After receiving the report for an STD test, I went back to the barbeque restaurant, and there I ran into a young woman who was about three months pregnant. She asked me to let her cut in line, and, feeling sorry for her, I agreed to help her out. I quickly made arrangements for her and made sure she had a seat. But to my shock, after she finished her meal, she had a miscarriage. The girl posted about the incident online, and before I knew it, I was trending on social media, facing a wave of cyberbullying. The internet users went even further, digging up my health records and finding that everything came back positive. [She's positive for everything—she's clearly a woman with a messy private life!] [No wonder she caused the woman's miscarriage just by being near her—she's a biological hazard!] The cyberbullying got so bad that it pushed me into depression. Even my fiancé turned against me, accusing me of being filthy and breaking up with me. The emotional weight became too much, and in my pain, I drove straight into a reservoir. Meanwhile, the girl gained millions of followers online and skyrocketed to fame as a popular influencer. It was only after I died that I learned the shocking truth—this girl was my fiancé's first love. To boost her own popularity, she and my fiancé had come up with this entire scheme together. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day when she asked me to let her cut in line.

Chapter 1

"Hi, Miss. My baby is hungry. Could you please let me cut in line? I heard your barbeque is amazing. I think my baby and I are in for a treat today." The familiar voice reached my ears. Without thinking, I lifted my gaze and found myself looking at a sweet, innocent face. The suffocating feeling of being submerged in icy water still seemed to linger in my nostrils, making me instinctively gasp for air. The cold air, mixed with the scent of barbeque, rushed into my chest. That was when I realized—I had been reborn. I had returned to the day when the young pregnant woman, Zoey Winsor, came to my barbeque restaurant and asked to cut in line. "I'm three months pregnant, and I can't eat anything, but I've been craving your barbeque. Please let me cut in. If something happens to my baby because it's hungry, you wouldn't want to live with that guilt, would you?" Zoey gently rubbed her slightly rounded belly, swallowing saliva as she spoke. The other customers, noticing...

The murmurs around me grew louder, and the disapproving glares of the crowd seemed to fixate on me. When I didn't say anything, Zoey placed a hand protectively over her stomach, her eyes filled with hurt. "We're really hungry," she said softly. "Please, let me cut in line. I'll pay double the price." Zoey reached for her phone to pay, but I quickly stopped her and replied coldly, "You're pregnant. If anything happens, my restaurant can't bear the responsibility. Please, go eat somewhere else." Zoey looked stunned by my bluntness, her eyes brimming with tears in an instant. "I'm just pregnant; I haven't done anything wrong. Why won't you let me eat?" As Zoey spoke, she swayed slightly, and the customers around her hurried to grab a chair for her to sit. One of the customers suggested that Zoey go eat elsewhere for now, but she shook her head miserably. "I have severe morning sickness, and I can't keep anything down. The doctor said I should eat whatever I can man

The crowd in the restaurant erupted into loud whispers, each person eager to voice their opinion. "She's got all these diseases—just how much has she been messing around?" "No wonder she can't have kids. Looks like she's been used up long ago." The man I had called out earlier stepped forward, puffing out his chest. Without hesitation, he splashed a cup of water right across my face. "With all these diseases, how dare you even show your face here! What if you infect us? How disgusting. I'm embarrassed for you! I feel sorry for your fiancé. He seems like a decent guy, but he ended up with someone like you." Seeing the man's actions, others followed suit, throwing their leftover food at me and shouting for me to get out. In less than two minutes, I was covered in a mess of drinks and food. I turned to look at Laurence, hoping to see some sign of concern or compassion on his face. But all I saw was disgust. His words were cold and cruel. "What are you still doin

As I glanced at the crowd, their eyes filled with doubt, Zoey's gaze flickered briefly. "No matter what, the fact remains that you have these diseases," she said. With that, she snatched the test results from Laurence's hand, waved them in front of the crowd, then directly shoved them in front of a livestreaming camera. Those who had been uncertain moments ago shifted their attention entirely to Zoey. In an instant, the livestream and the room were flooded with voices cursing me. The barrage of comments on the screen blurred in front of my eyes. Even without reading carefully, I could tell they were filled with harsh insults. The more they cursed me, the more pleased Zoey seemed to become, her smile growing wider with every word. "Who gets infected with so many STDs? I don't think I need to explain that. You're trying to shift the blame onto me just to distract everyone, aren't you?" Zoey perfectly played the role of the victim, her expression one of such distre

I reached into my bag and pulled out another test result. This time, it showed all negative results, but the name on the report was Laurence's.Laurence froze for a moment, then erupted in fury, pointing at me and shouting curses."Dakota, you lived a messy love life and got infected, and now you're trying to curse me!"Seeing the fury in his eyes, I realized something for certain.Laurence still didn't know he was infected.In my past life, when I went to get the test results, the doctor apologized and said there had been a mix-up with the samples. My test and Laurence's had been swapped, and to avoid any further confusion, both of us were asked to retake the tests.I hadn't had the chance to tell Laurence before Zoey falsely accused me and I became the center of a viral scandal.Even when I showed the new test results to prove my innocence, the online community refused to believe me."Dakota, you've really let me down. I regret dating you for five years."Laurence's expressi

Zoey snatched the ID badge from the man's hand, inspecting it closely for signs of forgery.At that moment, people both online and in the restaurant began to recognize Sam. "He's really a doctor from St. James Hospital! He performed a test on me last month," one person said."He's a top graduate from Northwestern Medical University. If he says she's not infected, then it must be true," another added."Does that mean her fiancé's the one with all those STDs?" Hearing these words, Laurence visibly panicked. "If you're not infected, there's no way I could be!" I scoffed, deliberately glancing at Zoey as I spoke, "Maybe someone else infected you." Zoey quickly shot back, "It wasn't me." I rolled my eyes. "I didn't name anyone. But you sure seem quick to take the blame. Feeling guilty, are we?" Zoey's eyes flickered, and her face drained of color. She clutched her stomach and collapsed into Laurence's arms before blood started to pool between her legs. She had miscarrie

After Laurence and Zoey left, I publicly announced that I would be temporarily closing the restaurant for disinfection. The guests, now recalling that Laurence might have STDs, voiced their support, promising to return once the place reopened. I thanked each of them before seeing them off. When the last of them had gone, only Sam and I remained."Ms. Lennings, I'm so sorry. Our mistake has caused you so much trouble," Sam said, his face full of guilt. Looking at his remorseful expression, I couldn't help but feel a wave of confusion. In my past life, I had blamed the hospital for everything. If it hadn't been for the mix-up with the test results, I wouldn't have ended up on such a tragic path. But in my final moments, I realized the truth. Laurence and Zoey had always been the ones scheming against me. They were the ones who had truly hurt me."It's okay," I said, waving it off. "You cleared things up for me earlier. Let's consider it even."Hearing my words, Sam looked even

I was about to curse Laurence for thinking he could punch above his weight when I caught a glimpse of Zoey hiding not far away. An idea sparked in my mind, and I decided to rephrase my question. "What about Zoey? Isn't she your first love? Are you really willing to let her go?"At the mention of Zoey's name, Laurence's face twisted in disgust."What I have with Zoey is just a fling," he said, sneering. "She's nothing compared to you. Besides, she's the one who's been sleeping around and getting all those diseases. Someone like her isn't even fit to be near me."Seeing that I wasn't saying anything, Laurence must have thought he had convinced me. He reached out to hug me, but before he could, Zoey suddenly rushed out and grabbed his arm."Laurence, you jerk! You're the one who gave me that infection!" Laurence shot me a quick glance, then quickly shoved Zoey away."Are you out of your mind? You're the one who caught all those diseases. It has nothing to do with me! Dakota, don'

Standing at my doorstep, Laurence boldly listed off his accusations. "It's all your fault. You ruined our lives—mine and Zoey's," he growled, glaring at me. "You need to make it up to us. If you don't, we won't let you off the hook. You won't be able to live your life in peace."I leaned back, unfazed. "I see. So how can I make it up to you?""Transfer your barbeque shop and house to us, and give us 300 thousand," he demanded, as if he had every right."And if I don't?"Laurence's eyes darkened with malice. "If you don't, don't blame me for making you end up like us. I'm sure you don't want to get infected, right?"Zoey stepped forward, pulling out a small knife. She sliced it across her wrist, and with a bloodied blade in hand, she pointed it at me, her face contorted with fury. "If this knife even touches you, you'll be just like us—infected with HIV," she hissed.I took a couple of steps back, pretending to be terrified, while glancing around, wondering how much longer it
