10 Chapters

Chapter 1

After I proposed to Kathy Johnson, my girlfriend of seven years, we went to City Hall to get our marriage license.Instead, she had her bodyguards throw me onto the street.Then, she walked through the doors, hand in hand with her childhood friend, Nate.She didn’t even blink when he saw me sitting there on the ground, shaking with disbelief."Nate's son needs a legal guardian to secure his inheritance from the Johnson Group. The fastest way is for me to marry Nate and adopt the boy.""As soon as the paperwork is finalized, we'll get a divorce. You'll still be the one I really marry."Everyone assumed that I, the man who had been devoted to her for so long, would foolishly wait. After all, I had already waited for seven long years.But that night, I accepted the arranged business marriage my family had prepared for me and took a flight to Center City on the East Coast.I vanished from Kathy's world completely, and no one saw it coming.Five years later, I returned to Westlake City to v

I took a deep breath, pushing the irrelevant thoughts from my mind. Arguing with these fools was a waste of breath.I lifted my head, looked Kathy straight in the eye, and said calmly, "Well, you're here to pick me up, right? Let's go."The air grew tense, and the hall fell silent. The group exchanged bewildered glances before erupting into even more exaggerated laughter.Nate let out a scornful laugh, as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world. "Pick you up? Are you still dreaming?"He pointed at the sign. "Open your damn eyes. We're here for a VIP from the Weyland Group. You've probably never even heard of them."My wife was the sole daughter of the Weyland Group. How could I not know who they were waiting for?"We are waiting for Ms. Weyland's husband! The queen of finance, known for her iron fist and ruthless tactics, who just happens to dote on her husband to an unbelievable degree. Everyone in our circle knows she was single for years, saving herself for the man who i

Ignoring a furious Kathy, I turned and started to leave.I had only taken a few steps when she rushed up and grabbed my arm, her voice low. "Simon, you won't even take my money? What's that supposed to mean? Are you trying to burn this bridge for good?"I looked at her. "Since we broke up a long time ago, we should keep our distance. I don't want my wife to get the wrong idea."An image of my fiercely protective wife flashed through my mind. Rhea would never tolerate another woman getting this close.But Kathy clearly misunderstood. She glanced smugly at Nate, who was standing nearby, thinking she had seen through my game of playing hard to get."In three days, our group's CEO is hosting a top-tier welcome banquet for the representative from the Weyland Group. I was originally planning to take you and show you what a real high-society circle looks like. But on one condition, you have to get rid of that shabby outfit. I can't be seen with you looking like that."Before she could finish,

"That watch… doesn't it look a bit like the 'Heart of Eternity' that President Weyland bought for a fortune at auction?""This is supposed to be her husband's first public appearance. How dare this guy parade around with a fake? Is he trying to sabotage the event?""Kathy, is this guy with you?" a nearby executive asked, frowning.Seeing that I hadn't so much as glanced her way, Kathy adjusted her collar and quickly distanced herself from me. "I don't know him."Hearing this, Nate looked at me triumphantly, as if an idea had just struck him. "You hear that? Now take off that piece of junk and get out of here!"I stood my ground, coldly watching him jump around like a clown. "Are you sure you want me to leave?"The more composed I appeared, the more his jealousy flared. In his mind, I should have been on my knees by now, sobbing and begging for mercy.His usually refined face contorted as he pointed at me and yelled, "Stop acting so high and mighty! Take off the watch! Security, get thi

Among this gathering of elites, the impenetrable ice around Rhea, known for her cold and decisive nature, melted the instant she saw me.A rare, incredibly gentle smile crept onto her stunning, cool face.William toddled over on his short legs and threw himself into my arms.But when he saw the cake frosting on my clothes and the blood on my hand, his face went pale. "Daddy! Your hand is bleeding! Who hurt you?!"The moment he yelled "Daddy," the hall fell silent. Everyone turned to look, their faces filled with shock.The same high-society executives who had been sneering at me and looking at me like trash just moments ago were now staring with wide, horrified eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.This child had inherited Rhea's sharp intuition and could always sense when something was wrong with me. His open concern instantly dispelled the gloom that had settled in my chest.I wrapped my arms around his small, soft body and kissed his cheek, gently coaxing him. "Daddy's okay. It's just

Chapter 6

The group of people who had just been fawning over Kathy and showering me with insults heard my words and broke out in a cold sweat, their faces turning ashen.They never dreamed that the man they had mocked and trampled on was the legendary husband doted on by the Weyland heiress.In that moment, fear and regret flooded their minds.But I had been wearing the famous "Heart of Eternity" watch, making my identity clear from the start. They had been blinded by their own arrogance, stupid beyond saving.I watched with cold eyes as they shrank back, trying to hide themselves in the crowd as if they could just slip away unnoticed.Just then, Nate's clueless sycophant, Luke White, suddenly shouted, "Simon, where did you find these two actors? They're actually pretty good-looking. Should I have Nate get them a recommendation to break into the entertainment industry?""You're so broke you can't afford a single nice thing. Did you spend your last dime hiring actors to put on a show?""Come on,

Meeting their gazes, my heart immediately softened. "Alright, stop scaring the doctor. He hasn't even finished bandaging the wound."The doctor visibly relaxed upon hearing my intervention.After carefully performing a series of checks and confirming that the wound was not serious and there was no risk of infection, he reported respectfully, "Ms. Weyland, the gentleman has only sustained a superficial injury. There is no damage to the bone. Everything is fine.""I will apply the best ointment to his hand. There will be absolutely no scarring."Rhea's tense nerves finally eased a bit, and she nodded slightly. But I could feel her struggling to control her rage.As the oppressive atmosphere in the room grew heavier, the architect of it all, Kathy, swallowed hard.She could never have imagined that the man she once treated with contempt had transformed into someone she could never hope to reach in her lifetime.Watching the natural intimacy between Rhea and me, a wave of intense unwilling

Chapter 8

Kathy never dreamed that I would humiliate her so thoroughly in front of everyone.She looked at our happy family, her eyes burning with a jealousy so intense it was maddening.Just as she lost her senses and was about to charge towards me, little William, like a brave little knight, spread his arms to block my path and glared at her fiercely. "Get away! Don't you dare look at my daddy with your dirty eyes!""Who do you think you are, telling my daddy to be your bodyguard? My daddy is the king at home. Even my mommy has to listen to him!""I know who you are. You're the woman who broke his heart. And you have a son that isn't his. My daddy only has me and my unborn brother or sister. Your child has no right to be a part of his family.""Someone like you isn't even worthy of carrying my mommy's briefcase. You're not as pretty as her, not as rich as her, and you're definitely not as good to my daddy as she is."Little William shot Kathy a look of utter disgust, scanning her from head to

Chapter 9

I knew Rhea's methods all too well. Nate had crossed a line she would never forgive, and he would spend the rest of his life in prison.To outsiders, Rhea was a cold-blooded queen who would do anything to achieve her goals, but I knew better than anyone that everything she did was for me.She would never allow anyone to harm me or William. I had been seriously injured this time, and I could only imagine how much she was blaming herself.Aaron might have described them as demons from hell, but I wasn't scared. I felt safe.Kathy and her cronies had brought their downfall upon themselves.I had given them a chance to walk away with dignity, but they insisted on taking the path to ruin.However, after hearing Aaron's description, a faint worry still lingered in my heart.William was only five years old. I was a little afraid that growing up under Rhea's extreme, elite-focused education might have a negative impact on his mental health.I was about to discuss child-rearing with Aaron when

Chapter 10

Kathy's once-pretty face was now haggard and drawn.I stared at her warily. "How did you find this place? What do you want?"To have evaded the worldwide net Rhea had cast and bypassed the tight security of this top private hospital to get to my room, she had to be desperate.The image of Nate lunging at us with a fork flashed through my mind. I instantly went on guard, my muscles tensing.Kathy seemed to sense my defensiveness and took an eager step forward. "Simon, don't be afraid. I would never hurt you. I just…"I took a step back and cut her off sharply. "Get to the point.""Simon, the truth is... you're the one I've always loved. These past five years, thinking of you with another woman... it felt like my heart was being torn out!""I know you have feelings for me too. Come with me! Let's leave this place, leave the West Coast, and go somewhere no one knows us and start over, okay?"Though Kathy looked disheveled, like a fugitive who'd been hiding in the sewers for two weeks, I c
