Semua Bab When Fate Rewinds: Bab 1 - Bab 9

"You can just ride with Charles. It's a good chance to get to know each other. Maybe you'll even find a boyfriend sooner," Kahlan offered.Hearing that, Robert let out a whistle, looking between Charles Levitt and me with a suggestive grin.I felt sick to my stomach.Earlier that evening, Kahlan suddenly asked me out for dinner. I happily agreed.Only after arriving did I realize she invited me because she was meeting her online acquaintance, Robert.But Robert brought his friend Charles, who did not have a date. To keep him from feeling awkward, she deliberately called me over to keep him company.Not wanting to interfere with whatever reckless thing they were planning, I swallowed my anger.I simply waved my hand firmly and said I could take a taxi home.But Kahlan blocked me, and we ended up in a standoff for quite a while.Robert complained to her, "Kahlan, young women like this just love to act difficult, always need people to beg them again and again. I don't know what m

I looked up.Kahlan was half-naked, her upper body exposed, hanging precariously from the window ledge.One of the livestreamers who came with us immediately swung their camera toward the window, excitement written all over their face.Perhaps the group heard us coming. Just then, a filthy hand suddenly grabbed Kahlan and yanked her back inside.Mrs. Ellis collapsed into hysterics. "You animal! Let go of my daughter!"I told her to call the police, and that took up even more time.Just then, the sounds stopped.A suffocating silence spread, heavy as death.The school was enormous, and none of us knew the layout.For safety, everyone stuck close together as we made our way toward the main building where we just saw her.But just as we reached the bottom, someone screamed, "Ahhh! Look! Is that a dead body?"I shone my flashlight over.It was Charles.A steel rebar pierced straight through his body. He was clearly beyond saving.At the sight of a corpse, even the thrill-seek

I suddenly remembered that news report from my previous life, the one about a vagrant assaulting someone that was quickly taken down.Choosing my words carefully, I warned Clarisse that if this spread online, the Albrecht family would likely pay to suppress it.Clarisse blinked, a mischievous smile playing on her lips."I know. With the Albrecht family's money, something posted one second could get taken down the next. But I never said I'd spread it online. I'm going to, hehe."I was dying of curiosity, but she refused to say more.Still, I soon found out what she did.The next day at work, just as our meeting was about to end, my boss suddenly burst out laughing.After a while, he finally composed himself and said seriously, "You all better not go messing around with stupid adventures when your lives are perfectly fine."Do you know the Albrecht family? That Rufus Albrecht, his family's rich, right? But no amount of money can fix a son who's an idiot. That moron went to some ab

Robert tapped the table lightly, and Kahlan immediately hurried over to pour him a drink.He glanced at me lazily. "You're the one behind the police report, aren't you? I can let that slide. But spreading rumors about Kahlan and me everywhere, that's going a bit too far."Still, for Kahlan's sake, I'll give you another chance. I'll contact the media. You'll appear on camera, apologize publicly, and clarify the truth."I let out a soft laugh. "The truth? Isn't it already what's being said online? Oh, sure, some versions aren't entirely accurate. Mr. Levitt here didn't voluntarily seek out those vagrants; he was forced."The wine glass shattered as it was slammed down. A hidden door in the private room swung open, revealing several well-built men inside.I twitched slightly. If the timing was not so bad, I might have laughed. Was this seriously a signal by smashing a glass?"It seems you're adamant on doing this the hard way," Robert snarled.I pushed further, glancing at the men
