Ava thought that everyone in the world was just like another. Only caring about their interests. But when she was about to die alone on the streets, the man sitting in front of her had appeared like a guardian angel. His gentleness and concern had made her death not so painful and her life not so pathetic. Through him, she had felt that world could be a beautiful place. And now that she had been given another chance at life, the first thing she did was to find him. She looked at the man that she only knew of his name said through gritted teeth, “Sir, I know that we barely know each other, but as fate has it, I have to marry you!” Leo looked at the little woman sitting opposite him and smiled, “Well, if you were a man, I would say that you definitely have some extra balls. But since you are such a beautiful lady, I would just have to reluctantly agree.” Ava blushed when she heard the man. She never knew that she would one day ask a man to marry her. She said with the sweetest smile,“But before that, I have some personal business to take care of. I hope you don’t mind that I am almost a divorcee.” “Your past has nothing to do with me. Once you become mine, there will be no room for regret even if you want to.”

Chapter 1

chapter 1

Chapter 1

Ava looked at the enormous bedroom where she had spent every cold night alone for three years and sneered in self-depreciation.

She had thought that marrying one of the most sought-after bachelors in the entire capital would be her greatest achievement, but she never imagined that it would be the beginning of her most miserable life.

For the past three years, although this was their matrimonial home, the man had only shown up a number of times, only to ridicule her or when he was bringing his women home.

But his family could come almost every single day to shame her and embarrass her. She had been turned from the young mistress of the Grayson family into an unwanted wild dog.

Ava woke up in a daze, she looked at the reminder on her phone and realized that it was three years ago on a day like this that they tied the note.

That day, three years ago had been the most hopeful day of her life, but three years later, it had only turned into a nightmare that bound her and refused to let her go.

They had met through an arranged marriage. Jason’s grandfather seemed to be very fond of her and the moment he had seen her, he decided that his grandson would marry no one but her. Jason tried to protest but he had no choice, as he either married her or he lost the right to inherit Grayson's family heirloom.

Although Ava was the eldest daughter of the West family, no one was particularly nice to her, especially her father and his step-wife.

She lived like an orphan in her own home ever since her mother died, and she had no say in anything, even if that thing had anything to do with her long-life happiness.

But she had been used to that life. When she was told that she was going to marry the Young Master of the Grayson family, for the first time in a long while, her face showed a hint of excitement. She had seen the Young Master of the Grayson family once, and she did not hesitate to accept the proposal.

What she had not expected was that she was only being transferred from one hellhole to another, and by the time she realized, it was already too late.

Ava looked at their photo had been in the same spot for three years and felt her eyes become wet. She knew that she could not have indulged it but she could not control her heart.

Every single day that the man did not come home, it only made her more determined to win him over. The more hopes she had, the more she fell for him. Although she knew that there was no chance between them, and she could have even taken the initiative to ask for a divorce, since she knew that the man would be more than happy to grant her that, she could not bring herself to say it.

As she looked at her haggard face in the mirror, a painful tear rolled down her cheek. For a man and a marriage that could never work, she had become unrecognizable even to herself.

Ava wiped the tears off her face. Although she was hurting, and a voice in her head was telling her to just give up and walk away, she had nowhere to go. The moment she divorced Jason, she would have nowhere else to go, because she was certain that the West family would never accept her back.

She could only continue to hope that one day, things would get better and the man would finally see her value, and maybe… just maybe treat her as his wife.

Ava went downstairs, and as always, she prepared breakfast and placed it on the table. The butler looked at her with pity in his eyes. All the servants were looking at her with scornful eyes and they did not have any regard for her.

“Mrs. Grayson, you don’t have to do this anymore.” The butler said. He had watched how Ava had been preparing every meal for the last three years, and he felt sad in his heart.

But every single day, she ended up disappointed. It was either eaten by the servants or the Graysons could come and make fun of it before throwing it in Ava’s face.

Ava looked at the kind-hearted butler and smiled warmly. Although she did not have a mother to teach her how to be a great wife to her husband, she knew that it was her responsibility to make sure that her husband was well taken care of.

“Uncle Sam, you know that it is my responsibility to do this. I did not have a choice the moment I signed my name on that marriage certificate.”

The butler, whom Ava had always called Uncle Sam, did not feel good when he heard that.

Everyone thought that Ava was undeserving of being Mrs. Grayson, but he saw different. This girl was very polite and respectful, and if the Young Master had given her a chance, they would have made one hell of a family.

But now…

Remembering that a certain woman had already returned to the country, he looked at Ava even more pitifully.

He had tried his best to tell her to leave for the last three years, but now he could only sigh and hope that the girl would not do something she would regret.

After setting the table, Ava headed to the master bedroom. Since today was their wedding anniversary, maybe putting on one last fight wouldn’t be bad. Who knows, maybe the man’s heart would soften and he might come home.

Ava took a quick shower and put on a blue body-hugging dress. All the dresses in the closet were all bought by Jason and they almost looked the same. Ava figured that maybe it was what he liked that was why he had bought so many of them.

She stood in front of the mirror and stared at herself. She was a natural beauty but because of everything she had endured, her face became haggard and she looked ten years older than her age.

She did not know how to apply make-up, but to look presentable, she splashed some foundation on her face before she left.

“Mrs. Grayson, are you going somewhere? Do you need me to prepare the car for you?” the Butler asked when he saw Ava heading downstairs.

Ava looked at him and nodded with a slight smile on her face, “Yes, please, Uncle Tom. Today is our wedding anniversary and I want to bring breakfast to my husband.”

Tom did not say anything when he heard that. He only stared at her with a more worried look on his face.

“Should I inform the Young Master that you are heading over?”

“No need. I want it to be a surprise.”

The moment Ava left with her well-prepared breakfast; the maids started mocking her as they whispered in smaller voices.

“Look at her. She is so full of herself. She really thinks that the Young Master will take a second look at her if she personally sends him breakfast?”

“I wonder what the old man was thinking, finding such a dumb woman for his grandson.”

“I bet the drama that is going to be in the office is going to be superb. Too bad there is no live stream.”

Ava entered the car and headed to Grayson Group of Companies. It had been long since the last time she went over, and her palms were sweating.

She did not know why she was nervous, but she needed to do something. She felt like if she stayed in the house on such an important day, she might end up losing her mind.

Although she knew that the probability of being thrown out was very high, she had nothing to lose.

“We are here.” the driver said in a cold voice.

Ava did not mind his attitude. She had long gotten used to their disdain. There were only two people who were kind to her in the whole Grayson family, and that was the old man and the butler.

Ava took her well-packaged breakfast and headed to the lift. Her heart was thumping hard and she did not even know why she was nervous.

She reached the top floor but before she entered, the secretary stopped her. She looked at her up and down before she sneered in disdain.

Although she knew who Ava was, she still pretended to not know her.

She asked in a sarcastic voice, “Who are you?”

“I am here to bring breakfast to my husband.”

“I am sorry, I don’t know who you are and besides, my boss is not married.” The secretary said.

“Just call him and tell him that Ava is here, I am sure that he will let me in,” Ava said politely.

“I am sorry but my boss is kind of busy right now. I don’t want to disrupt his time with his girlfriend.”

“What did you just say?” Ava was shocked.

Although she knew that Jason had lots of women he was fooling around with, she never imagined that he would have the audacity to bring them to his office.

Ava felt her heart break and her eyes teared up. She knew that she should not care, but her heart could not just listen.

She looked at the secretary and stubbornly said, “Today is our wedding anniversary and I just want to bring my husband breakfast. I will leave the moment I drop this off.”

The secretary sneered. She was about to say something but she changed her mind in the end.

“Sure, don’t say that I did not warn you.”

Ava walked to the door and hesitated whether she should enter or not. Jason was probably busy with his girlfriend and if she just barged in, she might make him angry.

It was only for a split second before she knocked on the door and pushed it open.

Ava expected Jason to lash out at her the moment he saw her, but what greeted her eyes made her frozen in place, her face turning pale.

chapter 2
Chapter 2 In the huge office, Jason was sitting on his desk, with a beautiful lady in his arms. His long arms were wrapped around her slim waist and she was wearing a dress that almost looked similar to what Ava was wearing. On the leather sofa, Jason’s sister, Beth, and his mother, Cecile, were seated. There were also two other men in the room with black suits. Ava was not familiar with them, but they seemed to be working on something for Jason. When the door opened from outside, everyone turned their heads to look. When the people in the room saw the person who had entered, they were momentarily shocked and their faces revealed different expressions. But that happened only for a split second before they retained their composure. Jason, his mother, and his sister sneered when they saw the intruder. The only person who had an intriguing expression was the woman in Jason’s arms. When she saw the dress Ava was wearing, her eyes flashed with a strange light and no one knew what she

chapter 3
Chapter 3 She knew that the mother and daughter pair were not fond of her. They have done a lot of bad things to her behind closed doors, but in front of people, especially her father, they had always been polite to her. Although her father did not like her, and he was even cold towards her, she once heard him telling the pair to never mistreat her. But deliberately causing an accident that she did not remember and taking away her memories, that was new. Ava put a hand on her mouth to prevent herself from crying out loud. She made a mistake coming to this place and all she wanted to do now was leave. She turned around hastily but before she could make it to the door, a maid’s surprised voice echoed through the house. “You, who are you and what are you doing here? Who let you in? Are you a thief?” The maid had probably joined the family after Ava was married since she did not seem to know who she was. Ava was walking hurriedly towards the door. But after being questioned by the

chapter 4
Chapter 4 Ava hastily lifted the blankets and hurried to the mirror. When she saw the familiar face in the mirror, she was even more confused. She touched her face, trying to see if anything strange had happened to it, but she found that her face was intact. The only thing that had changed was probably the light in her eyes. Every time she looked at herself in this mirror in the past, she would only see a pathetic, self-mocking gaze looking back at her. But now, there seemed to be something different about it. Although she could not put her finger on it, she felt that just with a single gaze from her, she could see through everything. What was more shocking to her was that she felt as if she had already lived this day! Ava looked around the room, trying to find clues to whatever was happening to her, but she realized that everything was exactly the same. There was nothing out of the ordinary in the room! But why did everything feel so different? Was she giving herself too much

chapter 5
Chapter 5 After Ava finished her dinner, she smiled in satisfaction as she looked at Sam and asked, “Uncle, how well do you know the prominent families in the capital?”’ She had heard of the Wyatt family, but she did not know much about the family. She was also not sure if Leo was from the infamous Wyatt or if his surname was just a coincidence. But regardless, of whether he was a young master of the prominent family, or if he was just from a normal family, she had to find him. Sam did not understand why Ava asked that question all of a sudden. In the past three years, the only thing she had been interested in was to win her husband’s heart, but now… “Which family are you asking about?” “The Wyatt family. Could they happen to have a Young Master by the name of Leo?” Ava asked. Sam was shocked when he heard Ava say that name so casually. Ava did not wait for him to answer as his expression had already told her that it was true. Her eyes lit up and her face broke into a sweet smi

chapter 6
Chapter 6 Ava was intimidated by the man’s ruthless gaze. Although the face in her dreams and the one she currently seeing were the same, she felt like they were two different people. The Leo in her dreams before she died was so gentle, and polite. But the one standing before her wore an expressionless face, and the way he looked at her made her heart thump in fear. She had replayed everything that she was going to say to the man when she finally saw him, but the moment her eyes met his oppressive gaze, her mind turned completely blank. Her knees felt weak and she almost knelt in front of this ‘god’. The confidence Ava had since yesterday was shattered in an instant. Her palms were sweating and she could feel a sheer of cold sweat cascading down her forehead. The man locked his gaze on her for some seconds before he looked away. The moment he withdrew his gaze, Ava felt as if she could breathe again. She realized that it was not only her forehead but her whole body was drenched

chapter 7
Chapter 7 When Ava arrived home, her heart was still beating hard. Her body was covered in a cold sweat and she could not believe what had just happened. Maybe she could have done more research about Leo. But that was impossible because there was so little information available about him. Ava patted her chest and after taking a deep breath, she got out of the car and headed to the house. When she reached the door, she was stunned to see a pair of unfamiliar black leather shoes. She was about to find Sam and ask him what was going on when she heard a familiar voice coming from the sitting room. ‘What was Jason doing at home at this time? Had he brought back another one of his mistresses to torment her?’ Ava thought in her mind. Whatever the reason he had for coming back, it had nothing to do with her. Jason was sitting in the living room with his mother and sister. When they saw Ava enter the house, their faces revealed fierce expressions. Remembering how rude she had been to them

chapter 8
Chapter 8 Ava did not answer him. She directly passed him and headed to the bedroom. Jason’s eyes turned icy cold. He stared at her back and sneered coldly. This was the second time he was being ignored by this lowly woman and he was already reaching his limit. Just what in the world was wrong with her? Before Ava’s hand reached out to open the door, Jason shouted, “Ava, I am talking to you. Were you speaking to another man right now?” Ava’s hand paused and her back stiffened. Jason was even more angry when he saw her actions. So, he was right. This good-for-nothing woman actually had the audacity to speak to another man behind his back, and in his house. Given how gentle and sweet she was sounding just now, their relationship must be extraordinary. He knows that Ava rarely leaves the house and she does not have many friends. In fact, she has no friends at all, especially the male ones. She had just gone out for one day and she was already cheating on him? Jason laughed angri

chapter 9
Chapter 9 Leo looked at his assistant and ordered coldly, “I want everything about the Grayson family, to the tiniest detail as soon as possible.” Dan seemed to have anticipated as much so he nodded his head without hesitation. Just like his boss, he had thought that Ava was sent by an enemy to get rid of the big boss, but after everything he uncovered yesterday, adding to today’s incident, it was evident that Ava was innocent. As for why she specifically approached Leo, they did not know why. Maybe only she knew and it would be a matter of time before his boss knew too. Ava did not come to her senses for a long time even after the man had left. She could still feel his presence in the ward as his unique scent was all over. Ava let her mind wander until the nurse came in to change her dressing. “Nurse, when can I be discharged?” Ava asked. She did not know the kind of hospital she was in and she was not sure if she could afford the medical bill. She did not have so much money s

chapter 10
Chapter 10 After talking to Leo, Ava fell into a deep slumber, and by the time she opened her eyes again, the world had already darkened outside. The moment he heard some movements from the bed, Leo turned off his laptop and walked towards the bed. He asked in his husky voice, “You are awake?” Ava’s mind was still muddled from the sleep and when she heard the question, she subconsciously nodded. “Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Ava finally came back to her senses when she heard the familiar voice. She remembered someone telling her over the phone that they would come to see her in the evening. So, he had really kept his promise. Ava’s tears suddenly fell. When Leo saw her cry, he was shocked. Thinking that she was in so much pain, he immediately ordered the doctor to be brought over. The doctor arrived within seconds and the moment Leo saw her, he looked at her coldly and asked in a voice that bore no emotions, “Didn’t I ask you to take care of her well? Why
