Turning to God for His First Love

Ever since Evan Moore renounced his worldly pursuits in order to pray for me, I would visit him at the monastery once every month.However, he wasn't in the meditation chamber today.As I waited for Evan inside, a breeze blew open his handwritten scripture. I was surprised when I casually skimmed through the words on the pages.He had always been protective of this handwritten scripture. Every time I asked to see it, he insisted I fast and pray for a week first. However, it was impossible for me to meet such strict demands when I still had to take care of our son.I understood Evan's good intentions, so I never pushed it. But now, as the breeze turned the pages, I finally realized that the rows of inked words weren't scriptures at all.My hands trembled as I picked up the booklet and flipped through its pages.With a tenderness that spoke of deep affection, Evan had written down every detail of his love for a woman named Jade Spencer.From preparing hand warmers in the winter,

The household staff started gossiping after Hannah left."Mrs. Moore is really ungrateful. She's lucky enough to marry into the Moore family—she didn't have to do anything but enjoy her life, yet she's still causing so much trouble.""She can't be compared to Ms. Spencer. After all, Ms. Spencer has her own career and doesn't need to depend on anyone.""She's just there to look good anyway."I finally understood why the household staff had always looked at me that way. I felt a lump of bitterness in my throat.Evan was the one who said that there was no one to take care of the household. That was why I gave up on my career to manage the household matters.Even if I hadn't married into the Moore family, I would've been able to enjoy my life the same way. But now, everything had been twisted to seem like I was being ungrateful.I didn't want to explain myself to them. Instead, I fired all of the gossiping household staff.…Jadon came back at night. He was calling for Evan as soo

Tears welled up in my eyes as I stared hard at the IV drip above me.I hadn't cried in years, but somehow, those words got to me.I said, "Evan and I are in a marriage of convenience, Hendery. It involves both the Warner and the Moore families. It's not something I can—"It wasn't something I could decide on my own. It was just like how, when I tried to break free in the past, they ended up bringing me back and forcing me to put on a wedding dress.After a moment of silence, Hendery seemed to have come to a resolution. "We could also have a marriage of convenience, Cynthia."Taken aback, I stared at him for a moment before hastily averting my gaze. "Well, Hendery, is there a possibility for two individuals who aren't allergic to cherries to have a baby who's allergic to cherries?""There's a possibility for that to happen." Sensing my hesitation, Hendery quietly let the topic drop.He didn't bring it up again all the way home. It was as if those words were nothing more than some

Jadon had just woken up in the villa. He rubbed his eyes blearily as he looked at me. "Where did you go, Mommy?"I crouched down and looked at the child, whom I had cared for for the past five years—I just couldn't bear leaving him. "Sweetheart, if I ended up getting divorced from Daddy, would you want to come with me?"Jadon replied without hesitation, "I'll follow Daddy!""But I was the one who has been taking care of you all these years." Refusing to give up, I asked again."Aunt Jade can take care of me too. Besides, she's prettier and more gentle than you—I don't want Mommy!" Jadon's innocent words were like sharp knives, cutting deep into my heart and leaving it to bleed openly.This was the child I sacrificed five years to take care of—and he personally told me he didn't want me anymore.I stood up, no longer looking at him with warmth. "Alright then, I'll let you have your way."I couldn't help but cry out once I left the villa. Hendery said nothing as he handed me a tis

After the divorce, many of the Moore family's business partners, having fulfilled the last round of collaboration with the Moores, started to approach us. They requested to collaborate exclusively with us.The Warners' family business began to thrive thanks to these long-term partners. Meanwhile, the Moores' family business started to decline without my supervision.After being ridiculed by everyone, Evan retreated to the monastery with Jade and tried to keep a low profile. He even attempted to rebuild his stoic persona as the city's pious scion, but with the insiders exposing him, he quickly became a laughingstock across the internet.Even the most capable employees of Moore Corporation started jumping ship one after another.Hannah had no choice but to step in herself, but she lacked the ability to turn things around and ended up dying from exhaustion.With her funeral, Moore Corporation officially went under.Now that the Moores were drowning in debt, Evan even tried his luck
