"Of course, it wouldn't make sense to you. After all, you only know the story of the third life—the one before this one. To understand it, it will take time. It begins with the old woman of the Pierson family, Old Mrs. Pierson."
As ridiculous as it was, this man seemed to truly believe his story about lifetimes before the one Lola remembered.
According to him, it all started with Old Mrs. Pierson — Zoren's grandmother.
During her time, she was given away to a man like a commodity. Forced into a marriage she didn't want with an abusive husband, the young Mrs. Pierson tried her best to leave countless times. But every time, she would get dragged back by her husband—and even by her own family.
As an act of rebellion, she escaped once again. This time, she met a man. Given the circumstances she was in, she ended up sleeping with a stranger. Once the high faded and she realized what she had done, she slipped away, only to be found by her husband's men.
