Jenny felt as though her entire body was still immersed in agonizing pain, yet the excited and vulgar voice echoed in her ears.
"Don't worry, Wan'er, I'll take good care of you. I promise I will."
A buzzing sound filled her ears, seeming both near and far, leaving Jenny with an excruciating headache.
She struggled hard and suddenly flung her eyes open, her gaze reflecting an abruptly magnified face.
"Jen, you are truly gorgeous and delightful. You can trust me, I promise to treat you well!"
As Drake spoke, he leaned his face towards Jenny. His hasty demeanor suggested he couldn't wait to strip her bare right away.
In fact, that was what he was trying to do.
His hand reached for Jenny's belt.
Upon seeing Drake's face, a sudden surge of hatred and irritation filled Jenny's previously confused eyes.
She slapped Drake across the face with great force.
Drake was stunned for a moment, and he paused before glaring at her viciously, "Jenny, you..."
Jenny loathed him to the core, undeterred by his vicious gaze. She threw another punch directly at Drake's eye, causing him to yell in pain and fall backwards onto the ground.
"Jenny, have you lost your mind? Are you seeking death?"
Before Drake could finish his words, Jenny pounced on him, straddled him, and rained a flurry of punches on his face.
"You bastard! You scum even dare to appear in front of me; I'll beat you to death!"
"Drake, you ruined and sold me, and you ruined my life! Now that I'm dead, I feel like a ghost, and yet you won't let me be, have you lost all humanity?"
"When I was alive, I allowed you to blind and bully me, but when I'm dead, I'm not going to be a fool and let you bully me any longer, go to hell, Drake. You want to take advantage of me? Not in your next life!"
Jenny, thinking of the muddled words she had heard just now, felt sick to her stomach, and her attacks became more violent.
Drake was left stunned by Jenny's flurry of slaps; his head was ringing, and he could barely understand Jenny's words, he only caught the phrase 'take advantage'.
"Jenny, didn't you agree to be with me? Isn't that why we came to this abandoned house? What's gotten into you? Why are you hitting me! If you really don't want to be with me, just say so. There are plenty of others who like me, Drake. I'm not short of one Jenny!"
Drake managed to seize Jenny's hands in a moment she was going frantic with her slaps, and yelled angrily.
His words left Jenny in a sea of surprise.
"What did he mean by her agreeing to be with him that's why they came to this deserted house?"
How could she possibly agree to have intercourse with Drake after he had brought her to such a state, even planning to sell her to a perverted old man for a job?
In a moment of trance, Jenny was shoved beneath Drake.
Jenny was almost out of breath as he sat on her.
He stared angrily at Jenny, and said maliciously, "Jenny, it was you who chased after me shamelessly, telling me how you liked me, loved me, that you wanted to marry no one but me, and even if we didn't get married, you'd give yourself to me. That's why I came to this house with you. What are you playing at now?"
Jenny:??? How could she possibly utter such a despicable words?!!!
- -
Drake, this bastard, ruined her life. She had to leave her life behind to follow him. Not only did he maltreat her badly, abused her, and used her to earn money to support him, but he even tried to sell her to a perverted old man for a job. How could she possibly still like him, love him?
She'd rather die than marry him, let alone give herself to him before marriage. Go to hell!
Wait a second… why does that sound familiar?
Is this… Isn’t this what she said to Drake in her previous life?
But she was already dead, became a ghost for many years already, how could this…
Seeing Jenny act crazily and then gaze blankly at him, her face constantly alternating, Drake couldn’t help but feel tense.
"Could this Jenny be a lunatic?"
So was her behavior just now… was that a bout of madness?
Damn!!!
Instinctively, Drake wanted to let go of Jenny.
He didn’t want to be stuck around a lunatic of a lady.
But his gaze was immediately drawn to the open collar of Jenny's clothing.
Her fair slender neck, her distinctively elegant clavicles, and the smooth, soft skin under her clothes... Just the thought of it, one could imagine the beauty beneath the fabric.
In an instant, Drake’s eyes sparkled with a fiery expression.
Even if Jenny was a lunatic, he must have a taste of her body today!
It doesn't matter if she's mad; her body is enticing enough!
With that thought, Drake reached out to grab the collar of Jenny's clothes, his eyes sparkling as if to tear it apart.
At this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps and voices can be heard from the small path outside the desolate house.
"Hurry, hurry up. The shameless Jenny and Drake are in there. I saw them hand in hand heading towards this old house. They must be here for a secret rendezvous."
"Evelyn, are you sure you saw it clearly? Jenny is engaged to the fourth son of the Henry family, she's Harry fiancee. Everyone in this small town knows about it, how could she be having an affair with Drake? If you are wrong about Jenny and nothing is going on, then you are spreading rumors and you'll be held accountable!" Team Leader Jasper said loud and clear.
"Oh my, Team Leader, I, Evelyn, am not yet so old as to be unable to see clearly. Would I call everyone here to 'catch the cheaters' if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes?
Nowadays, the scrutiny into relationships between men and women is very strict. If people from outside the town hear about it, our town will become the subject of ridicule! I also don't want their shameful affairs to affect everyone, that's why I brought everyone here to catch them in the act.
It's better for their actions to be caught by us, members of our own village, rather than by outsiders. Once we catch them, we need to resolve this matter quickly so as not to tarnish the reputation of our town." Evelyn said, her face filled with anxiety.
With her "I'm doing all this for the sake of the town's reputation" demeanor, she genuinely managed to move the crowd.
"Yes, Evelyn is right, Team Leader. We can't let such people mess around with their relationships."
"That's right, Jenny, taking advantage of being the granddaughter of Mr Robson has been arrogant enough already. It's not the first or second day she's been chasing after Drake. It's not surprising if they come to this deserted place and do something."
"Tsk, that Jenny is clearly a shameless woman, which decent family's daughter would chase after a grown man's pants? She's still engaged to Harry. She hasn't even married him yet, and Harry s 'green hat' is already being worn so high!"
…
The distant conversations drifted to Jenny's ears, causing her head to explode with a bang.
Drake, Evelyn, Team Leader Jasper, and the some of the town's people who came to catch the adulterers...
Aren't all these people and things from when she was eighteen, when Drake tricked her into the abandoned house?
But she's already dead, so how could such a thing happen again?
The scene before her eyes seemed to recreate the year when she stupidly did something out of ignorance.
Recreated...
Jenny's head buzzed. Could it be that she had been reborn?
