A Husband For Killer Mom

Michele was relieved that this uninhabited building had no people or master Yu’s men anymore. Anxia had also left this place, leaving her behind. She walked while pressing her stomach wound to endure the pain. She felt like she would faint at any moment, and her whole muscle was numb. But when she saw a highway not far ahead, Michele felt she got a new energy.

Michele walked with small steps, but when her feet stepped on the highway, a speeding car sounded and was about to hit her. Knowing someone unknown had come to notice her presence, Michele fainted right then and there.

Michele had no idea what had happened to her during her unconsciousness. When she woke up, she was in an unfamiliar room with no wound on her belly―she couldn’t find a scar on her skin, as if no one had stabbed her. Moreover, she met four strangers who claimed to save her. Two of them had the same face, while the other was a beautiful teenager with reddish brown hair like the twins. The last one was a handsome young man with a charming smile and striking red hair. Judging from their faces, the only girl amongst them was the sister of twins, while the red-haired youth was a native local.

Not long after, one of the twins approached Michele and asked how she was. From there, she became acquainted with Raymond, Richard, and Harmonie. The red-haired youth was Chu Jung, a young man the same age as the twins and currently studying at the same institute as the twins.

Since then, Michele has received protection from Raymond and a lovely friend like Harmonie.

At that time, Michele thought about what had happened to her in the last five years. The more she thought about this, the more she hated Anxia. If possible, Michele wanted to avenge Anxia and Master Yu. But she knew she couldn’t possibly fight against such a big triad gang alone, and she didn’t want to involve her saviors.

In the end, Michele decided to leave.

However, Raymond chased after her, even confessing his affection to her. Gradually, Raymond made Michele forget her grudges and fall in love with the young man. When Raymond asked her to return with him because the student exchange program in China had ended, Michele said yes.

.....

When she stepped foot in Schiphol airport, Michele decided to overlook everything, including Qiao Anxia. After all, she would never meet that fake little sister―and Anxia had already considered her dead.

In the eleven years since she met Raymond, Michele’s smile returned. She felt she got her family back―a considerate father and loving mother―a brother and a younger sister who always supported and accompanied her when she felt lonely. Most of all, Michele had a husband who viewed her as his queen and protected her from danger.

All of that blessed feeling came to an end when she reunited with Qiao Anxia at the airport. They shouldn’t have met again―this world was so vast, and she believed that Anxia would only live around Asia.

But why … Why did Anxia even become the wife of Richard, her brother-in-law?

As if someone was digging a grave without anyone else knowing, Michele felt Anxia dig into her memories that she had buried long ago. She recalled what Anxia had done to her, and she was afraid that Anxia would play her part again and hurt her or anyone she cared about. As a result, Michele drove Anxia and threatened her a few days ago.

She was sure Anxia would hate her because of what she did. But the girl was acting utterly contrary to her expectations. Anxia lets Michele hold Anxia’s arm, even protecting her from a gunshot.

Michele didn’t understand―she couldn’t understand why Anxia would be willing to protect her. Could it be... Anxia was just like her―wanting to restart anew?

Anxia was an expert at acting and putting on a fake smile. Michele was afraid that this girl would do something that would hurt her and the Calvin family while she was off guard.

That’s why…

“Qiao Anxia, ??I have something to ask you.”

“Go ahead.”

“I’ve asked you before, but I never heard the answer. Now I want to hear it.”

Anxia blinked her eyes a few times, wondering what kind of question she had not answered.

“Which one?”

“On the day we saw the meteor shower on the roof of our house, I told you my wish. Do you remember what my wish was?”

Michele didn’t expect Anxia to remember it because Anxia was still very young back then, and most likely, she had forgotten about it long ago.

But Anxia surprised her with the unexpected answer, “I still do. You wish to be my sister again in our next life.”

“Then... do you remember what I asked you?”

“I do.”

Michele gripped the fabric of her clothes nervously because she didn’t expect Anxia to remember her still. She thought Anxia had forgotten everything related to her or the Wong family. After all, wouldn’t a person who doesn’t sincerely love someone quickly forget that person?

But in fact, Anxia still remembers it. Does that mean…

“I never told you my wish back then. I wished that nothing would hurt you or your family at that time. But… I couldn’t disobey master, so… my wish was….” No one granted Anxia’s request.

“I understand. In that case… what is your answer?” Michele referred to her question about whether Anxia would be willing to be her sister again if they had a second life.

“If there is a second life, I don’t want to get involved with my master or the others. I want us both to be born from the same mother.”

Michele’s brown-black eyes glistened at that. Then she moved forward to hug Anxia tightly. “Welcome home, Xiao Xia.”

Anxia gasped when she heard this. Every time she came home from the harsh training given by her mentor, Michele always welcomed her with a bear-like hug and said these words.

Anxia also remembered that she returned Michele’s greeting with, “I’m home, Jie Jie.”
