Chapter 1
My husband and my son watched me die.
“You’re the reason I couldn’t be with the woman I love.
Grace Parrish, I f king hate you”
My husband shook my hand off when I was in the heart attack.
He would marry Sofia Jenkins after I die.
My son also said it was time to let his father pursue his own happiness.
I screamed desperately for help, but they didn’t even look back.
I stopped breathing with tears sliding my face.
If I had another chance, I swore I wouldn’t be so foolish again.
After being reborn, I turned down the Jenkins Group’s offer at once.
Then I applied to teach in a remote area over two thousand kilometers. away from home.
The professor frowned in confusion and asked, “I heard Antonio is about to be discharged. ”
“Aren’t you afraid he’ll fall for someone else if you leave now?”
Antonio’s figure flashed through my mind.
Everyone thought I was lucky to be with him.
He was diligent, ambitious, and strikingly handsome. By the time he hit thirty, he had already made a name for himself in the business world.
And me? I was merely his fiancée in name, a title secured by an arranged. marriage set up by our grandfathers.
With such a thought in mind, I smiled.
“It’s an arranged marriage. People nowadays don’t do that anymore.”
The professor was stunned by my statement. He opened his mouth but chose not to say anything eventually
My previous life was a nightmare.
I looked forward to my wedding with Antonio so much; little did I know it’d be the start of my suffering.
After we got married, Antonio turned down the job allocated by the army
Sofia Jenkins‘ grandpa, Ben Jenkins, arranged for him to work at the Jenkins Group.
His career had since taken off.
The Jenkins Group’s businesses were all over the country. With Ben’s help, Antonio became a higher–up within just a few years, and Sofia would follow him everywhere together with her daughter.
They looked more like a real family than we ever did.
Meanwhile, I stayed home, raising our son all by myself.
Little did I know, the son I raised would one day turn his back on me.
I only knew about his wedding with Sofia’s daughter from someone else.
Later, he frequently persuaded me to get a divorce.
He said. “Mom, Dad has lived a tough life because of you.
“You two are never a good match. Why don’t you let go? Set him free, so he can be happy with the one he really loves.”
His words broke my heart into pieces.
Why? Why was I the one to blame?
When Antonio’s parents fell ill, I looked after them 24/7 and ended up being exhausted.
When my son had a high fever, I carried him on my back and walked ten kilometers to the hospital. My feet were bleeding, but I endured it and kept on
Back then, what was Antonio doing?
He spent every day with Sofia, enjoying their time together.
As time passed by, more and more people started to point fingers at me.
They said I wasn’t good enough for Antonio and that I was his burden.
One day, my son once again urged me to get a divorce.
That was the day I chose to end my life.
He said a bunch of harsh words to me.
Little did he know, that the second he turned away, I had a heart attack.
I struggled to call for help, but he never once looked back.

At that moment, all I felt was regret and hatred.
But fate, it seemed. had other plans for me.
It wasn’t too late.
