Chapter 1
My best friend unexpectedly got pregnant and asked me to lend her 1,000 USD to have an abortion.
But she went to an illegal clinic to save money and encountered a medical accident, so she could never get pregnant again.
She blamed me for giving her too little money and causing her to lose the opportunity to be a mother forever, so she stabbed me to death with a knife in a public class.
As it came to the time when my best friend called me again to borrow money, I sneered. This time, no one will help you.
The ringing of the phone suddenly startled me, and I sat up abruptly from the bed.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the familiar dormitory bed.
I was stunned for a moment.
What's going on?
Didn't I die?
I died in the classroom.
My best friend Leon Cooper stabbed me several times, and one of the stabs happened to be in my heart, causing my instant death.
Just because I lent 1,000 USD to Leon Cooper for an abortion.
But Leon Cooper herself found regular hospitals too expensive and was unwilling to go.
And she blamed everything on me.
She found an illegal clinic herself and spent less than 200 USD to have an abortion.
Afterwards, she came to me to show off that she had the ability to avoid being picked like leeks by the hospital.
You see, this saved several hundred!”
Leon Cooper was proud.
I feel uneasy in my heart and want to persuade Leon Cooper to go to the hospital again for a check-up, but she thought I was a partner of the hospital trying to cheat her money.
Even when I went to ask her for the money back, she screamed and cursed at me for being heartless.
"I'm already like this, and why do you still want to ask me for money?"
"It's true that I have some money left, but I'm keeping it to build up my health! I just had an abortion, but can't you understand me a little?"
"It's only 1,000 USD, it's not like I'm not giving it back to you. You're my best friend, but be generous, ok?"
Hearing this, I really considered her as a friend and thought that I should understand her this time.
But I didn't expect to meet Leon Cooper on the way home from school, showing off to her boyfriend:
"Jessica Lewis is such a fool, as soon as I mentioned it, she foolishly transferred the money to me, ha-ha!"
Her boyfriend patted her head.
"Honey, you're amazing! This is what a capable woman looks like!"
Leon Cooper was extremely proud.
"Shouldn't you reward me tonight?"
"Of course,"
While still on the street, I saw Jim Charlie reaching into Leon Cooper's clothes.
But Leon Cooper not only wasn't angry, she also relaxed and let her boyfriend touch her more smoothly.
The two of them gathered together and giggled obscenely.
I, who was following behind, felt disgusted.
I was furious and went up to Leon Cooper to interrupt their behavior.
"Leon Cooper, I lent you money because I considered you a friend, and this is how you talk about me behind my back?"
When Leon Cooper saw that it was me, both of them looked a bit embarrassed.
"Come on, Jessica Lewis, this is all a misunderstanding!"
Leon Cooper hurriedly tried to calm me down.
As soon as I thought of Leon Cooper and Jim Charlie's actions just now, I quickly avoided her hand reaching out to grab me.
It didn’t work on me.
"Since 1,000 USD yuan is nothing, then you should quickly give it back to me!"
"Come on, no one would have the audacity to owe money and not pay it back, right?"
I shouted loudly on the way I must pass after class, attracting the attention of many students.
When Jim Charlie saw that there were many onlookers, he scratched his head and felt embarrassed.
"You're Leon Cooper's friend, right?"
"See you later, bye-bye."
Chapter 2
"This has nothing to do with me, don't come to me for this!"
Jim Charlie waved his hand at me and the crowd, and directly left Leon Cooper with a disgraced face.
Leon Cooper also wanted to follow him, but I held onto her sleeve tightly.
She started to panic and begged me with a disdainful expression on her face.
"I need to go after my boyfriend now. Can I give it to you when I get back to the dormitory?"
"Don't worry, I'll give it back to you when I get back!"
"I’ll give it back to you, and I swear!"
Anyway, Leon Cooper would have to go back sooner or later. She could run, but couldn’t hide.
Seeing her being so tough, I also softened a bit.
I had a good relationship with Leon Cooper. We were from the same place and went to the same university, so naturally we had become closer.
Her family was not well-off, family basically doesn't care about her life and death because they prefer boys over girls as she had a younger brother in junior high school.
Therefore, she had been working part-time while studying to barely support her education, who could be considered as an inspirational figure.
Unfortunately, after dating a boyfriend, she seemed to have changed completely.
She even skipped classes and went out drinking and eating with her boyfriend, and even stayed out all night. I couldn't even find her all day.
It was all because Leon Cooper said that her boyfriend was her redemption, a ray of light in her dark life.
"Jim Charlie is the first person to treat me so well."
I could forget her bright eyes when she just started dating, filled with hope for the future.
I sighed and sympathized with her situation.
As I hesitated, my grip loosened.
Leon Cooper took the opportunity to break free from me and ran away.
I shook my head and wanted to forget it.
I'd be also ok when I asked her for it when Leon Cooper returned to the dormitory.
I didn't expect that I didn't receive the money I was waiting for.
The first news came from Leon Cooper, who had hemorrhea and was taken away by an ambulance.
The counselor came to the dormitory to tidy up some of Leon Cooper's things and reminded us not to spread them around.
I was surprised for a few days, and I didn't ask Leon Cooper for money at this critical moment.
After this ordeal, I sympathize with her.
But Leon Cooper didn’t deserve my sympathy.
During a public class, I couldn't hold on any longer and leaned against the back of the chair, feeling drowsy because I didn't get enough rest last night.
Suddenly, a person wearing a hat and a mask dashed into the classroom.
The teacher on the stage frowned with dissatisfaction.
"Hello, which class are you from? Do you know that you are already late?"
But he ignored the others and came straight towards me.
I was completely unaware, not realizing that danger was approaching.
Until a knife stabbed into my abdomen.
I saw Leon Cooper's eyes, bloodshot.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault! I can never get pregnant again!"
"Why did you make me repay the money!"
"Why did you only give me such a small amount of money!"
"It's all your fault for giving me so little that I had to go to an illegal clinic! I can never be a mother!"
"Now you die!"
Leon Cooper crazily stabbed me several times before being pinned down by classmates.
I felt a sharp pain in my chest and quickly lost consciousness.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back to the moment when Leon Cooper called me for money.
I touched my intact chest and felt a surge of hatred.
Without my help, Leon Cooper wouldn't even be able to afford the abortion.
But she still wanted to harm me and put all the blame on me!
I couldn’t imagine how much pain my parents must have gone through when they saw their offspring died before the eldership.
In this life, I would make Leon Cooper pay blood for blood!
Chapter 3
"Jessica, what should I do? What should I do?"
As soon as the call connected, I could hear Leon Cooper crying.
I lowered my voice and pretended to be gentle.
"Leon Cooper, why are you crying?"
"Easy, what happened?"
Leon Cooper choked and said the same words as in the previous life.
"I, I'm pregnant!"
I was deeply shocked in my previous life.
As a just-turned-adult, the word "pregnant" seemed extremely unfamiliar to me.
"What?"
I pretended to be shocked and shouted loudly.
"Why did you get pregnant?"
"Shh!" Leon Cooper nervously stopped me and said, "Don't say it out loud!"
It was too late.
I watched my roommate Flora, who was originally lying in the dormitory, sat up and sneered.
In the dormitory, there were always many people living together.
You could always meet all kinds of people.
Our dormitory has a famous bigmouth, Flora.
In the previous life, I helped Leon Cooper hide her pregnancy, but she belittled me and deliberately made her go to the illegal clinic for treatment.
She also cried and said that I didn't give her much money, and kept urging me to pay it back.
She never mentioned her derogatory remarks about me.
As a result, I was misunderstood by the whole dormitory and isolated by everyone.
It wasn't until I died that they knew I had lent so much money to Leon Cooper.
The person who made the mistake was never me.
In the previous life, Flora spread my "bad reputation" almost throughout the school, and my reputation was completely ruined.
It also caused me to lose the internship job that I liked.
But I know she was not a bad person.
On the contrary, she was a person with a strong sense of justice.
That's why she went all out to smear me for Leon Cooper, just to help everyone to avoid such a terrible person.
However, her mistake was that she didn't figure out the truth before spreading the matter.
Leon Cooper also took advantage of this point and distorted the truth.
In this life, Flora would be used by me.
"It's okay, I took a leave of absence and I'm in the dormitory now!"
Leon Cooper breathed a sigh of relief when she found out that we had class today for our major.
She thought I was the only one in the dormitory.
But she didn't know that Flora had a stomachache today and took a leave of absence.
I didn’t intend to tell her.
"That's good, Jessica. What do you think I should do?"
Leon Cooper anxiously asked me.
"What do you think, are you going to give birth to it?"
I asked her back.
Wasn't this the opportunity that Leon Cooper had always wanted to be a mother?
Opportunity w here. Don't blame me if you can't catch it.
I sneered.
"How can this be possible? I'm only a sophomore!"
"I'm not even twenty yet, how can I have a child?"
Leon Cooper immediately rejected me.
It turned out she also knew that this situation was not suitable for having a child.
So why did she take a short view or got swayed by her boyfriend’s sweet words without taking proper measures?
"Then go to the hospital quickly! Now!"
I kindly warned her.
Leon Cooper hesitated and said.
"I, I also want to go to the hospital, but it's almost the end of the month and I don't have any money. Oh, what should I do?"
Leon Cooper kept hinting to me and sighing in my ear.
I pretended not to understand, "Well, what should we do? Where is Jim Charlie? Go find him!"
Jim Charlie was Leon Cooper's boyfriend.
I'd always been curious why Leon Cooper didn’t turn to and insists on coming to me.
Clearly, the child's father was the first person responsible for this matter!
But Leon Cooper hesitated and finally opened her mouth to me.
"Well, about Jim Charlie, he is also short on money recently, and, Jessica, you are my best friend, can you lend me some money first to tide over the difficult time?"
"Don't worry! I'll pay you back as soon as I receive my salary from the store next month!"
Leon Cooper had been working at a breakfast shop for a long time, barely making enough money to support herself.
But I knew that by now, she should have quit her job at the breakfast shop.
Does she still want to deceive me for money at this time?
I pretend to be difficult:
"Well, Jim Charlie doesn't have money either? Do you want me to lend you money?"
Leon Cooper said busily, “Yes, there's no need to be too much. I checked that an operation in the major hospital here costs only a few thousand dollars."
"You will definitely help me, right?"
I said, “What, it costs thousands of dollars? Ah, yes, it's expensive, but we must go to a big hospital!”
"It may seem cheap in those illegal clinics, but they are not safe at all! Don't fall for it!"
Leon Cooper thought that I was willing to lend her money, so she stopped crying long ago and said, “Jessica, I know you are the best to me!”
"Well, it's better if you can understand it, but unfortunately I'm not with plenty of money to spend lately!"
I sighed feignedly.
"What!" Leon Cooper exclaimed, "Didn't you just receive the scholarship? How could you have no money?"
So she was actually planning to take my scholarship!
