Adopted Son Ascends, Bestie Returns From the "Grave"

My name is Melanie Sutton. The moment I'm reborn, the first thing I do is scatter the "ashes" of my best friend, Helen Doyle.

In my last life, she got pregnant before marriage and was abandoned by both her boyfriend and her family. She struggled alone all the way through childbirth, only to suffer massive bleeding in the delivery room.

With her last breath, she begged me to adopt her son.

I agreed out of pity.

To raise the child, I fell behind in my studies and was forced to drop out of school.
