Reborn and Done Being Fooled
On the day I married the most feared woman in the underworld, words suddenly appeared before my eyes.
[Marry her and you're dead! She's actually in love with your stepfather. This whole thing is a trap to make him swoop in and steal the bride!
[Run now while you still can. Otherwise, she'll auction off your virginity tonight in front of everyone and let her rich girlfriends have their turn with you!
[Three days from now, after she's had you beaten within an inch of your life, she'll tell everyone you died of a sudden illness and dump your body in the outskirts for the wolves!]
Last time around, I bolted the moment I saw those messages. That was a mistake. I got grabbed by Yvette Sinclair's enemies and brutalized.
Meanwhile, my stepfather took my place in the wedding car and became the crime boss's pampered husband.
After narrowly escaping death and finally making it home, he was already standing in the doorway with tears in his eyes.
"I know you hate me," he said, "but why did you knock me out and throw me into another woman's bed?"
My mother didn't even let me explain. She said I had humiliated the family, and she threw me out without a second thought. Told everyone she'd never had a son like me.
My sister, the one who had always doted on me, stood there and watched me burn alive. Then she locked the door and walked away.
It wasn't until after I died that I found out the truth. My stepfather had written those messages himself.
Then I opened my eyes again, and I was back to the day of the wedding. The same words were already floating in front of me.
I watched my stepfather fuss over my tie with a warm, satisfied look on his face. I grabbed the kettle and poured boiling water all over him.
This time, I was going to give him a taste of his own medicine!
