My best friend, Scarlett Throne, is diagnosed with cancer. After running away from home, she takes her own life. She leaves behind only a testament and a pair of eight-year-old twins, a boy and a girl. "You're the only person I can rely on in this world. I'm not asking you to adopt them, but just make sure they have enough to eat." Out of compassion, I take the siblings in. For the next 20 years, my husband and I have been working hard together to raise them, buying them cars and houses. But one day, my adopted daughter reports my husband for being abusive toward her. Even my supposedly dead best friend suddenly appears and testifies against him. I demand to know why she does such a thing. My best friend, filled with righteous indignation, says, "I see you as my best friend! I've never thought you adopted my children just to serve your husband's perversions!" My husband's reputation is ruined, and he's been thrown in jail. I desperately try to prove his innocence, only to be forcibly sent to a mental hospital by my adopted son. There, I wither away and die. When I open my eyes again, I find myself back on the very day my best friend was diagnosed with cancer.

In my last life, my sister and I got adopted into two very different worlds. My mom? The "cool" type. Let me perm my hair in elementary school, signed off on a nose job in middle school, and shoved me toward one of Northport's richest heirs right after college. Ella's mom? Hardcore strict. Pulled her out of a fling with some delinquent and married her off to a quiet professor with a just-decent paycheck. Ella hated it. Wanted my life so bad. So when I ended up in the hospital pregnant, she used her shiny doctor title to kill me—and my baby. Then boom—I woke up, and we were back to adoption day. This time, she dove for the mom she thought handed me the dream. What she didn't know? That "cool mom" she worshipped was straight-up a monster.

"Mom, Dad, I've made up my mind. I'll go back and take over the family business." When Jaycie Stanton's parents heard that she had finally agreed, they were overjoyed on the other end of the phone. However, thoughts of her hidden identity and the boyfriend she had kept in the dark led them to ask, "Is your boyfriend coming back with you? Have you told him the truth about who you are?" "I haven't. I'm going to break up with him."

In my past life, I worked at a secret research lab abroad. From there, I learned the pyro-calypse was approaching, so I quit my job, intending to gather my family to stockpile necessities and hide out in the mountains. However, my evil mother, her lover, and my brother killed me. When I next open my eyes, I find myself reborn on the day I return home. This time, I keep the news to myself and stockpile necessities in our mountain villa. At the same time, I get revenge on my evil family and make them get the punishment they deserve.

My husband only lasts a minute each time. As a mature woman in my thirties, I often find myself lying awake at night, feeling like something is missing from my life. That is, until I met a rugged, muscular mechanic while getting my car repaired. Watching his strong muscles flex beneath his tank top awakened a desire I hadn’t felt in a long time. Our brief, intense encounter left me overwhelmed with emotions I couldn’t control. Just as things were about to go too far, I pushed him away, not wanting to make a mistake. But then I discovered that my husband had already been cheating on me with our pregnant neighbor. So, maybe I should just...

My fiancé, Conrad Reese, fell in love with his secretary, Kelly Dunn, and insisted on breaking off our engagement. I tried to reason with him. "She doesn't have any power behind her; she can't help you become the heir to the Reeses' fortune. You'd be better off keeping her as your mistress." Kelly, feeling insulted, threw herself off a building in front of everyone. Five years later, after he became the heir, the first thing he did was divorce me, destroying my family in the process. "This is what you owe Kelly," he said. I woke up again, and it was my 22nd birthday. Conrad's grandfather asked me what my wish was. "I hope Conrad and Ms. Dunn… will live happily ever after." I bowed slightly and said, "Please, Mr. Jonathan. I hope you'll let me end my engagement with Conrad."

Après ma renaissance, j'ai décidé de ne plus m'accrocher à Jérémie, mon ami d'enfance. Lors de sa fête d'anniversaire, un panneau « Interdit aux chiens et à Nancy » était planté. Je suis partie donc à Hawaï, le plus loin possible de lui. Il a déclaré que mon odeur dans sa maison le dégoûtait ? J'ai déménagé sans protester. Il a exigé qu'après le diplôme, je ne partageais plus l'air de sa ville ? J'ai plié bagage pour ne jamais revenir. Puis il a affirmé que ma simple existence perturbait son premier amour, j'ai acquiescé... et ai officialisé peu après une relation avec un autre. À chaque fois, j'ai fait le contraire de mes choix passés. Parce que dans ma vie antérieure, après avoir enfin épousé Jérémie, son premier amour s'est suicidée en sautant d'une falaise. Il m'avait accusée de meurtre, m'avait torturée, m'avait brisée... avant de me jeter aux requins. Cette fois, je voulais juste survivre. Plus tard, alors que je tenais la main de mon nouveau compagnon, Jérémie nous a barré la route, les yeux injectés de sang : « Nancy... Suis-moi maintenant, et je pardonnerai cette mauvaise blague. »

My father died of a serious illness. One day before his funeral, my fiancée returned home to get married to her crush. When I confronted her about her actions, she got annoyed with me. "His father has cancer. His last wish is to see me marry him.” "I just want to do a good deed. Can you stop being so selfish?" When I called her that night, it was her crush who picked up the call. "Helen's showering right now. I'll pass your message to her." I said nothing. All I did was hang up calmly. Later that night, my fiancée finally called me. She sounded exhausted. "I'll be having my wedding reception soon. Don't bother me with your dad's funeral." This time, I continued staying silent. However, I got rid of my engagement ring and canceled all of our engagement plans.

Avant mes dix-huit ans, j'avais été la princesse adorée de la famille Moreau. Tout cela a changé le jour de mon dix-huitième anniversaire, lorsque mon père a ramené à la maison une orpheline du nom de Catherine. « Elle a besoin d'un foyer, » a dit mon père. « Tu t'occuperas d'elle, comme d'une sœur. » À partir de ce moment, rien n'était plus pareil. Mon frère, qui m'adulait autrefois, est devenu froid et distant. Et mon fiancé… son amour pour moi a semblé se réduire de moitié du jour au lendemain. La famille a loué Catherine pour sa douceur et son obéissance, la qualifiant de bien meilleure fille que moi, comme leur propre chair et sang. Après avoir été mise de côté pour Catherine trop de fois, j'ai craqué enfin et ai attrapé la manche de mon père. « Le lien du sang ne signifie-t-il rien du tout ? » La fureur de mon père s'est enflammée. Il a caché une Catherine en larmes derrière lui, et devant tous les membres de la famille, il m'a giflée violemment. « Espèce de déchet égoïste. J'aurais préféré ne jamais t'avoir. » « Tu as coupé l'honneur de cette famille, » la voix de mon frère, Marco, était aussi froide qu'une lame. « Va-t'en. » Et mon fiancé, Vincent, m'a regardée avec déception. « Pourquoi a-t-il fallu que ce soit toi ? Pourquoi n'ai-je pas été fiancé à Catherine depuis le début ? » Ils pensaient que je me prosternerais à leurs pieds, comme je l'avais toujours fait. Mais je n'ai dit rien. J'ai marché simplement vers le coffre-fort de la famille, en ai retiré les documents officiels, et ai tracé une seule ligne à travers mon nom. J'ai retiré la bague de fiançailles de mon doigt et l'ai déposée sur la table. J'ai donné à Catherine tout ce qu'ils pensaient que je ne méritais pas. Après tout, il ne me restait que quelques jours à vivre. Mais ils ne savaient pas alors qu'au milieu des ruines de la famille Moreau, un jour, ils se retrouveraient à genoux sous la pluie, implorant mon retour.

Je m'appelle Diana et j'ai épousé William pour rembourser les dettes de mes parents. Il est riche, puissant, mais il ne m'aime pas. J'étais censée rester mariée et soumise à lui, ce que j'ai fait. Mais il m'a choquée en m'offrant une lettre de divorce trois ans après le mariage, m'accusant de l'avoir trompé. J'étais enceinte et je ne lui en ai pas parlé. Que se passera-t-il quand mon secret sera révélé ?
