That moment seemed to be unfolding in slow motion.

David attempted to reach for the lighter, but it was too far away. Immediately after, he sprayed the fire extinguisher, but it couldn’t catch up with the speed at which the flames were spreading.
As the flames rapidly spread across the ground toward sabella, a sudden loud bang was heard.
Alexander, with Isabella in his arms, crashed through the window, plummeting rapidly.
Isabella felt her tears streaming uncontrollably. She also noticed that upon their jump, their positions were switched. Overwhelmed by the gesture, she couldn’t help but embrace the man who had completely shielded her.
She thought, Can you really hear me? Is there a cushion below? Are they ready?
She prayed in her heart, Please, gossip system, grim reaper, all beings of the universe, I beg of you, don’t let anything bad happen to us. I plead with you, I want both of us to survive, so we can live together till old age.
As the sensation of weightlessness washed over her, Isabella felt a sudden warmth in her heart, followed by an intense headache. It was as if a flood of information had surged into her brain.
Isabella found herself reminiscing about countless events, as if she had lived two lifetimes.
She was the cherished little princess of the Jeannet family, adored by her loving parents. She had met Alexander when she was very young, but she was too little at the time and eventually forgot about him.
Life was going well until she turned fifteen, when a car accident took her parents away, leaving her alone.
She had nearly died then, when she had encountered what one to as the grim reaper.
The grim reaper had instructed her to leave, but as she watched her parents being taken away, she was consumed with anxiety, desperately yearning to call out to them.
At that moment, someone of seemingly higher authority appeared. He was scribbling on a book with a pen, murmuring. “Your life is significant because you are destined by the heavens to marry someone with extraordinary fortune in this world. You will assist him and those around him, and their power will greatly influence this world. Therefore, you can return to the living.
“What about my parents?”
“They are steeped in sin, and in their next life, they have to endure worldly hardships to atone for their guilt.”
“How can that be! My parents are good people. They are-”
“They were good people, but this accident was caused by your parents‘ drunk driving and running a red light. Do you have any idea how many people died because of this pile–up? How many families were torn apart? If it weren’t for their extensive charity work, the karmic debt your parents incurred from this one incident would take three generations to pay off. So, considering all that, a lifetime is actually getting off lightly.”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It was all my fault. Because of my sudden illness and the fact that I was almost going

“Sigh, there is still one way to make amends. In another world, there’s a pair of virtuous parents who wish to change the fate of their prematurely deceased daughter. If you’re willing to give up your identity to her and endure the loneliness in that other world, you can offset the guilt of your parents, allowing them to be reborn into a normal family.”
For Isabella, there was absolutely no reason for hesitation. She agreed instantly and signed the contract.
This was how she ended up believing that she was an orphan when her life wasn’t meant to end prematurely.
However, due to their unilateral switching of lives, problems began to emerge in their world.
To put it simply, Alexander, the one destined to be blessed, did not fall in love with the newcomer.
The newcomer was aware of the fate that came with her status. Therefore, she tried to make Alexander fall in love with her but only ended up being more despised, not to mention that her marrying him only led to him seeing other women.
Gradually, the role that Isabella was supposed to play didn’t come into effect at all. She neither redeemed Alexander, nor altered the fate of others that she should have. It was only when the higher–ups noticed the increasingly significant impact that they hurriedly recalled the real Isabella.
The so–called Gossip System and mind reading skill were in fact, means provided by the grim reaper to compensate for the progress of the world line.
From the beginning until now, everything had caught up and the world had returned to stability.
And so, the system and mind–reading skill transformed into a ball of energy, protecting Isabella’s most precious treasure. No… it was the two of them. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
In the quiet hospital ward, the gauze curtains fluttered in the breeze. The gentle wind brushed against Isabella’s quivering eyelashes, stirring emotions in the man who often found himself lost in her gaze. Yet, the very next second, as her eyelashes settled, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.
