Returning back to the start

The rest was history before everything around her turned completely dark but there was only a single thought going through her mind that If she survived, she would no longer be tied by a family who did not love her, she definitely will not fall in love with the same man, and she would only love herself.

As long as she could live on.............

Emily was awakened by the sound of the thunder as she lay in the annexe of the Lu Manor. It was night time, and the heavy rain pounded against the white bay window. A flash of lightning shone through the window, casting a bright light on her and the messy bed she was laying on. She could faintly hear the voices of two men talking outside. Despite feeling feverish, she tried to get up. Suddenly she froze as a sudden thought crossed her. Wait!!.......w-wasn't she dead???

Even if she wanted to live, she still knew better than anyone else that she couldn't have survived after she completely pulled off all the tubes connecting her to the life support machines and on top of it her legs have been paralyzed for the past three years — how were they able to move now??

Emily reached for her legs subconsciously and noticed a Jade ring on her left thumb!! If she was not wrong, the same ring was a present from the Lu's upon her engagement, but it was taken away from her when she was eighteen!!!

The series of shocking revelations made her start to think of the situation more clearly.

Heavy rains, a luxurious bungalow room, waking up after being drugged ,the two men talking outside.......

C-could........Could it be that she didn't die but somehow traveled to the time every nightmare started?? Did life restart on the night, the worst nightmare of her life happened?? She couldn't believe it!!!!

But upon realizing this, her first reaction was terror instead of joy. Because if it was really the same night, then...... the two men talking outside were the two scoundrels who wanted to rape her!!

In her previous life, she tried her best to fight back despite being drugged and even managed to use a cell phone to hit one of the man's head but he hit her back and she fainted. Eventually, she woke up from the pain of being tortured by them. Now it was happening again, but this time she regained her consciousness earlier than in her previous life.

Emily's heart started pounding furiously against her chest because if everything happened just like the last time, Lily, together with others, was going to burst into the room to 'catch her in the act' in a few moments. That was how she was completely disgraced in her previous life and had to call off the engagement. If this was her second chance to live, she definitely wouldn't let the history repeat itself. She was going to save herself this time round!!!

She must get help!!!

She got up from the bed and immediately collapsed — after not being able to walk for three long years, she had somehow forgotten how to walk. The voices outside immediately stopped when they heard her fall.

"There's a noise coming from the room!! Is she awake??" Emily almost stopped breathing when she high those familiar voices from her past life nightmare. She quickly grabbed her clothes and used all her strength to get up from the floor. The icy raindrops splashed directly onto her through the open window as she realised that there was a problem — the room she was laying in was on the second story.

The annexe was very far from the main house where a family party was being held on this very night. As such, all the servants should be in the main house busy serving the guests, so even if she shouted tell her voice was hoarse, she would not be heard over the heavy rain. But she didn't have that much time on her because the men outside had reached the door and were turning the handle!!! With no other way out, Emily did not have time to hesitate. She climbed up the window despite aching all over her body and jumped down!!!
