Chapter 2 Second Chance at Life Seryna woke up , panting heavily . She was freezing and immediately pulled the blanket over herself . She wondered , " Didn't I freeze to death in the snow ? Why am I in the room now ? " She glanced at the clock on the wall , and everything became clear . She had traveled back in time . With all her memories intact , she was 22 again . Suddenly , a cold voice rang out above her . " Seryna , what are you daydreaming about ? Your grandma is talking to you ! " It was Jennett speaking . Seryna looked up and saw her grandma , Devona Rigsby . After she was brought back into the Willard family , Devona rushed over from her place and asked if she wanted to live with her . Trying to win the favor of the Willard family , she refused . In the end , Devona was killed by Tehila . Chapter 2 Second Chance at Life Seryna wouldn't leave until every Willard paid the price . In this life , she no longer cared about their love . She would make them pay , blood for blood ! " Seryna , you've been through so much ."" Seryna looked into Devona's loving eyes and smiled , " Grandma , what truly pains me is that I couldn't be there for you all these years . I wanted to stay by Mom's and Dad's side . Mom carried me for ten months , only to have me switched by the maid with her daughter . Grandma , you have to stand up for me on this. I've been through 22 years of hardship out there . If I had been at home , I could have been with you all along . " With those words , tears streamed down her face . Her past life had taught her that being tolerant and yielding , playing the good - guy role , and doing good wouldn't save her . In the end , the Willard family still killed her . This time , she would let them savor every drop of the world's bitterness and darkness ! Tehila was never her rival , The only thing that made her feel threatened was that unattainable , illusory familial bond with the Willard family that she so desperately craved . In her past life , when she had just returned , everyone told her to give in to Tehila and not try to steal attention . But this time , she Chapter 2 Second Chance at Life would fight for everything and rip off Tehila's mask . The maid , kneeling on the ground , trembled with fear . She pleaded , " I'm Tila's mom . I didn't mean to back then …" " Oh , really ? If it wasn't intentional , why did I have to suffer for 22 years ? You didn't just switch me . You threw me into an orphanage and never raised me ! Yet my parents , kind as they are , chose not to blame you and even treat your daughter like a princess ! And now , you feel no guilt . Instead , you're shamelessly begging for mercy , counting on my dad's love for her ! If this gets out , our family will be a laughingstock ! " In her last life , Seryna had longed for the love of her biological parents . Stepping into this grand estate had stirred in her a fragile hope for family warmth , but in the end , everyone in this house let her down . Tehila leaned on Jennett , crying her eyes out . She was quite pretty , dressed in a high - end gown that accentuated her elegance . Her eyes were slightly swollen from crying . When Seryna looked at her , a flash of disdain and hatred crossed her eyes . The maid looked toward Devona , eyes full of desperate pleading . " Please , let me off . I … I know I was wrong ." Chapter 2 Second Chance at Life Devona was furious . " From what I see , you don't feel guilty at all ! You put Tehila into our family on purpose and wanted her to replace Seryna ! " Tehila's face drained of color . " Grandma , I didn't . I didn't think like that . It's her fault . You can punish her however you want . I don't want such a heartless mom . I only want my mom ." With that , she buried her face in Jennett's embrace and wept . The maid looked at Tehila with utter despair in her eyes , pain twisting her face . " Tehila , I've given you a life of luxury for over twenty years , and now , you won't even say a word to plead for me . You're utterly ungrateful and ruthless ! " Tehila shot her a cold , warning glance without saying anything . In the end , Devona called the police . The maid was taken away , and jail was her next stop . Devona said in a low , calm voice , " Alright , now our family is reunited ." Seryna walked over and held her arm , smiling brightly . " Grandma , let me show you my room . It'll give you peace of mind to see it . " The faces of the Willard family turned sour at this . Chapter 25 Second Chance at Life They had given Seryna a room in the attic . Devona smiled and gently patted her head . " Okay . I can feel relieved then . " She turned to Kolten . " Where's Seryna's s room ? "
