Chapter 4
The entire living room fell into deathly silence.
After a long while, Harvey chuckled softly, as if nothing had happened.
He spoke up: “I was just joking with you earlier.
“You always tell me you can hear Violet’s thoughts. In this day and age, everyone believes in science. How could something like that possibly happen? So I thought I’d give you a little scare too.
“But from now on, you’re not allowed to use that excuse to make up lies about Violet anymore. I know exactly what kind of person she is.”
After saying this, he began urging Ruby to leave.
Hearing his explanation, Ruby let out a long sigh of relief. Then she seemed somewhat unwilling to let it go, as if she wanted to say something more.
After hesitating for a moment, she ultimately chose to remain silent and quietly left.
However, her eyes were filled with jealousy and resentment.
What no one expected was that as soon as Ruby left, Harvey grabbed my hand.

He carefully observed my expression, then asked with feigned casualness: “Honey, do you believe that telepathy really exists in this world?”
I froze, staring at him wide–eyed as I smacked his arm. “What are you talking about? Are you going to tell me you know what I’m thinking?
“Then tell me, what am I thinking right now?”
As soon as I said this, I immediately thought to myself: “Did this car accident damage Harvey’s brain? What on earth is he thinking?”
Then I watched Harvey’s face visibly darken. He said: “My car accident injured my hand, not my brain.”
Hearing his words, I looked at him in horror. Then I covered my face with my hands, repeating over and over in my mind: “Impossible, this is absolutely impossible.”
Immediately after, Harvey pulled me into his arms.
Harvey’s hand gently patted my back, carefully comforting me. “Now can you believe me? It’s not just me–Jackson and Ruby can both hear your thoughts and your sister’s.”
At this point, Harvey paused, then continued: “I suspect this might be related to the blood transfusion. Before Jackson and I

received the transfusion, it didn’t matter what you two were thinking. But around Ruby, you both need to be extremely careful,”
After saying this, Harvey let out a deep sigh.

He truly lived up to his reputation as a man who had risen to the rank of Navy Captain at such a young age–his insight was remarkably sharp.
The truth I only discovered on my deathbed in my previous life, he had already figured out.
I looked at him with a confused expression and asked: “Why would Ruby do this? Does she have some kind of problem with me?”
Harvey’s arms tightened around me.
It was just like in my previous life–whenever I tried to explain something, he never gave me the chance.
Actually, we were just having ordinary marital arguments, which was a normal part of adjusting to each other.
In my heart, I hoped he would come and comfort me. But Ruby told him that I would never forgive him, even in death, and that I wanted him to stay away from home and preferably die out there.

So the misunderstandings between us kept piling up.
In the end, it wasn’t just Sofia and I who were destroyed- Harvey and Jackson didn’t fare well either.
