Chapter 915
When Robin was too shocked to accepi, Wendy extended her trembling hand, clutching at his clothes, “Robin, your mom wants to stick around a bit longer, so I need to fight to stay alive. You gotta help me out here I once had a nightmare about hell, and it was terrifying I don’t wanna end up there”
Robin stared at her pale face for a long time before slowly pushing her hand away. “Only people who’ve done a lot of bad stuff end up in hell, mam. You’re a good person, you won’t end up there..
Upon heanng this, Wendy’s hand, which had been reaching for Robin’s clothes, froze in mid air
Was she a good person?
No.
She’d done a lot of bad things
She was the one who fell for York Spencer first, but York Spencer was smillen with Vanya’s looks. He had even begged outside the Spencer family’s doorstep for three days and nights to marry Vanya. This had made her swallow her pride, so she intentionally got close to Vanya’s good friend, Evelyn, subtly encouraging Evelyn to run Vanya’s looks
Evelyn had hesitated before throwing the chemical on Vanya’s face. Fearing Evelyn would back out, Wendy had purposely bumped into her, ensuring the chemical splashed onto Vanya’s face. If this was ever accounted for, the demons of hell might come knocking on her door….
When Vanya came asking for money, it was Wendy who reminded their parents, saying that Vanya would rather take her grandfather’s inheritance and marry someone else than help them. She claimed Vanya was a disobedient daughter who wouldn’t repay the money even if they lent it to her, so they didn’t.
Despite Wendy’s questionable actions, there was a twist to her character When Vanya sought financial help from Wendy’s brother, Sheldon, he initially refused her but secretly sent her money through Wendy However, Vanya used the money to buy a designer bag for someone in the slums instead of using it for her own needs, betraying Sheldon’s trust. Unaware of this, Sheldon believed Vanya gave the money to someone else, which angered him When Vanya tragically died on the streets, Sheldon didn’t
bother to visit her.
Given Wendy’s wrongdoings, she didn’t believe she would escape punishment in the afterlife. She desperately clung to the desire to stay alive, reaching out to Robin and pleading. “Son, we have to try anyway, right? You can’t let me die, can you? This shows Wendy’s fear of facing the consequences and her desperate attempt to prolong her
life
Robin thought she had completely lost it, but he didn’t try to convince her anymore. He just nodded nonchalantly. “Alright, I promise you. I’ll bring her back…”
Leaving these words behind. Robin pushed her hand away and walked out.
Watching his retreating figure, Wendy was lost in thought.
Every time Robin left in the past, he would always tell her to rest well. This time, however, he didn’t say anything.
Was it because she had shown her true colors and disappointed her son?
But compared to staying alive, disappointing her son didn’t seem too bad. Once she managed to survive, she could always make up for it
As for her daughter…she would eventually become part of another family. Since it was bound to happen sooner or later, it wouldn’t hurt to let go a bit earlier.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
