Chapter 1

"The math tournament has three different sections and will take place over three days," the homeroom teacher, Daniel Potts, explained. "Each section's scores will be tallied on the same day. I urge all participants to prepare accordingly."My eyes widened at Mr. Potts' words.Math tournament? Could he be talking about the same math tournament that eventually tore my family apart?Didn't I already live through that nightmare?Only when I looked at the date on the screen did I realize that I had been reborn.I had been sent back to the day before the math tournament, which meant that I had a chance to change my tragic fate.Before I was able to snap back to my senses, Alyssa Ford's grating voice sounded in my ears, taking on a provocative edge. "Stop daydreaming, Clara Toland. A country bumpkin from the sticks like you will never surpass me no matter how hard you try."I'm going to score 20 more points than you in each section of the tournament. You're destined to be trampled unde

Alyssa's horrible words continued to echo in my ears.I did everything that I could to force myself to calm down even as scenes from my past life flashed through my mind.I couldn't figure out what went wrong.Suddenly, an idea pushed itself to the forefront of my thoughts.In my past life, Alyssa sat behind me and to my right during the math tournament. It would have been as easy as breathing for her to peek at my exam paper from that position.Although the math tournament examiners were incredibly strict, Alyssa had plenty of tricks up her sleeve. She must have found a way to copy my answers and intentionally planned it so she would score 20 more points than me. Her goal must have been to break me mentally all along.I convinced myself that my hypothesis was right.I leaped to my feet and ran to the office."I want to change my seat in the exam hall during the tournament, Mr. Potts!"I was a math genius, but I was born to an extremely poor family. Everyone in my grade found

Mr. Potts approached me to comfort me after the scores were announced.I nodded in response to his words, but my mind still felt sluggish. I robotically turned my head to the side and coincidentally met Alyssa's dark gaze.A chill ran up my spine in that split second.Alyssa lowered her voice and hissed, "I told you, didn't I? No matter how hard you try, I'll always trample you under my feet. 20 points—no more, no less. You should just accept your fate, Clara."I gritted my teeth. My voice was shaking when I asked, "Why?"A mocking smile stretched across Alyssa's lips. "Because someone like you doesn't deserve to exist on the same level as me. I can use these 20 points to toy with you and have you in the palm of my hand for the rest of my life if I want."I barked out an indignant laugh. "You might be able to get away with it now, Alyssa, but don't think that you can keep your despicable tactics a secret for the rest of your life."Alyssa suddenly raised her voice, sounding a li

The next morning, Alyssa looked down her nose at me when she passed me, saying, "It's the last section of the tournament, Clara. Don't forget to do your best. If I score 20 more points than you again, the prize money that can save your parents' lives will be in my hands."I'm curious to see what you'll do when you lose the money you need to pay for your parents' medical bills. Don't tell me you'll resort to selling your body?"Alyssa cackled to herself before she left.I silently lowered my head and clenched my fists tightly, digging my nails into my palms.Mom and Dad were still depending on me to pay their medical bills, but I was being toyed with repeatedly by Alyssa. If this continued, I would end up being trampled under her feet.Was it impossible for me to change my fate of having my family torn apart even though I had been given another chance at life?…When the exam began, the other students kept their heads low as they scribbled away on their papers with serious expres

"Alyssa Ford (20 points)."I was utterly flabbergasted.Why did Alyssa score exactly 20 more points than me even when I submitted a blank paper?Alyssa suddenly yanked my arm, causing me to topple forward uncontrollably. She dragged me to the restroom and began interrogating me with a crazed look in her eyes."Have you lost your mind, Clara? Why did you submit a blank paper?"I scoffed and freed myself from her grasp."Why are you getting so worked up when I'm the one who submitted a blank paper? You're the one who said that you'd score 20 more points than me no matter what happens. I didn't know you were that stupid. You actually just scored exactly 20 more points than me."I pressed closer to her and continued, "What I really want to know, Alyssa, is what underhanded methods you've been using."An uneasy look flickered across Alyssa's face. She lifted her head to glare at me. "So what if I'm not the champion of the math tournament? My family has power and authority. I can sti

I leaped to my feet in anger, shouting, "Do you have some loose screws in your head, Glen Redfield?"Glen was clearly shocked by my response. After all, I had never raised my voice at him before.Unfortunately for him, I had already made up my mind. I needed to stay as far away as I could from a bastard like him. It was just that I had been so caught up with other things this time around that I hadn't found the time to deal with him yet.Glen's eyes reddened. "You and I have nothing to do with each other from this day on, Clara," he spat. "A filthy woman like you doesn't deserve to be with me."I slammed my palms on the table. "What are you talking about? Why are you calling me filthy?"Glen scoffed, his eyes shining with disdain. "Drop the act. Everyone knows that your parents' medical bills cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Where did you get the money from?"I glanced at Alyssa, knowing that only she was capable of finding out about this so quickly."It's impossible for

The champion of the math tournament had been guaranteed a spot in Franvale University.Although Alyssa didn't win the tournament, she was still in high spirits. She was happy as long as I wasn't the champion."You have to work hard, Clara. After losing the math tournament, the only opportunity you have left to change your fate is the SATs."She didn't give me a chance to respond. She just stared at me with wide eyes before exclaiming in faux surprise, "Don't tell me that you're going to submit a blank paper again?"I scoffed as I lifted my head, saying, "Getting accepted into Franvale University isn't a problem for me based on my actual results. But what about you? I'm afraid that just getting accepted into a regular undergraduate course will be a tall order for you, considering your dismal capabilities.""You truly are an idiot, Clara," Alyssa retorted with a sneer. "I already told you that I can trample you under my feet for the rest of my life because of those 20 points. You'll

The school organized a centralized score-checking session on the day the SAT scores were released.Alyssa had brought her parents along with her.Alyssa's father, Mr. Ford, got up on stage and gave a speech before the scores were released."My daughter has always been a genius. At first, I planned to send her to a university abroad, but she insisted that she wanted to enroll in Franvale University. My guess is that she'll score at least 1,500 points on her SATs."Thunderous applause erupted from the crowd when Mr. Ford finished his speech. Both students and parents tripped over themselves to curry favor with him."Alyssa will definitely be the provincial top scorer this time. She already won first place in so many competitions.""You're right. Her father is such an outstanding man. It only makes sense that he would have such a brilliant daughter.""I'm so jealous. Not only is she rich and pretty, but her grades are excellent too. She's got such a bright future ahead of her!"Al

I shoved Alyssa, causing her to stumble to the ground. I said mockingly, "I guess your system malfunctioned."The color drained from Alyssa's face when I mentioned "the system"."You… You know about the system?""I'm not stupid. Did you really think that I would fall for your lies? That you somehow had such precise control over the scores that you could score exactly 20 more points than me every time?"Besides, I had lived two different lives.Alyssa scoffed and quickly regained her composure. "So what if I don't have the system anymore? So what if I only scored a little over 300 points? My family is rich. I can attend any of the universities abroad. "But what about you? You scored zero points. Do you believe that you can sell your body for the rest of your life with your looks, Clara?"I nodded with a laugh. "You're right. Selling one's body suits you more than me. I've never prostituted myself."I pulled out an acceptance letter from my bag and whirled around to face the cro

"Ryan Ford, you're suspected of attempting murder. Please come with us back to the station for further questioning," the police officer said.The sudden twist happened too fast.A few minutes later, the police officers took Mr. Ford away with them.In my past life, I had asked Mr. Potts to help me organize a fundraiser when I didn't have enough money to pay Mom's and Dad's medical bills. However, they passed away before I could collect enough money.When I was reborn, I couldn't shake the feeling that there was something odd about their deaths.The doctor had told me ages ago that although Mom and Dad were suffering a lot, they could still survive for another year and a half even if they didn't undergo surgery.However, in my past life, both of them passed away even though it had only been a few days.So this time, I kept my eyes peeled for any anomalies.I eventually discovered that Mr. and Mrs. Ford were the biggest shareholders for the hospital where Mom and Dad were staying
