Repeating Time For The Perfect Revenge
Chapter 3
I stared at the reflection of my reflection in front of the mirror. No slap marks on my cheeks. The corner of my lips was also not hurt. It was as if it were all just a nightmare. But the pain and disappointment is so real it's just a dream.
I rubbed my cheek which I believe was red and swollen from my father's former slap. Then it turned to the corner of my lips that should have been hurt.
“I never imagined Dad would slap me like that. It turned out that in his eyes I was nothing more than a mere tool.”
My cell phone is located on the nightstand. I was absolutely certain that time had spun twice after I checked the date today.
“Means I still have to finish my current lecture.”
A smile was engraved on my face. I remember in these days I had a lot of friends. But one day they turned out to be my enemy just because of a misunderstanding about me and a bad rumor that was circulating about me. I didn't know who was behind the rumors until I graduated from college.
Drrt... Drrt...
The vibrations from my phone awakened me from my banquet. The name Giovano is there.
“Halo.”
“Where are you? You're not logged in today?”
“Hah?”
“Today there's a quiz.”
I was silent for a moment. If this is the quiz I avoided because I wanted to get closer to Timothee according to Dad's plan, then this is the day that bad, unfounded rumors about me started spreading on campus.
“Alicia! You don't have any plans today? You better spend your time with Timothee today so you guys get to know.” faster
As I suspected, my father appeared from behind my bedroom door. He doesn't even knock like Lucy's mother.
“I'll be there soon. Quiz has already started?”
“Okay. No, the quiz hasn't started yet. Mr. Jordan hasn't arrived this morning either.”
The phone connection was cut off as soon as I finished talking to Giovano.
“Today I have a quiz, Dad.”
“Then let Timothee take you all the way to campus.”
No objection came out of my mouth. It would be a waste if I refused my father's advice. I'm afraid he's going to explode and beat me up.
“Good, Father.”
***
“Thank you for driving me.”
“Iya. When you are finished, yes! You don't have any plans today?”
“Iya. Looks like I haven't got any plans today.”
I left Timothee and his car in the parking lot. I'll be right into my faculty building.
Even though the man seemed to dislike this matchmaking, he still performed his role well. Unfortunately all the falsehood was too visible for my eyes at this time that seemed to have gained enlightenment.

“Alicia!”
Giovano greeted me as soon as I entered the classroom.
“I don't think you're going in today. Could serious. You will have to repeat this course next year.”
It seems that God is on my side this time. Not long after I entered, Mr. Alexander Jordan entered the classroom.
I smiled looking at that eight-year-old different man with me. He was the older brother of Timothee Jordan who always gave my fiance a sense of inferiority. The pride of the Jordan family.
The solution to my revenge is now right in front of my two eyes right now. A fitting revenge solution for my jerk-off fiance and his infidelity.
“As per my previous appointment, today's quiz.”
I could hear the sound of d3sahan resigned from around me. They began to tidy up their books and left only one pen on their table.
***
In my previous life, Alexander Jordan was the strongest heir of the Jordan family. Timothee has always had an inferior complex towards her brother because she could never be the heir of the JJ Group run by her family.
Alexander Jordan had a fiance, but before they were married, their engagement was annulled. I don't know the reason behind it because it was never revealed by the media and never leaked to the public.
Until the day death approached me, he had not married. It was a very good opportunity for me in life this time. At least I don't have to act cheap like Lucy snatched someone else's fiancee. Although I am not sure that the path I took to get the man was truly holy and clean. After all, my intention is indeed revenge, not to intend to be a holy and clean figure.
“Class today finished.”
The man stepped both of his legs out of the classroom. His assertiveness and self-esteem as a lecturer followed each step of his foot.
Sometimes I wonder why he chose to be a lecturer at this campus, even though he has a guaranteed future. On the other hand I am also grateful, because his position as a lecturer in my faculty makes it easier to meet him.
“Goddess Fortuna seems to be siding with me.”

“You finished slower than I imagined.”
I glanced lazily towards Timothee who was sitting behind the wheel. I wanted to avoid meeting him, but I should have a good reason for that.
The corner of my eye caught the silhouette of the man I recognized. A smile spread across my face as soon as I knew he was Alexander.
“Wait a minute!” The movement of my hand stopped the movement of Timothee who was about to start the engine of his car.
“I have something to do today. It seems I can't go home with you today.”
At a glance, I could see the dislike look that Timothee had revealed. But he instantly removed that expression and replaced it with a friendly smile that had always tricked me all along.
“What's that important?”
“Iya,” I replied steady.
“I have no problem waiting for you to finish.”
“Do not!”
He was surprised by my voice suddenly rising.
“I'll be a big deal to you. I may have finished longer than you imagined. I'll ask the driver at my house to pick me up.”
“Do not worry. I don't have a problem. After all you are my fiancee. It's only natural that I do so.”
‘Yes, but you still kill me in the future, my inner’.
Panic struck me as soon as I saw Alexander get in his car. He drove his car out of the parking lot of my faculty without me preventing it.
I sighed harshly as soon as the opportunity I expected vanished before my two eyes.
“What is your business with my brother?”
“Iya.”
The answer that came out of my mouth without me noticing made Timothee squint her eyes suspiciously at me. I could see his grip on the wheel hardened.
“He's a lecturer at my faculty. Of course I have business with him related to the courses he taught.”
His expression began to soften. His grip on the steering wheel also began to loosen.
“But he's gone. That means you have no other business after this, right?”
No objection came out of my mouth. After all, I have nothing else to do but meet her brother. It's not because of my academic problems.
