My five-year-old daughter Anna Lewis declared in front of the entire family during dinner that she was a reborn soul. She said, “In two minutes, Mom will personally hand me over to human traffickers and gouge out my eyes.” Everyone thought Anna was just talking nonsense. However, two minutes later, Anna really disappeared. When we found her again, her eyes were already a bloody mess. I, Lena Reed, rushed to hold Anna and dash to the hospital, but she whispered, “In the next second, Mom will stage a car accident to kill me completely because she suspects I’m not her biological child.” As soon as she finished speaking, a truck indeed crashed into the ambulance. Now the whole family began to believe that Anna might truly be a reborn soul. I desperately crawled out of the car, wanting to go back and save Anna, but my husband Anton Lewis grabbed me in fury, beat me severely, and left me bleeding on the roadside. Anna received timely medical treatment. Then she said again, “Mom is a homewrecker. To steal Dad away from Diana Edwards, she deliberately got pregnant with me. She doesn’t love me at all.” The whole family felt heartbroken for Anna, and Anton immediately filed for divorce and kicked me out of the house. I wandered the streets and eventually died from infected wounds in a garbage dump. When I woke up again, I had returned to the day Anna announced she was a reborn soul. ***** “I’m a reborn soul, I can predict the future.” Anna said in her childish voice. I opened my eyes and saw her standing on the table with her hands on her hips, looking proud. The whole family sat around, treating it as innocent childish nonsense, nobody taking it seriously. But I felt a chill down my spine. In my previous life, it was precisely because of these words that I ended up dying miserably on the streets. I touched the wounds on my body that had healed completely, yet the excruciating pain seemed to still linger in my body. Anton’s mother Sarah Lewis then chimed in, “Yes, yes, our Anna is a prophet, she’ll definitely achieve great things in the future.” But the dismissive tone in her voice triggered Anna’s displeasure, and she shouted loudly, “I’m telling the truth! In my past life, it was Mom who killed me, personally handing me over to human traffickers! “My eyes will be gouged out too, I’ll become blind!” Anna glared at me angrily, her expression terrifyingly serious. Her words immediately drew disapproval from Anton’s father Elliot Lewis. “Hey, what are you talking about? Been watching too many cartoons?” Hearing this, Anna threw herself into Sarah’s arms with a grieved expression. “Grandma, I’m not lying, Mom is a bad person, I don’t want to die…” Sarah said, “Anna is still young, you’re actually taking her words seriously? Why are you getting angry with her?” Seeing Sarah doting on Anna like this, I couldn’t help but sneer. If it weren’t for Anna’s words in my previous life that led to my miserable death, I might have believed it too. After comforting Anna, Sarah turned to look at me. “Lena, don’t just stand there. I noticed we’re out of salt in the kitchen, go downstairs and buy a pack.” I nodded, my mind calculating how to deal with Anna, and was just about to leave. Just then, Anna suddenly looked at me with terror. “Ah? Mom, are you going out to contact the human traffickers? Mom, don’t take me away!”
Anna’s sudden reaction worried Sarah, who immediately pulled Anna into a tight embrace. “Oh my, what’s gotten into Anna today? Why does she keep saying such strange things?” I stopped at the doorway, watching Anna curled up in Sarah’s arms, then glanced at the wall clock. At that moment, there was still one minute left before the time Anna claimed I would hand her over to human traffickers. Earlier, concerned that Anna might have been frightened, I hadn’t planned to go out shopping and had asked Sarah to do the errands instead. She had stayed with me for a while, then said her stomach hurt and needed to use the bathroom. I personally escorted her to the restroom, and she never came out. Even now, thinking back on it, I find the whole thing incredibly bizarre. Later, when the traffickers called with their ransom demands, we learned that Anna had truly been kidnapped. The police even sent someone to examine the bathroom, but they could never figure out how a five-year-old child could end up 30 miles away within an hour. I hesitated for a moment, closed the door, and pulled out my phone to call Anton. “Hey, remember to pick up some salt on your way home from work. Anna’s acting up at home—she might be sick.” Anton’s irritated voice came through the phone. “Are you kidding me? I’m in the middle of a client meeting! What exactly do you do at home? Can’t you go buy it yourself?” He hung up immediately after that. I wasn’t angry. I turned and walked back into the house, saying to Sarah, “Sarah, I think Anna might be traumatized. Let’s stay with her in the living room. I’ll arrange for a psychologist to come check on her later.” Hearing this, Sarah frowned. “Are you really being this dramatic? Anna’s just being a little mischievous.” “A child’s physical health is important, but so is their mental health.” I put on a worried expression and walked over to touch Anna’s face. Then I got up and pushed open the bathroom door, saying, “Sarah, didn’t I tell you the bathroom needs regular cleaning? Look, there are cockroaches running around. I just bought new insecticide and need to spray it thoroughly. Don’t let anyone use the bathroom for the next three hours—you could get poisoned.” My actions clearly disrupted Anna’s plan. Her expression showed obvious panic. This time, let’s see how Anna would validate her rebirth prophecy. Two minutes passed, and the so-called rebirth prophecy naturally fell apart. No one in the family took it seriously. Just then, Anna suddenly shouted loudly, “No, I’m going to mess my pants!” Sarah panicked when she heard this. “Oh no, what should we do? Lena, can’t we use the bathroom yet?” I had noticed Anna’s shifty eyes from the start—she was clearly plotting something. Looking at her, I pulled out a basin I had prepared earlier and said, “Just go here. The bathroom definitely can’t be used.” “I want to use the bathroom! I don’t want to go in a basin, or I’ll mess my pants!” Anna threatened. I just chuckled coldly. “Then go ahead and mess them. The bathroom can’t be used today anyway, and I can change you into clean pants.” My response left Anna speechless for a moment. She shouted frantically, “Mommy is the bad guy! Grandma, call the police and arrest Mommy, or she’s going to kill me!” I said, “Fine, when the police come, I’ll tell them you messed your pants.” Seeing my indifference, Anna simply pouted and started holding her breath, her face gradually turning red. “Anna, why are you doing this? Open your mouth and breathe!” Sarah was really afraid she’d hurt herself and quickly pried open her mouth. Watching her sulky behavior, I felt completely unmoved. Regarding Anna, I’ve always felt my parenting approach wasn’t fundamentally flawed. I tried to fulfill any reasonable request she had. I did everything I could to raise her to be an honest, loving child, but I could never understand why she turned out the way she did. Seeing my firm attitude, Anna actually held her breath and messed her pants. A foul smell spread through the room, and Sarah covered her nose, scolding, “You little brat!” She went to get water, preparing to clean Anna’s bottom. I didn’t stop her, just calmly got up and went to the bedroom to get clean pants. However, when I walked out of the room with the pants, I was completely stunned. Sarah stood there looking bewildered, holding the basin as we stared at each other, and Anna was gone! The living room was empty. Elliot had somehow fallen asleep on the couch, and Anna’s soiled pants were still lying on the floor. Sarah was frantic, searching every corner of the house inside and out, but there was no trace of Anna anywhere. No sound of doors opening or footsteps—a five-year-old child had mysteriously vanished once again. I muttered to myself, “How is this possible?” I was even more anxious than Sarah because I knew exactly what was coming next. “Is it really impossible to change?” I gritted my teeth, searching the room for any clues, but found nothing. Panic set in, and I instinctively made the same decision as in my previous life—I called the police. While waiting for the officers to arrive, I searched the entire neighborhood but still couldn’t find any trace of Anna. Unwilling to give up, I asked the property management to pull the security footage, but Anna was nowhere to be seen in the recordings. When the police arrived, everything unfolded almost exactly as it had in my previous life. They couldn’t find any valuable leads either, leaving us with nothing but a request for patience before they departed. It wasn’t until I received that video of Anna with her eyes gouged out that I fell into complete despair. What was meant to happen had happened. The kidnappers called, demanding a ransom of one million dollars. Seeing Anna’s condition, Sarah sobbed uncontrollably. Anton also rushed home from work. When he saw the footage of Anna being tortured, he charged at me in fury and delivered two resounding slaps across my face. He roared, “I asked you to watch the child at home—this is how you watch her? If anything happens to Anna, I’ll make you pay with your life!” If the police hadn’t been there, he probably would have killed me. Later, when the police questioned us again about any unusual circumstances during Anna’s disappearance, Elliot suddenly seemed to remember something and said, “I remember Anna saying that her mom would personally hand her over to human traffickers and gouge out her eyes.” Anna’s prophecy had come true. Sarah also looked like she’d had a revelation: “That’s right, I was recording at the time and think I caught it on video.” Sarah pulled out her phone and showed the video from that day. In the background of the footage, Anna was standing on the table, shouting those words that would send me plummeting into the abyss. I was stunned, having completely failed to notice when Sarah had recorded this video. Before I could fully process what was happening, Anton suddenly lunged at me like a madman, grabbing my collar: “That’s your own daughter—how could you do such a thing? Are you even human?” Before the police could pull him away, he kicked me hard in the chest. I crashed heavily to the ground, the intense pain snapping me back to reality. “Something’s wrong—something’s not right,” I thought frantically, until I saw Anton’s angry, twisted face and suddenly realized what it was. I said, “You believe the nonsense of a five-year-old? Your parents were both home at the time—why don’t you go suspect them instead?”
Sarah panicked when she saw me glaring at them. “That’s right, Anton. Lena was home with us the whole time taking care of Anna. How could she possibly do such a thing?” “Then how do you explain this?” Anton was about to charge over and beat me up again. At that moment, the police finally stepped in to stop him. “Enough! Saving lives is what matters. Wasting time arguing isn’t worth it.” The officer’s words helped Anton calm down slightly, but he still glared at me with hatred. The police then motioned for me to use my phone to call the kidnappers again so they could track their location. But just then, something Sarah said suddenly put me on high alert. I thought to myself: “Where did she learn to say those things? Could she really be reborn too?” My heart skipped a beat. If Anna truly was reborn and had been confronting me for so long, wouldn’t she have noticed that I was reborn too? So who was really behind Anna’s lies? I paused briefly, then said firmly: “No need to make the call. I know where the kidnappers will arrange to meet me.” The police looked at me with confusion. To prevent Anton from losing control, I specifically asked the officers to go to a separate room where I told them the exact location. Initially, the police didn’t believe me, until my phone received a text message from the kidnappers with the transaction details. The location mentioned was exactly the same as what I had told them. Though shocked, the police had no choice but to temporarily follow my arrangements in order to rescue the victim as quickly as possible. I made a further request: deploy only a small police force at the designated location for the arrest, while strengthening vehicle checkpoints on the main roads leading to the hospital. The lead officer said: “This is too risky, too dangerous. I have to be responsible for the hostage and my team members.” “But what if these kidnappers are just ordinary people being used? The real mastermind might be waiting on the road to ambush us!” I said emotionally. “I don’t want to watch them die.” The officer sensed something unusual about me and eventually agreed to my request, but also made it clear that they would immediately adjust their strategy if the situation changed. Actually, I dared to make this suggestion for a reason. In my previous life, after the police successfully rescued Anna, interrogation revealed that the kidnappers were actually a group of college students looking for part-time work. They claimed someone had hired them to stage a kidnapping, not knowing it would be real. This time, I arrived at the location agreed upon with the kidnappers right on time with the ransom money. Just like in my previous life, the police operation went very smoothly, and Anna was safely rescued. Due to her severe injuries, Anna was immediately rushed to the hospital for treatment. Throughout the journey, I stayed by her side. She looked to be in terrible pain, with the wounds around both eye sockets already infected. She was only five years old, my most beloved daughter. Seeing her in this condition broke my heart. This time, I didn’t wait for her to speak first. Instead, I asked the question that had been weighing on my mind: “Anna, tell me, did Daddy tell you to do this?” However, the moment I finished speaking, Anna suddenly started screaming: “Ahhhhh, Mommy, please don’t kill me! I was wrong! I’ll never speak out of turn again!” While she was crying and shouting, she secretly slipped a watch into my hand. BANG! A thunderous crash erupted as a fully loaded truck came barreling toward us without warning. The vehicle Anna and I were in flipped over instantly. What was meant to happen had finally come to pass. I crawled out through the ambulance’s side window again, overwhelmed by intense dizziness that made me nauseous. I watched Anton, Elliot, and Sarah jump out of their police car and rush over to help. When Anna was pulled from the wreckage, she had completely lost consciousness and couldn’t say a word. Nearly half the ambulance had been crushed, and one paramedic died on the spot. Police dragged the truck driver, Russell Hart, from his seat and quickly restrained him. “My Anna!” While I stood there in a daze, Anton’s anguished cry pierced my ears. I turned to see him holding Anna’s lifeless body, sobbing in despair. His pain was real and profound—definitely not an act. Sarah screamed, “It’s you! You killed my granddaughter! I heard it—she begged you not to kill her!” “Give me back my granddaughter, give her back…” Sarah ran over and slapped me hard across the face, then collapsed to the ground, weeping uncontrollably. The pain helped clear my head slightly. I stared at Russell, struggling to accept what I was seeing. I mumbled, “No, impossible. How could Anna be dead? She was supposed to be saved.” “What went wrong? What the hell went wrong?” The outcome had changed, but I had too many questions. Before I could figure it out, Anton suddenly pulled out a knife and lunged at me. Caught off guard, I was stabbed multiple times. His eyes were bloodshot, as if he wanted to tear me apart alive. He roared, “Why? Why did you kidnap Anna? Wasn’t beating her enough for you?” “She’s just a child! Even if she knew about your business, so what? Why did you have to kill her to keep her quiet? You monster! You don’t deserve to be her mother, you don’t deserve…” Anton kept saying things I couldn’t understand. I wanted to ask what he meant, but suddenly my body felt weightless. I collapsed. Anton was also subdued by arriving officers. The crash scene descended into chaos. I had so many unanswered questions, but there was no one left to provide answers. At my hospital bedside, a lawyer said, “Ms. Reed, your daughter is dead, and police are investigating whether you’re involved in her murder.” “This is something your husband asked me to give you. Please review it.” He handed me a document: “This divorce agreement has already been signed by Mr. Lewis. He asked me to tell you he’s willing to give you all the family assets.” “However, he will also file a lawsuit against you, charging you with murdering your own daughter. We’ll notify you separately about the court date.” The lawyer left after speaking. I stared at the divorce papers in my hands, gripping them tightly. “Why me?” I whispered to myself. Though this life was different from the last, the result was the same. I didn’t understand what I’d done wrong or where things had gone off track. I’d suspected Anton, but judging by his current behavior, he seemed to have no reason to manipulate Anna into doing those things. So why had Anna become like that, constantly saying I would hurt her? What could a five-year-old child have experienced to make her act that way? After thinking long and hard, I suddenly remembered what Anton had said when he stabbed me. He must know some truth I didn’t. But given the current situation, there was no way he’d communicate with me calmly. Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind. After being discharged, I went straight to the police station. Since my case was still under investigation, I was a key person of interest. After hearing my request, the police agreed to let me see Anna’s body in the morgue, but with time restrictions. When I saw the dark purple bruises covering Anna’s body, I froze completely. The medical examiner told me these marks could only result from prolonged, severe abuse. He also said, “And her injuries show old wounds that hadn’t healed before new ones were added. If you didn’t hurt Anna, then someone else definitely did.” The police also told me Russell wasn’t a suspect—the accident was caused by vehicle malfunction. Combined with Anna’s statements before her death, all evidence seemed to point to me again. The officer continued, “However, we discovered your daughter was missing something. Your husband said it was a digital watch. Have you seen it?” His words hit me like thunder. I didn’t immediately turn over the watch, instead pretending ignorance and quickly leaving the station. Only after confirming I was safe did I open the watch. A memo popped up on the tiny screen. As I read those lines of text, tears instantly streamed down my face. I finally understood why Anna had become the way she was.
