Rebirth of the Scheming Queen Chapter 9
Suddenly, Benedict wrapped his arms tightly around me from behind, his breath coming in quick, desperate gasps as he pressed his lips to my neck."Don't go, Lucia... don't leave..."I fought the wave of nausea rising in my stomach and, taking advantage of his momentary distraction, twisted around and kicked him hard.He let out a pained grunt.I glared at him, cold fury in my voice. "Try that again, and I’ll make sure you regret it."Benedict clutched his lower body in pain, his bloodshot eyes locked on me. "Lucia, even if you’re not mine, you can’t belong to anyone else!"I rolled my eyes, thinking, “What a lunatic,” before walking away.But it didn’t take long for me to understand exactly what he meant.---My private photos started circulating wildly online. Even though the PR team acted swiftly to suppress the scandal, the damage was already done. My Instagram was flooded with vulgar comments, mostly from men, lewd and mocking.Howard Corporation’s stock plummeted.I sat in my o

"She likes men, doesn’t she? Then I’ll send a few HIV-positive ones her way. Let’s see how she continues being a superstar!"The video abruptly cut off, Yancy’s terrified screams echoing in my ears.I shot to my feet, rage surging through me, my shoulders trembling as I forced out two words through clenched teeth."Crazy bastard!"At that moment, I fully understood why the system had told me to kill him.I had someone take the video straight to the police, but they were a step too late.By the time they found Yancy, she was lying in a pool of blood on a lavish bed, barely clinging to life.Several factions were searching for Benedict, but it was as if he had vanished from the face of the earth—no trace of him anywhere.…But Benedict, long gone from everyone’s radar, was now in my hands.When my people finally found him, he had already been beaten, his limbs broken, discarded by the roadside like trash and left to die.I visited him in the hospital. The moment he saw me, his eyes lit

As I clutched my chest and fell to the ground, Benedict Page's twisted smile was maddening, the blood at the corner of his mouth making him look like a vengeful demon."Lucia! You should have died a long time ago! From the moment you forced me to marry you, I wanted nothing more than to tear you apart! Yancy is dead, and you’re going to join her."I opened my mouth to speak, but a sudden gush of blood spilled out instead. I didn't understand. He was the one who begged me to save him back then. Why? I watched as Benedict's trembling hand pulled out a ring made from a soda can tab. He collapsed to the ground, unable to hold himself up, yet his grip on that makeshift ring remained firm. His dark eyes were filled with tenderness.I saw him shakily slide the cheap ring onto his middle finger."Yancy, I’ve avenged you. I’m coming to you with the ring you gave me."With that, he closed his eyes, utterly content. From beginning to end, he refused to give me even a glance.The wedding rings

"Let's see how you manage this time, Benedict, without me pulling strings. How will you, a mere bastard, claw your way to billions? How will you escape that madman, Miles? This life, I'll personally drag you to hell to atone for my past mistakes," I vowed silently.---Despite all the broken contracts from various parties, Benedict somehow managed to secure two deals, quickly stabilizing his company.It was just as I expected. Otherwise, living two lifetimes would have been a waste.I thought that with this second chance, he wouldn’t have anything more to do with me. Turns out, I underestimated just how shameless he could be.When Benedict barged into my office with Yancy in tow, I frowned."Lucia, I know you’ve recently invested in two of Mr. Thomas’ films and a variety show. Replace the female lead with Yancy."His entitled attitude made me laugh out of sheer anger. I tossed my pen aside, stood up, and gave him a mocking look. "What did you just say?"There was a flicker of irrita

It seemed that after getting humiliated, Benedict hadn’t shown up again. Still, high society was a small world, and whispers of Benedict and Yancy kept reaching my ears.After Benedict fled the engagement, Benjamin initially wanted to give up on him. But Benedict seized the opportunities from his previous life, developing several new tech products that sparked a trend in the business world. Many companies scrambled to invest.He thrived in the corporate world, and with the production of these new products, Page Corporation's stocks skyrocketed. Benjamin reinstated him in the company.Benedict even spent millions to push Yancy into the entertainment industry. The two were frequently trending on social media. For example:"The CEO of Page Corporation splurges on a luxury yacht for rising star Yancy Shepherd.""CEO treats the entire film crew to dinner at Blue Sky Hotel for Yancy.""Yancy receives a limited-edition sports car for her birthday."The two were the talk of the town for a

After that day, I never mentioned the name “Miles” in front of him again. But it didn’t change the fact that Miles remained a demon haunting Benedict’s mind.Before long, the first batch of Page Corporation's products hit the market, and it was a disaster. Over half the buyers demanded refunds. Some even sent the products to quality control agencies, where tests proved they didn’t meet Benedict's claims.Investors began pressing the Page family for an explanation of where their money had gone. Facing public outrage and media scrutiny, the family wasted no time in pushing Benedict into the spotlight to take the blame.Benedict had no defense. He hadn’t managed the product budget properly, but he couldn’t very well admit that he had spent the investors' money trying to fulfill the romantic regrets of his previous life.When I arrived at the Page family estate, I witnessed the scene firsthand.Benedict stood outside, watching as the servants tossed his belongings onto the ground with dis

The moment I saw him, I regretted meddling in this mess.It didn’t surprise me that he guessed I had been reborn—after all, I never intended to hide it. Only by confronting him head-on could I constantly remind myself of how foolish I had been in my previous life.But even so, I tightened my grip on my bag, my knuckles turning white, yet I said nothing to interrupt him.Benedict wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face twisted in disgust."Lucia, I really hate you. You think you're so noble, pitying me. I don’t need your pity! How are you any different from the rest of the Page family scum? Hiding behind a mask of compassion, looking down on me from your high horse."His words cut deep. I pressed my lips together, my gaze hardening as it fixed on him.Even though I had prepared myself, the ache in my chest was unavoidable.I had stood by his side for over thirty years, giving him everything I had. When he had stomach problems, I learned how to cook for him. When he compl

As long as Benedict secured the North Suburb land, the Page family would cover his debts. But I wasn’t a housewife, and he grossly overestimated the power of the “Mrs. Page” title. He conveniently ignored everything I had done for him.Before the auction, I heard another rumor: Benedict had been detained for a week after getting into a brawl with a wealthy businessman, supposedly over Yancy. The story even trended online for a while before being quickly suppressed.A close friend, linking arms with me, was laughing so hard she could barely speak."Lucia, I have to admit, Yancy has some tricks up her sleeve. She’s got Benedict wrapped around her finger.""The guy's wife caught them red-handed on the film set—her husband and Yancy making love, but Benedict still believed Yancy when she said she’d been forced into it after being plied with alcohol. And what did he do? Like a fool, he stormed into the guy’s office and beat him up!""Anyone with half a brain could tell Yancy was lying, but
