Chapter 1

"I bought this perfume with half my paycheck, Helena. It's just a little something, so please don't judge. I'll definitely get you something much better once I save up some money!" My best friend, Queenie Livingston, grinned and handed over the neatly wrapped gift.I stumbled back in utter astonishment, taking in the familiar office surroundings and realizing with absolute certainty that I had been reborn. I ignored the strange looks I was getting and bolted straight for the restroom, stripping off my clothes the moment I got inside. I finally breathed a sigh of relief once I noticed that my body was smooth and unblemished.In my past life, whenever I applied perfume, my whole body would sprout a fine coat of hair, giving off a faint, pungent odor that was enough to drive away everyone who dared to come near me.Queenie came from a poor background, and when she first started working at the company, she was almost let go because she couldn't master the workflow. I stepped in and

It was after my death that Queenie finally achieved her aim—Preston officially became her boyfriend. In a perverse search for thrills, she even engaged in an intense sexual act with Preston in the very room where I died, doing it directly in front of my portrait.The horrific events of my past life flashed before my eyes. I instinctively gritted my teeth, a violent, raging fury coursing through every fiber of my being. It was only when my fingernails tore into my own flesh that the searing pain succeeded in wrenching my thoughts back to the present."What's the matter, Helena? You should really try this perfume," Queenie prompted as she batted her large eyes with a look of pure innocence, her harmless appearance giving absolutely no hint of her cruel and wicked nature.She noticed that I didn't reach for the gift, so she gently extended the porcelain bottle containing the perfume.I quickly shot up and stepped away from my desk. I pointed warily at the slightly cluttered surface

I couldn't stand Queenie's hypocritical facade. I desperately wanted to smash that porcelain bottle right in her face, but I needed her to expose her true nature so I could execute my plan for revenge. Forcing myself to feign indifference, I pursed my lips and said, "I'll give it a try another day, so just leave it there for the time being."Queenie's expression instantly brightened. She stepped closer and enthusiastically looped her arm through mine, telling me that the perfume should be used within a week or its scent would fade.I nodded my head in acknowledgment, though my mind was already racing. I frantically formulated a strategy.The moment Queenie stepped out for the restroom, I quickly put on a mask and gloves before opening the porcelain bottle. I snapped a photo of the bottle and sent it to a friend of mine who specialized in fragrance packaging to create a replica. I even paid a considerable fee for its expedited delivery to the office.I received the product right b

Queenie's body had sprouted a thick covering of fine, dense hair. From a distance, she bore a striking resemblance to a fox."Why are you suddenly playing dress-up, Queenie? What's this supposed to be? That stench is way too overwhelming!"One of our colleagues reached out and pinched the hair, causing Queenie to yelp in pain. "It's the real deal! It's not glued on! You haven't caught some kind of disease, have you, Queenie? You really look like a fox right now.""Get those windows opened now! I feel like I'm going to suffocate here!"One of my roommates pinched her nose and furiously fanned the noxious air with her other hand, while those who couldn't handle the stench ran to the bathroom to throw up.Queenie's face paled one second and flushed the next, making her look absolutely terrifying. She didn't bother hiding the rage in her eyes when she noticed that I had returned. "How could you leave just like that, Helena? How come you don't have any hair growing on your body?

Chapter 5

I had just walked back into the dormitory when Queenie burst out of the bathroom and screamed at me, her voice raw with uncontained fury, "What's going on here? Why is your face totally fine when I know you have hair growing on your body?"I let out a contemptuous laugh, tugged at the hem of my shirt, and ripped off the patch of fuzz right in front of her. "I'm sorry! I completely forgot that this was just a prop I glued on for the dress-up exhibition I participated in."Queenie clutched her head, her eyes widening in sheer hysteria. "How could this be happening to me? How could this be?"It was then that a colleague who was leaving the bathroom accidentally knocked into Queenie's vanity table, causing the bottle of perfume on its surface to overturn. Its potent odor instantly permeated the air, rousing our sleeping colleagues. "It stinks here! Is the toilet clogged or something?""How repulsive! Go open the window right now!"Queenie looked utterly bewildered. She spotted the

I timed it perfectly, flipping on the light just as I grabbed the glass from the corner and hurled it in Queenie's direction.It struck Queenie squarely on the forehead, making her cry out in pain as she tumbled awkwardly and landed on her back. She noticed the bloodstains on her finger and tearfully cried out, "Why did you hit me with that, Helena? You made me bleed!"Startled and dazed, our colleagues rubbed their eyes and impatiently asked what had happened.I feigned panic and patted my chest frantically, making it seem as though I were in shock. "I genuinely mistook her for a fox just now and freaked out. I just switched on the light so I could drive it away. I had no idea it was Queenie."They were amused by my overreaction at first, but once they clearly discerned Queenie's facial features, they began screaming in shock, reacting as though they had seen a ghost."Oh my goodness! How did you end up looking like that, Queenie? You scared the life out of me!""It's no wonde

Chapter 7

I feigned a cheerful expression, exclaiming, "They look great. Of course, I'll gladly accept them!"I was just about to leave when Preston suddenly grabbed my hand. I violently shook him off, asking, "What do you think you're doing, Preston?"Preston replied, "Now that we've made up, let's go see a movie, Helena. I also have a surprise planned for you tonight."I looked at him with disgust and asked, "You've been dating Queenie, haven't you? How do you expect to get back together with me, Preston?"Preston asked, "What are you talking about, Helena?"I let out a contemptuous snort, then immediately uploaded their intimate photos and videos, along with the ready-made caption I had written, online.Preston lunged at me, desperately trying to snatch my phone. "What the hell are you doing, Helena? You're going to ruin my career!"I glared at him, my eyes wide with anger as I snarled, "You'd better not come near me. Otherwise, I'll scream for help!"Hearing the onlookers' growing mu

Chapter 8

In the midst of the growing scandal, Queenie's notoriety soared again, ultimately prompting an official inquiry from the headquarters.Preston and Queenie were found to have violated company regulations regarding professional conduct, resulting in their immediate, compulsory dismissal.One of my colleagues posted old photos of me and Queenie together. While some netizens condemned the cheating couple's moral depravity, there were also others who couldn't help but mock Preston for his absolute lack of judgment. Preston, with his past scandals, couldn't get a job at any major companies. He finally sought me out for help. "You have to help me, Helena. I'll be completely ruined if this drags on. Can't you just say something nice about me online—for old times' sake?"I closed my eyes as the horrific memory from my past life surfaced—bleeding out in a bathtub after I slit my wrists.Preston, as my boyfriend, hadn't taken a stand for me. Instead, he appeared on Queenie's live stream p
