Reborn: Settling the Score with Those Who Betrayed Me

The next day at work, every colleague's inbox was flooded with the video of the affair between the pair at my house. Everyone was shocked.

"How did Nill end up with Alice?"

"Yeah! I heard Nill and Naran were about to get married."

"She's the mistress, huh?"

"Such shamelessness, stealing her best friend's boyfriend."

"Naran is so pitiful."

Colleagues were chattering away, expressing their opinions. I fully capitalized on the power of public opinion, gaining sympathy and pity from everyone and dominating the narrative.

When Nill and Alice walked in, all eyes turned to them. They looked completely stunned. When they opened their inboxes, both of them were about to explode. Alice ran to the break room and started crying-not out of shame, but because she was scared.

Nill immediately texted me: Do you really have to do this? That make us all embarrassed.

I shot back: Whoever did this is the one who should be embarrassed.

Since I exposed their affair via email, they became the talk of the entire company. Well, it was more about the three of us, but compared to what I went through in my past life, this was nothing. The boss, worried I might fall into depression, assigned me the overseas project to give me a change of scenery.

In the break room, I bumped into Alice. She tried to avoid me, but I blocked her path. Smirking, I said, "You got the scumbag, and I got the chance to go abroad. Who do you think got the better deal?"

She tried to walk away, but I stepped in front of her again. She panicked and yelled for me to move. I stayed put, deliberately blocking her and grabbed her hand that was holding a cup. The more frustrated she got, the more she pulled at me. Hearing footsteps from colleagues approaching, I turned into the villain of a drama, splashing the water from her cup onto me.

When the colleagues came in, they saw my chest was soaked and looked at Alice. It was clear who had done it, just the way I wanted.

"Alice, I'm just asking why you stole my boyfriend," I shouted. Then I splashed the rest of the water on her. I told her, "As long as I'm here, you'll always be the mistress-unless you two get married."

Alice glared at me with hatred, said nothing, didn't even try to explain the water incident, and just walked out.

Back in my office, I looked through the glass at the empty desks of the two. They must've gone out together. A smirk crossed my face. Looks like I really got to Alice...
