The Second Life That Saved Me But My Parent Were ArrestedChapter 1

A hundred days before the college entrance exam, my mother would stay up late with me every single night, keeping me company while I studied.

He shoved my mother aside and urged me to go.

I stood frozen, overwhelmed by the chaos, as they started yelling at each other.

“Sweetheart, trust me,” my mother pleaded, her eyes wide and desperate. “I’ve been reborn. The road to the exam site will collapse. Going there is suicide!”

My mother’s face turned crimson as she pointed a trembling finger at him.

“You bastard! You know the road will collapse! You’re trying to kill our daughter!”

My father snapped, “Stop twisting the truth! In our past life, you were the one who stopped her from taking the exam. And she died in misery because of it!”
