Book Reset Novels & Stories

It took Daisy ten years to transform from a humble street vendor into a star investor in the corporate world. I stood by her side for every single one of those ten years. During our darkest year, I threw away every last drop of my self-respect and begged my estranged mother just for twenty dollars to buy us a decent meal. Looking back into Daisy’s heartbroken, tear-filled eyes, I gave her a soft smile and asked just one thing: "On the day the company finally goes public on Nasdaq, will you bring me with you?" She held me close and promised she would. Years later, when her company’s empire was soaring at its absolute peak, I gently brought up my old request once more. She didn't even bot

"Are you staying here too?" "Oh! That?” My lips curved up again. “I’m just visiting," I muttered. He nodded and returned his attention to Sonia who was still turning the console over unconvincingly. "It does that when the battery is low," he said, leaning toward her. "You hold the reset button three seconds. Ms. Adler, I've told you this before." "Show me again," she said. He took it from her, pressed the button with his thumb, and held it. The device made a sound and he held it up. "See. I told you."

"You think you’re the heir because you have the DNA. But our father didn't leave us the empire. He left us the struggle. He left us the right to choose who we become." ​"A touching sentiment," Julian mocked. "But choices don't power cities. Frequencies do." ​Julian raised both hands, and the sky over Neo-Tokyo turned a bruised purple. The "Kill-Switch" that Vesper had failed to trigger on the moon was being rebuilt right here, in the heart of the city, using Julian as the transmitter. ​"The Global Reset begins tonight," Julian announced. "And the Vanes will be the first ones to be 'Updated'."

“Oh… this is bad.” I glare upward. “You don’t get to erase them.” The ancient presence does not react to my anger. “Experimental layer exceeded authorization.” The anchor core begins destabilizing. Threads snap across the network. Some anchors flicker dangerously. People across the planet cry out as the connections weaken. Dylan squeezes my hand. “What’s it doing?” The cold version of me answers. “Reset.” My heart drops. A reset now wouldn’t just wipe the system. It would erase everything we built.

Within a few minutes, we returned and saw that they are sitting on different blankets near different tress like before. I again knelt before him and started cleaning his face with a small cloth while he stared at me. He closed his eyes when I told him to, and I finished cleaning his face completely. “A little lipstick is there on your lips, and that’s all.” I said, sitting back when I saw that I can’t remove it completely. “It’s ok! People will think something else when they see that.” He said opening his eyes. “Wait!” I said and again started rubbing his lips with even more pressure, and finally it is gone.

" She walked out. I hit the back of my head on the bed. I hated myself making my mom upset but what could I do. I would make it up to her. I made a mental note. But, I hadn't forgotten about him yet and he would pay for tonight. *** I walked out of my bathroom and landed straight on my bed still in pajamas and a messy bun. I pulled out my phone from under my pillow and strolled through my messages. Just then a message notification popped up. Ethan: Good Morning, you up? Malia: Morning, I’m up. Ethan: How’s the house arrest going? Malia: Not bad. I just can’t think of anything to do to get mom to lift the ban.

"Host, all things follow the law of cause and effect. I've recorded every hardship you've suffered in this world. That way, once you return to the real world, your health will be restored. You're essentially cashing in your future pain ahead of time." So that was how it worked. Hearing that, I didn't feel as bitter about everything anymore. Either way, this body was already completely broken, so there wasn't anything left to be attached to. Fortunately, I'd already started researching a cure for cancer back in college. I found my old backups and followed the original procedures, and the research advanced quickly. I threw myself, heart and soul, into the experiments. As long as Caroline conti

Fiona followed up with a sugary smile. "I have a really sensitive nose, so don't take it personally." Jasper gave a slight frown of his own and said, "Babe, I know things have been rough for you these past few days. I just got back from the time portal. Here, I brought something for our son." He reached into a bag and pulled out a cheap bootleg action figure, placing it in my hands. If this had been any other time, I would have thrown it in his face on the spot, the way I always did with whatever half-hearted gift he used to brush me off. Not today, however. I did not care anymore.

Golden light spilled across the surface of the sea, so beautiful that it stole my breath. I was still here. I was still alive. The system spoke again, but this time, its voice was no longer cold and robotic. "Detected that player has completed self-awakening and reclaimed personal agency in the last ten days. Strategy target recalibrated from 'being loved by others' to 'loving oneself.' Mission successful. Reward is a new life." I went still. Then, I started to laugh. So that was it. The real goal of this whole strategy game had never been Blake. It had been me.

He must be furious! [Feels good! The spot's finally back where it belongs. First step in crushing that impostor's dream!] [Nice one, Horace! Dump the trashy troublemaker girl, go to the same university as the female lead, and take back everything that belongs to you. That's the real heir storyline!] I didn't say a word. Horace let out a deep breath, as if he was finally releasing all the frustration he had carried since being reborn. "Brian, I'm really sorry about this, but this admission spot was always supposed to be mine. Getting back what belongs to me feels pretty damn good. Without a top university on your record… What do you think you'll ever amount to?"
