Accompanying My Sister-in-law to Work Out, I was Killed by Her Family

“Daph, I’m going to start working out now. Come pick me up in two hours.”

Juniper was trying to get rid of me.

With the gym trainer’s help, they headed into the changing room.

Less than two hours later, Juniper suddenly called me, her voice filled with pain.

“Daph, come pick me up and take me to the hospital!”

I raced into the gym and was met with a scene that made my heart drop. Juniper lay sprawled on the yoga mat, clad only in a yoga top, her face an unusually shade of red. She was gasping for air, writhing in pain, with a disturbing pool of blood forming beside her.

The gym trainer, drenched in sweat and visibly shaken, stood there looking helpless. I recalled that he had arrived in workout pants, but now he was down to a pair of tight shorts.

Without wasting a moment, I scrambled to get Juniper to the hospital, my mind racing. I considered calling my mother and Randal to bring them over.

However, Juniper grabbed my phone and said, “Daph, please, don’t tell my husband or mother-in-law. They didn’t want me to go to the gym and if they find out I lost this baby because of this, I’m finished!”

I looked conflicted. “But with something this big, how are we even make up an excuse?”

Juniper’s eyes darted around. “We’ll just say we were walking and had a little falling accident.”

Since Juniper married into my family, she had endured a relentless stream of bullying from my mother.

Yet, everything changed once Juniper became pregnant. Suddenly, my mother started treating her with newfound respect, transforming her into the cherished darling and little princess of the family.

As a fellow woman, I understood Juniper’s struggles and agreed to help her keep the truth hidden.

Yet... in previous life, Juniper was hospitalized soon after the bleeding incident at the gym. At that time, she asked me to go to her parents’ house to grab some clothes for her.

I had just gathered the clothes and was about to leave when her parents suddenly restrained me, forcing me to drink a cup of poisoned milk tea.

My limbs convulsed, foam gushing from my mouth, but they still wouldn't let me go.

Juniper's mother spat at me viciously. "You wretch! How dare you bully my daughter! You deserve to die!"

I didn't even have a chance to explain before I was pushed out the window. I plummeted to my death, the sickening sound of bones breaking echoing in my ears.

Later, as my soul drifted from my broken body, I saw my mother and Randal. They didn't shed a single tear. Instead, they stood beside Juniper, hurling curses at me.

"Daphne got what she deserved!"

"She probably killed herself out of guilt for causing my precious grandchild's death!"

***

In that instant, the agonizing memories of my previous life came rushing back.

The truth hit me like a bolt of lightning.

Juniper's miscarriage hadn't been caused by overexertion at the gym. It was due to some shameful secret.

I had exhausted myself covering for Juniper, only to become the scapegoat who paid with my life.

I clenched my fists!

Now that I had been reborn, there was no way I'll let you kill me again!
