All Chapters of I Let My Three Childhood Friends Die: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Ms. Abigail Benson, your guaranteed admission agreement with Mephton University has been finalized. You won't need to sit for tomorrow's college entrance exam."After hanging up with the admissions office, I looked at my parents sitting on the couch, both red-eyed from emotion, and gave them a firm nod."My sweetheart…"Mom covered her mouth as tears streamed down her face."We must've been blind in our previous life," Dad growled through clenched teeth. "How could we have asked you to help those three ungrateful brats?"Connected by blood, after I was reborn, I had bared the full horror of my past life to them. My parents hadn't doubted me for a second, simply pulling me into their arms and holding me tight.I walked over and took their trembling hands."Mom, Dad, let's keep the admission offer a secret for now."In my previous life, I had resolutely given up my guaranteed admission spot just so I could attend the same college as my three childhood friends. It wasn't until th

The next morning, with less than two hours remaining before students needed to enter the exam centers, I opened my eyes to dozens of missed calls blinking on my phone screen.I tapped open my messaging app. The group chat with the three guys was flooded with texts."Abby, where are you? Why aren't you answering your calls?""We miss you. Come meet us so we can study together."The words "study together" sent a chill down my spine. In my past life, they had used this exact excuse to lure me into that dark alley before shoving me straight into hell with their own hands.My expression was icy as I continued to scroll down. At around 3:00 am, the tone of the messages abruptly shifted."Abby, do you have 200 thousand dollars on hand? Lucy's family is dealing with an emergency, and they need life-saving money. Can you figure out a way to scrounge that up and get it to us?"I scoffed at the pathetic excuse.Family emergency? Please. They had merely been pinned down by the thugs at the

Everyone around us instantly fell into a deathly silence. Parents waiting outside the exam center, security guards, and the teachers who hadn't gone far after seeing their students off—all of their eyes turned to stare at me.Mrs. McFadden swung her hand at me, intending to slap me across the face, but Dad reacted instantly. He caught her wrist in one swift motion and shoved her away hard."Don't you dare lay a hand on my daughter!" Dad snarled, the veins in his forehead bulging."I'm going to kill you, you vicious little bitch!" Mrs. McFadden shrieked, her hair disheveled. "I was wondering why your parents suddenly said you received guaranteed admission! So it was because you did such underhanded, despicable things! You'll pay with your life for ruining my son's future!"Mrs. Burke lunged forward, too, jabbing her finger right in my face. "Have you no shame, Abigail Benson? You've been throwing yourself at Greg since you were kids. Now that you see he doesn't like you, you resort

The photographs fluttered through the air, scattering across the street outside the exam center like snowflakes. A light morning breeze caught a few of them, sending them swirling through the air, before they landed squarely on Mrs. McFadden's face.She instinctively reached out to grab them to take a look. Her eyes instantly widened as a strangled sound escaped her throat.In the photo, her prized athlete son was kneeling stark naked next to a table in a private room. There was even a dog collar around his neck. Next to him, Gregory and Wendell were just as naked, crouched in a corner with their hands over their heads, like three chickens waiting to be slaughtered.Before he could stop himself, a younger parent in the crowd blurted, "Wow! And he thinks he's a player with that size?"The crowd immediately descended into chaos.The parents and classmates who had been pointing fingers at me moments earlier were now scrambling to pick up the photographs, passing them around like spec

The moment the words "criminal case" were uttered, the trio's fate was effectively sealed.Missing the CEA was just the beginning. A permanent criminal record, expulsion, and even impending jail time—that was where this road would ultimately lead."No… No, this can't be real…"Mrs. Trudeau's legs gave out beneath her. She collapsed onto the floor, her eyes hollow as she stared blankly ahead and muttered to herself. To raise a son who would rank first in his year, she'd quit her job and had dedicated 18 years of her life to his education.Now, it had all gone up in smoke."This is all your fault!" Mr. McFadden roared.All of a sudden, as if he'd lost his mind, he lunged for Mr. Burke and punched him right in the face."It was your bastard son who insisted on dragging my Jeremy to the nightclub! Give me back my son's future!""Bullshit!"Refusing to take that lying down, Mr. Burke swung back immediately, striking Mr. McFadden right back."It was clearly your idiot son Jeremy wh
