When I opened my eyes again, my boyfriend was glaring furiously at that woman, ready to lash out. But what he did not know was that the plain-looking middle-aged woman was the wife of the local underworld leader. The local underworld leader was well-known for his affectionate treatment of his wife.
——
"Alice, can you please stop being so sensitive every time I'm with Daisy? I’m warning you—don’t interfere this time! She is pregnant and she must sit here!"
Larry Jones, my boyfriend, warned me in a hushed voice. His warning snapped me back to reality.
I glanced at the embarrassed middle-aged woman standing next to the seat and at my own hand that had already stretched out to stop him.
That was when I realized I had truly been reborn.
In my previous life, it was at this very moment that I had stopped Larry and allowed this middle-aged woman to sit all the way to her destination.
Only when we got off the train did I discover that this ordinary-looking woman was actually the wife of our biggest local underworld leader.
Because I stopped Larry from stealing her seat, he was able to escape this catastrophe.
