After Rebirth, I Discovered My Son's Secret Chapter 1

I was diagnosed with cancer, and my son's gold-digging girlfriend immediately took all our family's money. She even declared that it was all her money, and I couldn't spend a penny of it even if I died on the street. This ultimately caused me to miss the best treatment opportunity, and my condition worsened, leaving me with little time left.

Filled with grief and anger, I pulled her down with me as I jumped off a building to our deaths. When I opened my eyes again, I had traveled back in time to when I first met the gold-digging girlfriend. Surprisingly, I could even hear her thoughts. It was then that I discovered the gold-digger wasn't her at all.

"Jack said his mom wouldn't even look at a bracelet under 5.000, but the one I bought was only 800.Still, it took me an entire semester of part-time work to save up for it. I gave it to her a few days ago, but I haven't seen his mom wearing it. I guess she really doesn't like what I got her."

Emma's voice drifted into my ears, broken and intermittent.

I opened my eyes to see the familiar scene of my home, realizing I had traveled back in time. I had returned to the moment when my son Jack first introduced his girlfriend Emma to me.

In my previous life, this gold-digging princess had taken control of Jack's salary before they even got married. She also used the excuse that it was customary in her hometown to give a $200,000 wedding gift, forcing us to sell our house to raise the money for her.

As a result, when I was diagnosed with cancer, there was no money left for treatment. I wanted to negotiate with her to return some of the money for my treatment, promising to repay her later. But she flatly refused and even had Jack tell me, "All the money in your family is my money. Your mother's life isn't worth saving. Even if she dies on the street, she can't spend a penny of my money."

Because of her insistence on not giving me any money, I missed the best treatment opportunity, and my early-stage cancer progressed to late-stage. Looking at my limited time left, I was overcome with grief and anger. When she came to visit me, I pulled her down with me as I jumped off the building.

But I never expected to travel back in time.

In a daze, I heard her speaking. What bracelet? What did she mean?

I looked up, staring at the slightly nervous Emma in front of me, and that voice sounded again:

"Auntie is looking at me so seriously, is she dissatisfied with me? I shouldn't have listened to Jack when he said it would be embarrassing to give it to her in person and insisted on giving it in advance. If I had known, I would have asked my parents for some money to buy a bigger one. Now Auntie must think I don't take her seriously."

Emma didn't open her mouth, but that voice kept coming.

Could it be her thoughts?

But when did she ever give me a bracelet?

In my previous life, she had been putting me down since a month before we met.

She said she wouldn't eat fruit that cost less than $5 a pound, wouldn't eat at restaurants below five-star level, and even the slippers for entering the house had to be celebrity-endorsed limited editions. And when she left, I had to give her gifts.

As for her? She never spent a penny, and even the gifts she gave me were supermarket freebies.

Just as I was puzzled, Emma looked at Jack and suddenly stood up, saying she needed to use the bathroom.

After she entered the bathroom, Jack anxiously pulled me aside: "Mom, why are you just sitting there when we first meet? Why haven't you given her the welcome gift? Emma is already unhappy."

"And these fruits and dishes, they're not what Emma asked for, right? Aren't you obviously putting her down?"

I was stunned.

Jack had said the same thing to me in my previous life, and I immediately felt that Emma was too materialistic and not a good girl.

This led to my strong prejudice against her later.

But according to Emma's thoughts just now, she doesn't seem to have this intention at all?
