In This Rebirth, I'll Make My Wife and Daughter Lose Everything!1
I was reborn!
In my last life, my wife and her lover schemed to take all my assets.
My daughter accepted a thief as her father. She was thrilled to finally get rid of me!
I died in a strange car accident on a winter night.
In this life, they knelt by my side. They begged me not to leave...
***
I pretended to divorce my wife, Luna Jones, to help her get the company's single apartment.
To let my daughter, Eleanor Taylor, take advantage of the student home-buying discount to buy a large apartment, I sold the house and the farm I was running as they requested.
I thought I could soon remarry Luna. I wanted to end the days of our family living apart.
When I put on the down jacket Luna prepared for me in the restaurant and came out, I unexpectedly overheard a heartbreaking conversation between them.
"Mom, you must not remarry that poor guy. Everyone thinks Mr. Young is my dad. They think my dad is the president of Tanaxes' largest property company. Ethan said we would get married right after graduation..."
Since I quit my job and returned to the village to manage the farm, Eleanor despised me.
She thought I was sloppy and unkempt. I looked even more rural than the villagers.
She never video-called me, afraid her classmates might see.
One time, I impulsively went to her school to visit. She avoided me from a distance and took a detour.
I thought she didn't see me. I chased her, calling out all the way.
In the end, she called me from far away. She coldly told me to leave immediately and complained that I dressed like a beggar, embarrassing her in front of her classmates.
"Don't worry, do you think I'm stupid? I put so much effort into getting rid of him. He's a useless coward. It's not our fault we're heartless..."
Luna's words crushed my last illusions.
"Mr. Young? She had a lover." What broke my heart the most was that the daughter I had cherished all along accepted all this!
It turned out they had always been plotting to cut ties with me.
"You..." I wanted to step forward and ask them for an explanation.
But the sudden blow left me powerless. Just as I lifted my foot, I stumbled and collapsed by the roadside.
Suddenly, a strong light shone. When I turned around, it was too late to dodge. I watched as the car's headlights grew from small to large.
