Megan Hurley orchestrated a bullying scheme to drive a wedge between me and my childhood friend, Eugene. I fell into her trap as she intended, but only saved Eugene Carson. The thugs she hired, however, proved reckless. As a result, she accidentally died. This enraged Eugene to the point of hatred. He was convinced I had set up the bullying that led to Megan's death. On our wedding anniversary, he pushed me off a high building, his face twisted with relentless fury. "This is what you owe me and Megan. Sherlyn, you deserve to die!" When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day of the bullying. This time, I didn't intervene. Later, he knocked on my window in the rain, saying hoarsely in despair, "Sherlyn, why do you no longer care about me?"
View MoreAfter I rejected him, Eugene went back to Megan.He thought that Megan was responsible for his downfall and therefore ought to take care of him.But after some time, he discovered Megan chatting with another man online and intending to leave him for that man.In a fit of rage, Eugene accidentally killed Megan.In the footage of his arrest, Eugene, holding a sharp knife, knelt on the ground muttering, "Darling, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I've avenged you..."After watching the news, my classmates commented with emotions in the group chat."Has Eugene gone mad? Whom was he avenging?""Alas, they were so deep in love before. How did it end like this?""The young love turned into hatred at last.""Besides, their relationship started with Megan's deception."The truth was simple. To the past Eugene, Megan was like a flower in his dull life. He loved her, yet she was unattainable. To him, Megan was like a flower blooming in the mud.Even knowing it was an elaborate ruse, he couldn't im
"It was all a scheme I concocted to get you."A dull thunderclap sounded outside the window. In the light, Eugene's face looked even paler.Everyone was stunned into silence. It seemed no one had expected such a dramatic turn.Eugene stumbled backward as if a thought struck him. He suddenly looked up at me, his lips trembling uncontrollably, his face etched with boundless remorse.The truth was revealed with such ease and drama.Yet, all I felt was sorrow. Such a foolish and naive trick had inflicted such profound suffering upon me. How tragic and laughable.I stared at Eugene expressionlessly and asked softly, "Is this the love you tried to get even at the cost of our lives?"Eugene's face was drained of color instantly. Bowing his head, he shed a tear, asking me gently, "Sherlyn, did it hurt at that time?"My breath caught. I thought, "Did it hurt? I witnessed my loved ones kneeling, pleading, and dying. And I was betrayed and abused to death by the one I loved. That suffocat
Eugene grew more agitated as he spoke. In the end, he shouted, "You owe us, so why don't you help my family?"I did help them. But what did I get in return? My family was destroyed.I clenched my fists, unable to contain myself, and blurted out, "On what grounds?"In my previous life, after Eugene learned of Megan's death, his attitude towards me changed drastically. He began to ardently pursue me.Looking at his affectionate demeanor, coupled with years of feelings for him, I impulsively accepted his proposal. Little did I expect that this step would lead me straight into the abyss.Remembering the gruesome scene before my father's death, I struggled to suppress my anger. "On what basis must I save you two? And why should I help your family? Are you and your family, along with Megan, nothing but parasites living on me alone?"Eugene was taken aback by my fierce rebuttal, his face turning crimson with frustration.15He opened his mouth several times, about to say something, bu
Megan looked up at me with a hidden smirk in her eyes. I had known since my previous life that Megan always hated me because I excelled academically, came from a good family, and had good looks, while she had nothing else to boast about except her face.What bothered her the most was that she was a needy student receiving financial aid. Therefore, she couldn't wait to see me fail.Unable to do anything directly to me due to my background, she resorted to Eugene.Getting Eugene on her side would not only allow her to climb up the social ladder as she imagined but also crush my spirit severely.Unfortunately, Eugene was completely unaware of this.I didn't bother listening to her nonsense and simply stared at her, asking, "Was it really me who hired those people to attack you two?"A fleeting nervousness flashed across Megan's face, but she quickly regained her composure. "Who else could it be?"I smiled at Megan, and the brighter my smile, the more panicked her face became.Ho
My deskmate leaned in with a curious expression. "You're not going to meddle with Eugene again, are you?"I tapped her head with my pen and said firmly, "Rest assured. I'll never concern myself with him again."10In the evening, Jaycee knocked on my door with disheveled hair and a haggard look.As soon as she saw me, she grabbed my hand. "Sherlyn, you and Eugene are childhood sweethearts. He listens to you. Could you please help me persuade him? Please, I'm begging you. Eugene's future can't be ruined like this!"I almost laughed. In my previous life, I was devoted to helping Eugene because of my affection for him.Eugene had also garnered many honors with my help. In the end, he not only fulfilled his childhood dream of becoming a musician but also became the esteemed CEO, backed by my family's resources.Yet, before he killed me, he repeatedly said to me, "What good are all these without Megan?"His eyes were filled with hatred for me. "Sherlyn, I really hate you! Every mome
8After the farce ended, I stayed home for three days at my father's request.During this time, Eugene kept reaching out to me. He called me, but I didn't answer, so he called my father instead.But my father didn't take his calls either. After that, Eugene kept standing outside our house for three nights.On the third evening, it was drizzling.Eugene remained rooted to the spot, soaking wet but unmoving. Frustrated, I reluctantly got dressed and went downstairs.The moment he saw me, his eyes lit up, and he flashed me a smile. "Sherlyn, you're finally willing to see me."I dodged his attempt to hold my hand, saying in a flat tone, "Eugene, no matter what you do, I'm determined to call off our engagement.""Sherlyn, have you fallen for someone else?" Eugene choked out, his hands by his side clenched into fists.It seemed like he was bearing a great injustice.Looking at Eugene like this, I couldn't help but feel amused. He was always like this, wanting to keep his options op
"Mr. Tanner, sorry for disturbing you. Let's just leave it at that." Eugene then turned to me with a faint smile. "Sherlyn, stop it. I'm not going to hold you accountable."I thought, "Ugh, how did I not see through his act in my previous life?" I felt a wave of nausea. "Eugene, what gives you the right to hold me accountable? And who said I was trying to prove my innocence?"Without hesitation, I called the police and stated firmly, "Sir, I've been assaulted at school. I need help."Upon hearing this, Jaycee stared at me in disbelief, her face livid with anger. "Sherlyn, why are you like this now?"She said the same thing to me in my past life.After Eugene suppressed my family in my previous life, I barged into their home to seek Jaycee's help. But she ignored our past friendship, saying calmly, "You made Eugene lose his beloved girl. He hates you, and I naturally can't help you. Besides, Sherlyn, why are you like this now? You broke into our home without any manners."This tim
That was truly hateful and ridiculous. I laughed at Eugene for degrading to the point of loving a scheming woman who tried to destroy everything he had. I laughed at myself even more, for not misjudging people and thus bringing harm to my family. Ignoring the pain radiating through my body, I gritted my teeth and pushed myself up, leaning on the window ledge. As I approached Eugene, I suddenly leaped forward and bit his ear. Eugene, enraged by my action, kicked me viciously on the foot. A piercing pain shot through my ankle, and I stumbled back a few steps. Suddenly, my body was suspended in mid-air, plummeting downwards... In a daze, I saw Eugene give me a cold, mocking smile. "Sherlyn, this is your karma! If there's a next life, I'll definitely correct my mistake and never let go of Megan again. As for you, go to hell and reunite with your damn father!' 4The pain of my bones shattering and piercing through my internal organs pulled at my nerves. The sensation of falling
1On our wedding anniversary, Eugene tied me up on the rooftop of an unfinished building.He sat calmly before me, playing a video with deliberate slowness.In the video, my father knelt repeatedly, begging Eugene for my sake.My eyes burned with rage, but Eugene kicked me violently, snapping, "Do you feel distressed seeing your father like this? But how can it compare to even a fraction of the sorrow I felt when I lost Megan?"The sudden pain caused me to arch my back, and darkness clouded my vision, almost sending me into unconsciousness, yet I was powerless to scream.Earlier, Eugene had silenced me with boiling oil, turning my breath into a torment.The pleasure of making me suffer was evident on Eugene's face.He grasped my chin, his eyes bloodshot, his hatred brimming. "Sherlyn, how could you be so despicable as to have Mega bullied to death? Sherlyn, why didn't you die instead of her?"He shouted the last line, roaring like a beast at me."Megan?" I thought, struggling
