Son persuaded her husband to bring the bereaved ex-lover back home. After I calmly left, they went crazy

Cora is a strategist sent into another world to save the antagonist Nolan and his family from destroying themselves over the heroine. She becomes Nolan's second wife and raises his son Jasper and her own son Declan with devotion, steering both toward promising futures. Yet once the widowed heroine Lydia appears, the father and sons she saved turn on her, urging her to be generous as they prepare to bring Lydia into the family as its heiress.

On the day of Nolan's wedding to Lydia, Cora does not cause a scene. She summons the long-silent System and asks to leave this world, then lets herself fall into the icy river. Jasper drags her back, furious that she would ruin Lydia's special day, and Declan greets her with cold indifference, calling her act a woman's trick. Even when she slams her head against the doorpost, she wakes again beneath a chandelier, her time in her original world running short.

Now Nolan grips her hand, warning her to stop fooling around, while her remaining time slips away.
