Danielle squealed with excitement, her laughter mingling with Talia's screams.
Sitting down and shaking her champagne glass, Danielle asked, "Where should I stab next?"
"How about you, Brodie?"
Brodie? Brodie!
Talia and I both looked towards Brodie.
In my past life, I had only met Brodie after being introduced by Trevon, but this time, had the wheel of fate turned differently?
Talia's eyes widened in fury as she struggled to spit out the rag in her mouth.
She screamed desperately, "Brodie, save me."
In her mind, she was reborn and had exchanged lives.
Then everything should happen as it did in her previous life.
Brodie should fall for her at first sight and pursue her passionately.
Seeing Brodie now felt like destiny had arranged it.
After all, a prince would always save a suffering Cinderella at critical moments.
But Brodie merely lifted his gaze and glanced at her in confusion.
Then he walked straight towards me.
He handed me the knife.
"Why don't you let this young lady take over?"
Talia's face was full of disbelief. Her frantic curses made everyone uncomfortable.
Therefore, her mouth was soon gagged again.
I looked at Brodie, wondering if he was reborn too.
However, his gaze toward me was strange, showing no signs of recognition.
But why me?
Just as I was about to ask, Danielle's serious scolding came from behind.
Danielle and the wealthy heirs quickly brushed off the situation and dispersed.
Talia was helped into the hall.
As she passed by me, her eyes were filled with the same resentment as in my past life.
I slept deeply that night.
The nightmares of my past life repeated again and again.
I cried and begged Talia to spare my child.
But my baby still fell lifeless in a pool of blood.
I awoke gasping for breath, the dark surroundings feeling eerily familiar.
It looked like the abandoned warehouse from my past life.
Suddenly, a blinding light struck, making it impossible for me to open my eyes.
"Evelyn, you're reborn too, aren't you?"
Talia's eyes were bloodshot and fierce as she turned on the light.
"What are you talking about?" I stared at her blankly.
"Whether you've been reborn or not, I won't let you appear in front of Brodie again.
"Evelyn, it's been a long time since you saw your adoptive parents, hasn't it?
"In your past life, they were supported by your and Danielle's generous transfers every month, so they never bothered you.
"But this time, they are very poor."
