News of my groom's death arrived, but I shed no tears. Instead, I quickly reclaimed his shares and had his death officially recorded. Why? I was reborn. In my previous life, my family had adopted three boys to accompany me since childhood, all of whom were potential candidates to be my husband. As the heiress of the wealthiest family in the country, my father feared I wouldn't be happy marrying someone else we weren't familiar with. I chose Jayden, the most capable of the three brothers—but just three days after the wedding, he passed away. In my grief, I gave up on remarriage. With Jesse and Joel's persuasion, I lived the rest of my life as a widow. Upon reaching eighty, I went to Massalia, where we once pledged our love. There, I encountered Jayden…who had supposedly died sixty years ago! He was living with my maid, who had gone missing decades ago, surrounded by children and grandchildren, living a happy and contented life. When I realized I had been deceived my whole life, I was so enraged that my vision suddenly darkened. I died of a brain hemorrhage on the spot. When I awoke, I had returned to the day the news of his death had arrived. Let's see how a man who should have died intended to continue living!
View MoreWhen Nellie saw that flattering Shanan and badmouthing me didn't work, she decided to drop the act. "It was all a misunderstanding. I was in shock and didn't know what I was saying. Lauren wasn't hurt, right? What right do you have to freeze Jayden's cards? If you ask me, you did it on purpose! You're so nasty!" she spat. I let out a soft chuckle and stepped out of the car. "Nasty? How can I compare to someone like you, who stole someone else's credit and kept on lying for over a decade?" As I spoke, I pulled out a thick pile of documents and tossed them right into Jayden's face. He skimmed the pages, and the rage on his face froze as his whole body began to tremble. "Lauren, it really was you…" Nellie quickly went over. The moment her eyes met the document, she froze in place. "No, no… Jayden, I was the one who saved your grandma! I swear!" Nellie clung to Jayden's arm and tugged him, but Jayden simply shoved her away. She fell hard onto the curb, and blood began to pou
Fortunately, Shanan hadn't lost much blood. He was knocked unconscious only briefly, and immediately stopped the commotion.Shanan was worried about my condition, so he took care of me together with the rest of the hospital staff. In that brief moment, Jayden and the others had vanished. Not knowing what I was truly thinking, Shanan didn't act rashly. He had been waiting for me to wake up. After taking all the information in and thinking it through, I asked about Nellie's condition. She was completely fine, with only a minor scrape on her arm. She had already completed her paperwork and was discharged, and had left the hospital with Jayden and the others. I lowered my eyes and scoffed. I had already frozen Jayden, Jesse, and Joel's credit cards. All the privileges they had from the Hanson family had also been revoked. They were used to living a life of luxury—they would never leave. If I was correct, the three of them were probably hiding at the villa I had bought for them.
"Nel told me everything in detail. She knew what my grandma was wearing that day, and the cost of the hospital bills. Do you know why she remembered it so clearly? The numbers matched the amount you spent on lunch that day—500 dollars! "I know you're used to living a life of arrogance. You look down on us poor people. You forced me to marry into the Hanson family, turning me into a live-in son-in-law and a laughingstock. You don't understand anything!" Jayden lunged at me like a madman and pinned me down. "Lauren, I gave up all my dignity so I could stay in the Hanson household—but Nel is my bottom line. I won't allow anything to happen to her! Even if God himself shows up today, you're donating your skin to her for her graft!" He clamped his hand over my nose and mouth, his eyes full of hate. He was trying to suffocate me! I bit his hand hard, and he let go from the pain. Unfortunately, I was still wrapped in casts. I couldn't even escape! He let out an icy chuckle and t
Shanan left the country after that, heartbroken. Yet, the moment he heard Jayden had passed away, he immediately moved his company back into the country and began pursuing me passionately. Thanks to Jesse and Joel's continuous manipulation, I had built a bastion around my heart. No matter how hard Shanan tried, I refused to remarry. Despite that, Shanan stayed by my side without any title and supported my career with everything he had. I could confidently say that it was mostly thanks to him that I remained the richest woman in the country. And me? I simply treated him as an opportunist. I never even took him seriously! There was pain in my heart as I looked at Shanan with guilt in my eyes. "I was supposed to pick you up… I wasn't expecting you to come find me again…" The moment I spoke, tears started to roll down my cheeks uncontrollably. Shanan's clear eyes were full of pain as well, and he sighed softly. "No need to cry. I found you, didn't I?" The words just esc
The moment they saw what happened, Jayden and the other two immediately rushed over to stop the newcomer from entering. "Do you know that this is Miss Lauren Hanson's VIP ward? She's the heiress of the Hanson family! Do you have a death wish for barging in like this?" My mind was in a haze, but I still tried to cry out for help in desperation. The newcomer, a man, ignored all three of them and rushed straight to my side. "Lauren, what happened to you?!" Jayden's eyes narrowed when he realized the man knew me, and he immediately tried to intervene. "You must be an employee working for the Hansons, right? My wife is injured and unconscious. I'm in charge of everything regarding the company now." After hearing that, the man stood up straight and glared furiously at all three of them. "So, you're the orphans Lauren took in for fun? And you even rose from the dead… What a miracle. There's no place for you here! Get out!" And then, he pressed the emergency button. Jayden, Jes
"Drive me to the airport right now. This is an order!"Jayden's eyes were practically burning in rage, but Nellie tugged his sleeve at this time and subtly shook her head. After a moment of silence, Jayden bent over and opened the door into the passenger seat. Nellie didn't hesitate to sit inside. "I'm sorry, Miss Hanson. Jayden had just come to. As the person who saved him, I'm worried about his condition. Someone of your status won't mind, right?" Jayden didn't even spare me a glance as he leaned in to fasten Nellie's seatbelt. Then, he opened the driver's door on his own. "If you're coming, get in." Nellie's lips curled slightly at Jayden's icy tone toward me. I simply scoffed and got into the back seat. These two were trying to assert their dominance, but what they didn't know was that I was on my way to welcome my new husband from abroad. At the thought of Shanan, I let out a long sigh. In my past life, I vowed to remain a widow for Jayden. Shanan stayed single unti
