In the confines of Restricted Intensive Care unit of the Research Center for Infectious diseases , Emily Petrov was lying in a ward for patients with a level four virus, numerous tubes sticking out of her body.
The pain has tortured her so much that she no longer looked like her old self and was almost living her last moment of her life. She clutched the bed sheets tightly with her claw-like nails as she looked straight at the woman seated in front of her.
"Everyone else with the K virus died within a month. But you just didn't survive, you even managed to contain your virus. What a perfect living specimen you are, don't you think?? How does it feel just living from day to day for the past three years? Not bad right??"
Her evil words were a total contrast to her beautiful face. Others visited her because she was ill, but Lily Petrov was here to kill her. She took out a syringe ,full of a clear, light yellow liquid.
"Oh look, here's the antiserum that the researchers created yesterday! You've been hanging on to your dear life for this, right? They've grown so attached to you in these three years that the moment the testing was complete, the researching team made sure there was one prepared for you .Once you receive this injection, you can get well. You want this jab, my dearest elder sister???"
Yes! Of course I do!! Emily thought as she closed her eyes to hide the despair she felt. She wanted this antiserum badly but she very well knew that Lily would kill her the day the antiserum was created. After all it was Lily who gave her this virus in the first place!!.
Not only did she get this virus ,she had lived her entire life under Lily's thumbnail. Lily barely understood anything about medical science, but she was now a beautiful and renowned genius doctor only because she had stolen everything important to her. Every time she thought about how she had foolishly become Lily's stepping stone to her current success, it nearly drove her to death. But she didn't want to die ,she wanted REVENGE!!
When the researchers saw her strong will to live ,they said she was such an altruistic person, sacrificing herself for the rest of the world.
She was being SELF- SACRIFICING?? What nonsense!!
She clung to life despite the terrible pain , because she hoped they would be able to quickly create an antiserum. The research team finally had a breakthrough yesterday!!. The antiserum was finally created, but now Lily was wickedly teasing her with this very thing that could save her life. She felt immense anger boiling up inside her ,and the sheer amount of hate within her weak body surprised her. Lily saw that Emily had closed her eyes and was ignoring her words, so she went straight to the point.
"My dear sister, I know you don't want to die, and actually I'm not afraid of you returning to the medical field because nobody will believe you anymore. Tell you what, if you tell me the code to unlock the safe of your research lab, I'll inject you with this antiserum and send you overseas to live quietly, how about that??"
Emily opened her eyes upon hearing this, and with an unsteady voice uttered, "This is the first time......I have come across....... someone....so.... shameless.".
Taking away everything I had was not enough, and now before killing me ,Lily still wants to cheat me of the last thing that made my life worthwhile!!!! She can dream on!!
"Sooo You're not gonna tell me??
There was an evil glint in Lily's eyes as she waved the syringe in her hand and she threatened her ,"What is more important to you than your life?? Didn't you just hang on for this serum?" Emily laughed coldly and ignored the question. Seeing that this did not do the trick, Lily decided to pull out her trump card.
"I suppose you don't know yet that Young Master Lu is getting engaged today and his partner is none other than Chloe Adams!! That despicable woman!! She teamed up with me to gang up against you and did so many terrible things to you -- don't you want to live on and get back at her?"
The words 'Young Master Lu' pierced deeply through Emily's heart.

The words 'Young Master Lu' pierced deeply through Emily's heart. Even though she hadn't heard of this word in a long while, it was still like a sharp sword that pierced easily through an old wound which refused to heal. She could tell that Lily was filled with regret, because Lily herself was one of those many girls who dreamed of marrying Young Master Lu, but now was beaten to it by Chloe. In fact, she was filled with regret and regretted it every single day.
If only she had been more alert and saw through Lily's disguise earlier, she wouldn't be in this terrible situation now. If only she did not fall in love with that man and did everything in her power to keep their engagement, then she would not have been attacked time and time again, suffering physical and emotional pain and even nearly being raped. It was a recurring nightmare of regret, hate and finally despair.
Was it so wrong to fall in love with someone?? Was it so wrong to show kindness to everyone?? Because if not, then how the hell did she end up in this state??
"Just kill me......you LIAR!!! I know that......that syringe......contains poison!!!" Emily shouted agitated ,as if she was possessed. She knew that she was doomed to die from the very moment Lily entered her ward because Lily was only going to lie to her, demean her, and finally kill her. Upon seeing that Emily would rather die than to tell her the code, Lily's face darkened and her anger began to rise. Nothing went well for her lately — firstly, that filthy Chloe has the love of her life and now even this useless lowlife Emily dared to go against her??
"Since you would rather die than to tell me the code, I'll gladly fulfill your wish!! You think that I can't survive without you?" With that said ,she got up and marched towards Emily and raised her hand to inject Emily with the deadly syringe. The poison in the syringe would only need merely ten seconds to kill Emily , and it would look like she died a natural death.
Once Emily is dead, nobody in the world would be able to expose my evil deeds. Thought Lily to herself ,eyes full of an evil intent, badly failing to notice the spark in the eyes of the weak woman lying on the bed. Suddenly, in the blink of an eye , Emily bolted up from the bed and ripped out the needles from her arm that connected her to various life support machines. She grabbed Lily's hand, raised in the mid air, with all her might and pushed the syringe the other way, piercing it right into Lily's arm.
" NO!!!!"
Lily's eyes opened wide with terror and the next thing she knew was that the syringe was empty. She tried calling for help but felt her body go weak and staggered back several steps. She couldn't believe it — Emily was practically breathing her last breath just a moment ago and this was definitely not the outcome that she had expected not even in her wildest dreams!!!
The alarm beeped as a result of her pulling all the needles out , but Emily did not care. She finally had her revenge!!! She watched with a hint of satisfaction on her pale face as Lily clutched her own neck and fell on the floor, her eyes wide open, the blood on her hands reflected in her terrified pupils. This was her retribution from the heavens!!!
An indescribable feeling of joy surged through Emily's body and the smile on her face grew wider and wider and she looked more and more frightening. She was so grateful to her Grandpa that he had forced her to train her body since she was young so she was able to exert this amount of strength despite being in such a weak state. She had finally avenged herself!!!! Now was the moment that she realized that fighting back was not so hard after all!!.
The room started spinning as the alarm rang in her ears continuously, and Emily collapsed back on the bed. She desperately wanted someone to save her. She badly wanted to survive this ordeal and wanted to start her life all over again. She was determined not to be passive anymore and definitely not to be a weakling again, but to boldly live her life and live true to herself.
As she began to lose consciousness, she could hear the sound of the door opening and people rushing into the room. Various moments of her life flashed in front of her eyes — her peaceful life with her family and grandparents, her childhood when Ethan Lu treated her the best ,his mother who treated her as her own daughter.
The scenes changed to the time when her mother died, her father remarried and brought back a woman and his illegitimate daughter and the rest was history before everything around her turned completely black.

The rest was history before everything around her turned completely dark but there was only a single thought going through her mind that If she survived, she would no longer be tied by a family who did not love her, she definitely will not fall in love with the same man, and she would only love herself.
As long as she could live on.............
Emily was awakened by the sound of the thunder as she lay in the annexe of the Lu Manor. It was night time, and the heavy rain pounded against the white bay window. A flash of lightning shone through the window, casting a bright light on her and the messy bed she was laying on. She could faintly hear the voices of two men talking outside. Despite feeling feverish, she tried to get up. Suddenly she froze as a sudden thought crossed her. Wait!!.......w-wasn't she dead???
Even if she wanted to live, she still knew better than anyone else that she couldn't have survived after she completely pulled off all the tubes connecting her to the life support machines and on top of it her legs have been paralyzed for the past three years — how were they able to move now??
Emily reached for her legs subconsciously and noticed a Jade ring on her left thumb!! If she was not wrong, the same ring was a present from the Lu's upon her engagement, but it was taken away from her when she was eighteen!!!
The series of shocking revelations made her start to think of the situation more clearly.
Heavy rains, a luxurious bungalow room, waking up after being drugged ,the two men talking outside.......
C-could........Could it be that she didn't die but somehow traveled to the time every nightmare started?? Did life restart on the night, the worst nightmare of her life happened?? She couldn't believe it!!!!
But upon realizing this, her first reaction was terror instead of joy. Because if it was really the same night, then...... the two men talking outside were the two scoundrels who wanted to rape her!!
In her previous life, she tried her best to fight back despite being drugged and even managed to use a cell phone to hit one of the man's head but he hit her back and she fainted. Eventually, she woke up from the pain of being tortured by them. Now it was happening again, but this time she regained her consciousness earlier than in her previous life.
Emily's heart started pounding furiously against her chest because if everything happened just like the last time, Lily, together with others, was going to burst into the room to 'catch her in the act' in a few moments. That was how she was completely disgraced in her previous life and had to call off the engagement. If this was her second chance to live, she definitely wouldn't let the history repeat itself. She was going to save herself this time round!!!
She must get help!!!
She got up from the bed and immediately collapsed — after not being able to walk for three long years, she had somehow forgotten how to walk. The voices outside immediately stopped when they heard her fall.
"There's a noise coming from the room!! Is she awake??" Emily almost stopped breathing when she high those familiar voices from her past life nightmare. She quickly grabbed her clothes and used all her strength to get up from the floor. The icy raindrops splashed directly onto her through the open window as she realised that there was a problem — the room she was laying in was on the second story.
The annexe was very far from the main house where a family party was being held on this very night. As such, all the servants should be in the main house busy serving the guests, so even if she shouted tell her voice was hoarse, she would not be heard over the heavy rain. But she didn't have that much time on her because the men outside had reached the door and were turning the handle!!! With no other way out, Emily did not have time to hesitate. She climbed up the window despite aching all over her body and jumped down!!!
