LOGINGrandpa Arthur Bennett was taken to court after being accused of using violence and coercion to commit rape. Yet I lounged at home, idly scrolling on my phone while watching a livestream. In my previous life, determined to uncover the truth, I had volunteered to serve as the plaintiff’s lawyer and investigated the case in depth. I had even contacted my brother, Ethan Bennett, praised as a genius lawyer, and urged him to defend Grandpa. But he believed the story I told was absurd—a lie meant to stop him, my best friend, and my mom from going on their trip to Moonlake together—and he blocked all my contact information. In the end, Grandpa was sentenced to life in prison and suffered a fatal heart attack in the courtroom. My family believed I had deliberately helped the plaintiff and disregarded my own kin. They blamed Grandpa’s conviction and death on me. When my Mom returned and saw Grandpa’s body, she collapsed in grief. Overcome with emotion, she got into her car and drove it straight into me, killing me. When I awoke with a start, I realized I had returned to three hours before Grandpa was taken to court.

This time, I had finally changed my fate.…“What happened? Such wickedness…” Grandma murmured, surveying the chaotic scene.“After she kicked Mom and me out, we searched for a place to stay. “That’s when we overheard Sophia talking with her cousin. It turns out the accusation of Grandpa being raped was all their scheme. “To stop me from defending Grandpa and interfering with their huge compensation payout… they plotted this. They made Mom and me go to Moonlake with Sophia, so I couldn’t help Grandpa. “Everything… It was her design. That day, she even pretended to be regretful, keeping Mom and me there. It was all planned…” Ethan’s voice broke as he revealed the truth.“Mom flew into a rage and confronted her, but Sophia just grinned, asking Mom what she could do to her? “Grandpa was already dead anyway—Mom had killed him herself.
Mom, Ethan, and Sophia returned, hands full of shopping bags.“Mom, don’t worry. Today we’ll just relax—don’t stress about Dad.”“Oh, my sweet little Sophia, always so thoughtful. He wants a divorce, but mark my words, in a few days, he’ll be begging me to come back. “Yes, I made a mistake, but their attitude… what’s going on?”“Mom, if you ask me, Dad was just speaking in anger. Don’t worry about it…”The scene was almost laughable. I wondered if Mom, once she learned the truth, could still stroll through the streets so cheerfully with the very people who had caused Grandpa’s death.Looking at my gentle, composed Mom, I felt a pang of sadness. She had always been this way—warm and generous to everyone except me.A tear slipped down my cheek, dripping onto my hand. I shook myself, picked up my bag, and continued on my way.…Back home, Dad’s divorce agreement lay on the table.“Dad… you and Mom…”“I’ve already signed it. Someone will deliver it to her soon. After all th
In my previous life, just before I died, Sophia had whispered directly into my ear, “Actually, the one who accused your Grandpa of rape was my cousin, Victoria. “She just wanted to get a payout from your family. Who told you to meddle? Serves you right! “Your Grandpa was such a useless old man, and now he’s dead. What a pity! But on the road to the afterlife, at least he has you with him—so he’s not alone…”I watched Grandma in the living room, crying in pain, and Dad, utterly desolate.I silently returned to my room and thought over Sophia’s words from my last life, pondering how to expose the truth this time.In this life, I stayed away from the incident itself, so things had been relatively peaceful.Although I had narrowly escaped disaster and dodged the blame, Grandpa had always treated me well while he lived.In the courtroom, I had been unable to help him for my own survival. Even though I hadn’t helped, I couldn’t let him die wronged.After some thought, I picked up
Sophia shivered in fear, too startled to speak, and hurriedly ducked behind Mom.Mom was about to reply when she saw Aunt Linda helping Grandma slowly walk forward. The sight of Grandma was like seeing a savior, and Mom burst into tears, looking at her desperately.“Mom, you finally came! You don’t understand—Charlotte egged Daniel on! “I don’t even know what she told him, and now he wants to divorce me! He wants a clean break! He even scolded Sophia just now. “Mom, you have to make this right for me…”“That’s right. Divorce is exactly what’s needed! You ungrateful woman! “If you don’t divorce now, how will you even get through the year…”“I knew it… You still care for me…” Mom said confidently.But her words halted mid-sentence as realization struck. Her face turned as pale as a corpse.“Mom… you… What did you just say? Are you telling me I should divorce Daniel? That I’m offensive?”Mom stared at Grandma in shock, used to being the center of her world.Seeing Mom be
