My best friend, Emily Summers, who had always been terrified of dogs, suddenly told me she was planning to buy a pet dog. That’s when I knew that she had been reincarnated too. In my previous life, I bought a pure white toy poodle from a pet shop. From the moment that little dog came into my home, everything in my life turned around. Morgan Hale, our manager who had always been at odds with me, suddenly offered me a promotion and a raise. Even the client I’d been struggling to win over for months personally requested to sign the deal with me. But the most unbelievable change of all? Silas Sullivan, the company’s tall, rich, and handsome CEO got down on one knee and proposed to me after a party, saying he wanted to marry me. I had said yes and even invited Emily to the wedding to witness my happiest moment. However, driven by jealousy, she stabbed me to death on the day of the wedding. "Why should someone like you get to marry a CEO while I’m stuck working three shifts a day like a damn slave?" The next time I opened my eyes, I was back at that moment, standing beside her, at the pet shop, looking at dogs…

Chapter 1
"That toy poodle is so adorable! Sir, how much is it? I’ll take it!"Inside the bustling pet market, my best friend, Emily Summers, who’d always been terrified of dogs, rushed up to the pet shop owner, not even bothering to ask the price before claiming Snowy the fluffy white poodle for herself.Then, she quickly scooped Snowy into her arms, clutching it like she was afraid I’d snatch it away.Watching her, I instantly knew she had been reborn too.Sure enough, Emily beamed as she cuddled Snowy, then gave me a triumphant glance."Sorry, Mia. I know you wanted this dog too, but I beat you to it! Now I’m gonna be on a roll, get rich, and who knows, maybe even meet my Prince Charming!"She was practically glowing with excitement, the gleam in her eyes screaming victory.Nevertheless, I just looked at her with a calm expression. "I never wanted that dog."In my previous life, the only reason I bought Snowy was because the pet shop owner had kept begging, saying the poor thing was s

Chapter 2
Emily was finally basking in glory at the company.The HR department quickly announced her promotion and raise. Leadership praised her repeatedly in meetings, calling her competent and highly capable.Within a few days, multiple clients came knocking, all specifically requesting to sign deals with her.Emily strutted around like a proud peacock, her chin raised so high that she was practically looking down her nose at me."Mia, you must be so jealous right now, huh? Well, too bad. You’re not as pretty as me, and you’re definitely not as talented. My advice? Suck up to me now. Who knows, once I marry into a rich family, I might let you be a maid at my house!"With that, she turned and walked away on 4-inch stilettos, clicking loudly with every smug step.The rest of the team had been thoroughly worn down by her arrogance over the past few days. They started whispering among themselves."Has Emily totally lost it? She got promoted to some minor management role, and now she thinks

Chapter 3
Silas’s voice was sharp, tinged with urgency as he grabbed Emily by the wrist and demanded, "Where’s the dog?"Emily froze, completely caught off guard that Silas even knew about the dog. She stammered out, "I-It wouldn’t stop barking today. I thought it wasn’t feeling well, so I brought it to the pet hospital."She wasn’t lying. She had actually taken Snowy to the hospital. The dog had grown weak.In our previous life, after I brought it home, I had cared for it meticulously. I thought it was just malnourished. I made soup for it, fed it nourishing broths, and kept it close by my side at all times. Even at work, I’d leave it in my car so I could check on it constantly, terrified something might go wrong.Thanks to that care, it gradually improved. Its coat even became shinier and smoother. I worked myself sick looking after it.However, this time around, Emily had no patience or energy for the dog. Her mind was consumed with one thing only—marrying Silas. She simply dumped the do

Chapter 4
The next morning, as soon as I walked into the office, I heard coworkers gossiping all around me:"Emily is such a manipulative vixen. I can’t believe she actually locked down Mr. Sullivan! Word is, he’s already confirmed publicly that he’s her boyfriend!""I heard it was love at first sight. Not only did he admit to the relationship, but they’re apparently getting married really soon!""Holy crap! How did Emily pull this off? Why is she so lucky? She’s actually marrying into high society? Is the bar that low now?!"…Right in the middle of their chatter, Emily walked in, decked out head to toe in designer labels, her sunglasses perched glamorously on her nose. Behind her trailed a man who looked like a bodyguard.She pulled off her sunglasses and looked around the office with smug superiority."I told you all I’d marry rich. None of you believed me. You better show some respect now. I’m the CEO’s fiancée!"Then, she strutted right up to me."Mia, you must be dying of jealousy

I gasped sharply.That voice! It was exactly the same one I heard right before I died in my past life!Who was it? Who was speaking to Emily?Emily clearly heard it too. She whipped around in a panic. "Who said that?!"She spun in a circle, holding up her phone and scanning the entire room. But there was no one there, just her and Snowy. There was no other person in sight.So, naturally, she turned her suspicion toward me."Mia, what kind of creepy trick are you pulling? What gift for Snowy? This is my wedding! If anyone’s getting gifts, it’s me!""That wasn’t me," I said flatly, staring at the video screen. The unease in my gut was growing.Nevertheless, Emily didn’t take it seriously. She was just about to throw another insult my way when Silas’s voice cut in from off camera."Emily, are you ready?"She spun around in delight. "Ready! Silas, look! How do I look in my dress—?"Smack!Before she could finish, Silas slapped her hard across the face. Then, he glared at her, s

Chapter 6
I clapped a hand over my mouth, gasping in shock.So, I hadn’t been wrong.Snowy could really talk.In my previous life, I’d once accidentally overheard Silas speaking to Snowy, and I even heard it reply. At the time, I thought I was hallucinating. Now, I finally had proof.After I died, Silas had looked absolutely frantic. He rushed me to the hospital for emergency treatment, and even after they declared me dead, he insisted they keep trying to resuscitate me.Back then, I’d thought, that it was because he couldn’t bear the thought of his bride dying on their wedding day.However, I heard him say to the poodle, "It’s all that idiot Emily’s fault. She ruined everything. Now that Mia is dead, we can’t use her body anymore. We’ll need to find another candidate."Nestled in his arms, Snowy replied in an equally furious tone, "She totally screwed us! You'd better make her suffer. We spent so long planning this, and now it’s all gone to waste!"I had believed, in that moment, that m

The more I thought about it, the more terrified I became. In a panic, I ran to my computer and started digging through every piece of information I could find on Silas.Finally, buried deep in a sea of financial news articles, I found one tiny mention of his personal life."Three years ago, Silas Sullivan, CEO of the Sullivan Group, lost his first love, Isla Shaw, in a devastating car accident. Her body was severely mutilated in the crash. Interestingly, her beloved white toy poodle survived unscathed and even made its way home to the Sullivan residence all on its own…"Reading that, a chill ran down my spine.Now, I understood everything.Three years ago, after Isla died, her soul hadn’t fully dissipated. For some reason, it had become attached to her pet poodle. For the past three years, Silas had been trying to find a way to extract her soul and return it to a human body.If I was right, then in my past life, and now in this one with Emily, Silas had been using women as vessel

When I came to, my hands were bound, and I was in Silas’s mansion.The only ones in the room were Silas, Snowy the talking poodle and Emily, who was kneeling not far from them and begging desperately."Mr. Sullivan, my body’s not a good fit. But I brought you Mia, just like you asked. If you switch her soul with Isla's, can you please let me go now?"Silas let out a cold laugh, then turned to the poodle.The poodle sneered back, baring its creepy little teeth as it spoke in that chilling, human voice, "It’s not that your body isn’t a fit. It’s that it’s filthy. You’ve slept with too many men. There’s too much residual ‘impurity’ in your flesh. If we went through with the soul transfer, it might damage me."But that friend of yours, Mia? She’s still a completely pure virgin which is rare these days. Only a body that clean is worthy of housing my noble soul."As she spoke, Silas called in a man named Father Alaric Voss who was dressed like a priest. The man entered the room and beg

Chapter 9
I grabbed the charm around my neck and let out a cold laugh."Father Alaric, word is you were expelled from the orthodox church years ago for practicing dark and forbidden rituals. Now you peddle your dirty magic for the rich. I had no choice but to go to your old church and ask for a protective charm. Let me also remind you: those who walk in evil will always meet their end."Ever since I was reborn, I had suspected that the whole thing was related to some dark and forbidden ritual. So I went to a church to secure a protective charm in advance.When I told Father Samuel Whitaker, the priest at the church what had happened, he was horrified that someone like me had been victimized. He promised to personally deal with this corrupt Father Alaric and said he’d show up soon.The moment I spoke, Father Alaric's face went pale."You went to my old master? What… what did you tell him? No, no, this isn’t good. Mr. Sullivan, I—I need to leave for a while!"He turned to run.However, Sila
