Chapter 1

“Jake, who are you talking to? The ceremony’s about to start.”Just as I was about to hang up, a woman’s voice came through the phone.My boyfriend, Jake, replied, “A client. I’ll be done in a minute.”Then, he lowered his voice to comfort me.“Baby, stop being upset, okay? I’m getting married today. I’ll call you back once I’m done.”Beep, beep, beep…The line went dead.The staff glanced at me and asked, “Do you still want to process the paperwork?”I shook my head and walked out.A passerby handed me a can of soda when she saw how miserable I looked.“Hey, it’s okay. There are plenty of good men out there. Don’t waste your life on just him.”I looked at the cigarette dangling from her lips and boldly asked, “Can I have one too?”I used to be heavily addicted to smoking, but Jake once said, “A girl should be graceful and ladylike. Smoking isn’t a good look.”I quit smoking for him. I stopped for ten whole years.I did not want to spend the last few days of my life tryin

Chapter 2

Jake was wearing the suit I designed for him and the diamond ring I picked out for him, but he was not marrying me.He pressed a hand to his temple irritably.“I already told you, I’m just helping her recover. Can you be a little more understanding?”My heart clenched.I still remembered the moment the system’s deadline notification appeared. I begged him desperately, “Jake, if I don’t marry you this time, I’ll die. Can you please come register the marriage with me?”Back then, he just gave me a cold stare.“I told you, Whitney is just someone from my past. Can you stop making a scene?”When I refused to give up, he finally gave in reluctantly.“As long as you give the project to Whitney, I’ll marry you.”I thought that if I pleased him, if I let him stay with his first love and even handed over a billion-dollar project, I would be able to survive.However, I was wrong.He agreed to marry me, only to stand me up on the day of our registration and instead marry Whitney.He l

It did not matter anymore.I just want to live for myself for the last seven days of my life.…I stopped sending Jake good-morning and good-night texts, and I no longer replied to his messages.On the second day after my death sentence, I went to the bar he hated most. I smoked, drank, and danced until dawn.On the third day, I sold all the gifts he had given me and donated the money to charity.On the fourth day, I burned all thirty thousand photos we had taken together.The butler tried to persuade me.“Mr. Field is just confused for a moment. He still loves you.“You two built everything together, and it wasn’t easy. You should try to win him back before Whitney really takes your place.”Jake started out as an ordinary man. The system tasked me with winning him over, so I stayed by his side while he built his business.I handled the hardest work and took on the most difficult projects. There were countless times when I drank so much with clients that I was hospitalized,

Whitney noticed that I remained unmoved and suddenly panicked when she heard approaching footsteps.She flipped over a chair to fake a fall, slapped her own face, and curled up on the ground with a pitiful cry.“Whitney, what happened?!”Jake hurried over to check her injuries.Whitney immediately covered her face and wailed, “Jake, I just wanted to apologize to your senior, but she hit me.”Jake’s face darkened with anger as he kicked over the food container.“Estelle, when did you become so unreasonable? You even hit someone?“I bought you your favorite food. Now, I’d rather feed it to a dog than give it to you.”The dishes scattered on the floor were indeed all my favorites.Who cared?He did not ask me for my side of the story nor check the surveillance. He took Whitney’s words as truth and pinned the blame on me.In the end, it was simple. He did not love me, so he refused to believe me.He roared when I did not respond.“Apologize to Whitney right now!”Apologize?

Chapter 5

Jake saw me lying on the ground. He was about to walk over when he suddenly seemed to remember something and stopped in his tracks.“I almost fell for your act.“Come on, it’s not April Fool’s Day. Get up.“You scared me. I dropped all the food I made! Now, I have to start over again.”My soul hovered beside the scene, watching it all with nothing but a sarcastic expression.When someone did not love you, even your death was another pretense to them.I was clearly lying there, my face pale, yet he still had not realized it. His tone was annoyed.“Estelle, I finally finished work and came to see you. Can you stop this nonsense?”I was already dead. I could not respond anymore.He grew impatient and nudged me with his foot.“Hey!”My body rolled slightly from the push.Only then did he finally notice how pale I looked. Panic flashed in his eyes as he rushed over.“Estelle, what’s wrong with you?“It’s just three days of confinement. Don’t scare me by pretending to be dead.

Chapter 6

Jake’s anger surged instantly when no one spoke. He roared, “Speak! Have you all gone mute? Who else has been here recently?!”The bodyguards hesitated for a moment. When they were just about to say Whitney had visited, she hurried over in quick, determined steps.She was perfectly composed, so well-disguised that it seemed as though she had never harmed me at all.However, the shock and panic in her eyes made it clear to me that she was far less calm than she appeared.“Jake, what’s going on?“Is your senior sick? What did she say?”Jake had no patience to deal with her.Just then, the ambulance arrived.He immediately called for the doctors.The nurses quickly transferred me onto the stretcher and hooked me up to emergency equipment.Not a single face looked calm inside the ambulance.The doctor heaved a sigh and said, “Mr. Field, the patient has no vital signs. Please accept our condolences.”…Jake froze on the spot, then suddenly broke down.“You’re lying! She was fi

He was cautious by nature and had installed surveillance cameras throughout the house.Whitney had no idea about it.When she saw Jake starting to review the footage, her expression changed instantly. She clutched her stomach and slowly collapsed to the ground.“Jake, my stomach hurts so badly!”…Jake only glanced at her once before ignoring her completely.Even if he had been slow to realize things before, he could clearly see through her little tricks at this point.“There’s a doctor here. Go ahead and register yourself if you’re not feeling well.”He kept his eyes fixed on the surveillance footage, ignoring everyone around him.First, he pulled up the video from the night of our argument.He saw Whitney faking a fall and framing me with his own eyes.His gaze turned sharp and icy as he shot her a cold look.Whitney immediately lowered her head, pretending to be wronged.“I’m sorry. I just felt like you and your senior were getting too close, so I got a little jealous

Chapter 8

Jake’s gaze was so piercing that it sent chills down Whitney’s spine.Suddenly, inspiration struck her, and she hurriedly came up with an excuse.“After Estelle hit me, my head started hurting badly, and some memories began coming back to me.”Jake stared at her for a long moment before nodding slowly.“Fine. I won’t deal with you until I finish investigating everything.”I was not surprised at all when I saw that.He had always favored Whitney. From the beginning to the end, that had never changed.Now, he had finally married the woman he wanted, and I was already dead.Of course he would not destroy his relationship with the woman he once loved over someone who was gone.Whitney quietly let out a sigh of relief and hurried away, not daring to stay any longer.Jake dismissed everyone else and remained alone in the morgue with me.He held my hand as tears glistened in his eyes.“It’s only been a few days, and you’ve already gotten thinner. Even the wound on your face still

Chapter 9

It was not until the day I was buried that Jake finally forced himself to hold on for long enough to see me off.The news spread through the media almost immediately, and countless reporters crowded around my funeral.Whitney held Jake’s hand, trying to comfort him while whispering anxiously, “Stop being upset. There are so many reporters here today. You need to think about the bigger picture.”However, Jake only let out a cold laugh before turning toward the cameras.“I lied to everyone before. Whitney was my first love, but we broke up long ago. For all these years, the person I was truly with was my business partner, Estelle.“We kept our relationship private for the sake of our careers.“But I failed her. I believed Whitney’s lies, let myself be manipulated by her so-called life-saving favor, and even registered my marriage to her.“In the end, I caused the death of the woman I truly loved.”Gasps erupted throughout the crowd. None of the reporters had expected the truth to

Chapter 10

“Of course I didn’t kill Estelle. I was wronged!”Whitney begged frantically for mercy.However, like the boy who cried wolf, Jake would never believe her again after seeing through her past lies.When I saw her finally cornered with no way to explain herself, I felt a strange sense of relief in my chest.This was karma.Jake locked her in a room and whipped her over and over again.“Is this how you hit Estelle before?“Estelle was my wife, the person I loved most. How dare you hurt her!”Whitney screamed in agony, still insisting on her innocence.As he continued, Jake suddenly remembered that I had once said I would die if I did not get to marry him.Guilt overwhelmed him. He struck Whitney again and again.“Estelle, was what you said true? Did you really die because I didn’t marry you?“I’m sorry. My arrogance killed you. I’ll make the real culprit pay.”I was locked up for three days, so he made Whitney suffer for three days as well.Using the files from my hospital r
