Rebirth Into My Second Chance

After Richard went out, his previous assistant, who'd been managing the remaining assets while Richard was behind bars, drove over. In my past life, this same assistant had discreetly passed me the morning-after pill, only for it to be discovered by Claude, leading to a humiliating confrontation.

Seeing the assistant again brought a flood of memories, making me pause for a second before I got into the car.

Richard tapped my head lightly. "Daydreaming?"

Snapping back to reality, I smiled as Claude's car appeared. He knew today was Richard's release day.

Claude's disheveled appearance, showing up with his messy hair and unshaven beard, was something I hadn't seen before. It was a stark contrast to the polished man I knew.

Richard scoffed, "Claire, get in the car. I need to talk with him."

Claude stepped out of his car and went toward us. I obediently sat back in the car and rolled up the window.

"Don't come any closer to Claire," Richard warned as Claude hastened his pace.

Claude sneered, "You think you can stop me, huh? I got you locked up once. And I can do it again."
