Chapter 1

Adrian Lawson was technically Penelope's adopted brother, but he'd been raised to become her husband.Because Penelope was the Lawson family’s only daughter, her parents had adopted Adrian from an orphanage to groom him into a worthy heir. The plan had been simple: once he grew up, he would marry Penelope and eventually inherit the Lawson family business.Except Adrian didn't love Penelope. His heart belonged to his childhood sweetheart, Moira Leedon, the girl who had grown up alongside him in the orphanage.Though Adrian had always been kind to Penelope, he saw her as nothing more than a younger sister he needed to protect, never as a potential bride.He had planned to wait until the right moment to tell her parents the truth. He was willing to repay his adoptive parents for raising him, but he refused to marry someone he didn't love.He never anticipated that Mr. Lawson would die suddenly in a car crash. Terrified that Adrian would run off with Moira, leaving the family busi

Chapter 2

Mrs. Lawson had no idea what had gotten into Adrian. She hurried over and pulled him away from Penelope.Penelope trembled as she hid behind her mother, faking pure terror. "What's wrong with you, Adrian? What are you talking about dying? I have no idea what you mean."Adrian stared at her hard for a long moment, pressing his fingers firmly against her wrist to check her pulse. Only when he confirmed she was truly alive did he finally begin to calm down.He let out a long breath, turning to Mrs. Lawson with an excuse. "I just had a terrible nightmare that something happened to Penelope. Seeing her right after waking up... I guess I was still shaken up."Mrs. Lawson chuckled. "You've spoiled Penelope rotten since she was a kid. It was just a dream, don't scare yourself like that."Penelope felt tears welling up in her eyes.It was true. Adrian had always cared so much about her.He had willingly given up a better university just for her, stayed up all night tutoring her, and alwa

A few days later, the Lawson Group hosted its annual anniversary gala.This was a major event on the Lawson family's calendar every single year, one attended by company shareholders, extended family, and every employee in the firm.Although it was meant to be a corporate celebration, this year's venue had been decorated with an unusually intimate touch. Soft pink roses, cascading white drapes, and countless floating balloons gave the entire room the romantic ambiance of an engagement party.Taking in the scene, Penelope felt a wave of unease wash over her. Something felt deeply wrong.Across the room, Adrian moved seamlessly through the crowd, chatting with guests while Moira walked closely by his side.Adrian was the picture of a perfect gentleman, attending to Moira with utmost care.Ever since that fateful night, the two had officially made things public. Now, at such a high-profile event, he held her hand tightly, as if announcing to the entire world that Moira was the only

Chapter 4

The announcement left the crowd stunned.Between the romantic decorations and Mrs. Lawson's introductory speech, it had been obvious that the family intended to arrange a match. No one had expected the bride-to-be to publicly shoot it down.Though caught off guard, the guests knew better than to pry into private family affairs. After a brief, awkward silence, a smattering of applause broke out across the room.Moira let out a visible sigh of relief. But Adrian, the one who should have been thrilled, looked positively thunderous.He downed his drink in a single gulp and stormed out of the hall alone, leaving Moira behind without a word.---The moment Penelope stepped off the stage, she pulled her mother into a quiet corner for a serious talk."Mom, didn't I tell you already? I don't love Adrian anymore. Why would you do something like this without my permission?"I'm telling you one last time! There is zero chance between me and Adrian. If you ever try to set us up again, I'll

Chapter 5

With the engagement officially called off and her mother realizing that pushing the issue with Adrian was a dead end, Mrs. Lawson quickly set up other blind dates for Penelope.Unaware of the setup, Penelope went to meet her match, only to discover that her date was an old acquaintance.Marcus Carter, the man who had pursued her relentlessly for three full years.Back then, she had been entirely fixated on Adrian and had taken it for granted that they would eventually marry, so she had turned Marcus down without a second thought.According to what she heard in her past life, after she married Adrian, Marcus had poured his heart and soul into his career before eventually moving to the United States, never to return.She never expected him to be her blind date today.Reuniting under such an awkward circumstance made Penelope feel a bit self-conscious.Marcus, however, acted completely at ease, taking the initiative to explain. "I heard from your mom that you don't like Adrian anym

Chapter 6

The next day, Penelope got dressed and prepared to go out.She had plans to meet Marcus Carter and wanted to leave a little early.But just as she came downstairs, she ran into Adrian and Moira.Penelope couldn't tell whether Adrian was doing it on purpose, but he mentioned that Moira wanted to go clothes shopping and needed another woman to accompany her. He made it pretty clear that he expected Penelope to come along.Moira also reminded Penelope that she'd promised to buy her a gift but hadn't gotten around to it yet. She insisted that Penelope join them.Unable to turn her down, Penelope had no choice but to follow them out.Throughout the outing, Adrian showered Moira with attention, practically forgetting that Penelope was walking behind them.Watching the couple ahead of her, Penelope couldn't understand what Adrian was trying to accomplish.She'd already made up her mind in this second life. She would never get involved with him again.There was no reason for him to be

Chapter 7

Penelope hadn't been expecting Marcus to agree.Marriage wasn't something to take lightly, especially when it meant starting a relationship with someone who was essentially using you.Even she thought she was asking too much.But it was only an idea, and she'd been prepared for him to turn her down the moment she brought it up.Marcus looked up at her, a flash of excitement in his eyes.He took her hand, his voice sincere and steady."As long as I can help you, I don't mind."Penelope fell silent for a moment before smiling and squeezing his hand."Then let's give this a shot."Over the following days, Penelope and Marcus saw each other frequently, and their relationship progressed quickly.She even invited him over to her house.It was the first time Penelope had ever brought a guy home for dinner, so Mrs. Lawson naturally welcomed him with open arms.That evening, Adrian happened to come home while they were having dinner.The moment he saw the three of them laughing and

Chapter 8

That night, Adrian showed up outside Penelope's bedroom window again, just as he'd done before.But this time, she hadn't just locked her door. She'd secured the window, too.Staring at the tightly shut window, Adrian was so furious he almost laughed.So this was how far Penelope was willing to go to keep him out now?He knocked on the glass, but there was no response."Penelope, quit pretending. I know you're awake."Minutes ticked by, but Penelope didn't make a sound.His expression turned ice-cold.She was certainly putting on a convincing act.He'd just have to see what else she had up her sleeve.Early the next morning, before Adrian could even head downstairs, he received a call from his assistant.There was a problem with one of the company's overseas partnerships, and he needed to fly over and handle it personally.Adrian had managed practically every aspect of the family business for years, and this situation was no exception.He'd been planning to have another ta

"This is Penelope's wedding?"Adrian's eyes widened as he stared at the couple in disbelief.He couldn't understand it.In their previous life, Penelope had been so obsessed with him that she'd refused to let him go. How could she actually be willing to marry someone else now?His outburst left Moira confused."Wasn't Penelope already dating Marcus before you left? They got married at the courthouse the day you flew out of the country. Adrian, where are you going?!"Before Moira could finish, Adrian rushed toward Penelope, grabbed her hand, and tried to drag her away.“Penelope, come with me right now, and I'll let everything you've done slide!”Penelope had barely stepped out of the wedding car when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulling her off balance.She stumbled several steps, completely bewildered by his words.If she hadn't recognized Adrian's voice, she would've screamed for security.Marcus hurried forward and caught her other hand.He met Adrian's furious gl

Chapter 10

After saying that, Adrian seemed to convince even himself. He quietly let out a breath of relief.Though he had no idea why he'd been so nervous in the first place.A moment later, he seemed to remember something. He turned to Moira and slipped an arm around her shoulders."Moira, don't get the wrong idea. You're the only woman I've ever loved. That's never changed."Moira didn't say whether she believed him.She simply stared at him.After a while, Adrian grew uncomfortable under her gaze. Not knowing what else to say, he looked away.His eyes drifted toward the hotel, where the wedding celebrations were in full swing.Before he knew it, he was walking toward the entrance.Moira hurried after him.The moment they stepped inside, they were greeted by an enormous photograph.In it, Penelope and Marcus stood close together, smiling happily, their affection for each other plain to see.Adrian stared at the picture, momentarily dazed.He could barely remember the last time he'
