Reborn After Betrayal: No Mercy for His Sweetheart

I sat down and asked the nurse to swap out the IV drip once Christian and Wendy left. I was aware that calling the police wouldn't really work, but I did it just to rattle Christian, who was incredibly anxious about the SAT and couldn't risk even the slightest mishap.

I returned to the dormitory that evening and immediately packed my exam essentials into my bag before locking it inside my cabinet.

In my past life, Wendy used the excuse of compensating me to pack my exam materials. I wasn't feeling well then, and since she seemed well-intentioned, I didn't stop her.

I double-checked everything and went for the SAT after she packed it, but midway through, a crumpled ball of paper fell out of my clear zip-lock exam bag. I was immediately accused of cheating, and when the invigilator opened the crumpled paper ball, it was discovered to be a cheat sheet.

I was convicted of cheating, my exam scores were voided, and I even faced the possibility of imprisonment. I broke down and confronted Wendy, demanding to know why she set me up.

Wendy burst into tears and threw herself into Christian's arms instead, asking, "What are you talking about, Yvonne? I don't know anything about that! You're scaring me!"

Christian, in his role as my boyfriend, stepped forward to testify against me, claiming I had personally prepared the SAT cheat sheet.

I tried to drag Wendy to have the handwriting analyzed, only for her to push me down the stairs, where I fell to my death.

I couldn't help but clench my fists as I recalled the horrible way I had died in my past life.

I took out the exam bag I had personally packed the following day, and after verifying that everything was exactly as it should be, I stowed it in my backpack.

I arrived at the exam site and gathered with the other students in one area. It was ten minutes later when the main doors opened, and the students began entering the exam site in succession.

I had just reached into my backpack for my exam bag when I discovered that it was missing. I immediately panicked as I rummaged through my backpack. I even ran to the bus to look for it, but it was nowhere to be found.

I rushed back and realized that all the students were already in the hall. I got urged by the teacher to head in as well. As distressed as I was, I had no choice but to look at the teacher and tell her that I had lost my exam bag.

Upon hearing that, the teacher furrowed their brow and asked, "How could you not have your materials ready when the SAT is such a major event, Yvonne? I'll have someone print your admission ticket and buy new supplies right now, so go get a temporary ID issued. You might still make it, Yvonne."

I kept nodding while thanking the teacher.

It was then that someone suddenly spoke up. "Is this your exam bag, Yvonne?"

I glanced at it and saw my belongings inside. I nodded and asked, "How did it end up with you?"

Wendy explained with a smile, "I found it on the bus, wedged in a gap beneath your seat. I guess you must have accidentally dropped it, Yvonne."

I didn't believe a word Wendy said. I had my backpack zipped shut the entire time, making it impossible for anything to drop out of it. I had also just checked the bus thoroughly and found nothing, so there was no way the exam bag would end up in Wendy's hands.

I was just about to press her for answers when the teacher suddenly interjected, saying, "You should hurry inside and stop dallying since you've found it; otherwise, you're going to be late, Yvonne."

I was urged into the exam hall, but I couldn't help but feel deeply unsettled as I held onto the exam bag Wendy returned to me. I still couldn't shake off a sense of foreboding, even though I had repeatedly inspected the items in the exam bag.

I immediately got up and ran out of the exam hall the moment the bell signaling the start of the SAT rang, leaving everyone stunned.

It wasn't long before the first exam ended, and students came out of the exam hall one after another. Wendy suddenly turned to me and exclaimed, "You're truly something, Yvonne—to think you'd actually cheat on the SAT!"
