Chapter 1

Ethan's mistress killed my brother.

But he pushed a settlement agreement in front of me. "Stella has depression. She can't handle prison."

"Sign it. Your grandmother's heart surgery will proceed as planned. Don't sign, and that heart goes to someone else immediately."

We loved each other for ten years, and now he's using my grandmother's life to buy his mistress's freedom.

I signed.

Later, Grandma died anyway.

Because Stella went to the hospital and told her personally. "I'm the one who ran over your grandson. Oh, and your granddaughter's husband? He's mine now too."

Grandma couldn't catch her breath. Resuscitation failed.

I rushed into the Sinclair mansion with a knife. Before I could even reach Stella, Ethan slapped me across the face. "What the hell is wrong with you!"

That night, I jumped from a yacht into the deep sea.

Cold seawater flooded my lungs. I didn't struggle.

I thought that was the end.

Then Adrian Yale saved me.

"Some fools will regret losing you." He knelt on one knee.

"And I've waited three years for you. Give me a chance, will you?"
