Chapter 1Reborn, I Watch Her Love Obsession Unfold

"Rebecca, I want to move into the boys' dorm with Jaxon. Do you support me?"

As soon as I opened my eyes, my best friend Sophie was looking at me with red, teary eyes.

In my past life, I spent two hours trying to talk sense into her. I talked about her reputation, her safety, her self-respect, and her future.

After listening to all of it, she glared at me with pure venom. "Rebecca, you are just jealous that someone actually loves me!"

Later on, she lured me into that very boys' dorm. Right before I was brutally attacked and left to die, I saw her twisted face looking down at me. "Weren't you supposed to be so pure and full of self-respect? Look at you now, getting ruined like trash."

I take a deep breath and grab her hand tightly.

"Support you? Of course I support me."

"You and Jaxon are a match made in heaven. I hope you have eighteen kids together. Go start your own soccer team!"

Sophie froze. Her pale cheeks suddenly flushed bright red. "Rebecca, what are you talking about?"

"We are still so young. Why would you bring up kids?"

I sneered in my head.

If you hadn't used the excuse of going into labor in the boys' dorm in our last life, I never would have been tricked into going inside.

On the outside, I put on a gossipy, excited expression. "Come on, I'm just looking forward to your beautiful future."

She probably didn't expect me to actually support her. She looked a bit flustered.

"You really agree with me moving in there?"

"Of course I do." I picked up my iced latte from the table and winked at her. "You two are so perfect for each other. What is wrong with living together?"

"But don't you think it might be a little unsafe?" She bit her lip, looking at me with wide, pitiful eyes.

My grip on my plastic cup tightened. I pushed down the surging thrill in my chest and quickly replied.

"How could it be? Jaxon loves you so much. He would never let anyone disrespect you. You should just move in and enjoy your life with him."

Hearing Jaxon's name brought another blush to Sophie's fair face.

"Oh stop, don't tease me. I am being serious with you. There are four guys in that dorm room. I feel like..."

Before she could finish her sentence, I checked the time on my watch.

I looked up. Jaxon was storming toward our table in his sweatpants, looking incredibly aggressive.

I let out a cold laugh in my mind.

In my previous life, he had arrived just in time to hear me say, "You really shouldn't live with him in a boys' dorm. It is way too dangerous."

He assumed I was trying to sabotage their pure, undying love. He slapped me so hard I ended up in the hospital.

This time, I looked at his furious face and waved eagerly. "Sophie is right here!"

He stopped in front of our table, casually bouncing his leg.

"What are you two talking about? Rebecca, you better not be talking trash about me."

Sophie opened her mouth to speak, but I immediately jumped in and pointed an accusatory finger at him.

"Jaxon, this is your fault. Sophie doesn't feel secure enough to live in your dorm."

"You are being a terrible boyfriend."

Hearing this, Jaxon narrowed his eyes. "Sophie, just move in. I run that floor. My word is law."

"Once you move in, I'll have all the guys calling you the queen of the house."

Sophie's face instantly turned crimson. All her previous worries vanished.

She threw herself into his arms, gripping the edge of his shirt and whining softly.

I watched the two of them practically glued together and remembered their legendary, earth-shattering love story.

Back at the start of freshman year, Jaxon was jogging on the campus track in the pouring rain trying to look like a tough athlete.

He accidentally bowled over Sophie, who was holding an umbrella and playing the role of a melancholic indie girl.

That one collision sparked the flames of their epic romance.

While I was lost in thought, a few soft, suggestive whimpers reached my ears.

Disgust flashed through my eyes. I couldn't stand looking at this perfect couple for another second.

I stood up to leave, but Jaxon's arrogant voice called out from behind me.

"Rebecca, Sophie and I are going to hold our wedding in the dorm soon. You are her best friend, so you better show up."
