The night Gloria Leach—my husband's ex—died in the rain, he floored it and drove us off a cliff. That's when it clicked. Evan Patterson had always hated me for getting between him and Gloria. Then I woke up, I was back on the wedding day. This time, he didn't even pause. Ditched the rings. Ran straight to her outside the church. I didn't cry. Didn't make a scene. I just called it off. While they turned their reunion into a show, I said yes to someone else. In this life, Evan and I were strangers. Until eight years later. An auction. I placed a no-cap bid on the final item—sapphire cufflinks. Won. I was leaving when Evan stepped in front of me, scowling. "Robyn, stop embarrassing yourself. Even if you bought every cufflink on earth for me, I still wouldn't love you. Gloria's the only one in my heart." I didn't even look at him. Just reached for the little girl beside me. "Sweetheart, say hi to the gentleman." He saw her face—mine, copied clean. His eyes went red, and his grip snapped around my wrist. "She's our daughter?"

"Robyn, let's get back together!"That actually stunned me.Evan's shamelessness officially broke new ground.I stepped back, frowning. "Did you scramble your brain when you dragged us off that cliff? Or did you forget what you said that day?"Pain flickered across his face. He dropped his voice. "I'm sorry, Robyn. I was wrong. I thought I loved Gloria, but once I was actually with her, I realized I didn't. If I had, we'd be married by now."You might not believe this, but I waited. Eight years. Waiting for you to come back. If you had, I would've dropped everything."So let's start over. This time, I'll give you everything. I won't let you get hurt again."I couldn't hold it in— I slapped him."Evan, don't disgust me. Not just me—even our unborn child would never give you a second chance."I looked straight at him. "Let me be clear one last time. The moment you dragged me and our baby to die with you, I stopped loving you. The only man I love now is my husband."So do us bot

They never laid a hand on me. But they just stood there and watched.The auction manager who'd threatened to throw me out was shaking, barely breathing.Adrian's gaze passed him and landed on me. His voice softened. "Babe, it's late. Mia's probably hungry. Let's go home."Evan ignored Gloria tugging at him and followed after me. Like he had more to say—until Adrian shot him a look. He stopped cold.Back home, after dinner and putting Mia to bed, Adrian pinned me to the mattress."Babe," he said, annoyed, "I look away for one second and you run into your ex-fiancé? Totally killed my mood. Maybe I should just lock you up at home."I sighed, half amused. "You're so jealous, Mia can probably smell it from her room. Running into Evan was a total coincidence. I was only there for the sapphire cufflinks—I thought they'd look good on you."Adrian softened, but still grumbled. "Don't think you're off the hook. If you ever meet Evan behind my back, don't expect to walk the next day.""Re

I didn't stop. "My husband's a thousand times better than you. I'm not blind. Why would I want you when I have him?"Evan's face went dark. He opened his mouth—Gloria snapped first. "Evan, I'm your fiancée now. Let's go home."He didn't move.She felt the stares. Her face burned red.Nowhere to dump it, she shot me a glare—pure resentment. No filter.Then Adrian cut in, ice-cold. "Mr. Patterson, Robyn is my wife. There's no undo button for regret. Or are you really trying to steal her in front of me?"Evan went pale. He rushed to explain. "Mr. Ainsworth, no—this isn't that. You've misunderstood. I just... I just—"I cut him off. "Whatever we had is over. We both have families now. We shouldn't cross paths again."***My decisiveness froze Evan.Maybe in his head, I was still that girl—pathetic, obsessed, waiting on him.He stared, eyes red. "Did you really forget us? You loved me. Are you still mad at me?"Adrian's expression iced over. He laughed—short, sharp. "Are you d
