Chapter 2The $50 Million Jackpot: Bricked in a Wall, I Was Reborn to Destroy Them All

Watching her walk closer, I pretended to be busy packing my luggage. "The odds are one in a billion. How could I possibly win?"

She stopped and stared at me intensely for a few seconds. "Oh, really?"

I finished packing my things, looked up, and met her eyes directly. "Yeah."

"Then where's your ticket? You haven't taken it out."

I had forgotten. In my past life, it was Madison who dragged me over, dug the ticket out of my bag, and checked the numbers one by one.

When we realized I won, she looked even more excited than I was. But her smile vanished almost immediately, replaced by a dark murmur: "I'm so jealous. I wish I had picked that ticket."

It was just a spur-of-the-moment decision to walk into that gas station.

We both just asked for random Quick Picks.

When the clerk handed the tickets over, Madison grabbed hers first.

She specifically picked the one with an '8' in the sequence, telling me it was a lucky number.

Then she shoved the other ticket into my hand.

In my past life, I had laughed and said that if I won five bucks to cover the cost of the ticket, I'd be happy.

Neither of us expected it to be the $50 million jackpot.

I think... the moment Madison's smile vanished in my past life, the moment she realized I had the winning ticket, was the exact moment she started plotting against me.

How could she possibly be satisfied with just the $2 million I gave her?

In her eyes, she was only one choice away from holding that ticket herself.

Therefore, she believed all that money rightfully belonged to her.

So, facing her interrogation now...

I generously pointed toward the door. "I threw it in the dumpster outside. Do you want to go dig it out and check?"
