Todos los capítulos de Reborn to Sabotage Dad's Cursed Watch: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 9

"Vernon? What are you daydreaming about? Come take a look at this watch I bought for your dad. It's nice, isn't it?"Mom's voice snapped me back to reality. I blinked twice and saw her smiling gently at me.However, the moment I saw that Patek Philippe watch, gleaming with a cold, metallic sheen, I reacted at once. My scalp prickled, cold sweat broke out across my back, and my fingers trembled uncontrollably. The horrible images from my past life flooded my mind almost immediately.After Mom swapped out Dad's soul, her secret boyfriend—who was also Dad's best friend—Bryan Glover, assumed Dad's identity and tormented me all day and night.He would beat me up and berate me at the slightest trigger, throw out all of my belongings, and slander me. He'd destroy my reputation in the eyes of the public, painting me as an ingrate with a dark, twisted personality."Go to hell, Vernon Cohen!"When I found out the truth, I tried calling the police and telling our relatives about it. But m

When I got home from school that evening, I saw Bryan sitting comfortably on our couch the moment I walked in. He sat right next to Dad, his eyes fixed on the high-quality replica watch on Dad's wrist. He didn't even bother hiding the envy and anticipation in his eyes."This watch suits you really well, Joshua. I'm so envious of you for having Darlene as your wife."Dad put on a show of male chauvinism."Of course. She's very thoughtful and always pays attention to all these tiny details. I've been wearing it these past few days and can't bear to take it off for even one second."Mom listened to their conversation from the side and immediately made eye contact with Bryan. They could barely suppress the corners of their mouth from lifting smugly.They were convinced that their plan was completely foolproof. All they had to do now was to wait until the charity gala for Dad's soul to swap with Bryan's, and Bryan would then be able to usurp the family fortune and take over Dad's life.

Mom was completely stiff all over. She stumbled back in terror when she saw "Amber" lunging at her like that."Don't come any closer!" she shrieked."Darlene! Don't you know who I am anymore? We've been together for three years! You told me that you would marry me!"This time, the gazes of the guests in the banquet hall shifted instantly."Three years? Darlene had been seeing Bryan for three whole years?""Goodness! Mr. Cohen had been cheated on for years!""They have absolutely no shame at all!"Mom's face turned red as she shook her head frantically to deny it. "No! What are you saying? I don't know who you are!""Amber" was furious. She lunged at Mom to hit her. "Darlene Sutton! You bitch! You were the one who seduced me first! And you think that you can sweep me under the bus now that we've been exposed?"They began clawing and tearing at each other in an ugly spectacle. Dad just stood to the side, watching them have a catfight with a cold smirk on his lips."That's enoug

Every day, Amber would strut around in Bryan's body in sharp suits and ties, hanging out in bars and shopping for custom suits at the mall. She happily spent all of the allowance Dad gave her, but Dad didn't seem to mind and just thought that she was kind of charming.Once, Amber turned up at our house as a guest. She wore a navy suit, slicked her hair back neatly, and donned brown leather shoes on her feet—looking for all the world like a handsome young man.Dad stared at her for a long while and couldn't help but remark, "How have I never noticed that Bryan used to have really good features?"Amber broke into a huge grin. She exclaimed, "Of course, Mr. Cohen! Look at my pecs! Look at my chest! Aren't they just beautiful?"Dad was speechless for a bit.I said, "Can't you please stop talking about your chest?"Amber rolled her eyes and said, "Why can't I? I'm a fit and handsome man now. Should I be waiting for a proper time to show them off instead? Do I need to make a reservatio

Bryan was forced onto the streets again for the third time, but it was now the middle of winter. He shivered violently in the winter cold, huddling against himself under an overpass bridge, trying to find some warmth.But by the time anyone found him again, he was already dead.His body was frozen stiff, yet a bizarre smile lingered on his face. Just before dying, he'd been muttering under his breath, "I am Joshua Cohen… I've finally become Joshua Cohen…"The police and ambulance were called, and they ruled the cause of death as freezing. They brought the body back, but since nobody came to claim it, the local council had to handle the funeral arrangements instead.When Amber heard about it, she went silent for a long time. Finally, she said, "You know, you don't usually get burned unless you play with fire."I agreed wholeheartedly with her.…As for Mom, life wasn't any easier for her either.She managed to find a job as a fast-food server that offered room and board after le
