After rebirth, I no longer persuaded my sister not to hit and run
Chapter 4
After they left, I turned to Cheryl and thanked her.
"There's no need to thank me." Cheryl waved her hands.
"I'm not just thanking you for this, but also for what you did last night."
Cheryl frowned and asked, "You're the one who saved that woman's daughter! You called me to help... so why didn't you want me to tell them?"
Thanks to my memories from before, I knew that the accident happened near Cheryl's house.
In my previous life, the victim had died because she didn't receive treatment in time.
Last night, as soon as I got home, I contacted Cheryl.
I only asked her to call an ambulance and didn't want her to show up in person.
Fortunately, this time, we acted quickly, and the victim survived after a night of emergency care.
At the time, I instructed Cheryl not to tell anyone that I had asked her to call the ambulance, not even the police.
Facing Cheryl's confusion, I sighed, "It's a long story."
She glanced at the luggage in my hand and asked, "Where are you going? Back to your parents' house?"
I shook my head.
"I'm divorcing Trent!"
We found a café and sat down.
I told Cheryl about my rebirth.
After hearing the story, she was furious, cursing Trent and Haley with such intensity that it drew stares from all the people around us.
Her words brought an unexpected sense of relief to my heart.
"Do you really believe me? Aren't you afraid I made it up or that I'm just mentally unstable?" I asked, testing her.
She downed her coffee in one gulp, her eyes full of trust. "Of course, I believe you! We've been best friends for so many years. I know when you're telling the truth."
I hugged her, deeply moved.
I was incredibly grateful to have a friend who trusted me so completely, especially after my sister and husband had both betrayed me.
It was surprising how friendship had proven more reliable than either love or family.
Cheryl ordered another cup of coffee.
"So, what's your plan now?" she asked.
