Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 209 Shadows of the Past

The next day, Zelena’s phone suddenly received an email with a photo attachment during class.

When she opened it, she was shocked to see an old class photo from Eighth Middle School!

Someone had maliciously drawn a big red X over her face, giving it an eerie and unsettling appearance.

Along with the photo was a message: ‘Lena, long time no see. How have you been?’

Zelena fell silent, her breath catching as she stared at the unexpected and disturbing message on her phone screen.

Seeing the old class photo with a glaring red X over her face sent a chill down her spine, making her feel exposed and vulnerable.

Her mind raced with questions as she scanned the classroom, searching for clues about who could have sent such a haunting image.

The usual sounds of lessons filled the air: desks rustling softly and pens scratching against paper. Everyone seemed immersed in their own world, and nothing seemed out of place.

Hattie, seated nearby, noticed her unsettled state and shot her an annoyed glance. “What’s wrong with you?”

Zelena quickly turned her phone screen face down and forced a smile. “Nothing.”

Eighth Middle School was in Arlowand, but she was now in Quinston.

These were two cities, and no one at Toland University knew her as Lena. How could anyone here know her old name?

Could someone be messing with her on purpose?

Zelena suppressed her agitation and continued with her class.

From the back row, Violeta and Kaylee exchanged a knowing smile.
