Richest Mogul

Skylar wondered if Maxine had truly been reborn, just like she had. The only difference was the timing-Maxine had been reborn at this very moment.

If that were the case, it would be more complex to resolve.

"Ever since I learned about the existence of all sorts of negative items, I've always kept an open mind about these strange and unexplained phenomena. Still, the idea of rebirth-well, I've only ever seen it in novels. Does it happen in real life?

"I know rationally I shouldn't let it get to me. Emerson and I have been through so much together. After years of shared experiences and building a strong bond, we now have a son together. Our family is harmonious and happy.

"But... I can't seem to find peace. This voice inside me keeps whispering what if what she's saying is true?"

Minerva's complexion had paled, her doubt taking its toll. The constant thoughts weighed on her, flashing unwelcome images in her mind.

She could almost picture Emerson and Maxine together. Their eight-year age gap between them didn't seem to matter. He doted on her.

Maxine, an emerging star in the entertainment industry, had undeniable talent and charisma. She also had the strong backing of influential elders, ensuring her journey in the field was smooth and untroubled.

Minerva even recalled a story she had once heard from Emerson's friend when she and Emerson were still just acquaintances. He had mentioned a younger woman who used to adore Emerson and had even declared she would marry him when she grew up. Their families had always seen it as an ideal match, believing Emerson's lack of romantic entanglements in those years was due to his quiet waiting for his childhood sweetheart.

In the end, Minerva ended up winning Emerson over. At that time, Minerva had laughed it off as a silly joke and hadn't given it a second thought.

Yet Maxine's recent claims dredged up those memories with startling clarity.

Skylar's expression grew thoughtful and serious as she quietly mulled things over.

Seeing her silence, Minerva felt a pang of unease. "Do you think there's a chance she's telling the truth?"

"We can't be sure yet. There are countless mysteries in this world, things we might never fully understand. However, one thing you can be certain of is that your relationship with Emerson is built on years of shared experiences and genuine emotions. "You're married now, with a son, and your bond is solid. That isn't something anyone can erase or undermine with a few careless words," Skylar said firmly.

Perhaps meeting Maxine in person would help her understand this better. For now, they could only speculate.

Minerva's tense expression

softened. She nodded faintly. "You're

bet

right. What we've been through togethers real. If someone truly can be reborn, then so be it. Why should I exhaust myself worrying over things that haven't even happened yet?"

"Maxine... It sounds so familiar," Skylar murmured, her brow furrowing slightly. The name sparked a faint familiarity in her mind, though she couldn't pinpoint why.

She was sure she had never met Maxine or crossed paths with her directly, yet the name echoed faintly in her memory.

Minerva said, "You must have heard

of her. Recently, she starred in a web

series that became a massive hit. She's really popular right now. I heard she's currently filming a new show, playing the second female lead. The male lead is Charles."

Skylar immediately understood. "Ah, that explains it. I remember seeing some photos from the launch event for my brother's new show. They mentioned the cast, and Maxine was one of them. No wonder hername sounded familiar."

If that was the case, it might be worth reaching out to Charles to learn more about Maxine.noveldrama

She had been reborn for so long-several years had already passed. During these years, she experienced things she could never have imagined in her previous life.

The inexplicable negative items she had encountered were just one example things she had never come across in her previous life.

If she could return to rewrite her destiny, it seemed entirely possible that others could too. The thought unsettled her. Perhaps there were more people like her, given another chance to alter their fates. The realization weighed heavily on her. A faint unease crept into her chest, intangible but insistent.

...

On the drive back to Galaxy Villa, Skylar decided to call Charles. Fortunately, he wasn't on set and was enjoying a break.

"It's been a whole month since you last called me. Miss me already?" Charles teased, his voice light and cheerful.
