Chapter 4: Welcoming a New Life

'Yep, this is it,' Loraine thought as she filled the tub with warm water. 

There were bottles near the tub. When she read it, it was supposed to be added to her bath water, so she did.

'Smells so good,' Loraine smiled and got rid of the alcohol-reeking clothes she had on.

"Hmm. Feels good. This is what you call life," she murmured as she dipped her body into the water. 

The warm water felt so rejuvenating. And the flower-scented soaps helped her relax even more.

In her previous life, she could not even afford long dips in the bath since she always had a lot of work to do and schedules and deadlines to meet.

Mr. Bale worked her to the bone. Now, she is dead. He lost his secretary due to giving her too much all the time.

'Would Mr. Bale even grieve my death?' Loraine thought sadly. 

Would the boss she worked hard for even truly appreciate everything she did for him?

Would he feel a sense of loss after she died?

Or did he simply hire a new secretary like nothing happened?

'Humphed! I should have demanded a higher salary and spent it every single day.

I should have taken all my Saturdays and Sundays off and spent it living a life,' Loraine once again had regrets.

Regrets only come in the end indeed.

But now, she won't let that happen.

She needed to enjoy this second life.

While relaxing in the tub, Loraine was already planning on how to live her second life as Loraine Antares.

Now that she thought about it, in this world, she could fulfill her dreams of doing whatever she wanted! 

Her long-awaited dream, which she worked hard for in her previous life, had finally come true in her second life!

It was a little bit ironic because she didn't need to do anything this time. 

Other people won't even suspect her because the original owner was already living in this manner.

'Hahaha. I think I am finally getting rewarded for all my hard work and determination,' Lorraine internally laughed maniacally.

She would maximize this life to the best of her desires.

'Bwahaha. 

I will spend so much money from now on!

Yes, to a luxurious life!

Yes, to branded stuff!

Yes, to expensive vacations!

Yes to lazing around!'

Loraine declared with determination.

She would do everything she pleases in this life.

No more procrastinating on enjoying her life.

She realized that life could be too quick and short so she wouldn't waste any more time.

As long as she does not commit any crimes, she should have no trouble doing a lot of things. 

In fact, with her new family's wealth, even if she committed a crime, as long as it wasn't too serious, everyone would simply close their eyes. 

Anyway, it was pointless to think about it, because Loraine still intended to be a good citizen. 

Was there even a benefit in becoming a criminal? 

There isn't, right? 

So, rather than causing more trouble for herself, it was better to be a good citizen.

Why?

Of course, so she would be able to live a carefree, desire-driven, free, and prosperous life as Loraine Antares.

She was no longer a secretary. And even though as Miss Antares, she now owns a company, it was already managed by others. 

The company will still continue to run smoothly without her, thanks to the manager hired by the original owner's father. 

A lot of wealthy daughters were already running their own companies, so the original owner simply wanted an entertainment company to manage on the spur of the moment. 

Even if her father did not pay much attention to her, he was still aware that his own daughter would be reluctant to engage in other unnecessary and bothersome matters.

Thus, her father had already hired a manager for her.

Loraine was unaccustomed to having so much wealth and power at her disposal. 

Though she wanted to spend money and had nothing to be guilty of since she did not even know how she was brought here, she still felt sorry for the original owner. 

They were both unlucky to die so suddenly. 

Was the original owner already living her second life too?

Was she brought to another world as well, after her death?

Loraine couldn't help but wonder what happened to the original owner. 

Since Loraine would be using Miss Antares' body and wealth, she would continue to pray that the latter would have an even better life wherever she was.

For now, Loraine decided that she could do things confidently and without any worry because she had a lot of money on her side. 

Unlike her previous life where she had to follow set schedules all the time, now she could spend her time as she pleased.

If there were problems, they could be resolved right away with all the money at her disposal.

While relaxing in the tub, Loraine was already planning to go on a tour. 

'Yes, that's it!

I never went on tour in my previous life.'

The only times she traveled were when she had to accompany Mr. Bale on business trips.

She never went on a trip for leisure purposes.

Thus, in this life, Loraine had traveling at the top of her list of things to do.

Moreover, she still had a lot to learn about this world.

She never had the chance to see her old world with her own eyes.

But this time, she would see this world for herself.

And she had the time and money to do it!

This world appeared to be similar to her previous world, but there were significant differences. 

For instance, the planet still went by the name Earth and was still a part of the same solar system. 

There were still seven continents, but their names were all distinct.

This world's history was nearly identical to that of her previous world too. 

As a result, the development of this world was nearly the same as that of the other. 

Loraine only needed to do a little more research later to figure out why the entertainment section of this world was a little bit more advanced.
