After Chelsea's family went bankrupt, Chelsea still refused to give up. Just like I had in my previous life, she took out a pile of high-interest loans, determined to stage a comeback.Unfortunately for her, she had no idea I had been watching her every move. Even those loans had been arranged through people working under Andy.Otherwise, how could the owner of a collapsing company possibly borrow such a large sum?The scene unfolded almost exactly like my past life—Only this time, our roles were reversed.At the bidding conference for a major project, I deliberately chose a seat beside Chelsea and smiled at her."Chelsea, we're like sisters. If you want this project, just say the word—I'll let you have it.""Melissa, I treated you as my closest friend, and this is how you repay me?" Her voice was hoarse, deep lines etched into her face. "Aren't you afraid karma's gonna bite you in the ass?"At once, the comments began to scroll again.[Chelsea is so pitiful—she gave Melissa

Before long, the entire project was underway, progressing smoothly and in perfect order.During this time, Andy and I finally cleared up the misunderstandings between us.In my previous life, if not for those so-called comments and Chelsea's constant manipulation, I would never have ended up in such a tragic situation.As long as Andy stood by my side, my family could be saved at any moment.When he learned that Chelsea had been behind everything, he was so furious he nearly ordered someone to tie her up and throw her into the sea.It was only after I persuaded him that he finally calmed down."Melissa, you need to stay far away from someone like her. Why are you still working with her?"Leaning lightly against his chest, a trace of cold hatred flickered in my eyes.Stay away from her? Let her off that easily? After what she did to my family in my previous life, how could I not make her taste the same suffering?"Don't worry, Andy. I've already made arrangements."A month aft

I nodded and smiled at Chelsea."You have a point. I'll go in and ask him myself—see if there's a mastermind behind all this."The look on her face darkened instantly. She looked like she'd just swallowed something foul, and I couldn't help but smile.Before she could stop me, I went to the officers to request a meeting with the finance director.But before I could even speak, a shout rang out from inside the station."Something's happened—the suspect committed suicide!"In one of the interrogation rooms, the finance director had slammed his head into the wall. Blood splattered across it, mixed with ghastly fragments that made the scene unbearable to look at.I stood there, stunned.I never imagined he would choose to end his own life.A pair of large hands suddenly covered my eyes, followed by a soft sigh."Don't look. I'll take you outside."After following Andy out, I was still in shock, murmuring to myself, "Why would he kill himself? It was just money laundering… why wo

I was taken to the police station, where I recounted everything I knew in front of the officers.Only then did I realize that the materials Chelsea had produced were records of large-sum transactions.Every one of them showed money flowing from unknown accounts into the company's corporate account—only to be transferred out again shortly afterward."All of these transactions were traced through the McKinnon Group's accounts. Every single one checks out. Ms. McKinnon, how do you explain this?"Faced with the officer's questioning, I shook my head bitterly."I don't know. I'm not aware of any of these transfers.""Ms. McKinnon, please cooperate. You're the CEO of the group—how could you not know what transactions your company is making?"Even the officer clearly didn't believe me, but all I could do was shake my head again.The company processed countless transactions every day. Unless I deliberately monitored them, I would never have noticed anomalies of this scale.Besides, th

Chelsea froze for a moment, a flicker of panic flashing through her eyes.Then she quickly composed herself, letting out a hesitant sigh."Melissa… I don't even know what to say anymore. But since Andy is coming, I'd better stay out of it. I don't want to make things unpleasant between you two."She tried to leave, but I grabbed her arm firmly, my smile bright and unyielding."Why the rush, Chelsea? You're my strategist. When Andy gets here, if there's anything wrong, you can question him directly. I won't blame you. You're my best friend. I'm going through the hardest time right now—how can you not stay with me?"In the end, Chelsea couldn't leave. Because at that very moment, a group of police officers had already arrived at the company.The officer in charge took out his credentials and spoke."Who is the CEO of McKinnon Group? We need your cooperation with an investigation."I took a deep breath and stepped forward."I am Melissa McKinnon, CEO of McKinnon Group.""Ms. McK

At my words, Chelsea instantly panicked. She lunged forward and snatched my phone from my hand, nearly losing control of her expression."I'm just calling my fiancé to ask about the bank card. Why are you so worked up?" I lowered my gaze slightly, a faint, knowing smile tugging at my lips as I questioned her.She drew in a deep breath, taking a long moment to steady herself.Only then did she release her grip on my phone, forcing a stiff, unnatural smile onto her face."Melissa, I just didn't want you to alarm Andy. If he senses something's off, he might find another way to target the company. But if you really want to call, go ahead… just don't mention my name."As she spoke, her expression turned bitter."My family's little company is nothing compared to yours. If he finds out I exposed him behind his back, he definitely won't let me off."Hearing those words again, anger surged through me. Even now, she was still playing her petty games.In my previous life, I had believed h
