears.
"Shirley," a middle-aged male voice deliberately lowered its voice, the tone full of anxiety and uneasiness, "What on earth is going on?!"
Samuel?!
After Serena was sure that she had heard correctly, she clenched her hands tightly under the quilt, her nails digging deep into her flesh, but she was unaware.
Wasn't Samuel killed by Tristan himself? !
Just as Serena was confused, another familiar female voice sounded.
"I pushed her accidentally," Shirley said nonchalantly, clearly not caring at all. "Who knew she lost her balance and rolled down the stairs."
She looked at Serena, who was still stunningly beautiful even though she was unconscious, with mockery and disdain in her eyes.
"I think maybe she did this on purpose to avoid marrying the Miller family."
Pushed down the stairs by Shirley?
Miller family marriage?
Serena's eyebrows raised slightly, and a sense of foreboding surged in her heart.
This happened three years ago, why is it happening again?
Could it be...
An extremely absurd yet incredible thought emerged in Serena 's mind.
"The Miller family will come to pick us up tomorrow," Samuel said, with a hint of urgency and fear in his voice. "How are we going to explain to the Miller family about Serena's condition?"
Of course, what he cared about was not Serena's physical condition, but whether he could successfully use Serena to establish a relationship with the Miller family.
"Just say that Serena accidentally fell down the stairs, and let the Miller family pick her up tomorrow , " Rosalind frowned, looking at Serena with dissatisfaction and resentment in her eyes. "I think it's better for this dead girl to be unconscious. Otherwise, I don't know how she will make a fuss if she knows that we sold the hospital left to her by that old man and agreed to the Miller family 's marriage."
" But..." Samuel wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shirley .
"Dad, Mom is right," Shirley said coldly, "By the time Serena wakes up, everything will have been settled. It will be too late for her to regret it."
She narrowed her beautiful eyes and raised a sly smile at the corner of her mouth. "Then we can say that the Miller family is using their power to suppress others. We, the Smith family, have no choice but to do this. No matter how angry Serena is, it is only directed at the Miller family, not us."
The truth behind my marriage to the Miller family in my previous life turned out to be like this? !
Serena listened to their conversation, and she felt like she was in an ice cellar. A bone-chilling chill spread from her heart to her whole body. It was because of Samuel and his words and deeds that she had great hostility towards the Miller family from the beginning .
Now it seems that I was extremely wrong from the beginning.
"But then again," Shirley's voice was filled with jealousy and dissatisfaction, "this damn girl is really lucky to be able to marry into the Miller family. I don't know what tricks that old man from the Shi family used back then."
That’s the Miller family, an upper-class family at the top of the pyramid.
Serena married into the Miller family with the marriage certificate, and instantly stood at a height that Shirley could never reach.
" Didn't mom tell you?" Seeing her daughter's uneasy expression, Rosalind immediately took her hand and whispered to comfort her, " Although the Miller family is rich enough to rival a country, the situation within the family is very complicated, comparable to a dragon's den and a tiger's lair. And Tristan is cruel and ugly, it's not a good marriage at all."
At this point, she lowered her voice even lower, almost whispering, "Otherwise, Mom will definitely find a way to get you to marry in place of that damn girl Serena."
Shirley's unhappiness disappeared again, and a sneer of disdain flashed across her eyes as she looked at Serena.
"That's right." She said calmly, "Besides, with the Miller family connection, I can marry into any family I want. Serena has sacrificed herself to help me."
" Okay," Samuel sighed as he looked at Serena who was still unconscious on the bed , "Let's go downstairs to eat."
After they left, Serena slowly opened her eyes.
She looked at the time on the electronic calendar and her pupils shrank suddenly.
She was reborn!
She was reborn three years ago, on the eve of her marriage into the Miller family!
Serena's eyes were glowing crimson, and her hands were shaking slightly.
Rebirth!
It means that everything has a chance to start over again!
Including her and Tristan's fate!
Serena thought of Tristan's desperate and lonely look, and her heart ached as if someone was holding it tightly in their hands.
" Tristan..." She whispered in a low voice, "In this life, we must be fine. I will face my love for you and will not run away anymore. I will protect you and us."
As for Samuel and the entire Smith family...
Serena's beautiful eyes, filled with bone-chilling coldness, slowly narrowed. She would make them pay a heavy price!
