Everyone in Riverton knew Serena Prescott, the heiress of the Prescott family, collected boyfriends for the short term and never kept them for long. In five years of marriage, she had gone through ninety-nine new lovers. People in our circle said I had world-class patience, that I was the perfect husband who could endure anything. Then a swimming coach named Mason Clark appeared at Serena's side. Mason came from an ordinary family, yet he made her break her own rule about never bringing new lovers home. Serena gave me two choices. Either calmly accept him moving in, or take the money and leave, ending our marriage. Everyone was waiting to see me swallow my pride for love and keep playing the useless, obedient husband. This time, I chose divorce. Because in my last life, I chose to endure it, and all I got was Mason pushing further and further. He forbade Serena from sharing a room with me and only allowed her to see me once a month. In the end, the two of them had a son and a daughter and lived in endless glory. I guarded a marriage that existed in name only, then died of illness in a nursing home. Now that I've been given another life, I no longer have any attachment to her. I took half the fortune in exchange for the freedom of the rest of my life.

Suddenly, a fair hand reached over and snatched my phone away.Vivian glared at the phone and shouted with full force."Get lost. Serena Prescott, listen carefully. My man only loves me."With that, she hung up hard and tossed the phone to the other side of the sofa.Then she turned back and glared at me with reddened eyes."You still have her in your heart, don't you?"Caleb Warren, if you get softhearted now and want to go to the hospital, I, Vivian Sinclair, won't stop you."She sniffed and lifted her chin stubbornly."But then, the two of us are done."I looked at her, jealous for my sake and so angry she was about to cry.The annoyance that Serena had caused in my heart vanished in an instant.I didn't say anything. I simply pulled Vivian into my arms and hugged her tightly.Then I affectionately pinched the tip of her nose."What nonsense are you saying? I'm not going."I softened my voice. "I'm staying home to take good care of my jealous little sweetheart."She f

"Forget it. Someone old-fashioned like you must think I'm too forward."I'm done chasing. Whether you say yes or not, I don't care anymore."She turned to leave, but I caught her wrist.She looked back in surprise.What Serena Prescott gave me had been a beautiful cage.But the woman in front of me was bold and passionate, like a flame, with the power to pull me out of the ashes of the past.Hadn't I been reborn so I could escape the past and start over?Under Vivian's stunned gaze, I took her hand and spoke softly."Are you free tomorrow?"Let's go on a date."On New Year's Eve, two major events shook Riverton.First, under the glittering lights of the riverfront, I got down on one knee and successfully proposed to Vivian Sinclair.Drones formed her name over the river, and the crowd around us erupted into roaring blessings.Second, Mason Clark drove into the pregnant Serena Prescott, then fled the scene.Serena was sent into surgery and narrowly escaped death.That nig

Every word stabbed into Mason like a needle.He yelled at them, "Don't try to brainwash me. I'm not an idiot like Caleb Warren."I'm not going to be some mindless housekeeper for the Prescott family like he was."He laughed hysterically, tears flying from his eyes."Now you miss him? Too late. He's never coming back."You selfish people broke his heart.""Shut up."Serena snapped at him.But Mason ignored her and glared at her with almost manic intensity."Why should I? You're thinking about him too, aren't you? You regret it too, don't you?"I'm telling you, Serena Prescott. You're the one who came after me first. You're the one who said you'd only treat me well from now on."His voice trembled with a reckless determination to drag them both down."If you dare keep someone else in your heart, I'll take you down with me."Before he had finished speaking, he rushed out of the villa like a gust of wind.Serena stood still.She didn't chase him. She wasn't even worried.Sh

"Vivian Sinclair! What are you doing here?"Vivian crossed her arms and walked elegantly to my side in high heels."I came to see the man I like."She glanced at Serena and curled her lip."Didn't expect to arrive just in time to see him threatened by a toad."What now? You can't have him, so you're trying to use force? Has Miss Prescott switched to organized crime?"Serena shook with anger."Stay out of this. This is my family matter."Vivian Sinclair was the daughter of an old-money Riverton family, and she had been Serena's most hated rival since childhood."Family matter?"Vivian laughed in exaggerated disbelief and naturally took my hand."Wake up, Miss Prescott."He stopped wanting you ages ago. Clinging to him is already embarrassing enough. Not understanding your position is even sadder.""You!"Provoked beyond reason, Serena raised her hand to slap Vivian.I reacted quickly, stepped forward, and caught her wrist."That's enough."My voice was full of warning.
