Waking Up From A Dream, The Person Beside My Pillow Was No Longer There

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

“You’re such an old-fashioned person. You still wear the same shirt you bought in the first year of college even after graduation. You liked someone from when you were sixteen, and you still like them ten years later. Quach Phuong, be selfish for once. If anyone says you’re not good, I’ll fight them for you. If it weren’t for you, I would have fed that bastard Tan Duat to the wolves. You’re so good, if he doesn’t love you, he should have at least returned you to me.” Lam My cried as she spoke, her chest heaving.

Quach Phuong did not react, a faint smile still hung on her lips. She felt very tired, and simply wanted to sleep.

“Lam My, being able to be Tan Duat’s wife in this life means that my wish has been fulfilled. I have no regrets, nor do I hope for anything more. That’s enough.” Quach Phuong closed her eyes, and quietly fell asleep beside Lam My.

Lam My covered her mouth with her hand, trying to contain her sobs.

Quach Phuong, in your next life, don’t be a daughter of the Ngo family, and don’t be Tan Duat’s wife. You can become a flower, or even a blade of grass, as long as you’re at peace, free of any sorrow or suffering.

Okay, so I actually never write reviews but THIS, this tops the cake on one of my very favorite novels. Even though MC dies, it's so sweet and the payback is even sweeter. Like the saying, "You Never Know What You Have Untill It's Gone." : MC parents didn't know, husband didn't know, hell even the one who was she switched at bitrh with didn't know. But by the end MCs death left everything in shambles, truly deserved.

There is no regret pill in this world. And that is what all of them had to understand the hard way.

FL might be the most pitiful person but when you read the POV of the 2nd ML, he’s also pitiful. It’s just that the FL’s life, even for her, was so miserable. Its not enough to be switched at birth, not favored, not loved, but why does she have to have a. Serious illness too? I mean isn’t that too much? Its like she was born to die with... more>> pain. Its tragic yet realistic.

and I think the husband, who fell for her after, if you think about it, he may fell for nan ting more because he taught all those things were done by nan ting when it fact it was the FL all along.

Just like he said, something you dont have seems perfect, but once you have it, it shatters your ideals and she’s just ordinary. Its the classic tale of what you dont have will always be the best. Ridiculous. Really. <<less

Quach Phuong (FL) had a tragic life. Being swapped by birth & having bad childhood life while growing up in orphanage until being discovered when she's already 18yo. The fact that she didn't receive love from biological parents as they preferred their other daughter and having her unrequited love... then terminal illness happened.

Due to this, I can't think of her as weak for pursuing love bc she only wanted to grasp it after her past experiences. She even tried to moved on but marriage arrangement happened. Actually, she's very brave,... more>> positive and mentally strong. Her only downside is being too much of people pleaser (which result from her childhood too)

The side stories also gave POVs of other characters. Idk feels satisfying to see them suffer regret esp the husband and bio family. (except 2nd lead, he was so good albeit coward on confessing to FL)

As said, there are so many "what ifs"... Being one step too late meant missing out for a lifetime. <<less

Damn it, wasn't planning on crying over this story and leaving a review. It's a pretty tragic story, but realistic and thorough. Everything was tied together well, and the MC gets the well-deserved rest she needed. Everyone left behind got what they deserved and paid for it with their guilt and regret.

I'm not one to leave reviews, but I'm going to do so for this story. It's a tragic story, which is what I was looking for, but not a s*upid tragedy, you get the feeling that everything had to be like that. Would I have liked a miracle for FL? Yes. But I'm happy, she suffered a lot, she deserved to rest. I am very happy with the compensation, they did not deserve it and now they are paying for it.
