My fiancé and brother hated me for ten years. They firmly believed I had bullied their beloved Linda Lowe. At my engagement party, they exposed my crimes to the world. "She's nothing but a bully who tormented her classmate!" In the viral livestream video, Linda smiled through tears: "I've already forgiven her." "What's done is done. The past is behind us now" She became an overnight sensation. Meanwhile, I was condemned by thousands, attacked with acid by fanatic fans, and in despair, I took us both down together. When I opened my eyes again, I was back in my senior year of high school. Linda was pouring water over her own head while smiling, asking me, "Have you thought about how you'll apologize to me?" I lost it right there. Grabbing her by the hair, I dragged her into the bathroom, shoving her head into the toilet. "Let me show you what real bullying looks like. Since your mouth is so filthy, make sure to wash it clean before you go telling tales."

I guessed right. "Shawn, Dad always said I don’t act like his daughter. He shaped you into a ruthless tyrant who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, ignoring both law and morality. Luckily for me, I’m nothing like him."The second person I visited was Linda. Her hair was disheveled, her face haggard, and her gaze burned with hatred so fierce it seemed like she wanted to devour me. She could no longer fake her delicate, innocent persona. Her voice cracked with hysteria as she demanded to know why I hadn’t revealed the evidence earlier. “What's the point of pretending to lose?”"Oh, it's totally worth it. Otherwise, how would you have kept up the act for so long?" I stood up, smiling faintly. "It’s even more satisfying to let you think you’ve won, don’t you think?" I could’ve released the evidence earlier, but that would have been boring. I wanted her to believe she had won, that she had everything she’d ever dreamed of. Then, just before dawn, I wanted her to wat

Then came a series of explosive videos: The first showed footage from my 18th birthday party. The next video revealed security camera footage of Linda staging an incident—jumping off the rooftop herself and framing another orphan girl for pushing her, all to secure funding.Then, there was proof of Shawn’s hired assassins. Not just the failed attempt on Zoe’s life, but countless shady dealings he and my father orchestrated behind the scenes to grow the Wood Corporation, including stealing projects through underhanded methods. And finally, a damning revelation of how Alec emotionally manipulated his own mother for seven years, driving her to take her own life in front of his father. Her death bought him a place in the Rivers family. I poured money into compiling these truths, connecting the dots across my past and present lives. Piece by piece, I brought them to light, plastering everything across the trending charts. Thanks to their earlier moves, the public was already eng

On set, in the dressing room, another actress was adjusting her makeup in the mirror when Linda suddenly stumbled toward her.Grabbing the actress’ hand, she slapped herself across the face.Then, under the stunned gaze of the actress, Linda smiled and said, “Who gave you permission to compete with me for the role I wanted? And you think I’d agree to play the supporting role?“Do you even know who my boyfriend is? He’s Shawn Wood, CEO of the Wood Corporation.“When he sees the marks on my face, you’d better think carefully about how to apologize to me. “No, scratch that, you should think about what you’ll do when footage of you ‘bullying’ me on set goes public and your career is ruined. What’s your backup plan for survival then?”Her eyes dropped to the other actress’ chest as she smiled with sinister intent.“No!!”Linda screamed and lunged toward the screen, trying in vain to block the video, but it was too late.The fans at the event erupted into chaos.In the uproar, both Linda’s

The company’s stock price plummeted for several consecutive days. A few partners called, politely inquiring about what was going on. I knew that if I didn’t give them a satisfactory answer, the collaborations would be at risk of falling apart. "Just wait a little longer," I said with a smile, twirling the pen in my hand as I deflected. "We’re all businesspeople here—you know better than to make a move without absolute certainty." Fortunately, Linda wasn’t as patient as I’d anticipated. Her hatred for me burned even deeper than it had in my previous life. Seeing my reputation take a hit, she seized the opportunity and jumped into the fray. During a livestream, she brought up the scandal. "I remember back then," she began, her voice steady but laced with a hint of vulnerability. "The teacher asked me to read aloud in class. I went to a rural elementary school where one teacher had to cover multiple subjects, including teaching their own broken English." She let out a sel

This was something I’d never experienced in my previous life, not even after winning three Best Actress awards. "At the end of the day, it’s all about controlling the resources,” I mused, raising my glass of red wine with a wry smile. Rachel turned to me, giving me a once-over. "How is it that you’ve only been gone for four years, yet you seem like you’ve matured by a whole decade?" "Well, isn’t it normal?" I replied. "At eighteen, I could get away with acting recklessly and blaming it on youth and ignorance. But now that I’ve graduated, if I want to show my fangs, I at least need to fake some decorum first." With that, I raised the paddle in my hand. "Four hundred thousand dollars." Sitting in the front row, Linda whipped her head around to look at me.Alec, seated beside her, also turned, his gaze meeting mine. For a moment, his expression flickered, almost distracted. I caught a glimpse of the faint scar on his forehead, and the sight amused me more than I expected

In my previous life, I once overheard Linda asking Shawn how he managed to keep someone as talented as Harold under his thumb. At the time, Shawn had his arm around her as they sat by the pool. He chuckled at her question and replied, “Because he needs something from me.” However, I realized something far more significant. In my previous life, I had never even heard of Zoe. …I found a way to meet Zoe. She agreed to meet at a coffee shop far from her university. When she arrived, she sat across from me and got straight to the point. “Miss Wood, I know why you’re here, but my work is not for sale.” “Why not?” She hesitated briefly before speaking. “Because right now, it’s only a prototype.” The motion of lifting my coffee cup to my lips froze mid-air. “I understand that businesspeople like yourself only care about its commercial value, but I don’t. “What matters to me is the end result—what it can achieve and how it can revolutionize technology for humanity. That

Over the next five years, Shawn gradually and completely took control of the Wood Corporation. Using the money my mom gave me, I invested in the stock market. Leveraging fragments of memory from my past life, I multiplied the startup funds several times over. Meanwhile, at school, I threw myself into an accelerated course load to fast-track my degrees, all while investing in a few companies that, in my previous life, would eventually join the Fortune 500. At the time, most of them were still in their early stages.During this time, Rachel contacted me often. Like clockwork, she’d call every week to update me. She’d start by saying how much the girls in the dance team missed me after I left, and then she’d mention how her share of the prize money had made life a lot easier. “Recently, Ashford University held its independent admissions exams. Linda applied but got rejected after the interview.”“It was hilarious. The same professor who was at our anniversary gala was part of the

My school application was quickly finalized. Alec’s injuries were far more severe than mine. Even after I recovered, he was still lying in a hospital bed. “I heard Linda went to see him,” Rachel said as she came over to visit, holding a large bouquet of lilies. "She even comforted him, saying it wasn’t his fault—that you were the heartless one."She scoffed, shaking her head. "Two peas in a pod. They’re the ones who tried to break your leg, so tell me—how does that make you the heartless one?"I glanced at the flowers in her hands. “Those must’ve cost a lot. The prize money was for all of you. You should’ve kept it.” “It’s fine. Everyone chipped in when we found out you were going abroad. They asked me to buy these and bring them to you.” She pushed the bouquet into my hands, then took a deep breath as if gathering her courage. “Sierra.” “Hmm?” “I just feel like you know something I don’t. Ever since that day Linda transferred to our school, something’s been different...

I tugged at the corner of the blanket and laughed, the movement jarring my injured ankle and making my face twist in pain. From the reflection in his pupils, I saw myself—mad, out of control. Maybe I had been a lunatic since the day I died in my previous life. Shawn's facial muscles twitched slightly, and a flash of anger crossed his eyes before vanishing. When he spoke again, his tone had returned to its usual coldness, distant and condescending. "Is it really worth it? Sierra, even if Linda's performance fails, you still won’t get to dance. Not only that, your crazy, out-of-control behavior was caught on camera for everyone to see."This time, you can't just fool everyone with a fake doctor's memo. The school has already contacted our parents. They’re preparing to expel you." "Hahahaha!" I laughed aloud. "Expelled? Why would I care about that?" "Shawn, don’t forget, I'm just as much a Wood as you are. Just like Alec said, even if this path closes, there are plenty more

Chapter 1
The final memory of my previous life was the blinding, searing agony of acid burning into my eyes, pushing me to the brink of death. Through the haze of excruciating pain and blurred vision, I spotted Linda Lowe hiding behind my brother. Gripping a cake knife, I lunged forward and drove it into her chest.“Let’s go to hell together!” … When I opened my eyes again, the unexpectedly vivid scene before me left me stunned for two seconds. Then I saw Linda, younger and almost unrecognizable, standing a short distance away. Dressed in a washed-out school uniform, she twisted the faucet open, letting the water cascade over her head.While drenching herself, she laughed and asked, “Who do you think they’ll believe, me or you?” That was when it hit me. So, it was today. The very day the rumors of me bullying her began in my last life. Seeing me frozen in place, Linda’s smile widened. “Have you thought about how you'll apologize to me, Miss Wood?” “Ah—!” A surge of old grudge...
