Chapter 2

"James, something huge just happened at the medical exam station. Vivian from our class is seven weeks pregnant. James, do you know whose child it is?"

My roommate John's fragmented words reached my ears, pulling me back from the terror of death.

But I clearly remembered my past life.

Because I had admitted to getting Vivian pregnant, I became the object of everyone's ridicule.

My parents were disgraced because of me and attacked by public opinion online.

My dad was fired by his construction site boss, and my mom developed late-stage cancer.

Not a single relative was willing to lend money to a rapist's family. My entire family was completely bled dry by Vivian and her family.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but pull my lips into a mocking smile.

I never expected to be reborn.

Back to the day my roommate told me about Vivian's pregnancy.

This time, I would never take the blame for Vivian again.

I shrugged at John and said, "How would I know whose child it is?"

Hearing my words, John put his hand on my shoulder.

"James, do you want to come with me to see the drama with Vivian?"

As soon as he finished speaking, John suddenly realized something and quickly covered his mouth.

"Sorry, James. I forgot you used to like Vivian so much. If you don't want to go with me, I'll just go by myself."

Looking at John, I remembered that in my past life when my mom got sick, he was the only one who lent me money and generously told me I could pay him back whenever I wanted.

Thinking of this, my eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Seeing me cry, John thought I was upset about Vivian and said to me in a panic:

"Don't be sad. That woman Vivian isn't worth your affection. I really don't know what to do with you. I'll treat you to dinner after school today."

Hearing John's words, I shook my head at him.

"John, I'm fine."

"I want to see Vivian too. Don't worry, I don't like Vivian anymore."

Hearing that I said I was fine, John finally felt relieved. When we arrived at the infirmary, we heard my former mother-in-law arguing with the teacher inside.
