The handwriting was Emmett's. She could recognize it. However, Emmett's handwriting was usually beautiful. She had seen it before. It was definitely not this messy and uneven.Calla understood almost instantly. Emmett had done it on purpose.He wanted to use this messy handwriting to create a stark contrast with her neat, perfect writing on the previous pages. He was telling her that she did not need those constraints. She could be herself. She did not need to be perfect, obedient, or well-behaved. She just needed to be happy.Even after all the anger and resentment, even after being betrayed and hurt so badly by Grayson in her past life, she had only shed a single tear before she died.Yet now, seeing this notebook and these messy words, she could no longer suppress the emotions inside her.She crouched on the ground, clutching the notebook and sobbing uncontrollably like a child. It was as if she wanted to cry out every tear she had held back over decades, both in this life and

It was bad enough that Grayson spent all his time at clubs, but he also kept a poor college student as his mistress, giving her money and covering her living expenses. That was not even the worst part. He had the audacity to bring her to provoke Calla in person. Everyone in their social circle felt indignant on Calla's behalf. They even sent marriage proposals to Calla's home, urging her to choose again.At that moment, Emmett was furious, but he still submitted his own proposal. He thought that if Calla still chose that scumbag Grayson, he would have to give up on quietly protecting her.Yet what if she chose him? He knew the chances were slim, but he wanted to try one more time. Miraculously, he actually succeeded in marrying the woman he loved. It filled him with joy.He could finally protect her openly and make sure she never suffered again.Throughout her life, Calla's kindness had helped many people. However, instead of gratitude, what she most often received was further ex

Maeve successfully secured the position of Mrs. Thatcher, but it was nothing as she had imagined. She did not live a life of luxury. Instead, she was drowning in debt.She had been obedient to Grayson before because he was wealthy. Now that she knew he was broke, she showed him no kindness.Seeing these comments, she sneered, "They know so much. That bitch Calla must have leaked everything."As Maeve's true colors emerged, Grayson gradually realized he had trusted the wrong person. His attitude toward Maeve grew increasingly hostile.Hearing her call Calla a bitch so casually now, he slammed his hand on the table in fury."Enough! Don't you know who's the real bitch here?"Grayson watched videos of Calla and Emmett providing disaster relief together. Seeing Calla push forward resolutely through wind and rain, his eyes filled with admiration.It turned out that Calla had this side to her too. He had never noticed. Now, he was filled with regret. It was all Maeve's fault for ruini

Calla looked at Grayson like he was an idiot. "Grayson, have some self-respect. I'm married. So are you."Calla flashed the large diamond ring on her finger, her face full of disdain. During her time with Emmett, she had gradually learned to reclaim herself and stop swallowing her grievances.Now, faced with Grayson's unreasonable demands, she did not endure silently like before. Instead, she shot back directly, paying no mind to Grayson's ego.Being rejected made Grayson's face burn with shame. He continued trying to justify himself, saying, "I know you're not really with him. You two are just in a business arrangement. There are no real feelings between you."But you and I are different. We've been engaged since childhood. We have a deep bond. We'll have a good life together when we're married. He's unreliable."No matter what Grayson said, Calla ignored him and simply had security escort him out.When Emmett learned about this, he immediately hired double the security guards t

Chapter 25

Calla's parents were furious, pointing at her and calling her an ungrateful daughter. As Calla walked away, the burden in her heart gradually lifted. It turned out this was what rebellion felt like. It was so liberating. She could cast everything aside and choose freedom.Only now did Calla finally understand why Grayson had fallen for the wild and carefree Maeve. He had simply been craving the taste of freedom.Now, Calla had reclaimed that freedom for herself. From now on, she would not be controlled by anyone. She would live her life on her own terms.When Calla walked out the door, she saw Emmett leaning against his car, quietly waiting for her. Seeing her approach, he gently embraced her.After getting into the passenger seat, Calla took a deep breath and told Emmett everything that had happened.Emmett smiled. "Exactly. If you're unhappy, flip the table. Why suffer in silence? Being happy is what matters most."She laughed at his words. She did not dwell on those negative e
