All Chapters of Reborn Wife Regrets Choosing the Tycoon: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When I followed the address and found the banquet hall, Riley Sawyer stood in the center of the crowd in a crystal-studded wedding gown. She held Benjamin Prescott's arm and smiled as if she had never known sorrow.Our old classmates circled around her in admiration."Riley, that gown must've cost a fortune. One of those stones alone would take me years to pay for.""Please, Mr. Prescott is the richest man's son. This is pocket change for him.""But Riley, you hid this so well. You only announced you were with the Prescott heir after getting engaged?""I swear, I never imagined the future Mrs. Prescott would be my classmate. I can brag about this for the rest of my life."Riley lowered her gaze with a shy smile. "I love Ben for who he is," she said. "It has nothing to do with money. We actually wanted a low-key engagement party."Benjamin drew her into his arms and gently said, "I would never shortchange you."A few people squealed with envy.Someone suddenly asked, "By the wa

In my past life, Riley and I had grown up together. We were inseparable from childhood and fell in love naturally. As soon as we graduated from college, we got married.The Langleys and the Sawyers were both affluent, upper-middle-class families and longtime business partners. Our households were harmonious, our careers flourished, and everyone envied the life we led.However, that happiness didn't last. The Sawyers were reported for tax evasion. Sawyer Group went bankrupt, and Riley's parents were arrested. My family got caught up in it too, and overnight, our world turned upside down.We didn't complain. I worried that Riley wouldn't be able to handle the blow, so I was more attentive than ever. I reminded her that as long as we were alive, there was still hope.Riley's pride was unyielding. To make sure she never had to be embarrassed in front of anyone, I slept only four hours a night, worked three jobs to support her, and bought her every luxury I could. My parents stepped d

Benjamin froze. "Aunt Rosie, are you saying Jared is your secret husband?""That's impossible!" Riley cried in disbelief. "How could the Langleys even compare to the Prescotts…"Rose slapped Riley across the other cheek. "Riley, this isn't your place to speak. I know you and Jared grew up together, and that you almost got married, but now Jared is my husband. "I'm letting this go for Ben's sake. But if you insult Jared again, or call him by his name so disrespectfully, don't blame me for what happens next."Riley's eyes welled up with tears, but she could only bite down her emotions and step silently to the side.Rose crouched beside me and helped me back to my seat. "Darling, we agreed to wait until my meeting was over to fly back together on the private jet. Why did you have to come back early? "The layovers must have exhausted you, and on top of that, you had to deal with these idiots spreading lies!"She clenched her teeth when she said "idiots", as if she might tear the

Riley met Rose's cold, indifferent gaze and couldn't help lowering her head."Ms. Prescott, can I speak with Mr. Langley alone?" she asked.Rose stepped back to give us space, but I held her arm. "Sorry," I said. "There's nothing for us to talk about."Riley refused to give up and grabbed my arm again. "Jared, we're childhood friends. Can't you at least say something for me?"I kept my expression hard and pulled my arm free. "Haven't I done more than enough for you? Riley, we ended things five years ago. Don't go around using 'childhood friends' as an excuse."I placed my arm around Rose's shoulder and opened the passenger-side door for her, carefully closing it behind her. Then I stepped on the gas and drove straight home.We left so fast that I didn't hear what Riley shouted behind us. I only caught sight of her standing there, glaring venomously until we disappeared from view.Rose and I had spent the past five years working abroad, so trips home were rare. Whenever we return

Hope flickered in Riley's eyes. "Thank goodness, Jared. I knew you still cared about me. I knew you wouldn't just leave me like this. Please talk to Benjamin for me. Tell him not to be angry anymore. Ask him to help my parents."You're his aunt's husband. He'll definitely listen to you. The Prescotts are powerful, aren't they? They must have a way to save my mom and dad."I looked at her coldly and said, "Benjamin is getting married."Riley froze. "Married?"I nodded. "Yes. They've just arranged it. It's a strategic match."She shook her head wildly, refusing to believe it. "No. That's impossible. Benjamin is only angry because I upset his aunt. Rose is your wife, isn't she? She listens to you. Please tell her not to hold a grudge against me. Once Benjamin cools off, he won't marry anyone else."She clung to my arm like she had found the only lifeline she had left. Tears streamed down her pale face.If I had been the man I once was, I would have risked everything for her in a he
