All Chapters of Reborn After Mom's Thoughts Spelled My Doom: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

"Congratulations! You can come in tomorrow to complete your onboarding."The HR representative was still chattering away on the other end of the phone when I, Selena White, checked the time in disbelief. It was only then that it sank in. I had actually been reborn."That's amazing! This foreign company is notoriously hard to get into. You owe me dinner tonight. We have to celebrate!" my best friend, Karen Lane, said happily, looping her arm through mine.She was right. The company was well-known internationally and offered excellent benefits. I had gone through five rounds of interviews and prepared endlessly before finally getting the offer. Yet, I couldn't feel happy at all. In my previous life, the moment I told my family the news, their expressions changed before I could even tell them how happy I was. They accused me of being greedy and said I had no shame, refusing to let me take the job.Faced with an opportunity I had fought so hard for, I decided to slip out anyway. I n

No matter what I did, money came first. Now that my job was secured, everything else became manageable.The next morning, afraid something might go wrong, I got up at dawn. After getting dressed, I left the house immediately and waited outside the office. It was only after completing all the onboarding procedures that I finally breathed a sigh of relief.Over the next few days, I claimed work was keeping me busy and stayed away from home, all while finding a new place to move into. This time, I didn't tell anyone at home, moving my things bit by bit each day.During this period, my boyfriend, Charlie Dawn, helped me out. In my previous life, after my legs were broken and I was locked at home, he couldn't reach me no matter how hard he tried. He asked around and even went to the police to try to find me.Unfortunately, I died before anyone could find me. I didn't tell him about my previous life. I only said I had fallen out with my family and needed his help.After I had moved most

"David, what are you doing? Hurry up and throw that shameless man out of here! We mustn't be associated with this kind of disgrace!"Dad charged forward with the stick raised, but David stepped in and blocked him."Have you lost your mind, too?" Dad fumed. "Why are you siding with an outsider?"David ignored him completely. Instead, he plastered on a flattering smile and turned to Charlie. "Mr. Dawn, what are you doing here? You and Selena…"Leaning against Charlie, I straightened up and sneered, "You idiot… Did you really think you got the job because of your talent? Without me, you'd never get a job that's easy and pays well."David had spent two whole years doing nothing but playing video games at home. My parents were frantic watching him waste away. By chance, Charlie's company was in the gaming industry.I had asked Charlie to give David a position so that he'd have something to do. I didn't want to hurt his pride or make him the office laughingstock, so I kept it a secret.

The wedding day arrived quickly. We didn't invite many people. Charlie's parents were gone, and he wasn't close to his relatives. There simply weren't many guests to invite.The ceremony began smoothly. As Charlie lifted the ring, about to slide it onto my finger, I heard Mom's inner thoughts again."What a cursed match! Charlie is so outstanding. Selena doesn't deserve him at all. "She's had several abortions already. Back in college, she loved sleeping around. No matter how much I warned her, she never listened. Now she's somehow found a decent guy to pick up the pieces for her."My heart lurched when I heard that. I looked up, and Charlie's smile had faded, replaced by a wary, suspicious look. It seemed Charlie could hear Mom's inner thoughts, too.His hand froze in midair as he was about to put the ring on my finger. The emcee sensed something was off and hurriedly urged him on, trying to keep things moving."Charlie?" I whispered urgently. "What are you doing? Everyone's wa

"You've been lying to me all these years! How dare you!" Dad was trembling with anger and slapped Mom across the face.Her first love, Jasper, just stood back, watching from a distance, too afraid to step in. Upon seeing that, I couldn't help but sneer, "Mom, look! That man doesn't even love you."Dad heard me and wasn't about to let Jasper walk away unpunished. He yelled, "You bastard! You slept with my wife! I'm going to kill you!"I couldn't believe I hadn't realized how blinded by love Mom could be. She'd let herself get hit without fighting back, but the moment Jasper was in danger, she jumped to protect him.The three of them crashed together in a chaotic tangle. David stood off to the side, completely dumbfounded."Come at me instead! Don't touch Jasper!" Mom screamed.There was no way Mom could stand up to Dad. With a single push, he sent her sprawling several feet across the room, landing right in front of the champagne tower.A bottle of champagne happened to be nearby
