In order to save up money for my marital home, I go to great lengths to book five surgeries in order to treat my array of ailments and illnesses on the same day just so I can save up on the money meant for my painkillers. Because of that, I become a living legend in the hospital. But one day, I see my girlfriend, Jayne Atkinson, who's a penniless nobody like me, chatting with someone else in the VIP area of the hospital. For some reason, I decide to trail behind Jayne secretly. Jayne and her friends keep chatting with each other without a care in the world. "Why is it that rich women like you love acting in a drama where you fall in love with the commoner? Both you and Bianca do the same thing! Seriously, Jayne, when are you telling that guy the truth?" Jayne merely shrugs back. "Honestly speaking, Bianca is the only one who's ever fallen for Edison. The reason why I decided to date him is that I was worried that Bianca would break my childhood friend's heart by seeking Edison out." The answer leaves me rooted to the spot. My mind begins buzzing loudly. Bianca Lambert is my ex-girlfriend who has dumped me all of a sudden. Back then, everyone mocked me for punching above my weight and called me a pathetic loser trying to climb the social ladder. Bianca kicked me out of her life by dumping a glass of red wine onto me. Since then, I just want to be with a regular woman, whom I can spend the rest of my life with. Who would've thought that I've gotten tricked by another woman instead?

Edison's POVWhile listening to my accusations, Jayne couldn't utter a single word of defense.She knew I was right, but in the past, she never realized how deeply she had hurt me. It was only now, hearing the truth laid bare, that the inhumane reality of what they had done finally sank in.Tears streamed down her face."I know that I messed up, Edison, but please. I'm begging you… Just give me one more chance."I'll admit that my intentions were impure from the start, but I did fall in love with you later on."Loved me? Sorry, but I couldn't tell at all.Besides, finding out what Jayne's initial motives seemed to wipe out all remaining affection and interest I had for her. My love wasn't a cheap prize handed out to just anyone.Bianca was right—Jayne was way worse. At least Bianca had always been honest, while Jayne had waited behind my back to drive the knife in deep.How could someone like her ask for my forgiveness and beg for another chance?Every time I thought about th

Edison's POVWhen Jayne arrived in my hometown, she found no one around.A slight unease settled deep in her chest. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was happening.She scanned the village looking for someone to ask, but the streets were empty, as if everyone had gone somewhere.Why? What could be so important?She couldn't stay calm anymore and began hammering on doors down the street, one by one, until she finally met a young man.She frantically fired a barrage of questions at him. "Do you know who Edison Chance is? Where is he? Where's his family?"The young man looked at her, then casually replied, "He's getting married. They're at a wedding held in the county town, and the whole village went over to join the celebration."Jayne was completely dumbstruck.Married? How was that even possible? She and I had parted ways for just a few days, so how could I be getting married already? What right did I have to do that?She demanded the address and took off running,

Third-Person POVJayne had always believed she understood women. That was why she was convinced Bianca didn't love Rowan enough. She was terrified Bianca would have a change of heart and run back to Edison.So, she decided to take matters into her own hands. She figured if she could keep Edison tied to her, she would never have to worry about Bianca leaving Rowan again.She admitted her initial motives were evil from the start. She loved Rowan and didn't want him to get hurt, but over the years, she genuinely fell in love with Edison, too.She stared at the folder Bianca had thrown at her. The day Edison was admitted to the hospital, Jayne happened to be there visiting a friend, which meant he had long known the truth.As if to confirm her speculations, she pulled up the security footage.Sure enough, she saw his lone figure in the hallway.In that moment, she felt as if her world had collapsed, and endless guilt surged in her eyes.How much pain must he have been in? He had en

Third-Person POVAfter Jayne took the call, she listened to Rowan vent for a long time. She offered him warm, comforting words until his mood finally lifted.Bianca couldn't stand to watch any longer."Jayne, Rowan said he sees you as his little sister, and that's the only reason I've ever shown you respect."Edison isn't as vile as you made him sound."Although Bianca's words struck a nerve, Jayne stubbornly argued, "Oh, and do you think you're any better? When Edison was humiliated and your mom splashed wine on him, didn't you just stand aside and do nothing?"Also, I'll explain everything and make it up to him. I've treated him well all these years."Bianca grabbed her and slapped her hard across the face."Don't act like I don't know what you did! Do you have any idea that he just had surgery a few days ago?"Five surgeries in five days! How many people could endure something like that? But he forced himself through it all alone."He saved every penny just to buy a house
