So hot. This unusual heat felt like being thrown into an oven.
Emma Moore opened her eyes and sat up abruptly.
Looking at the strange and yet familiar surroundings, her brain went blank for a moment.
What was going on?
Wasn't she dead...
"Emma, are you okay?"
A worried voice rang in her ears. Emma looked up under her thick lashes and saw a familiar face.
Irene Miller?!
Looking around in confusion, Emma gradually collected herself. This familiar scene made her realize something.
She was...
Reborn!
She was reborn back to five years ago, right before the moment of the biggest turn of her life.
Hah...
Emma smiled bitterly. Her eyes turned misty with tears were welling up. Soon, those pearl-like beads fell from the corners of her eyes.
But shortly after, in the dim light, her eyes turned deep and cold, as intimidating as those belonged to a demon that had just crawled out of hell, demanding for destruction regardless of all consequences!
Gaia Field and Zachary Sanders!
"I'll make you pay for what you've done!"
"Emma, are you okay? You're crying and laughing! Don't scare me!"
Irene grabbed Emma's hand, her face full of contemplation.
Irene was her best friend in the previous life!
And this woman was absolutely involved in her tragic death in the end.
Five years ago, Emma had been invited to a movie's casting. Irene had proposed to go celebrating in a bar. They got so drunk after that.
Unexpected, Emma's drink was drugged. When she woke up, she found herself in a room surrounded by naked men. And then, the police happened to check the room, arresting her for being suspected of prostitution. Emma had ruined her Moore family's reputation.
As a result, her chance to participate the casting was gone.
And the beginning of her suffering came...
"I'm okay. I've drunk too much. You guys go on... I'll go out for some fresh air."
Emma waved her hand, pretending to be drunk, drawling her voice.
"Don't go, Emma, another shot with me. Here you go."
Irene was anxious seeing Emma about to leave. If she didn't drink this shot, which was drugged, how could they carry out their plan?
"All right, only one more shot. I really can't drink anymore!"
After one life, how could Emma not be able to read Irene's thought? She took the shot glass in the other's hand as if she knew nothing. In Irene's eager gaze, Emma's pink lips slowly touched the glass.
This time, she didn't miss the gloating glimpse in Irene's eyes.
"Bang—"
Just as Emma was about to drink the content of the shot glass, a harsh gunshot resounded from the street.
Everyone was taken aback, subconsciously looking out the window.
Emma took this opportunity to quickly swap the shot glass in her hand with Irene's!
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. Is it a gunshot?"
"Just firecrackers. What gunshot it could be? You've watched too many action movies. Let's get back to drink!"
Irene pulled herself together. Since her focus was on the shot glass in Emma's hand, she could only rest assure when the girl drank it.
"Irene, I wish our casting tomorrow would be a success! Cheers!"
Raising the shot glass again, Emma smiled and clinked her glass with Irene's, then watched the other chugging the liquid in the swapped glass down her throat!
If Irene couldn't wait to die, let she do it naturally!
......
Putting down the shot glass, Emma said she wanted some fresh air to sober up and walked outside. Actually, she just didn't want to see the disgusting, lascivious scene that was about to happen inside.
As Irene thought that Emma had drunk the drug, she didn't stop her from going outside.
It would be better if Emma went out. If the drug worked on her outside, things would turn even worse, and Irene herself would be happier!
As soon as Emma stepped out, Irene sent a message to Gaia, telling her things were done here.
