My Luck, Reclaimed Chapter 12
Back then, Shawn had once tightly held onto his father’s hand and pointed at me, saying, “Then can I bring her along? As my little sister. I promised I’d take care of her.”He never kept his word.Instead, he repeatedly spoke ill of me in front of his parents, pinning his mistakes on me.People were emotional beings, after all.Seeing my resolve, Barry sighed and let me go.As I got into the taxi, I knew Shawn was watching me from the balcony upstairs.I couldn’t be bothered to spare him a single glance.…Throughout my four years of college, I juggled writing gigs that earned me royalties, studying, and lab work.My grades eventually soared.I was later awarded a scholarship by the university, freeing me from part-time work so I could devote myself entirely to medicine.Ten years after graduation, I had become the top surgeon in my field. I returned to the city where I once studied.Miranda would often invite me home for meals, and I had always declined, citing my busy s

For the first time, a wave of nausea hit me. I spent an entire half hour vomiting in the bathroom.Later, I learned Summer was preparing to go abroad, yet still couldn’t let go of Shawn.She came to ask him if he’d wait for her return, only to be met with the flicker of disgust in his eyes.Heartbroken, she covered her face and turned to walk away. Yet again, she was struck by an oncoming vehicle.This time around, because she was grounded by her mother, Summer had long since missed the timing when those street thugs would harass her.Fate had still caught up with her.She was hit by a car, only this time, she didn’t die instantly.Once I cleared my mind, I threw myself back into studying. If I wanted a future, I had to carve my own path through sheer determination.The day following the release of the exam results, Shawn was blocked at the classroom door.…The boy who had provoked him was Cohen Meyers, a school bully who bore a long-time resentment toward Shawn.Leading

The classmate laughed even more smugly.“Fine then, let’s make a bet. If you don’t come in first on the next exam—“No, if you don’t even make the top ten, you’ll run naked around the track while shouting ‘I’m an idiot!’”The class erupted, thrilled by the spectacle, and cheered him on.Shawn’s face darkened. He gritted his teeth and accepted the challenge.“Fine. If I make top ten, then you run naked while yelling that you’re a dog.”The boy left with a parting statement, “Like I’m afraid of you.”Whistling, he walked out of the classroom.A week before the exams, however, Summer was in a car accident and ended up in the ICU, still unconscious.…The news caught me off guard.In my past life, I had seen her being dragged into an alley by several burly street thugs. She struggled desperately, but what chance did a girl have against several grown men in strength?“Summie, you promised me. If I take care of those vermin you despise, you’d be my girlfriend. It has been so lo

The fallout this time was massive, topping the trending charts on social media and causing Manning Group’s stock to plummet overnight.Their products were being returned en masse.[Pah. We’re poor people who are clearly not worthy of using their stuff.][Heh, I’d never touch their goods. What garbage! Charging over a hundred bucks for a trash can.]Netizens tagged the business partners in online posts, all saying they would also boycott the partners’ products if they continued their collaborations.These companies quickly went silent, not daring to make the next move.One night after studying past midnight, I turned off the lights and was dozing off when I heard sobbing outside.…I got up and peeked through the crack in the curtains.Summer was running toward Shawn, throwing herself into his arms. “Boohoo. Shawny, what should I do? It’s all your sister’s fault! You have to help me teach her a lesson! Waaah, my mom’s sending me abroad to lie low for a while. I don’t want to

“Hah! Even if the heavens fall on me, I wouldn’t be scared. If I don’t cripple you today, I’ll look down upon myself!”She continued to bellow, “What are you standing around for? Get her!”My face drained with pain, yet I still managed to dodge a few punches. The next second, however, everyone who rushed forward all screamed and collapsed, clutching their eyes.Holding pepper spray in one hand, a stun baton in the other, I pointed them at the group and shouted furiously, “Come on! Try me! Even if it costs me my life today, I’ll take you all down with me!”The pepper spray hung thick in the air, forcing those behind to stumble back. Seizing the moment, I bolted away.They gave chase, but just then I spotted my teacher approaching. Seeing a student being bullied, he bellowed, “What are you lot doing?”The pursuers froze before scattering off in the opposite direction.Panting, I thanked the teacher. After confirming that I wasn’t hurt, he relaxed and addressed someone behind h

Sure enough, Barry stood up and flung his arm, flinging the photo album into the air.Photos scattered down over Shawn’s head.“Hmph!” Barry roared. “You ungrateful son! An arrogant liar! I can’t believe you’re my child!”Shawn saw photos of himself and Summer dancing intimately in a bar, entering hotel rooms together, or sharing a single straw in a sunlit café.He panicked, face flushed crimson. He crawled to his father’s feet and begged, “Dad, let me explain! These aren’t real. They must be AI fakes! You have to believe me. I didn’t—”This time, Barry refused to believe him. His voice was cold when he said, “It doesn’t matter whether they’re real or not. You’re not my only son. If you can’t shoulder the burden of succession, I can still ensure you live comfortably. Whether you’re qualified to run the company is another matter entirely.”Shawn was genuinely panicking. He repeatedly apologized, swearing it would never happen again.In my past life, bolstered by my luck, Shawn su
