Perang dingin memasuki hari ketiga, tunanganku sengaja menyetujui usulan asistennya untuk melakukan perjalanan keliling dengan mobil. Dia mengira aku akan cemburu dan berebut seperti biasanya. Namun siapa sangka, sebulan kemudian saat dia kembali, dia mendapati aku sudah berubah. Dia membantu asistennya merebut proyekku. Aku tidak lagi ngambek lalu mengundurkan diri, malah mondar-mandir sibuk membantu, lalu menuliskan proposal untuknya dengan rajin. Demi asisten itu mendapatkan bonus akhir tahun, dia menghancurkan desain yang sudah susah payah kuselesaikan. Aku pun tidak lagi berusaha membuktikan diri, melainkan malah menanggung semua kesalahan dan membiarkan dia menghukumku sesuka hati. Bahkan ketika dia hendak menaikkan jabatan asisten itu menjadi direktur utama perusahaan, aku tidak marah. Aku malah secara sukarela menyerahkan seluruh saham yang ada di tanganku, membiarkan tunanganku membaginya dengan bebas. Asisten itu merasa sangat puas. "Lihat, benar 'kan yang kubilang? Kak Penny itu tipe yang nggak bisa dilawan secara keras. Harus diperlakukan dengan sikap dingin, baru ada efeknya. Pasti karena beberapa hari kamu pergi, hasilnya langsung kelihatan. Dia takut kehilangan kamu, makanya sekarang jadi patuh begitu." Tunanganku percaya pada ucapan asisten itu sepenuhnya, bahkan memuji kepintaran asisten itu. Setelah itu, dia sengaja mencariku untuk menaikkan jabatan dan gajiku, bahkan untuk pertama kalinya berjanji akan memberiku sebuah pernikahan yang tak terlupakan. Namun, dia tampaknya lupa. Selama masa liburan itu, dia sudah menandatangani surat pengunduran diriku. Dan aku juga sudah putus dengannya. Sejak saat itu, kami memutuskan hubungan sepenuhnya, tanpa ada lagi keterkaitan apa pun.

Like me, it seemed my younger sister was reborn. In our past life, she was obsessed with the golden boy of the elite circle.

To suffer like I did." I just smiled. Coming back to life didn’t make her any smarter. Even if she lived a hundred lifetimes, she would never be a match for me.

Lorsque le criminel me torture à mort, je suis enceinte de trois mois. Mais mon mari Marc – le détective le plus éminent de la ville – est à l’hôpital avec son premier amour, Emma, l’accompagnant pour son examen médical. Il y a trois jours, il m’a demandé de donner mon rein à Emma. Lorsque j’ai refusé, en lui expliquant que j’attendais notre enfant depuis deux mois, son regard s’est glacé. « Arrête de mentir », a-t-il grondé. « Tu es juste égoïste, tu essaies de laisser Emma mourir. » Il s’est arrêté sur l’autoroute sombre. « Descends », a-t-il ordonné. « Rentre chez toi à pied, puisque tu es aussi sans cœur. » Je suis restée là, dans l’obscurité, et j’ai été kidnappée par le criminel vengeur, que Marc avait autrefois emprisonné. Il m’a coupé la langue. Avec une satisfaction cruelle, il a utilisé mon téléphone pour appeler mon mari. La réponse de Marc a été brève et froide : « Peu importe ce que c’est, l’examen médical d’Emma est plus important ! Elle a besoin de moi maintenant. » Le criminel a laissé échapper un rire sombre. « Eh bien, eh bien… On dirait que le grand détective valorise plus la vie de son ex que celle de sa femme actuelle. » Lorsque Marc arrive sur la scène du crime, des heures plus tard, il est horrifié par la brutalité infligée au cadavre. Il condamne avec colère le meurtrier pour avoir traité une femme enceinte avec autant de cruauté. Mais il ne connaît pas que le corps mutilé devant lui est celui de sa propre femme – moi.
