Reborn: Settling the Score with Those Who Betrayed Me

Raindrops hit me one by one, and despite it being summer, the cold felt unbearable. I lay in the mud, covered in blood, as my husband and former best friend dug a hole to bury me. Alice, my best friend, who had always struggled growing up, had been with me since university, where I paid for everything. Now, she and Nill, my husband, had betrayed me. "You took my place," Alice spat, "Now your wealth is ours." Though I was still alive, Alice ordered Nill to bury me deeper. They didn't care if I lived or died. As my consciousness faded and a white light appeared, I vowed that if I survived, I would get revenge.

Chapter 3

At dinner, watching this pair sitting together, I deliberately dropped my fork on the floor. As I leaned over to pick it up, I saw Alice using her toe, painted with bright red nail polish, to scratch Nill's foot. So, they had started even before my marriage. It seemed like the plan to kill me was already in the works.

"I have something I want to announce," Nill suddenly said. "Naran and I have known each other for a while, we've gotten to know each other well, and we have a strong emotional foundation. I want..." He stood up as he spoke, pulled a ring from his pocket, and suddenly knelt in front of me, looking at me with deep affection. "Marry me."

I lowered my head and continued eating, pretending I hadn't heard.

Seeing I didn't react, Nill repeated, "Naran, marry me. Will you?"

"I won't," I said flatly, as everyone looked on expectantly.

The air in the room seemed to freeze. No one could believe I wouldn't agree. In my past life, everyone could see how much I adored Nill and how obedient I was.

"Naran? How could you not want to?" Alice asked in shock.

I stared into her eyes and, feigning difficulty, said, "Alice,why didn't you tell me earlier that you also liked Nill? We're good friends, I would've given him to you."

Alice's face went pale. "What nonsense are you talking about? I... I... how could I? Did you misunderstand something?"

"Naran, stop being unreasonable!" Nill angrily retorted.

"Naran, how can you say that about Nill and Alice...?" my mom asked, shocked.

"Mom, our family should support them," I said calmly.

"Have you misunderstood something?" Nill urgently grabbed my hand, trying to explain.

I picked up my phone and showed the surveillance footage in my room to everyone present. The footage showed them coming out of the bathroom and having "intimate contact" in my room.

The surveillance was installed before my marriage, when I bought a dog for my parents as a companion.

It was meant to monitor the dog, but in this life, it caught their affair. I had expected them not to behave honestly after they both went to the restroom, so I opened the app on my phone and, as I had hoped, found exactly what I was looking for.

"Nill, you beast. You and her have been bullying my daughter-get out of my house!" My dad roared.

Seeing my father so furious, I thought of my past life-when I died, my parents couldn't find me and must have been so worried and heartbroken. Seeing this, I couldn't forgive Nill and Alice.

My mom, heartbroken, said, "Nill, how could you and Alice treat Naran this way? Naran has been more than kind to both of you... now leave our house."

I comforted my parents, saying, "Dad, Mom, don't be angry. Don't let them upset you. You are the most important people to me."

I grabbed my wine glass and poured it over the heads of the "dogs," shouting that if they didn't leave, I'd call the police. Reluctantly, they left.

My parents, afraid I might be upset, suggested I take some time off from the company and go for a break. I reassured them I was fine and not to worry. I wouldn't let this end here. It was far from over.
