Mother-in-law Wants to Change the Fate of the Whole Family1

In my previous life, my mother-in-law Lauren Hanson dressed my son in a black fur vest.

I thought that the vest looked filthy, and I wasn't sure what material it was made of, so I feared it might cause illness.

But she insisted, "I spent a lot of money consulting a master. If he wears it for a full month, our whole family will change our fate."

I refused firmly, and she kicked me out of the house.

A month later, when I returned, her entire family was dead.

My newborn child, still trapped in that vest, was covered in thick black fur.

Panicking, I rushed him to the hospital to figure out what was wrong.

He became violent and, with a mouth full of irregular sharp teeth, tore open my throat.

When I woke up, I was back at the moment Lauren pulled out the vest.

"Yaritza, bring the baby over. Let me measure him, and see how the vest fits."

Lauren said, holding up the black-fur vest. A disgusting, rancid stench hit my nose.

Everything was exactly as it had been before.

My husband Rowan Gilbert grimaced and pinched his nose. "Mom, where did you get that thing?"
