Isang trahedyang gabi ang nagtapos sa buhay ni Elena Marquez, isang babaeng nabuhay na puno ng pagsisisi at mga pangarap na hindi natupad. Sa kanyang huling hininga, iisa lamang ang hiling niya ang mabigyan ng isa pang pagkakataon upang itama ang mga maling desisyon ng nakaraan. Ngunit ang ikalawang buhay na ibinigay sa kanya ay higit na mas kumplikado kaysa sa inaasahan niya. Nagising si Elena sa katawan ni Aurelia Deveraux, ang asawa ng isang makapangyarihang bilyonaryong si Sebastian Deveraux.

At kapag nalaman ni Sebastian ang lahat, pipiliin ba niya ang babaeng minahal niya sa alaala o ang kaluluwang minahal niya sa kasalukuyan?

Two weeks before my wedding to Alexander Hayes, he invites his friends over to our small home. During dinner, Alexander keeps groping me, whether intentionally or not. After they finish eating, I overhear their conversation as I clear the dishes and walk past the study. "Alex, Lydia's quite something. I touched her earlier, and her skin's so soft. She nearly pulled my soul out. "If you don't mind, let us guys have some fun with her once she pays off the debt for you. We'll help you cover the cost of whatever Kay wants." Alexander chuckles softly, his voice casual and careless. "Sure, I don't mind. I've been sleeping with her for so long, I'm already sick of her anyway. "Just make sure she doesn't rat us out to my grandpa... Actually, forget it. She's blind anyway, so she won't figure it out." For two years, I've devoted myself completely to taking care of Alexander, yet he's ready to throw me into other men's beds, using my body to settle his debts. I stand silently at the doorway, feeling absolutely nothing. Of course, I know that someone else has been replacing him for a year. The person who holds me close night after night isn't him, and the child in my belly isn't his either.
