Ex-Wife Too Hard To Woo

In fact, it was not the whole story of his previous life in the present-day Sethaden’s dream.

The Great General of Hussar Sethaden Fitzgerald in Great Wei did not die.

Rachel’s sword did strike Sethaden directly in the heart. Besides, there was poison on the edge of the sword, which made him in critical condition.

Even though Freya was a skilled doctor, she could not keep him always safe and sound.

Even with her best efforts, Sethaden was still in dire danger. He would die at any time.

When Sethaden had fallen to the ground, Rachel was in excruciating pain. But under the extreme pain, an incredible thing happened.

The poisonous curse that had been planted in her body by Alexander at a cost of a large sum of money was lifted in an instant. After her sanity was restored, she tried everything to save Sethaden life.

When she was a child, she had heard a story from her mother, who said that on the mountain in the extreme east of Pingliang, there lived a Taoist master who was on the verge of becoming immortal; and in the hand of that master was a Sailor Pearl, which had the power to bring back the dead.

Rachel knew that it was just a legend and should not be taken as true.

She really wanted Sethaden to survive, so she went to the Mount Delusion regardless.

Throughout the ages, few had ever climbed up the Mount Delusion.

There was a saying in Pingliang that the road to the Mount Delusion was as hard as the blue sky to scale!

Rachel had seriously injured Sethaden, and both the Fitzgerald family and the soldiers under him were very unhappy with her.

However, Sethaden’s last words before he fell and people’s understanding made an easy passage for her through the road from the Great Wei State to the Mount Delusion.

In the past, Rachel had traveled far and wide. She had heard that it was extremely difficult to climb up the Mount Delusion. At that time, she only felt that it was an exaggeration. For a mountain, no matter how high it is, there will always be a way to reach the top.

But when she actually went to the place herself, she realized that it was even more difficult than those people had said.

There were only steep cliffs on the mountain. There were many times when Rachel felt that she would not be able to climb up, and that she would fall off the cliff and spurt blood everywhere.

But when she thought that if she could not hold on, Sethaden would never wake up again, she still gritted her teeth and moved on. Her hands were worn out and her thick cotton clothes were worn holes. She still clutched the sharp rocks in front of her and climbed up, one by one.

Perhaps when people want to do something so badly, their potential can be realized. When Rachel’s hands and feet were worn to the bone, she finally reached the top of the Mount Delusion and met the Daoist master who was on the verge of becoming immortal.

The Daoist was touched by her sincerity and gave her a Sailor Pearl.

However, people who reached the summit of the Mount Delusion would be cursed for disturbing the rest of the spiritual beasts at the top.

The curse was different for everyone.

Rachel was cursed because she disturbed the rest of the spirit beasts because of love, and her curse was related to love.

She would not live to be twenty years old unless the man she loved could truly and sincerely say to her, “I love you”.

Rachel didn’t really take it seriously.

She thought that since she and Sethaden were so in love, he had always been convinced of her. This time, she thought that he would also trust her if she gave him a reasonable explanation.

He looked as unfeeling as an iceberg, but in fact, he was the most cheesy and shameless men when facing her. If she made him happy, he would say “I love you”, not to mention saying it sincerely, even if he was asked to say it a thousand times, he would do it.

At that time, Rachel really thought that it was easy to get Sethaden to say “I love you” to her, but later she realized that some misunderstandings, once formed, were not that easy to be addressed.

She had spent almost all her life waiting for Sethaden to say “I love you” with all his heart and soul.

It was hard to climb up the mountain, but even harder to go down.

When Rachel had climbed up the mountain, she didn’t have to look at the cliffs beneath her, and she wasn’t so apprehensive.

But when it came to going down the mountain, she looked down and found there were cliffs and precipices beneath her feet. If she stepped on the wrong one accidentally, she would fall and be shattered to pieces.

Rachel’s hands and feet were worn to the bone. Moreover, it was so cold at the top of the mountain that she felt stiff and sore all over. She wanted to stop, but thinking that Sethaden was still waiting for her, she gritted her teeth and climbed down the mountain slowly.

At last, there was no more frost, and she could hear the birds and smell the flowers.

At last, the gurgling stream at the foot of the mountain was visible.

Rachel let out a long breath of relief as her legs went limp and she fell straight onto the soft grass.

Probably because she had lost too much blood, Rachel was dizzy and her vision was gradually becoming blurred.

She wanted to close her eyes and sleep through the night.

But, no, if she slept, Sethaden might not wake up after a long sleep.

“Miss Rachel.”

Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Rachel opened her eyes with difficulty.

Scarlet.

Feeling surprised, Rachel asked, “Scarlet, why did you come over?”

“I am here to help you deliver the Sailor Pearl to Young General.” Unlike her previous meekness, Scarlet’s voice carried a clear malice.

“Miss Rachel, this pearl is something that I, Scarlet, have got for Young General with extreme difficulty.”

Rachel was not stupid. She got what Scarlet wanted to do.

She held onto a stone on the side and reluctantly stood up from the grass, she looked at Scarlet with a wary expression, “Scarlet, this pearl is what I took from the Mount Delusion. I?? ll never give it to you.”

“Scarlet, behave yourself, I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you here. I have to go and save Sethaden.”

“Miss Rachel, do you think I will let you give the pearl to Young General since I’m here?!”

Scarlet stepped forward and then grabbed Rachel’s scarred wrist in a deadly grip.

“Let go!” Rachel’s voice was not loud and was still a little weak and feeble. However, as she had been in the top position for so long, her voice still carried an unruffled authority.

If it was in normal times, Rachel would have kicked Scarlet out. But at this time, she really couldn’t use any strength, she couldn’t even break Scarlet’s grip.

“Miss Rachel, I like Young General.”

Scarlet’s voice, sounded gentle to the point of being eerie, “The fact that you and Young General would suddenly faint before the big wedding has something to do with me.”

“Scarlet, you colluded with my father and that bastard Alfie?!”

“Yes, I have collaborated with them! But they didn’t keep their word! They promised me that if I could help them abduct you to that hotel, they wouldn’t let you succeed in marrying Young General. But I didn’t expect that they wanted Young General’s life!”

“No one can take Young General’s life! If Young General died, who will be with me for the rest of my life?!”

As she said that, a long, thin silver needle appeared in Scarlet’s hand like a trick. At the sight of this silver needle, Rachel’s brain went blank.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
