Chapter 6
The more I thought about it, the more terrified I became. I rushed to my computer and frantically searched for every piece of information about Theodore.
Finally, among numerous financial news articles, I found a report about his private life: [Three Christmases ago, Theodore Jones, President of Jones Group, lost his beloved girlfriend and first love Lucy Ross in a tragic car accident. The crash was extremely severe, leaving Lucy’s body completely mangled. Strangely, Lucy’s white toy poodle remained completely unharmed and even ran back to Jones Manor on its own after the accident.]
Reading this, my whole body trembled as everything finally became clear.
So three Christmases ago, after Lucy died, her soul didn’t dissipate but somehow became attached to her toy poodle. For the past three Christmases, Theodore had been trying to extract Lucy’s soul from the dog’s body.
If I wasn’t mistaken, both my past life self and Sofia in this life were candidates Theodore chose to draw out Lucy’s soul.
Transfer Lucy’s soul into a normal human body, then put that person’s soul into the toy poodle – that’s how he planned to achieve Lucy’s soul redemption.

Theodore was absolutely despicable!

But why did Theodore insist on holding a wedding? What was the ceremony meant to cover up?
After I hung up earlier, what had Sofia experienced? Had they already completed the soul swap?
I grew increasingly panicked, not knowing what to do.
Just then, my phone suddenly rang. It was Sofia calling.
Without hesitation, I hung up immediately. In this life, I’d hidden well enough and didn’t want any further involvement with them.
I then texted Zoe asking for time off, planning to take the entire Christmas break and go somewhere to lay low.
After sending the message, I quickly packed my luggage, preparing to book a flight and leave. But just as I was about to head out, the doorbell rang.
I froze, then hurried to check. The visitor was actually Sofia.
Sofia continued knocking expressionlessly. “Liliana, I know you’re in there. Open the door right now.”
I took a deep breath and said, “Sofia, aren’t you about to become Mrs. Jones? I won’t appear before you and make you unhappy.

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage.”

Hearing “congratulations on your marriage,” Sofia completely lost it and screamed, “Liliana, open this door right now! You scheming bitch, how dare you set me up! I know you were reborn too.
“No wonder you didn’t keep that toy poodle, didn’t steal my project, and didn’t even want Theodore. You knew all along that Theodore, that psycho, wanted to use my body. How dare you scheme against me! You’re absolutely disgusting!”

Hearing her getting more and more out of line, I knew this wouldn’t resolve anything. So I had no choice but to open the door and let her in.
Sofia’s eyes were filled with hatred as she rushed at me, trying to hit me. “It’s all your fault! All your fault, you bitch! You’re the one who tricked me into becoming Mrs. Jones. You knew the truth all along but didn’t tell me.”
Seeing her losing her mind, I lost my patience and pushed her hands away. “It’s your own greed. What does that have to do with me? Don’t go crazy in my place.”
“Going crazy?” Hearing my words, Sofia suddenly showed a sinister smile. She pulled out that white dress from her bag and tried to put it on me.
Then she shouted toward the door, “Mr. Jones, come quickly! I

caught Liliana. This time, your beloved woman can finally be saved.”
As soon as Sofia finished speaking, several men in black rushed in from outside. They quickly covered my mouth and nose with a towel, and I soon lost consciousness.
