A Man Reborn: Beg for My Heart

Three years after Vincent Harper and Samara Copeland got married, the marriage was as good as over. Sarama, the woman Vincent had loved and cherished with all his heart, had him sent to prison.…The stench of blood and mildew filled the suffocating air in the prison cell. Vincent curled up on the freezing floor with a bitter, self-mocking smile on his face.It had been a year since his imprisonment, and he could no longer remember how many times he had been beaten and tortured. But he knew one thing for certain—Samara had to be the one behind everything.After all, in her eyes, he was the man who had caused the deaths of her mother, Mabel Pearson, and her younger brother, Shane Copeland.Vincent couldn't understand it, though. Why did the woman he loved so dearly make his life a living hell like that without even giving him a chance to defend himself?As his consciousness gradually faded, the last things that flashed through his mind were the countless memories he shared with Sa

Vincent's entire body went rigid. He stood frozen in place, too stunned to even breathe. His gaze shifted between Samara and Zachary, hoping to see something in their expressions that would clue him in on what was going on.Samara's hug suffocated him. He could feel the heat from her body seeping through their clothes, but it only made his heart feel colder. He couldn't understand why she was suddenly being so intimate with him. This was nothing like the woman he remembered."Ms. Copeland, what are you…" Vincent couldn't help but ask, his voice hoarse and quivering ever so slightly.Samara slowly released him and stepped back. The raw emotion in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by something far more complicated. She looked at him as though searching for something or hesitating for some particular reason."Vincent, can we talk alone?" she abruptly asked, her voice more gentle than Vincent had ever heard in his previous life.His heart tightened. He had no idea what game she was p

Vincent's eyes widened in horror. He stared at the face inches away from his own, unable to believe what was happening.It wasn't until he could feel Samara's breath washing over his lips that he snapped back to his senses and fought back with all his might. Without hesitation, he pushed away the woman who was pressing herself against him.Had she lost her mind?Vincent was completely thunderstruck. The fury at having been harassed like that burned within him.Samara could sense his strong resistance, and her expression darkened at once. Without warning, she shoved him in the shoulder, her eyes flickering with shock and displeasure.For a moment, Vincent's breath faltered. He even got the feeling that she'd kill him. But before the fear had even receded, she leaned in once more. This time, she planted a soft, gentle kiss on his lips.Her lips seemed to convey a sense of tender longing and cherished affection, but the sensation only made his stomach churn.Once again, he fought h

As the moon arced through the sky, the pale moonlight also moved, spilling across Samara's resolute expression, intensifying the cold determination in her eyes.Setting down her wine glass, she walked over to the desk and opened the drawer. Inside was an encrypted document she'd meticulously prepared in advance to deal with all future variables. Since she'd promised to help Vincent, she had to make sure nothing went wrong.In her previous life, it was only after Vincent's death that she learned the truth—that he was the one who'd been secretly supporting Copeland Group, allowing it to expand smoothly.He'd cast aside his own ambitions and readily stayed in her shadow. Not only had he assumed the responsibility of looking after Mabel and Shane, but he'd also cleared all the obstacles in her path, allowing her to focus entirely on growing the company.But she'd been a blind idiot, mistaking garbage for gold. She'd let herself be hoodwinked by Zachary and had personally ruined Vincent

Vincent had just reached home and gone upstairs when he saw Walt standing in front of his room with his hand raised to knock on the door.After awkwardly retracting his hand, Walt looked at Vincent, who asked, "Did you need something, Dad?"Truth be told, since being reborn, Vincent no longer felt the urge to even speak to Walt unless absolutely necessary.Walt nodded."I've spoken to Ms. Copeland about delaying the marriage. She has agreed to it, saying it's fine to wait until you graduate before getting engaged and to hold the wedding after you return from studying abroad."Vincent did not react immediately. He froze for a moment before nodding in acknowledgment."But you better not cause any trouble during this time," Walt added warningly. "The company needs Copeland Group's support right now."Everything out of Walt's mouth involved some kind of demand or expectation of Vincent. He stared at Walt in silence, bitterly laughing on the inside. His beloved father cared for nothi
