After rebirth, I no longer persuaded my sister not to hit and run
Chapter 3
Trent sneered and said, "Elissa, you're actually slandering me just to get a divorce. I bet you've got a lover on the side, which is why you're so eager to leave me, isn't it?
"I've suspected for a long time that you've been messing around with that security guard. If you want a divorce, fine, but don't expect to get a single penny from me."
I thought to myself, "How ridiculous."
To make me leave with nothing, he's actually turning the tables and trying to slander me."
I slapped him hard across the face.
"Trent, do you have any proof that I've cheated?
I have evidence of your affair with Haley. The child in Haley's belly is proof of your infidelity. Don't you know that even if the child isn't born yet, a DNA test can still be done?
"I'm already giving you a break by not insisting you leave with nothing, so don't push your luck."
I turned and left, ignoring Trent's furious expression.
That night, I packed my things and moved out.
Before leaving, I reminded him once more, "See you at the courthouse on the morning of the sixth."
At that time, he was busy frantically redialing Haley's number.
As I stepped out the door, I ran into two women.
One was in her twenties, the other in her fifties.
I remembered who they were.
In my previous life, they had come to my door at this exact same time.
They were the family members of the person Haley had run over.
In my previous life, the victim's mother had lost control of her emotions and rushed at me, pinning me to the ground and beating me.
At the time, I knew Haley was indeed guilty, so I didn't resist, just protecting my head.
In my previous life, Trent had stayed hidden in the room and didn't come out. Later, he told me he was wearing headphones and didn't hear what was happening outside.
This time, the victim's mother also lunged at me. She grabbed my collar, hysterically demanding, "Where is that woman?"
Seeing the situation escalate, Trent quickly shut the door.
"She hit my daughter and then just ran off, not caring whether she lived or died.
"My daughter is still lying in the hospital, and the doctors said if she had been brought in any later, she wouldn't have made it."
She raised her hand to hit me, but someone stopped her.
The person holding her back was my best friend, Cheryl Stanley.
In my previous life, she had also protected me at this very moment.
"Ma'am, please calm down. It was Haley who hit your daughter, not Elissa."
The other woman, who looked like the victim's sister, also tried to calm her mother down. "Mom, let's go back. My sister still needs us to take care of her!"
The angry woman wiped her tears and said, "For the sake of our benefactor, I'll let you off this time. But you better make sure your sister turns herself in and faces the law. She can't run forever."
She then turned to Cheryl, holding her hand. "Thank you! Thank you for saving my daughter."
