Every time she posted in the forum to explain some techniques, she was praised. Many replied to discuss with her, and some even sent private messages to recruit her. However, ever since she left the Spencer family, she rarely visited the forum and was focusing on studying. Thus, the replies and messages she received gradually became fewer

Still, there were occasionally a few messages. She didn’t care much, but just as she was about to close the message, she saw the sender’s ID, which was Archebot

With such a unique name, she knew it had to be Mike

He had just sent her a WhatsApp message, and now a forum message too. Thus, it was clear to Jesse that Taylor hadn’t solved the problem as impressively as Mike thought she would

However, this had nothing to do with her

Jesse sneered and blocked him without hesitation. She was no longer the girl who would endure everything for them

The next day, Taylor came to school looking for Jesse

She didn’t bother going to the classroom. From what her followers found out, Jesse had no class in the first afternoon period. After gaming at an internet café, she went straight to the library

Jesse’s routine was simple. If she had no class, she would surely be in the library

Sure enough, after waiting for a while at the entrance, she saw Jesse

Jesse wore a light blue coat, and her long hair draped over her shoulders. Even without makeup, Jesse looked beautiful, which filled Taylor with jealousy

Jesse was carrying several textbooks as she walked toward the library. When she saw Taylor ahead, she frowned as she felt that Taylor was going to waste her time again

In that split second, Jesse turned and left, planning to sit in a pavilion instead

However, Taylor had already spotted her. She quickly ran up and blocked the latter’s path, calling out sweetly, Jesse!” 

However, Jesse ignored Taylor

The usually delicate Taylor, who fainted after two steps and needed Jesse to help with morning runs, now sprinted fast to stop her. She was panting hard. Her face was flushed, and her

Looking at her state, Jesse smiled but said nothing

Catching her breath, Taylor said, Mike wants you to fix the drones. He is willing to pay you for it.Her tone was arrogant, as if they were doing a huge favor for Jesse

Jesse wasn’t interested at all

Just as she was about to walk away, Taylor quickly added, 30,000 per drone.” She wasn’t willing to pay 100,000 dollars

At the same time, she regretted not thinking of this earlier. After all, if she had paid Jesse just a little, she wouldn’t have wasted 1.2 million

Blinking innocently, Taylor added, What do you think? Mike is generous enough to offer this to you. After all, you didn’t charge him and even paid the fee yourself!” 

As she spoke, she raised her chin, looking proud

Hearing her words, Jesse laughed in anger. Then, she shifted her books to one arm and slapped Taylor hard

Taylor was stunned. She held her cheek and froze on the spot. Then, tears streamed down her cheeks as she ran away while saying, How dare you hit me? I’ll tell Mike about this! He won’t let you off the hook!” 

Sneering, Jesse replied after her, Yes, go and tell him I hit you. I’ll also ask him why he is paying me 30 thousand now when last time you paid 1.2 million for me to repair the drones. Don’t you think that gap 

is a bit much?” 

In that split second, Taylor froze. She slowly turned and stared at Jesse in shock. Are you the one who tricked us?she asked, her voice trembling

Jesse hugged her books tighter and looked at her coldly. Not exactly. It’s just that the person you found happened to know me.” 

Taylor paled even more. She opened her mouth, but no words came out

Jesse stepped closer and said, Although I didn’t scam you, that person raised the price on purpose for me. I did nothing and got a 600,000 cut.” 

Taylor had never suffered such a loss. At that moment, she lunged toward Jesse and screamed, Give me back the money!” 

Jesse narrowed her eyes, dodged swiftly, and slapped Taylor again. The sharp sound echoed

Status: Ongoing

1) The Awakening

Jesse Spencer wakes to a sharp, icy voice—her brother Corey shouting. Her head spins, fever burning through her skull. Instinct takes over: the reflex of someone broken by years in prison. She drops to her knees and apologizes automatically. But the floor beneath her isn’t concrete. It’s soft—carpeted. Panic flares. She’s not in her cell. She’s back in her room, surrounded by familiar furniture she thought she’d never see again. She’s been reborn—twelve years into the past.


2) The Day That Ruined Her

Memories rush back in fragments. It’s that day—the day Taylor Holman accused her of ruining her contest project, locked her in the bathroom, and made her freeze through the night as punishment. Back then, Jesse refused to take the blame. That same night, Corey drenched her in ice water and turned off the heat, forcing her to “reflect.” Her fever had nearly killed her. While she suffered, Taylor basked in sympathy. Corey, blind with guilt, lashed out at Jesse just to see Taylor smile.


3) A Family Turned Against Her

Each brother had chosen Taylor over Jesse. Andrew, the doctor, brought medicine and comforted her gently, convinced she was in the wrong. Mike hovered over Taylor, offering warm water and towels. Kaleb, the youngest, even gave away Jesse’s hard-won spot in an international design competition—handing Taylor her future as if it meant nothing. Jesse had been branded a villain in her own home, a sinner forced to repay a debt she never owed.


4) The Debt That Wasn’t Hers

“Do you think Philip would forgive you? He died saving you!” Corey’s voice echoes again. The name pierces her chest. Philip Holman, Taylor’s brother, had died in a fire rescuing Jesse—or so everyone believed. The guilt consumed the Spencers, and they took Taylor in as family. Every day after that, they reminded Jesse: You owe her your brother. You owe her his life. Her brothers, her chances, her future—all handed to Taylor, the eternal victim.


5) The Truth Behind the Flames

But now, with her memories restored, Jesse finally knows the truth. Philip hadn’t died heroically—he had started the fire himself. He wanted to play savior, to make himself look noble in Taylor’s eyes, and Jesse was the collateral damage. Worse, Taylor had locked the door after them, intending to let the flames take them both. When the Spencers arrived, Taylor wept for the cameras, mourning her “only family,” while Jesse stumbled from the blaze branded a murderer.


6) The Accusation Reborn

Jesse’s fists tighten. Rage surges. But Corey mistakes it for defiance. “Still stubborn, huh? No apology, no school. You’ll stay grounded until you learn!” He glares, confident she’ll cave like before—especially with the design competition only three days away. Fevered and weak, Jesse still meets his eyes. “Fine,” she rasps. “I’ll apologize later. Now get out. I need to change.” Her tone chills him—cold, unfamiliar, unyielding. He leaves, thinking she’s finally obeying.


7) The Price of Survival

As soon as the door shuts, Jesse collapses. Pain sears through every bone. Her fever burns hotter; her limbs feel like lead. Somehow, she drags herself to the closet, pulling on dry clothes before sinking into bed. The warmth of the blanket breaks her. Three years in prison—three years of starvation, torture, and despair—flash through her mind. Her brothers had even paid guards to punish her for Taylor’s sake. Starved. Beaten. Forgotten. Cancer had finished what they started.


8) The Promise of Vengeance

Not this time. She won’t die quietly again. Curling into the blanket, Jesse whispers to herself, “I’ve got time. I’ll rest now. Then I’ll plan.” The warmth feels foreign, almost sinful after years of cold concrete. Her eyes close slowly. For the first time in forever, she lets herself sleep—safe, for the moment. This rebirth isn’t mercy. It’s a second chance to make them pay.


9) The Wake-Up Call

Jesse!” The roar yanks her awake. Harsh light floods the room as someone rips away the blanket. Cold air slaps her burning skin. Rough hands drag her upright—it’s Mike, furious. “You told Corey you’d apologize, and you’re sleeping? Taylor’s been defending you, and this is how you repay her? Get up!” Jesse’s stomach churns; her body convulses. She doubles over, gagging—but there’s nothing in her stomach to give. Mike sneers. “Still pretending? Think playing sick will save you?”


10) The Beginning of Payback

Her voice comes out hoarse and broken. “Let go. I can stand myself.” He does, grudgingly. His frown deepens—she’s burning up—but he dismisses it. After all, Taylor’s the one “who’s really been through hell.” He orders coldly, “Quit wasting time. Taylor’s waiting.”
Jesse steadies herself, eyes icy despite the fever. Once, she begged for their understanding. Now, she only needs their ignorance. Let them believe she’s weak. Soon enough, they’ll learn what true strength looks like. Rebirth has given her purpose—and this time, she won’t bow to anyone.
