I time-traveled back to my senior year of high school. Stella Crane, who had always been timid, completely shed her usual meekness and suddenly cornered me in a restroom stall. She pulled out the latest iPhone and flipped through one jaw-dropping transfer after another, warning me to stay away from Dash Hollis. "Margot, open your eyes and see. Love follows money. Dash loves me, not you." I remembered the betrayal from my previous life. After Dash had risen to fame and success with my help, he didn't hesitate to sell out my company's secrets, leaving my family ruined and broken. And then he had the nerve to tell me outright that he hated me. He hated me for insulting him with money, for forcing him to be with me, for making Stella suffer all those years. Now, when I remained silent, Stella's eyes reddened with panic. She pulled a fruit knife to her neck. "You've already stolen everything from me. Dash is the only light left in my life. You are not allowed to hitch a ride home with him. Do you hear me?" Watching her spiral like this, I simply nodded and quietly unlinked the secondary card I had given Dash. This time, I wanted to see what a maid's son could possibly use to redeem a poor soul.
