The Ghost Mother's Mission

From the back cover

Six years after she broke up with Julian Thorne, a woman dies of overwork, leaving behind their five-year-old daughter. Julian, devastated, arranges her funeral and raises the girl with indulgent love. But the daughter resents him for her mother's death, and when she runs away with a gold-digger boyfriend, the System recalls the dead mother to set her straight.

Returning as a ghost, she finds her sixteen-year-old daughter, Lily Thorne, wrecking the living room while Julian, now in his forties, endures her cruelty. The girl throws his past poverty and the breakup in his face, and he can only bow his head. The System warns that if Lily falls pregnant, its points will be deducted to zero, and her stay is limited.

Watching Julian secretly touch an old photo of her, the ghost remembers their meeting in the talent market, their years together, and the eight million he gambled on an investment while she was pregnant. She no longer blames him. Now she must save the daughter who uses her dead mother as a shield.
