Todos os capítulos de Rebirth: I Settle Her Regrets, Then Become the Biggest One: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 8

In my previous life, I'd given up everything I had—everything my family had—just so I could marry Maggie Sinise.Together, we took the nearly bankrupt Sinise Group and built it into one of the top listed companies in the country.In everyone's eyes, Maggie and I were the perfect couple. There were never any scandals about us in the news. In fact, we never even argued.We spent our entire lives at each other's side, devoted to each other.On her deathbed, I naively believed that the person she would find hardest to let go of would be me. But as I watched her face briefly regain color in her final moments, I saw her eyes drift into memory. Her frail hand desperately pulled out a photo of Scotty Pipes that had been tucked against her chest.Those clouded eyes softened with unmistakable tenderness as she looked at the young Scotty in the picture.I sat rigidly at the head of the bed."Aaron," she started. "If there's a next life, please allow Scotty the chance to marry me. Let me ha

The next day, I spent the entire morning in the office dealing with contracts.Julian brought over the investigation report from the hospital that I had requested the day before. The results showed that Scotty's allergens were completely different from any ingredients found in the liquor. His reaction was clearly caused by accidentally ingesting peanuts.After reading the report, I had my answer.I thought back to Scotty's strange behavior yesterday. I no longer cared whether he had truly eaten peanuts by accident or not.Since the liquor I gave him wasn't the problem, from this point on, the two of them would have nothing to do with me.But just as I was trying my best to cut off all ties with Maggie, it wasn't long before she came looking for me.I knew why she was here. According to the timeline, Sinise Group would be on the verge of bankruptcy at this point. The company was facing cash flow issues, suppliers were pressing for payment, employee salaries needed to be paid, and

"What makes you so sure I wouldn't know? You just want to jump on board with the Ramseys. Sorry, but the Tilmans need it too," I stated.Maggie instantly froze. A flicker of panic crossed her eyes, her face went deathly pale, and her voice trembled uncontrollably."You… How did you know? Don't tell me you came back as well, Aaron!"I calmly avoided her question. That was when I realized that Maggie had never suspected that I had been reborn as well.I had accidentally exposed a flaw this time, but I had no intention of admitting anything. A cold smile appeared on my face as I looked at her mockingly."Is it really that hard to find out? The Tilman Group is powerful—it's perfectly normal for us to have access to some insider information. You're not the only one who can find out about these things, Maggie."Although I offered an explanation, suspicion still lingered in her eyes. She knew me well, so she naturally didn't believe my words.After all, I had never known about this mat

Even with Maggie stirring things up, it didn't ruin the mood between Maryanne and me during dinner.I didn't spare Maggie a glance the entire time. When we'd finished almost everything on the table, I finally patted my stomach in satisfaction and got up to leave. I turned down Maryanne's offer to drive me home. Instead, I decided to take a stroll back. I'd eaten too much earlier, so the walk would help with my digestion.Unexpectedly, she offered to walk with me.On the way, we passed a street packed with food stalls. My stomach was full, but my eyes—and mouth—weren't. I swallowed unconsciously, and she noticed it.She pulled me over, and at my suggestion, we stopped at a few stalls and bought some food here and there. I tried hard to control myself, but I still ended up buying way too much.In the end, I could only manage a few bites of each item. She didn't mind at all. She even took a bite out of the half-eaten taco.I could feel my face heat up instantly. I stammered, "M-
