Eleanor Sutton was in love with Harrison Luther since she was 20 years old. She married him when she turned 22. Five years into their marriage, they had yet to have a child together. Harrison kept protecting Eleanor from his family while enduring the pressure they kept inflicting on him. At that time, everyone claimed that Eleanor was Harrison's weak spot. But everything changed once news of Harrison having an illegitimate child was leaked. He kneeled in the downpour for the whole day afterward as a form of punishment. Then, he explained to Eleanor that it was just an accident, and that he vowed to love her and her only. So, Eleanor accepted the outcome of the illegitimate child being kept in the family, while the mistress was exiled far, far away. But despite Harrison's promise, his mistress, Winona Birch, still ended up moving into Eleanor's home, where she'd be cared for during her pregnancy. Harrison began skipping meetings for her sake, and he'd also ditch Eleanor just so he could go on strolls with Winona. In fact, he'd even abandon Eleanor halfway during their dates in order to be with Winona. The first time Eleanor brought up divorce, Harrison slit his wrists in the bathroom. He left a suicide note, claiming that he'd rather die than not being able to grow old with Eleanor. When divorce was brought up the second time, Harrison hurriedly pleaded to Eleanor to not leave him. But after multiple conflicts, his attitude toward her became wishy-washy. After their 100th argument, Eleanor ran away from their home. Harrison no longer went after her, thinking that she'd eventually return to his side. But she died in that rainy night. When Eleanor opens her eyes again, she finds out that she has returned to the day Harrison's illegitimate child is exposed. This time, she dials a number. "I shall accept the offer of becoming a war correspondent." Her editor reminds her that she won't be able to get in touch with the outside world once she embarks on this journey, and that she needs Harrison's permission in order to accept the offer. Eleanor merely replies, "I'll divorce Harrison soon. I'll depart on time in a week." She wants to make sure that Harrison will never be able to find her anymore.

Dalam perjalanan ke bank untuk menyetor uang, aku tidak sengaja menemukan sebuah postingan: [Pernahkah Anda melakukan sesuatu yang sulit diungkapkan tanpa diketahui pasangan Anda?] Di bawah postingan, seorang netizen berkomentar : [Aku diam-diam mendaftarkan pernikahanku dengan cinta pertamaku, tapi pacarku masih menyetor uang ke rekening bersama kami. Dia benar-benar bodoh. Dia kira aku benar-benar ingin menabung untuk membeli rumah dan menikahinya.] [Sudah ada 1,3 miliyar di dalam rekening, ketika dia sudah menabung sampai 1,6 miliyar, aku akan diam-diam menariknya!] Aku melihat komentar itu banyak disukai, lalu melihat saldo rekeningku. Tidak lebih, tidak kurang, pas 1,3 miliyar. Ternyata pacarku dan cinta pertamanya telah mendaftarkan pernikahan mereka!

A contract is desperately needed for the company to close the deal on a project, so I head over to the administrative department to lodge a request for printing paper. However, the administrative employee, Lydia Reed, slaps on an arrogant expression. "In order to prevent bottom feeders like you from taking advantage of the company by stealing the company's resources, the company's rulebook has already stated that you must bring your own paper to work!" I just point at the pile of boxes containing A4 paper behind Lydia before asking coldly, "Then who are those resources meant for?" Lydia rolls her eyes at me. "Well, they are meant for people who truly are worthy of this company's resources, duh! "You're just a meager project manager who keeps asking for money without making any contributions at all, so you can forget about getting your hands on anything that belongs to the company!" I nod in return. After leaving the department, I dial a number. "I'm sorry, Mr. Cross. It seems that we shall not be participating in the 200-million-dollar bid after all."

Siya’y isang mahirap na babaeng lumaking nakadepende ang kanyang buhay sa iba. Napilitang maging isang panakipbutas sa krimen at piniling ipagpalit ang kalayaan na nagresulta sa kanyang pagkabuntis. Siya naman ay ang pinakatanyag na binata na sagana sa kayaman at kapangyarihan. Kumbinsido siyang isa siyang anak ng kasamaan na napalilibutan ng kasakiman at panlilinlang. Hindi siya nito magawang mapainit kaya naman mas pinili niyang umalis sa tabi nito. Galit na galit niyang sinumpa na gagawin niya ang lahat upang mahanap siya saan mang lupalop ng mundo ito naroon. Alam ng buong lungsod ang kanyang kapalarang tila mauupos sa ilang milyong piraso. Nagmamakaawa niyang tinanong, “Umalis ako sa relasyong ito nang walang kinuhang kahit ano, bakit hindi mo pa ako pakawalan?” Sinagot sya nito na may pagmamalaki, “Ninakaw mo ang puso ko at iniluwal ang aking anak, ngayon pipiliin mong umalis?”
