On the day of my ninth wedding attempt, my fiancé, Lucas Yearwood, leaves me jilted again. This time, I follow him. I see him holding his adoptive sister's hand as they walk into the obstetrics department. "Lucas, I dreamed that we're having a boy—he's definitely going to be as handsome as you." Watching the two of them laugh and chat like that, I feel my blood freeze. After I chased Lucas for seven years, I got a chance to use a debt of gratitude to force a marriage contract out of him. I backed him into a corner to make him marry me. Everyone thinks I can't survive without him. But this time, I hand the marriage contract back and leave him without looking back. On my wedding day, he calls me. "Viv! Where are you right now?" I'm in the shower. My new husband picks up the call for me. "Do you have business with my wife?" Later, I hear Lucas turned all of Riverville upside down, digging through every trash can to find our marriage contract.

Chasing What Can't Be Had Chapter 12
As for Anna, I pressed charges against her for attempted murder. She would spend the next ten years in prison. Everything had returned to calm.But while tidying Clayton's study one evening, I discovered the crumpled marriage contract that Lucas had discarded. It was tucked inside a book on the desk.Clayton had smoothed out the contract, even gluing back a torn corner. He had flattened out all the wrinkles, which now looked brand new.My heart inexplicably trembled upon seeing the marriage contract I used to look at every night. Not to mention… The contract that originally had Lucas Yearwood and Vivian West written on it was now Clayton Yearwood and Vivian West.Besides this, I also found a photograph among his books. It was a picture of me winning the state swimming championship at 20 years old. I was holding the medal in the photo and smiling brightly at the camera.I vaguely remembered fragments of that day. It was the first time I saw Clayton. Lucas had brought him along. I

"If it weren't for you, Luke wouldn't have had my baby aborted!"My face turned bright red as I struggled to breathe. Seeing I was about to suffocate, Anna released her grip."I won't kill you myself. That would dirty my hands."You guys! Beat this slut to death, then throw her into the sea to feed the fish!" Anna commanded the thugs beside her, her face contorted with malice.As the thugs approached me with wooden clubs, I ignored the pain in my throat and tried to untie the ropes around my wrists while distracting Anna."Anna, I've already broken up with Lucas and married Clayton. I won't appear before you again! Can you try to calm down? Murder is against the law!"Upon hearing this, Anna walked toward me with a cold laugh. "You two may have broken up, but Luke still likes you! He's been unable to eat or sleep because of you."Now he's even searching through the landfill, saying he needs to find some marriage contract! He'll never look at me as long as you're still alive..."

"Lucas, it's not just a few days. It's been nine years." I reminded him. Disappointment accumulated bit by bit. "Your eyes never saw me. They only ever saw Anna! Did you ever treat me as your girlfriend? You let your friends mock me, you allowed Anna to ridicule and hurt me repeatedly, and you even slept with her!""It was just that one time. I was drunk! I didn't even know what was happening...""Lucas! None of that really matters. What matters is that you never loved me..." My eyes reddened slightly as I finally said what I'd wanted to say for so long."I love you… I love you! I love you!" Lucas repeated loudly with bloodshot eyes."My love for you is real! Everything before was my fault. "I was stupid. It's only recently that I realized that I can't live without you! Can you give me one more chance? We can start over."He placed the tarnished ring in my palm, looking at me with eyes full of expectation. "Will you wear it? Will you be with me forever?"I was silent for a fe

I didn't understand. Everything had gone exactly as Lucas wanted."You worthless whore! Why don't you just die?"Anna grew even angrier when I didn't react and raised her hand to strike me again. But this time, Clayton blocked it, grabbing her wrist and throwing her to the ground.His voice was ice-cold as he spat, "Try hitting her one more time! You're always cursing and hitting people! Has no one taught you how to respect others?"Lucas immediately sat up in his hospital bed when he heard the commotion, attempting to get up despite the doctor's objections."Is that Viv? Has Viv come to see me?"Lucas sounded excited. I walked in and saw that Lucas had bandages wrapped around his head, and his arm was in a cast. His injuries looked serious.Lucas' eyes reddened when he saw me. He said, "Viv, I knew you wouldn't abandon me. I knew you still loved me."Ignoring everyone's protests, Lucas rushed over and embraced me. Clayton's eyebrows furrowed deeply as he stepped forward to sep

Marrying Clayton was never part of my plan. I hadn't expected that Clayton would actually be willing to marry me.After all, my reputation had been ruined over the past nine years because of my devotion to Lucas. They had called me Lucas' lapdog and said no one would dare marry me in the future.Clayton's circumstances weren't bad—in fact, they were exceptional. He was not only the heir to the Yearwood Group but also wealthy, handsome, and powerful.A man like him lacked nothing. So I couldn't understand why he would marry me.Was it to make amends for his nephew's mistakes? Or maybe to silence me? Meanwhile, I was too lost in thought to notice that Clayton had already gotten into bed.Clayton was already by my ear when I returned to my senses, his lips curved in a somewhat pleased smile as he asked, "What are you thinking about so intently?"His warm breath made my ear turn red. I was startled and instinctively clutched the blanket tighter."Don't come any closer! I'm not ready

Seeing Mr. Yearwood Senior, Lucas quickly grasped his hands and said with bloodshot eyes, "Grandpa, Viv is gone. Please help me find her!"Mr. Yearwood Senior frowned at these words. "Why are you looking for her? Isn't she leaving exactly what you wanted? After all, you don't even like her!""But I do!" Only now did Lucas understand his own feelings.Mr. Yearwood Senior grew angry and slapped him when he heard this. "You fool! You claim to like her, yet you got Anna pregnant? I'll let you know. It's too late for everything now!"Lucas' pupils contracted. "Grandpa, how... how did you know?""Vivian even came to plead on your behalf. If it weren't for her, I would have beaten you to death by now!"Enough! Since you've made a mistake, you need to make amends. I've come to grant your wish—I allow you to marry Anna!"Anna was overjoyed at this news. She ran forward, clutching Lucas' arm, and said with a smile, "This is wonderful, Lucas. We can get married! We can be together forever
