"Am I reborn?"

Looking around at the familiar surroundings, Jalen Gaines was completely stunned.

His eyes revealed an incredulous expression.

Past events flashed rapidly through his mind.

In his previous life, Jalen had started his own business and established a company soon after graduating from college.

His achievements had attracted the attention of one of his seniors in college.

This senior was named Thomas Houghton.

At a time when Jalen was in desperate need of funds, Thomas offered to invest in him, and Jalen agreed without a second thought.

He was too naive then, having no precautions against Thomas, who seemed like a godsend.

However, once Thomas acquired Jalen's research results, he immediately took them to Jalen's rival company and betrayed Jalen, causing the company's financial chain to break!

Even when Jalen was at a dead end, Thomas showed no mercy.

Recalling this, a glint of icy determination flared in Jalen's eyes.

"Thomas, in this life, I will make you pay a hundred times over!"

Though he was determined, bringing down Thomas was not an easy task.

Thomas was a wealthy second-generation heir, with a family fortune amounting to billions.

To topple such a powerful family, Jalen needed a long-term plan.

With this in mind, he quickly composed himself.

"Jalen, will you go with me?"

As Jalen was lost in thoughts, a beautiful woman sidled up to him and spoke in a coquettish tone.

"It's too boring for me to go to a movie alone.

Jalen turned his head to look at Sara Brooks, a strange smile spreading across his face.

Sara was his senior in college and was acknowledged by all the male students as the school beauty.

And she was also Thomas's girlfriend!

Not only was Sara sweet-looking and curvaceous, her long legs left a deep impression on people.

In the eyes of others, Sara was the kind of goddess to be admired from afar, and many didn't even dare to start a conversation with her.

However, Jalen knew very well that she was a true sucker for good looks, and her personality was in great contrast to her appearance.

She lowered herself in front of handsome men like Jalen.

Moreover, she had somewhat of a seductive intent.

Otherwise, she would not have invited Jalen to an 8 p.m. movie.

Once, Jalen was a bit puzzled as she had a boyfriend but always asked him out for late-night movies.

However, after collaborating with Thomas, Jalen came to know the reason.

Because her boyfriend, Thomas, was impotent.

Thomas was a standard rich, second-generation heir and was quite handsome, so he successfully wooed Sara.

However, he had an erectile disorder, leaving Sara feeling like a widow despite being in a relationship.

This secret was something Jalen accidentally heard over the phone while he was drinking with Thomas.

He was shocked for a long time after hearing it.

And it explained Sara's constant flirting with him.

In his past life, Jalen was very naive, so he maintained his distance from Sara despite her advances.

But since he was reborn, everything was bound to change!

Since Thomas was unable to satisfy Sara, why couldn't he help Thomas take care of his girlfriend?

Just then, a mechanical voice suddenly rang in Jalen's ears.

[Ding, detected that the host is facing a choice. Fate selection system has automatically bound!]

[Ding, congratulations on triggering a fate selection!]

[Choice one: Go willingly, reward three million dollars as startup funds, and a special investment card

valid for two weeks

.]

[Choice two: Refuse Sara, and receive the title 'Honest Man'; the chance of being deceived increases by 100%

. The system will automatically unbind.]

Hearing the mechanical sound in his mind, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Jalen's face!

The online novels didn't lie; a system was indeed a standard feature for those reborn.

If he had this system, dealing with Thomas would become a lot easier in the future.

Without a second thought, Jalen decisively chose the first option.

He nodded instantly, revealing a gentle smile to Sara.

"Alright, Sara, let's meet at the cinema on Maple Road at seven-thirty in the evening."

After saying this, Jalen took one last glance in Thomas's direction and then turned and left the field.

Maple Road was right behind their campus, filled with various hotels and private cinemas.

It was the perfect place for lovers in the throes of passion.

Sara inviting Jalen to such a place had an obvious implication.

"Alright, Jalen, see you tonight!"

A look of anticipation appeared on Sara's face when she heard that.

She watched Jalen's departing figure and then turned back to glance at Thomas, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.

As soon as Jalen left the field, he received a text message from the bank.

[Deposit of three million dollars received!]

Jalen had just clicked the message when the system rang out again.

[Selection completed. Reward deposited!

The source is legitimate and legal, feel free to use

]

[The Special Investment Card has been automatically activated!]

[After the Special Investment Card is activated, you can flawlessly predict the stock market direction for the next two weeks. Proper utilization of the investment card can generate enormous returns!]

Listening to the voice in his ear, Jalen revealed a satisfied smile on his face.

This system's efficiency was impressive. No sooner had he made his choice than the system reward was credited to his account.

Moreover, the reward was remarkably generous.

In his past life, he had worked hard for nearly ten years only to accumulate assets worth three million dollars.

But now, the system had given him three million dollars outright!

However, compared to the money, the Special Investment Card given by the system was obviously a much more useful tool.

With a two-week window, if used wisely, he could at least double or even increase his three million dollars by more than ten times!

With these resources, dealing with Thomas would be much easier!
