Chapter 107

Russel surely was one unlucky dude.

I only knew about his losing battle with Neil in my past life, but I didn’t know that before this competition, he’d already planted the seeds of his own tragedy.

And it all started with Karina

Karina was also a medical student, a classmate of Russel’s. At first, Karina was chasing after Russel, but Russel wasn’t in the mood for romance at that time, so he never gave Karina any response.

This would break his heart!
