It was a very blurry video clip.

Susan: [Emily, is this guy in the video your boyfriend?]

My heart sank as I confirmed the man in the video was indeed Riley.

Although the video was taken from behind, I still recognized him at first sight.

Under the dim light of the restaurant's private room, he was sitting next to a girl, celebrating her birthday.

Judging from their intimate posture, they must have an affair.

Suddenly, I noticed that the girl next to him was wearing an emerald bracelet that was almost exactly the same as the lucky bracelet I lost.

The anger hit my brain so hard that I almost fainted.

I asked Susan if she knew the girl next to Riley in the video clip.

After typing for a long time, she replied: [Don't you think this girl looks familiar?]

I looked carefully and almost fainted again.

It was Nora.

I suddenly recalled that today was her birthday, and according to her habit, she would have returned to the dormitory now.

But today, she didn't return to the dormitory until midnight.

As a dance student, Nora transferred to our dormitory in the second semester of her sophomore year.

With her smooth skin, cute appearance and slim figure, she had a gift to attract others' care.

Our teacher asked me to take care of her since she came from a poor family, so I always shared my snacks and drinks with her.

But I didn't expect that this habit would make Nora feel that she could treat whatever belonged to me as hers.

She even wore the emerald bracelet Lila sent me on her hand openly.

Meanwhile, she stuck to Riley and me with an excuse to save more money on meals.

But she was already a well-known dance host on the Internet and could totally afford good meals herself.

At that time, I thought she was just used to eating with me, but it turned out that she had been hooking up with my boyfriend for a long time.

I quickly took out my cell phone and called Nora, but no one answered the call.

Just when I was about to send her a message, her new post on Instagram popped up.

Nora: [My crush sent me the gift I have longed for. Double surprise!]

There were two pictures below.

One photo showed Nora leaning on a boy's shoulder intimately.

The other picture was her wrist, and what she was wearing on it was the lucky bracelet that I had lost.

To be honest, there were countless designs for a bracelet. But the unique decorative pattern on this bracelet made me so sure that it was the one Lila sent to me.

In terms of the pattern, I could conclude someone stole my bracelet and presented it to her.

And from the shoulder she leaned on, I knew he was Riley, who had been in a relationship with me for two years.

The bracelet I lost in the morning appeared on Nora's wrist now.

Obviously, Riley stole my emerald bracelet to please her.

Or maybe she asked him to steal it from me since she couldn't just take it away from me so blatantly.

The irresistible rage surged from my heart.

His oath that he would only be loyal to me was shattered by himself the moment he cheated on me with my roommate.

It was so disgusting that such a bastard actually existed in the world.

No matter what, I had to get the bracelet back first before anything terrible happened to her.

But Nora didn't return to the dormitory all night, and none of our roommates could get in touch with her.

I just sent her a message.

Emily: [Nora, what you are wearing is the lucky bracelet that was linked to me with a spell. It will indeed bring bad luck to any other wearer than me. I didn't mean to scare you because what I said was all true. Please return it to me now. Otherwise I can't help you if something bad really happens.]

But unexpectedly, neither did Nora return it nor was she willing to receive my messages again.

The next day, at noon, I finally managed to see Riley at the entrance of the teaching building.

Without further ado, I directly showed him the photos from Nora's Instagram.

Being stunned for a moment, he still refused to surrender.

He said, "Emily, I don't know what you mean with this photo, but she is merely a friend of mine. Besides, every bracelet looks like that. Isn't it too suspicious for you to accuse me with a blurry photo?"

I rolled my eyes and clicked the video Susan sent to me.

Riley's face was visibly pale.

"Why did you spy on my life? I just celebrated her birthday! There were other people at her birthday party, and you can't prove I cheated on you with a single photo," he said.

I laughed. "I wonder whether you can still be so confident after watching the whole video."

At the end of the video, Nora kissed him on the face as if no one was around, and he did not avoid it but hugged her tightly in his arms.

As the video approached its end, Riley fell dead silent.

However, Nora suddenly appeared and stood in front of him. "Emily, don't think you can do whatever you want with your money. If Riley had been unable to pay the tuition, he wouldn't have been with an ugly bitch like you."

"I'm telling you, his true love is me. He endured the disgust and stayed with you for two years. For two years, to please you, he has lived like a slave. Isn't that enough? Now you are embarrassing him in public. You are going too far," she added.

Riley hurried to stop her from blurting out his true intention, but Nora spoke even louder.

I looked at him with disappointment on my face.

"Riley, do you really think so?" I asked.

Without responding to me, Riley might just want to save face for himself in front of Nora.

I snorted coldly. "In that case, I'll break up with you."

I hired a lawyer and got back all the money I had spent on him in the past two years.

Since he didn't have so much money to repay my debt, he probably begged Nora to use the money she got from the SuperChats.

But even though she helped him pay back all the money, she didn't return my lucky bracelet.

After I waited in the dorm for a week, Nora still didn't come back.

I had no choice but to wait in the dance classroom, and finally, I saw Nora, who had just finished class.

She was still wearing my lucky bracelet.

Maybe it was out of illusion, I surprisedly found the emerald turned a little cloudy.

Facing my question, Nora was not at all flustered.

She raised her wrist and showed it off to me proudly.

"You're right. Riley sent me this bracelet as my birthday gift. Oh, by the way, he also gave himself to me, and we are already living together."

"I just don't want to give it back to you. What can you do? Do you have any proof that it belongs to you?" After saying that, Nora laughed triumphantly.

I clenched my teeth with rage.

"Nora, we used to be roommates, and I don't want to see you end up in some miserable situation. Before everything is too late, give it back to me!" I said.

Nora wore that arrogant smile.

"This bracelet is bought by my boyfriend. I have the receipt and invoice. How can you say it's yours without any proof?" As she spoke, she took out the receipt from her bag and waved it in front of me.

It seemed that she was determined not to return my bracelet.

Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, I asked her after a momentary silence.

I said, "Nora, it's my last warning. Anyone else except its real owner wears it will be stranded in bad luck. Please return it to me now."

Nora rolled her eyes. "What's your problem? If you curse me like this again, I will call the police."

Since she insists on keeping things that don't belong to her, there was nothing I could say.

Nora was a dance streamer with one hundred thousand fans. Usually, in addition to dancing for her sponsors and asking for SuperChats, she also shared her daily life while streaming.

That night, I opened TikTok and happened to see her talking about the bracelet with chats.

"My roommate might suffer delusions. She insists that I took her bracelet. It's clearly a gift from my friend, and I even have the receipt. But she claimed that it's her lucky bracelet that will bring bad luck to me..." she said.

Her audience were all irritated by what this slender young girl had suffered and all began to comfort her by cursing me.

Netizen A: [Nora, your roommate may target your bracelet. You'd better be careful in case she will steal it.]

Netizen B: [It's so funny. She thought the police would do nothing about that?]

Netizen C: [Maybe she is just a lunatic. Some girls nowadays are just vain and materialistic.]

Among these comments, there was one that was particularly different.

Netizen D: [What your roommate said was true, girl. If it is not yours, you'd better return it to its real owner so as to dispel the bad luck that is coming to you now.]

If I were Nora, I would probably suspect that this comment was posted by me.

But I really didn't do anything.

Her fans were all discontented about this comment.

Netizen A: [Nora, is this your roommate with delusional disorder? I can't believe she pesters you while you're streaming. This is too scary. Just call the police.]

Netizen B: [That's right. Maybe she is a psycho.]

Nora pretended to be frightened. "Thank you, guys. I will call the police as soon as I end the live stream today."
