Chapter 1

"Please save me!"I had just walked inside the village with the legal team when a tanned, skinny girl suddenly lunged at me. She threw herself at my feet, gripping my pant leg as she cried out pitifully, "My brother wants to sell me! Please help me!"Sure enough, I saw a man with a fearsome scowl storm toward us as he cursed at her, "You little bitch! How dare you run! I'll teach you a lesson you'll never forget!"I blinked, somewhat dazed by the scene unfolding before me. Only then did I realize that I've been reborn.The girl by my feet was none other than Francesca Langdon. In my previous life, I'd fallen for her pitiful act like a fool. I ignored my colleagues' warnings and insisted on helping her get away from her brother, Edwin Langdon.I had even helped her land a janitor job at the law firm.However, I didn't expect her to be so delusional. She had mistaken my kindness for romantic interest. Not only did she tell everyone that I was pursuing her, but she also barged int

In this lifetime, the legal team managed to leave the village on that day as our aid work concluded smoothly. After all, I hadn't dragged things out by helping Francesca get rid of Edwin this time around.However, I saw Francesca in a janitor's uniform at the law firm the very next day. I didn't know what she was up to, but she was standing near my office, staring at the trash can without blinking.My shock quickly turned to anger. She had actually dared to show her face here. I marched toward her and questioned her sharply, "What are you doing here?""I-I…" Francesca stammered as she lowered her head in embarrassment.Suddenly, James Lawson spoke up. "Raphael, it's already bad enough that you left Francesca to her brother's mercy when you knew that she was being abused. Are you seriously going to chase her away after I pleaded with our boss to let her work here?"James was my rival in the law firm and not the playful kind. He'd always been jealous that I was far more capable th

Thalia was outgoing and open-minded. It had been months since we had last seen each other. She shot me a sultry look, her eyes dark with desire as she pushed me into my office. Then, she shrugged off her jacket and backed me to the couch, saying slyly, "Tell me. Have you been naughty lately?"If I hadn't been reborn, I would definitely waste no time playing along and have some fun with her.However, I was now preoccupied with a growing suspicion. I needed to know whether my guess was right. So, I grabbed Thalia and shushed her.Then, I deliberately closed the blinds and locked the door. I deliberately mussed my hair and wrinkled my clothes before dragging Thalia out of the firm 30 minutes later.When we got inside the car, Thalia couldn't help but ask in confusion, "What was that about? You locked the door, but you didn't even— Holy shit! Why is this pervert going through your trash?"She was referring to Francesca.I'd connected my phone to the spy cams I'd installed in my off

Francesca had been eyeing my trash can for days. When she finally got the thing she wanted, she immediately called James to tell him the good news.James was equally excited. He wasted no time sneaking Francesca out of the law firm.I had already hired a private investigator to follow them and found out that they'd gone to a private IVF clinic.They had clearly planned it all out ages ago.Still, IVF treatments were expensive. How could a janitor like Francesca afford to pay tens of thousands of dollars for the treatment?I had the private investigator look into it and discovered that James was the one footing the bill.The investigator sent me a video of their conversation.James looked irritated as he complained, "Francesca, I've just spent several thousand on this treatment for you to get pregnant. Don't forget me after you bear Raphael's child and acquire his assets!"Francesca caressed her belly as she sniffed triumphantly. "Don't you worry. Raphael's filthy rich. Once I g

When the woman stormed in and saw Francesca with her obvious bump, her face twisted with rage.She rushed forward and slapped Francesca silly. "You bitch! How dare you seduce my husband! And you're pregnant too? I'm going to kill you!"She didn't stop there. She grabbed Francesca and started hitting her without mercy. Francesca howled in pain, but she didn't forget to protect her belly. James, who had just returned to the law firm, immediately turned stark white when he saw the woman. He immediately rushed toward her and cried out, "Honey, why are you here? You—"James' wife, Marigold Dubois, became even more incensed when she saw him. She grabbed his ear and slapped him across the face twice. "How dare a gold-digging leech like you go behind my back! You sleep under my roof, eat my food, and spend my money on your mistress? Tens of thousands gone! As if that weren't enough, you even knocked her up? I'm going to kill you worthless trash if it's the last thing I do!"Marigold'

Francesca had nearly miscarried after getting beaten up by Marigold, so she had to be on bed rest.She looked sickly when she returned to the law firm to resign.Before she left, she came to my office. Her face was bruised, and resentment filled her eyes as she demanded, "Raphael, why didn't you help me when James' wife beat me?"I sneered at her. "I don't even know you. Why would I help you? Besides, homewreckers deserve to get beaten. You deserved what you got."She wanted me to help her? Lord knew that I had to put in a lot of effort just to stop myself from kicking her myself."I'm not a homewrecker!" Francesca blurted. "I have nothing to do with James. The baby I'm carrying is—""That's your problem," I cut her off. "I'm not interested. Please leave."How could I let her spill the beans now? The show was far from over. We hadn't even gotten to the climax just yet. I promptly chased her out of my office.Francesca glared at me resentfully. Her hands were balled in fists a

I'd hired a private investigator to keep an eye on Francesca and gather evidence of her crimes.However, I didn't expect to learn the depths of how rotten the Langdon siblings truly were. Edwin was tight on money because he had to feed Francesca. As a result, he didn't have enough cash to go to the red-light district. In the end, he decided to use Francesca to satisfy his desires."You fooled around with other men, too, didn't you?" he said to her. "So, why can't I, as your brother, have a turn? You're already pregnant anyway. It's fine. No one will ever know."That marked the start of their incestuous relationship.I probably wouldn't have believed the private investigator that this was actually real if the surveillance camera he'd sneakily installed on the electric pole hadn't recorded their disgusting activities. A few months later, Francesca finally gave birth to a boy.She didn't even wait until her postpartum recovery had ended before getting in touch with James. Then, s

My lips curled into a cold smirk as I walked forward. I looked at Francesca in disdain as I said, "You claim the child is mine. Where's your proof?"Francesca immediately retorted, "I knew you wouldn't admit it. It's just as well. I've already contacted a DNA testing center for an expedited paternity test. We can get the results in 24 hours."She'd already contacted a paternity facility? Someone definitely came prepared.I arched an eyebrow at her. "Sure. However, I'm going to call the police and have them witness the results as well. After all, you might not acknowledge the results!"Francesca blinked at me dumbly before instinctively turning to James for help.James wasted no time responding, "Go on, then. The cops could take you away right there and then, too!"I did just that. I also reported Francesca for defamation.The officers couldn't help but suspect that I was a rapist when they saw how confident Francesca was. As a result, they, too, regarded me with contempt.I was

Public opinion had completely turned against Francesca and anyone associated with her after I released the footage.Those righteous keyboard warriors who had sympathized with her plight immediately turned against her when they found out they'd been played like a fiddle.Those who had purchased the products she advertised immediately demanded a refund. Those who had bought subs from her channel were also doing the same. Netizens tore into her, calling her a shameless fraud.James knew that there was no coming back from this. Terrified that people would call him her baby daddy, he insisted on a paternity test to be done in order to find the child's biological father. Francesca was still dazed from the turn of events. She couldn't understand what had gone wrong.It was with those thoughts in mind that they patiently waited for the results. In the end, it was discovered that Edwin was the father.The internet exploded. After all, it was difficult for normal people like them to come
