Big Bad Tropes

Broke, jobless, and just one bad day away from giving up, Jake Morrison thought life had hit rock bottom. That was until a tragic accident killed him—only for time to snap back like a rubber band, giving him a second chance... and a mysterious power: the ability to rewind time by sixty seconds. With each reset, Jake turns misfortune into opportunity—from saving a young girl from abuse, to surviving gang ambushes, to winning the lottery with calculated precision. But every miracle comes at a price. As he navigates shadowy threats, run-ins with ex-lovers, and the twisted politics of Stellar International Corporation, Jake realizes he’s being watched—and not everyone wants him to succeed. Thrown into a world where secrets are currency and power is everything, Jake finds himself pursued by gangsters, entangled in corporate warfare, and caught between two women: Grace, the selfless landlord who believes in him, and Christine, the seductive classmate with motives of her own. Money. Power. Revenge. Love. Jake’s got one minute to rewrite his future… But what happens when time runs out?

They all refuse to believe his words, but when the truth gets revealed, they all crawl and beg for his forgiveness!

Hindi siya nito magawang mapainit kaya naman mas pinili niyang umalis sa tabi nito. Galit na galit niyang sinumpa na gagawin niya ang lahat upang mahanap siya saan mang lupalop ng mundo ito naroon. Alam ng buong lungsod ang kanyang kapalarang tila mauupos sa ilang milyong piraso. Nagmamakaawa niyang tinanong, “Umalis ako sa relasyong ito nang walang kinuhang kahit ano, bakit hindi mo pa ako pakawalan?” Sinagot sya nito na may pagmamalaki, “Ninakaw mo ang puso ko at iniluwal ang aking anak, ngayon pipiliin mong umalis?”
