Immortal Lover [QT]

3. New mission.

[Well, according to what happened before I rewound the time, that girl would fall down the stairs, get paralyzed and then be harmed by her ex-boyfriend and his lover.]

"So? What does that have to do with my mission? I understand why I have to take revenge for Isaac, since I am currently occupying his body, but why should I save her?"

[Well, I don't actually know. But sometimes, there are additional missions you have to complete in these worlds. The more missions you successfully complete, the bigger the energy we obtain from this world right after we leave.]

"What do we need that energy for?"

[To travel to other worlds and also strengthen your soul a little bit...actually your soul doesn't need much energy, but it's good to have it either way.]

Zaccariah understood there was something the system wasn't telling him, but he didn't ask, since he knew he wouldn't get an answer.

"Then, tell me who she is, at least."

[Her name is Reina Colt, she is a famous actress and she's only 25 years old. In the original timeline, she was paralyzed after this accident, then her life became harder due to the countless things that this disgusting couple did to get rid of her.]

"Why would they do that?"

[Alain and Reina had known each other since they were kids, then Reina moved to another country and only came back five years ago. Alain had always been in love with Reina, but since she wasn't there, he started dating someone else, who looked a lot like her.]

"No wonder she hates Reina. She is a substitute. She doesn't look much like Reina, though. Is he blind?" Zaccariah laughed.

[Indeed. So, when Reina came back, Alain broke up with Jade and tried to win Reina's love. He spent years chasing after her, until a couple of months ago Reina finally accepted him and they started dating. Reina knew nothing about his previous relationship though, because Alain had sent Jade to another country and forbid her coming here. Everything went well for a couple of months, then Jade showed up, making Reina understand everything. She was disgusted, so she broke up with him immediately, but Alain continued to pursue her once again.]

"So, why does he hate her now?"

[Because Jade seduced him again and made him believe that Reina tried to hurt her. Even though Alain loved Reina, he didn't like how she never asked for his opinion and always did things her own way. He wanted to have control over her, to claim her as his, just like he had done with Jade. But Reina wasn't as easy as Jade. She refused to bow down to a man.]

"So he went back to the substitute. And now he wants them both? What a scumbag."

[You need to stop that scumbag from hurting her, because he will try. He is also a CEO of an entertainment company and has a rich powerful family to back him up, and he currently hates her more than he loves her, so do something.]

"What the hell I am supposed to do? I barely even know her."

[Well, get to know her then. And quickly.]

"Are you asking me to pursue her?" He asked with surprise.

[What's wrong with that? This way, you will have a reason to be near her and protect her.]

Zaccariah pursed his lips and didn't reply. Then, he realized he was terribly late. "Oh, fuck."

He rushed to the meeting, facing many angry people and when that was finally finished, he asked his assistant, Vin. "Reina Colt, when did she sign up with our company?"

"Three months ago, sir. Is there something wrong?"

"Why did she come to us?"

"She was fired by the previous company she worked in."
