Chapter 1

Hearing that, five-year-old Charles Beaumont froze. It was obvious he had not expected me to say something like that.Just then, a familiar voice rang out from the stairway."Why is Charles crying?"I turned around, momentarily stunned.Liam Beaumont, the brilliant genius I had once secretly admired, was walking upstairs in a sharply tailored suit.Ten years really had passed. The youthful softness between his brows was gone, replaced by the calm maturity of a grown man.Charles immediately burst into louder sobs, pounding on the door as he cried."Dad! Mom's gone crazy and hit me! Hurry and save me!"Liam frowned and pulled the door open. "What happened?"The moment the door opened, Charles shot straight into his arms, wailing dramatically."Dad, I hate Mom! I just didn't want her disturbing you and Mandy, but then she got angry and hit me and locked me in the dark room!"Liam looked at me in shock.The eyes that had been so full of tenderness yesterday now held nothing bu

But out of guilt, he kept trying to make it up to Mandy. The two of them grew closer and closer, even his son began to like her more. Meanwhile, the future version of me became quieter by the day, weighed down by misery. Even the paintbrushes I once loved had been abandoned in a corner, left to gather dust.Just thinking about it made my chest ache in waves. I could not bear to imagine how wronged and heartbroken my future self must have felt.Liam looked at me coldly, disappointment filling his eyes."Stella, the evidence from the fire back then was already conclusive. I thought you were the type to own up to what you did. I never expected you'd still be making excuses even now."Tell me this: would Mandy really set herself on fire?"If I hadn't saved her that night, she might actually have died in that house. Do you understand?"I met Liam's sharp gaze as grief and bitterness surged through me at the same time.Back before graduation, someone in class falsely accused me of s

"I don't want any of it. Keep everything."Liam suddenly tore the divorce papers into pieces. He grabbed my wrist, fury blazing in his eyes."Nicely done, Stella. You picked our seventh anniversary to ask me for a divorce, hit our son, and now you don't even want custody anymore, all just so you can leave me?"Have you forgotten how many years you've been a housewife? If we divorce, who's going to support you? What can you even do?"Or are you still angry that Mandy and I went to the art exhibition yesterday?"Wasn't it you who refused to go? You said your hands couldn't even hold a paintbrush steady anymore and that you didn't want to go. So what exactly are you throwing a tantrum over now?"At twenty-eight years old, the very first note in my phone was about yesterday's exhibition.Liam rarely invited me anywhere. The future version of me had actually been excited at first, until she found out the person he truly wanted to invite was Mandy. I had only been an afterthought.Th

Sam froze for a second before breaking into a smile."I heard you stopped painting after getting married and lost your touch. Looks like that was a lie."You haven't declined at all. If anything, your work has even more soul now. Later, I'm going to show this painting to those old critics and make them jealous."I simply smiled without replying.The car soon arrived at the banquet venue. The moment Sam and I entered, we immediately went to find the former maid.She handed me a USB drive, guilt written all over her face as she apologized."Madam, I'm sorry for framing you back then. This contains the recording of Ms. Coot ordering me to do it, along with the video revealing the truth about the fire. I've kept them all these years."She threatened me at the time. She said if I refused to help her, she'd cut off my mother's medical expenses. I was foolish and made the wrong choice. I haven't had a single peaceful night of sleep since then."I could never get close to you or Mr. Be

Chapter 5

"Liam, Stella lost control again. I was only trying to help her just now. I told her there was a beautiful painting over there that she could go look at, and suddenly she got angry, shoved me, and started calling me a b*tch.""Stella came to the banquet?" Liam looked at me in surprise, but the moment our eyes met, the anger in his gaze became impossible to hide."If you were coming, why didn't you tell me? Why can't you ever control your temper? Why do you always have to hurt Mandy? Do I really have to send you to a psychiatric hospital and lock you up for treatment before you'll stop?"The crowd around us immediately began whispering."Stella Tanner? Isn't she that genius painter?""How did she end up like this? I heard she's mentally unstable now."Watching Liam blindly take Mandy's side without even hearing me out, I almost laughed from disbelief."Liam, I haven't even explained anything yet, and you already believe every word she says?"If there's so little trust left in th

Chapter 6

"Mandy, who gave you the nerve to frame her like this?""Because I loved you too much!" Mandy cried. "Liam, what does Stella have that I don't? No matter how much I sacrificed for you, why would you never choose me?!"She covered her face as tears dripped onto the floor. But the moment she looked up and saw the faint smile at the corner of my lips, her emotions completely exploded."Stella, what are you so smug about?! Don't think exposing me means you'll end up any better! You're still a cripple who can't even hold a paintbrush steady! Without this marriage, you're nothing!"I looked at her almost pityingly.Before I could speak, Sam chuckled beside me."Ms. Coot, I think you've misunderstood something. The painting you were just praising so highly was painted by Stella herself."The crowd instantly erupted."I knew it! I kept thinking the technique looked familiar!""So the genius painter from all those years ago has finally returned!""A true genius is still a genius. Even

Chapter 7

By the time I finished all the commissions on hand and finally sat down to take a break, I opened my phone to find a flood of missed calls from Liam.I ignored them and casually blocked his number.A new message suddenly popped up from Sam.[Stella, you should be done by now, right? Want to grab dinner together tonight? If you're free, I can come pick you up at the hotel later.]I smiled.[Sure. Thanks, Sam.]The sunlight outside was warm and bright. I stretched lazily and got ready to head out for a walk.But the moment I stepped downstairs, I spotted two familiar figures standing at the hotel entrance.My brows instinctively furrowed.Before I could react, my son saw me. His face lit up and he ran toward me excitedly."Mom! You finally came downstairs! Dad and I have been waiting here for half a month!"I sidestepped his hug.Charles froze where he stood, staring at me helplessly.Liam walked over. In just half a month, the confident and composed man I remembered was gon

"Different how?""It's just... your whole presence feels different now. I can't really explain it." Sam paused, then smiled. "Forget it. It doesn't matter. You've already pulled yourself out of the mud. From now on, your life belongs to you."A grin spread across his face as he held out his hand to me."Would you be willing to join my team? Let's create paintings so extraordinary they shake the entire art world. Don't worry, I'll pay you the highest rate in the industry. I won't treat you unfairly."Smiling, I reached out and shook his hand."Alright. I'd love to."My injuries were not that serious, so I completed my discharge procedures the very next day.Sam personally drove over to pick me up and headed straight for a restaurant."I ordered a table full of your favorite dishes. Look at how thin you've gotten, you need to eat more."I lowered my head and glanced at myself. Years of mental illness had indeed left me looking much thinner and more worn down than before.I gave

Chapter 9

Liam forced a smile. "That was my mistake. I shouldn't have put you two in an awkward position. I won't disturb your meal any longer. I'll get going first."After Liam and Charles left, Sam sat down across from me and gently opened the final gift box.I froze for a moment when I saw the beautiful diamond ring inside.Half joking, half serious, Sam said, "Stella, when you got married all those years ago, I actually cried for a long time. I hated myself for meeting you too late, because by then there was already someone by your side who loved you. But at the time, I thought that as long as you were happy, it didn't matter."But later, I realized you weren't happy at all. You became more and more withdrawn. Back then, I wanted nothing more than to beat Liam up, but I didn't know what right I had to stand up for you."When you called me that day and asked me to investigate the servants, it felt like I was seeing the eighteen-year-old you again."Sam suddenly looked at me with unusual
