After being reborn, my spouse Edward Wilson regretted prioritizing his childhood companion and lost his sanity.
In my former existence, Edward had rescued me first due to my pregnancy. By the time he returned for his longtime friend Jessica Mitchell, a snake had already struck her. Edward harbored resentment towards me ever since.
Four weeks later, I found myself bound in a hidden chamber, surrounded by countless serpents slithering on the floor. I cried out in fear, but Edward's cold voice responded from beyond the door. He declared, "Elizabeth, you wretch. You caused Jessica's death, and now you'll experience what it's like to be bitten by snakes."
Ultimately, I was attacked by hundreds of snakes, and my body was consumed. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day of the incident.

Snakes, Betrayal, and a Second Chance at Survival

Two days after the staircase incident, the perpetrator was apprehended, and I was summoned to the police station.


The culprit was a mere 20-year-old. He confessed to being an ardent admirer of Jessica, a bird enthusiast, and sought to punish me on her behalf.


I chose not to press charges. Following a reconciliation, he was released by the authorities.


My acquaintance, Jennifer Lewis, a film director, was also my hiking companion.


"What's the situation between you and Jessica?" Jennifer inquired.


I responded indirectly, "Jennifer, I'll forward you some video evidence later. I hope you can help me expose the truth, apprehend the real culprits, and clear my reputation."


Jessica was set to host a fundraiser for endangered avian species at 7 PM in the Honor Hotel's 12th-floor ballroom.


The event would attract numerous media outlets and philanthropists.


I had endured online harassment in anticipation of this day.


Jessica had promoted this gathering on TikTok a month prior.
