My boyfriend has always doted on me. However, after learning that I can't go to work at the bank after falling and injuring myself, he snaps at me. "Why didn't you tell me you switched shifts with someone else? That was a cheap move!" I don't refute him. Instead, I pull out a hospitalization record as I watch the bank descend into chaos. In my past life, I attended to a couple who wanted to deposit five million dollars into their account. Their child had been diagnosed with a rare illness. They'd gotten the money by selling their organs and mortgaging the home—it was to save their child's life and pay for the surgery the following day. However, the money was stolen the following day. I helped them check where the money was withdrawn, but the surveillance footage showed I was the one who did it. My best friend wept when the couple questioned me. "You shouldn't have stolen the money someone needed to save a life, no matter how materialistic and covetous you are!" My boyfriend hurried over and said, "I wondered why you suddenly had money to buy a car—you stole it! You're heartless!" The child died after failing to receive treatment in time, and the couple stabbed me to death on the streets out of devastation. When I open my eyes again, I think injuring myself will help me escape this. To my surprise, the surveillance cameras once again capture me stealing the money.

"Which floor do you live on?"The couple immediately looked at each other with dawning recognition."We live on the second floor, and our windows are old-fashioned. With enough force, they can be opened from the outside. Are you saying Madison actually used that demon to steal our bank card?"I nodded, quickly walking over to help them hold the mop handle in place as I continued, "If I'm right, your bank card PIN is your daughter's birthday, isn't it?"They nodded eagerly, and my suspicions were beginning to align.I then turned to the colleague who had identified the Flying Head Demon. "Is it possible for this creature to transform into someone familiar?"The colleague shook his head. "I'm not sure, but this dark magic is incredibly sinister. I think your guess is probably correct."I nodded and borrowed a lighter from a colleague who usually smoked. I ripped the charm bracelet off Madison's wrist and set it on fir
Madison trembled with fury and immediately retorted, "I don't care how you try to argue. I'm innocent! Let me out of here! I'm feeling sick! I need to go to the hospital!"If something happens to me here, I'll sue you all for illegal detention. Just wait to be arrested!"At first, I thought Madison was trying to make a run for it with the money, but as I studied her, I realized something was wrong.Her lips were pale, and the dark circles under her eyes were even worse than before. Most unsettling of all, her neck seemed to be elongating.At the mention of illegal detention, everyone stepped back. No one wanted to be caught up in a lawsuit for just being spectators.Soon, all eyes were on me.I knew I couldn't let Madison leave at that moment. If she did, she and Evan would disappear with the money.Just as I was about to take responsibility, Alfie and Demi, who had seemed so timid up to this point, suddenly stepped forward."You're all still young, so it's understandable that
Maddison was right.Yesterday, when I saw Madison leave and then received Evan's check-in call, I had a gut feeling that they would steal again in this life.To be safe—and to help this poor couple— I specifically asked Willow to come with me and helped pay their daughter's surgery fees before checking out of the hospital early in the morning.But from an outsider's perspective, my actions must have seemed bizarre.After all, who would just throw away five million dollars for a stranger?As I considered this, Evan let out a sinister laugh."Well, well, Caitlin. You dated me for so long while hiding your identity. Who knows what your real intentions were?"And now, you deliberately paid for their daughter's medical bills just so you could frame Madison. A vile woman like you has no right to live in this world!"He then turned to Alfie and Demi. "She used your daughter to set this all up! What are you waiting for? Go teach her a lesson already!"Evan's face twisted with rage. Hi
Alfie and Demi turned to me. Their eyes were filled with desperation."We really don't know what else to do. Our daughter is still in the hospital. If she doesn't make it, we won't have any reason to live either!"I let out a deep sigh and helped the sobbing couple to their feet."Your daughter is going to be fine. I already paid for the medical expenses this morning."The moment those words left my mouth, everyone fell silent.It was no surprise they were shocked. Although I worked at the bank, I kept a low profile and barely made my presence known.Even Madison, the person closest to me, had no idea that I was actually a rich heiress.I had only taken this job to pass the time.In my previous life, if Alfie and Demi's daughter had survived, I could have covered her surgery costs and investigated the truth at my own pace.But tragically, because the surgery had been delayed, their daughter had passed away that very afternoon.Amidst the gasps, Evan's face was filled with sho
Madison's eyes widened in an instant. She quickly covered her right wrist with her left hand and shouted defensively, "Stop slandering me! What's one bracelet supposed to prove? Maybe you copied me and secretly bought the same one!"I couldn't help but laugh at how flustered she looked."Since your memory seems to be a little off, let me remind you. Last month, after you returned from your Jordale trip, you treated that bracelet like a treasure and spent a long time bragging about it to all of us."What did you say again? Oh, I remember now. You said that bracelet was one of a kind, the only one in the world. Tell us, Madison. How did you disguise yourself as me? And how did you steal that money with my face?"Madison stomped her foot in frustration. Evan, seeing her in such a panic, shoved me to the ground in a fit of anger."How can you be so vile, Caitlin? It's just a bracelet. There are tons of copies out there! What's that supposed to prove? You've been friends with Madison f
Willow wasn't just our manager. She was also George's wife.With her vouching for me, everyone fell into a tense silence.In my previous life, I hadn't been able to make out what was on the screen. This time, I wasted no time. I scrolled through the footage frame by frame.Even though it was nighttime, the ATM lights were still bright.Under the clear, almost daylight-like glow, my face was unmistakably visible.No matter how I looked at it, the person in the footage was undeniably me.I felt frustrated but refused to give up. I stubbornly kept my eyes locked on the screen.Seeing me so close to the monitor, Madison immediately signaled for Evan to pull me away."You're really evil, Caitlin! You were the only one who had access to Mrs. Austin's card yesterday. Who knows what kind of trick you used to secretly copy it? You probably faked that ankle sprain just to create an alibi!"Evan, eager to support Madison's accusations, quickly chimed in, "Yeah, Madison's right. She saw t
