The Day I Died, He Married Her

Chapter 24

He drove away every male spirit around me.

One by one, my little boyfriends came crying to complain, accusing Ethan of cruelty and heartlessness.

I had no choice but to comfort them, but by the time I finished, my soul had dimmed from exhaustion.

Then Ethan chased after them again, kicking them away with a furious glare.

Listening to their pained wails, I sighed. "Ethan, you should go back where you belong."

He looked at me with wounded eyes. "Rachel... I'm dead."

I shook my head. "No, you're not."

"Your obsession is too strong—your soul has left your body."

"Be good and go back."

Instead, he's grown close to the Grim Reapers.

These past few days, I've built a good relationship with them.

After my death, Ethan burned countless treasures for me in the underworld.

Now, I'm the wealthiest wandering spirit down here.

I've spoiled them generously, and in return, they're happy to share some insider information.

They told me Ethan's time isn't up yet—his soul has simply left his body.

But if he doesn't return within seven days, he'll truly die.

I sigh.

My dear Ethan… Why is he being so foolish?

I went to great lengths to beg Ethan Winters to return to the living world.

I even resorted to using my charms.

But I never expected he would still die.

He appeared in Mrs. Winters' dream, telling her how happy we were together in the afterlife, and begged her to remove his life support.

And just like that, he became a wandering spirit like me.

I was furious, screaming at him.

"Ethan Winters! You liar!"

"When you were alive, you stubbornly broke up with me, and now you won't listen to me even in death! You'd rather die to keep me company? You're driving me insane!"

He looked at me with pitiful eyes. "Rachel, I'm sorry."

At this point, I had no choice but to accept reality.

"Now that we're here, can you finally tell me why you forced that breakup back then?"

He stayed silent for a long time before answering, "This secret… I'll tell you when we reincarnate. Okay?"

Enraged, I kicked at him. "Ethan Winters! You absolute jerk!"
