The Man Who Burned Me Alive in My Past Life Was Also Reborn Novel by Fitzgerald Mitchell

The sudden arrival of the police disrupted the entire scene.

Richard, who had been in control, was suddenly taken into custody. Meanwhile, I, who was supposed to be the one held by Richard, became the complainant

needing protection.

Richard glared at me with seething anger: “You scheming bitch, playing dirty?”

I maintained a calm demeanor and said nothing.

Although I had experienced this before, I couldn’t ensure everything would go

according to plan. So, just in case, I had secretly called the police on our way to the

hospital and provided them with my home surveillance footage.

The footage clearly documented Richard’s illegal entry, vandalism, kidnapping,

and assault.

This evidence was enough for the police to act and arrest Richard, the primary

suspect.

With everyone watching, both Richard and I were taken away.

At the police station, the officers began questioning Richard about his crimes.

Unable to refute the evidence, Richard could only begrudgingly accept his fate, glaring at me with intense hatred.

His eyes seemed to burn with the desire to tear me apart.

When the police decided to detain Richard, I took the initiative to propose a

settlement.

This move surprised both the police and Richard. After all, I had remained silent

throughout and had not communicated with Richard during the incident.

My actions–reporting to the police and then proposing a settlement–confused the police, but they had no objections and released both Richard and me.

Outside the police station, Richard confronted me, his voice cold and intense: “What’s your game?”

“Don’t think this means I’ll let you off the hook. I promise I’ll make sure you pay for what you did to Jessica!”

I looked at Richard seriously and asked: “Richard, in all the years we were together, did you ever see me ask for money?”

Richard was momentarily taken aback. After a moment’s thought, he frowned and asked: “No, what are you getting at?”

“I’m making a point,” I replied.

“I want you to understand a few things clearly.”

“In all the time we’ve spent together, I’ve never asked anything of you. I never accepted any of your transfers and always insisted on splitting the bill. If I were truly someone who takes advantage of others, why would I have behaved this way?”

My tone was calm yet resolute.

Richard’s frown deepened as his expression grew increasingly troubled, his silence indicating deep contemplation.

I continued: “Moreover, given that I don’t even know all the rules of the you really believe I’d be involved in gambling?”

“Furthermore, if jessica had truly spent so much on me, would I still be living in a small, old apartment?”

“Did you find any valuables when you vandalized my home?”

“Richard, I understand you care for Jessica and may have biases against me, but I hope you’ll think clearly about whether Jessica’s accusations really hold up.”

My words made Richard’s face grow even darker, but he remained silent.

I knew Jessica was skilled at masking her true self. She had always portrayed herself as the sweet and considerate girl in front of Richard.

That’s why he was so infatuated with her and believed everything she said.

Seeing Richard’s continued silence, I pressed on: “I didn’t call the police to have you arrested. I wanted to have a serious discussion with you.”

“Jessica isn’t as virtuous as you think. The things she’s accused me of are actually her own actions.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can have someone check Jessica’s daily activities and her hometown. Her family was barely scraping by before she met you, and she often came to my place for meals. Yet now, her family is incredibly wealthy, the envy of the entire village.”

“She claimed to have spent money on me, but most of it went to herself, her family, and even other men.”

With that, I turned and walked away without looking back.

This time, Richard didn’t try to stop me.

My offer to reconcile wasn’t about sparing Richard, it was to let him and Jessica sort out their issues and let them deal with each other’s wrongdoings.

A mere detention wouldn’t adequately punish Richard or impact Jessica.

I wanted Richard to expose his own wrongdoing and for the mess in his family to be made public.

I wanted Jessica to face the full consequences of her actions.

An eye for an eye, and then some.
