Chapter 11 — The day I registered my marriage, I discovered that my husband had two lives

Or maybe... They still exist.

“What about her?”

I pointed towards To Uyen.

"My aunt" glanced at To Uyen.

“She's not you.”

She said calmly.

“She is the ‘consort node’ of another timeline.”

To Uyen was stunned.

“What did you just say?”

“Let me make it simpler.”

She shrugged.

“You are not a clone.”

“It's the person who is 'linked'.”

To Uyen's face immediately turned pale.

"Link?"

"That's right."

“Like a gateway.”

I frowned.

“Tell me more clearly.”

She looked at me. It's like I'm considering whether I can accept this truth or not. A few seconds later, she sighed softly.

"Okay."

“Then I'll start from the beginning.”

She walked to the table and picked up the paper that Lam Trach had just drawn on. Then draw a lot more lines on it.

“The so-called ‘time slice’ he just said is not wrong.”

“But that's just a surface-level explanation.”

She drew a circle.

“The real structure... is like this.”

Inside the circle, she divided it into many areas.

“Each area is a ‘segment of time’.”

“In every period of time... there is a girl.”

I stared at that diagram. My heart sank little by little.

“So why am I the seventh?”

“Because the previous six people…”

She stopped for a moment.

“They have all lost their effectiveness.”

My breathing stopped.

“Lack of validity?”

“Some people collapse.”

“Someone got withdrawn.”

“There are still people…”

She looked at me.

“In an unstable state.”

My throat was tight.

“So why do you still exist?”

She smiled softly.

“Because I'm more alert.”

“What about them?”

I pointed towards the two Lam Trach.

“They are the same.”

“They are all ‘executive entities’ in different time periods.”

“Comply with what?”

She looked at me. His eyes suddenly turned cold.

“Maintain this system.”

My heart suddenly shook.

“What system?”

She didn't answer directly. But turned to look at the two Lam Trach.

“Are you two still not going to talk until now?”

Lam Trach, wearing a suit, frowned.

“You shouldn't appear at this time.”

“But I showed up.”

She shrugged.

“Moreover…”

“She saw it too.”

She pointed towards me. Lam Trach, dressed in casual clothes, was silent for a while. Then he spoke up.

“If that's the case…”

“Then tell me everything clearly.”

I stared at them. At this point... On the contrary, I became even calmer. Because I know... The truth is about to be revealed.

“This is a project.”

Lam Trach said in casual clothes.

“What project?”

“Experiment to separate memory and life.”

He replied. I stopped. That phrase... So cold that it doesn't resemble something that exists in reality.

“Be more specific.”

He nodded.

“Simply put…”

“A human life is inherently a continuous line.”

“But if you take it apart…”

“Divided into many sections.”

“Then each segment can operate independently.”

I looked at him.

“And then what?”

“Then…”

“Each segment can choose a different life.”

He replied. I suddenly understood a part.

“Meaning…”

I said slowly.

“In each different time period... will you live a different life?”

He replied.

“What about us?”

“You are the carriers.”

he said. Those two words... Made my whole body cold. Not human. Which is just a tool.

“What about the baby?”

To Uyen suddenly suddenly spoke up. Her voice trembled.

“That child... was also part of the experiment?”

Both Lam Trach were silent. A few seconds later... Lam Trach, wearing a suit, spoke up.

“It's a data node.”

To Uyen's whole body staggered.

“What did you just say?”

“The baby…”

“It is used to verify ‘continuity’.”

He replied. Because I understand... I feel even more disgusted.

“I mean, I want to verify…”

I looked straight at him.

“Seeing versions of yourself in different time periods... can there be any ‘continuity’?”

He doesn't deny it. I suddenly burst out laughing. A smile cold to the bone.

“So you mean you can have many lives, many wives, even many children at the same time?”

He looked at me.
