Chapter 328 Experiencing Death Over And Over Again
“Alice attempts suicide every year. I’ve lost count of how many times it’s been.”
Seth’s words reverberated in Isabella’s ears, causing her to furrow her brow and
momentarily cease her wailing. “What?”
Seth sat down beside her, peering inside. “That’s what the village doctor said.”
Isabella found it hard to believe. “How is that possible? She doesn’t seem like…”
“Those who are desperate to live can only repeatedly experience death, using their fear
of it to strengthen their courage to keep living.” Seth finished slowly, reiterating the
village doctor’s words. “Apparently, she always uses charcoal but always leaves herself
an escape route.”
Isabella still didn’t comprehend. “What do you mean by leaving an escape route? We

just happeríed to be there. Alice was really close to dying.”
Seth replied, “That pot of charcoal fire wasn’t enough to produce lethal carbon
monoxide.”
Isabella fell silent. She recalled Alice’s profile. This elderly woman was once a top
student at the University of Causton and was full of knowledge. Calculating the air
conditions in a room wouldn’t be a difficult task for her.
Experiencing death over and over again… It was an indescribable feeling, making it hard
for her to breathe. Isabella lowered her head, murmuring, “I’m also to blame provoked
her. She’s already having a hard enough time living, yet I went and upset he
gem.” She covered her face with her hands, but they wouldn’t stop trembling.
Seth sat quietly beside her, not uttering a word for a long while.
After a moment, he finally spoke. “Forget about the gem.”

Isabella looked up, slightly surprised. “What?”
“When Alice wakes up, we’ll go back to Imperia.”
Isabella turned her face, her gaze fixed on Seth, scrutinizing his expression. He had
previously mentioned forgetting about the gem, but it was always due to
circumstances and clearly a temporary abandonment. However, in this moment,
Isabella could sense that he genuinely no longer desired it. She stared at him for a long
time, her eyes vacant.
Seth raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone nonchalant. “Don’t worry, you’ll still receive
your reward.”
Isabella pouted. “It’s not about the reward.”
Seth glanced at her. “Are there moments when you don’t care about money?”

Isabella lowered her head, remaining silent. There was commotion from inside the
village doctor’s office, and the doctor emerged to speak.
“Alice is awake.”
Isabella quickly stood up, eager to go in and see Alice. She took a step forward but then
hesitated.
Seth clicked his tongue, giving her a push from behind. “What are you afraid of?”
Isabella turned to glare at him, then turned back with newfound courage. She took a
deep breath and entered slowly.
Inside the small room, Alice lay quietly on the bed, gazing at the ceiling light. Upon
seeing Isabella enter, she turned her face and offered a faint smile. “Scared you, didn’t

Isabella shook her head, then said, “I’m sorry..
Alice appeared weak, struggling to raise her hand. “You can’t be blamed…”
Isabella approached, feeling an overwhelming sense of guilt. “I was too harsh.”
“But you were telling the truth.” Alice’s voice was calm, her breaths coming out in This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
gasps. “He really… was irresponsible… If you want that d*mn stone, just take it.”
Isabella was taken aback. She looked up in disbelief, opening her mouth but not
knowing what to say.
Alice observed her expression and said, “It’s not anything valuable. No one would care
if it was thrown in a wheat field.” With that, she paused, looking at Isabella. “But if it’s a
gift for a loved one, then it can be considered beautiful.”
