How Death Became My Rebirth

“Jace, you're injured. Stop doing this. | know what's going on with you!”

Leonardo felt sorry for Jasper’s suffering.

He had to reveal the truth.

Jasper couldn't believe when he heard that all this was because of Cassandra.

He cursed, “That da mn Cassandra. | knew she was a jinx. How dare that bi tch play dirty tricks behind my back! It’s outrageous!” Hiss! My back really hurts!’ Jasper muttered inwardly.

Jasper then urged, “Leo, let’s go find Cassandra!”

Leonardo wanted to say more, but seeing Jasper in such pain, he couldn't bear it.

Leonardo thought, ‘Forget it. Let's do as he says. The priority is to get Jace treated!”

Outside Springmount Townhouse.

Cassandra was curious about where Kenneth had been these past few days. He hadn’t sent any messages at all.

However, she couldn’t help feeling annoyed with herself for caring about others.

She mused, ‘Who is he to me? Forget it. Let's get back to making medicine.”

“Cassandra, stop right there!”

Jasper, supported by Leonardo, walked up to her. The bloodstains on his white clothes look rather horrific.

“Tsk, retribution came surprisingly fast!’ mused Cassandra again.

“Mr. Leonardo Yates, Mr. Jasper Yates, how may | help you?” Cassandra smiled, and the mockery in her eyes couldn’t be hidden. Or rather, she seemed to take pleasure in others’ misfortunes.

“You! It’s you. What have you done to me? You made me look like this!” Jasper couldn’t wait to rush up and tear off Cassandra’s disguise.

He cursed inwardly, “This brat. How is she so good at pretending?”

Cassandra responded, “Mr. Jasper Yates, don’t wrongly accuse me. What could | have done to you? Have | ever approached you all this time?”

‘No, right? So, stop wrongly accusing me!’ she mused.

“Who else can it be but you? Is this your gift to me? You brat, I’m your brother. Is this how you'll treat me? You're vicious,” Jasper cursed loudly.

All his manners were gone.

The unbearable itching this morning had already made him irritable.

Seeing Cassandra’s defiant refusal to admit anything only fueled his anger.

“Heh, so what if it’s me? What can you do about it?”

It didn’t matter whether she admitted it or not.

She was thrilled as long as she could infuriate Jasper.

In her

previous life, the injection he gave her had made her taste the utmost pain. The pain had been magnified several times, and she had died in agony.

Therefore, this bit of itching was nothing.

“Hand over the antidote now!” Jasper thundered.

He thought, ‘You brat, it really is your doing! Once | get the antidote, I'll deal with you! I'll show you what I’m capable of!” “Why should | give you the antidote? Who are you?” It was amusing that they came to her asking for the antidote. She wondered what they were thinking.

“I'm your brother! Don’t act ignorant. Give me the antidote quickly, and | might consider letting you go. Otherwise, you'll regret it!” “Enough! Jace!” Leonardo yelled at Jasper.

Jasper was puzzled.

He wondered, ‘What’s wrong with Leo? Why is he being like that?”

“She is our sister. She’s a family member, not an enemy. Can you speak more gently?”

Now, Leonardo realized that Cassandra’s straightforwardness was genuine.

Unfortunately, he took too long to understand that.

“Leo, have you taken the wrong medicine? After all she’s done to me, you still want me to be gentle with her!” Jasper fumed. He thought, ‘Be gentle with her? No way! | won't be satisfied until she’s torn to pieces!”

Leonardo said, “You asked for it. Apologize now.”

That made Cassandra raise an eyebrow.

‘Oh, this is interesting. Leonardo has gone insane, too!”

“Leo, had you gone mad? Why should | apologize?” asked Jasper.

I'm not apologizing. Over my dead body!”

“| won't accept your apology either.” Cassandra didn’t give them a chance to speak. “Jasper, you'd better go home and soak yourself in water. Uh, preferably water of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It can relieve your symptoms. Some 32 degrees Fahrenheit cold. water works, too.”

They are such extreme opposites. No way he can endure it! Ordinary people find even 113 degrees Fahrenheit hot water scalding. Hot water at 140 degrees Fahrenheit, huh? This is going to be interesting! As for 32 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s almost like freezing. Let's see if the wound on his back can stand it!” she mused.

Cassandra had specially developed this to deal with Jasper. There was nothing else special about it other than itching and pain. He would be fine after a month.

It looked like she had to update the prescription.

Suddenly, her phone beeped twice.

It was an urgent mission notification from National Security Bureau.

Once again, she cursed her stu pidity from her previous life.

She hurried back to the mansion, leaving Leonardo and Jasper in a daze.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

On the second floor of the mansion, she quickly logged into her National Security

Bureau account and found that everyone had already gathered.

[OMG! What am | seeing? Is this Emery? Emery is back!]

[My goodness, it’s really her!]

[What a special day today!]

[I haven't seen Emery for months. | thought she quit National Security Bureau quietly!]

These were her comrades-in-arms, or one could say, internet friends.

They were the most extraordinary existence in National Security Bureau. No one knew their whereabouts and even their phone numbers were unknown to each other. There was only this unique local area network. Only those who logged into this network were one of their own.

Their main task was to protect the information security department of National Security Bureau. Be it classified documents or personnel, their unstoppable hacking skills were needed.

Cassandra wrote: [It’s been a while.]

[It's been a long time, Emery!]

[It's been a while. | finally see you again!]

[I thought you just disappeared!]

Suddenly, someone interrupted.

The person typed: [This time, we need you all to go offline for an urgent mission. We've arranged a meeting for you.] Cassandra typed back: [What mission?]

[Our Falcon Special Operations Force is assisting the army in completing Evacuation Operation, but they still have a very challenging task that requires the support of you. technocrats.]

Daniel Walker, the director of National Security Bureau, led their team. Thus, their tasks were personally assigned by him. This time, they were to cooperate with Falcon Special Operations Force to rescue 32 scientists and bring them back to the country. However, the site where these scientists. were being held was a highly technological facility, and they were currently stuck at the first hurdle.

The few hackers of Falcon Special Operations Force were at a loss, and in desperation,

they had to seek help from the special department of National Security Bureau.

Cassandra replied: [I'll take this mission.]

She contemplated, ‘If | remember correctly, this special operations force is the one led by Kenneth. Since they are in danger, | should help them!”

[rll go!]

[I'm going too!]

[Me three!]

[Count me in. I’m going to meet Emery offline, too!]

Almost everyone in the group signed up for the mission.

Daniel wrote: [Let's all go together then. First, let's exchange our authentic identity information and phone numbers in the group. Once we arrive, it will be easier for us to contact each other. This mission is in our hands now!]
