LOGIN[Third-Person POV]Another five years passed, and Jordan turned 40. He suddenly fainted during a business negotiation, and after a medical examination, he was diagnosed with late-stage bone cancer.After looking at the medical report and then at Jordan, whose hair was graying and whose eyes were lifeless, the doctor sighed, thinking that this might just be fate.Jordan remained calm. There was even a flicker of relief in his eyes. "I know I'm beyond saving. I have the same illness my wife and father-in-law had."The doctor nodded.Jordan smiled, and for once, there was genuine warmth in it. "That's good. I can finally understand how much pain she was in."Jordan refused aggressive treatment and chose only palliative care. He handed over the company's affairs to others, put most of his remaining assets into the charity foundation to help more bone cancer patients, and let his own illness run its course.Because to him, death wasn't an ending. It was a reunion.After returning ho
[Third-Person POV]Camille was arrested and sent to prison. She tried to flee to avoid facing what she had done, but she was no match for Jordan and was brought back within days. Because of her attempted escape, she received an extra two years on her sentence.It wasn't until the handcuffs locked around her wrists that she truly realized her good days were over. What waited ahead of her was endless misery.…Five years later, Jordan turned 35. He had grown even more ruthless in the business world, and he had already cut ties with his parents long ago.He stayed in the same house where he and Olivia had shared their brief marriage, keeping the layout and furnishings exactly as they were. The book she hadn't finished reading still lay open in its original spot on the couch.He remained unmarried for the rest of his life, never becoming involved with another woman, and he never fooled around with anyone again.Everyone in his social circle knew that there was a woman he had never g
[Third-Person POV]Jordan woke up in the hospital with the IV needle still stuck in the back of his hand. The moment his memory came back, he shot upright and ripped the needle out.His eyes were bloodshot as he screamed, "Where is she? Where is Olivia?"His special assistant, Dominic Reed, and his lawyer, Leonard Hayes, walked in, both wearing grave expressions.Dominic said in a low voice, "Mrs. Parker's body is in the hospital morgue. The police have ruled it a suicide. A family member needs to sign to claim the body."Jordan struggled to get out of bed. "I'm her husband! I'll sign it! I want to bring her home!"Leonard held out a document envelope. "Mr. Parker, there are some things you need to know first."Inside the envelope was the information Jordan had asked Adrian to investigate before leaving.Jordan opened it with trembling hands. It contained investigation reports, photographs, bank statements, copies of medical records, and more. Everything was written in black an
[Third-Person POV]Jordan stared at the message Olivia had sent him. "I've been diagnosed with bone cancer, just like my dad."His ears rang, and the details of that day suddenly came rushing back to him.At the time, he had been at Camille's place. Camille had taken his phone, smiled, and asked, "Is Olivia asking you for money again? I'll send her some money for you."And that was it. He hadn't even bothered to read what Olivia had said.He wondered if she really did have bone cancer, but Camille had supposedly already investigated everything. Besides, his parents had always told him that Olivia was a con artist who preyed on wealthy men.He hadn't believed them at first, but right after marrying Olivia, her dad was hospitalized and desperately needed a large sum of money for surgery. To him, it felt too much like a coincidence.Jordan felt a splitting headache coming on. He truly didn't know who to believe, but he knew one thing for certain—he couldn't lose Olivia.With tremb
[Olivia's POV]I didn't want to go back to the house Jordan and I shared, so I went to Dad's old house.Just then, my phone buzzed. Jordan sent me his first text message in three years. "Come back and make Camille some soup as an apology."I stared at it for a long time and suddenly wanted to laugh.Then I finally answered Jordan's call. He impatiently asked, "Did you see my message? Camille said she really wants to try your—"I cut him off, my voice soft. "Jordan, if I died, would you be sad?"I finally had the chance to ask the question that had been on my mind for months.Jordan went quiet for a few seconds, then he suddenly raised his voice. "What's gotten into you lately? Who taught you to keep saying such ominous things? Just tell me how much money you want. It's not like I won't give it to you!"Where are you right now? I'm coming over immediately."In the end, he still didn't answer me. But it no longer mattered.I hung up the phone.I lay on the wooden plank bed I u
[Olivia's POV]My face turned even paler.Jordan had never believed that the child I lost due to my poor health had ever existed. When I happily handed him the pregnancy report back then, his eyes held nothing but mockery.On the day I miscarried, I cried as I called him countless times and sent him message after message. But in the end, all I received were money transfers and Camille's words. "Olivia, I'm sorry. Jordan is making me a glass of milk right now."That time, I completely broke down. I smashed up the entire house and tore my marriage certificate with Jordan to pieces. I screamed and cried as I questioned him, "Why won't you answer my messages? Why do you keep sending me money? What exactly do you mean by this?"Jordan smiled and remarked, "Isn't this exactly what you wanted? What, do you think it's not enough?"In agony, I pulled at my hair until a sharp pain shot through my scalp, tears streaming down my face. "If you hate me this much, why did you get me pregnant?
