Chapter 1: Reborn in the Private Jet

Sam's POV The cabin of the private jet hummed gently with a rhythmic vibration that was accompanied by the sounds of cheerful but slightly tipsy chatter from the wedding party in the front lounge. The polished and reassuring voice of Mrs. Xavier, the high-end wedding consultant kept ringing in my ears. After I had gently lifted the edge of my embroidered silk veil, I shook as I saw the white leather interior and the champagne flutes. Finally, I confirmed it. I was indeed in a luxurious private jet that was flying to a private island where my wedding reception would be held.I subtly raised my hands and observed them. My skin was covered with manicured yet flawless. My nails were perfectly shaped and my slender fingers long and firm.These were the hands I once had before I lost myself and finally lost my life.I had been reborn.My initial panic had subsided. At this moment, I had completely calmed down and accepted the fact.Thinking about it, now that I was reborn, would I have

Chapter 3: The Bride he didn't Choose

Sam's POVWith a soft whoosh, the thick soundproof door was gently pushed open. Mrs. Xavier’s professional and upbeat chatter about "starting a new life" flowed into the room like a stream. Behind her were the groom, Ethan Sterling, and a pair of white-gloved personal attendants."Alright, everyone can step out now," Ethan suddenly interrupted Mrs. Xavier and her smooth, auspicious monologue was brought to an end.I remained motionless and my gaze flickered beneath the expensive lace veil. Ethan's voice was still as clear and commanding as ever but it seemed clipped and noticeably faint. I could picture the strained expression on his face as he spoke. He looked polished and emotionally distant."Yes, Mr. Sterling..." Despite being a famous high-society wedding planner in the Hamptons and Silicon Valley that was accustomed to navigating complicated elite marriages, Mrs. Xavier was well aware of Ethan Sterling's unconventional relationship with his lifelong friend and business partner,

Chapter 4 The One-Year Contract

Sam's POVI lowered my head slightly to reveal my slender neck against the silk collar. My eyelashes trembled lightly as I looked up again. "Mr. Sterling, thanks for honoring the merger agreement to preserve the reputation of both the Wade Trust and myself. I am very grateful for that but since you have someone else in your life, I shouldn't be the one to take away the one you love. How about the two of us being just a Contractual Couple? Would you like to do that?"Ethan was obviously moved. He involuntarily took a deep breath and his gaze kept flickering. He was no longer composed as before. “A Contractual Couple?” he asked as if he was surprised that I could suggest such a thing!Seeing that he didn't say anything after that, I continued listing out the terms, "After one year, we can cite irreconcilable differences and quietly file for divorce. By that time, we will both marry who we want as our families would have finalized the business arrangement without any long-term complicat

Chapter 5: The Boardroom Brunch

Sam's POV The next morning, Ethan woke me up.It was not entirely my fault. After I got married into the Sterling family in my past life, I was immediately isolated and neglected. My mother-in-law detested me. Why would I need my formal attendance or services? I also had little sense of routine! My days were spent idly eating and trying to learn the stock market. When I wasn't doing either, I would be sulking and no one cared."Hmm?" I rubbed my sleepy eyes and looked at Ethan with confusion. The warmth from the Egyptian sheets imbued my pale cheeks with a flush of pink. Ethan was also enveloped by a subtle and faint alluring scent."Get up quickly! The household staff and security will be coming in soon." He was almost exasperated as he gazed at me with discontentment. But I still noticed that my innocent state made him soften slightly.I jumped up in a startle and picked up the white ceremonial sheet that I had casually thrown to one side.I said awkwardly, "This? How should we
