- 10.
I stormed off, but Ethan caught up and suddenly grabbed me in a hug.
He held on so tight I couldn’t break free.
“Please don’t go. I’m begging you, save me.”
“The doctors said I don’t have much time
left.”
I shoved him off and slapped him hard across
the face

“Ethan, your pathetic act is disgusting!”
“I heard it with my own ears! You
orchestrated the soul swap with Claire. You
knew she had stomach cancer!”
“You wanted me to die in her body, so now, I
want you to die!”
Thud. He suddenly fell to his knees.
“I was wrong! I’ll switch you back, okay? I’ll
switch you back!”
Hearing that, I hesitated.
If I switched back, what would happen to Kai?
But he’s always loved Claire.

“Fine,” I agreed.
He immediately took me to his place and had
me stand inside a machine.
He’d tied Claire up and brought her there.
“Ethan, you’re a monster!” Claire screamed.
“You promised you’d love me forever! Now
you’re switching me back?”
As Ethan pushed her into another machine, he said, “I’ve realized now. The person I truly love is Jade. If you hadn’t stolen her body, I
wouldn’t have given you a second glance.”
