Jane Eyre 2nd Edition

After the college entrance exams, my parents left me at home and took their adopted daughter on a trip to the beach. A typhoon hit, and the three of them never came back. When the news reached me, I did not cry or throw a tantrum. I had their deaths registered right away and pulled out the life insurance I had bought in advance. I received one hundred million in compensation. My fiance scolded me for caring only about money. What he did not know was that I had been reborn. In my past life, after I learned about their deaths, the huge debts they had left behind fell on me. I gave up the chance to go to college and started working to pay everything back. I fought to protect our ancestral home from debt collectors. My fiance stayed with me and cheered me on when I came home late at night from delivery runs. But he never gave me a single cent to help. At thirty-five, I finally cleared every debt. On my birthday, I bought myself a ten-dollar cake to celebrate. Just as I was about to blow out the candle, the door opened. My parents and their adopted daughter, who should have died in the typhoon, walked in dressed in designer clothes. They smiled at me smugly. “Well done! We can finally believe that you aren’t greedy for money. You’ve passed the test. From today, you are qualified to be the daughter of the Jameson family.” “Jane, this brilliant idea was all thanks to you.” My adopted sister smiled. She leaned close and blew out my candle. The only light left in my twenty years of lifetime went out with it. My body gave in to exhaustion. My heart failed. I collapsed and died on the spot. When I opened my eyes again, they were about to head to the beach in the middle of the typhoon. I bought a massive accident insurance policy for them on the spot. This time, all I wanted was for them to disappear from this world forever.

Si Sophia Florence ay isang napakagandang babae na may pusong handang magsakripisyo para sa pag-ibig. Limang taon niyang inialay ang kanyang buhay kay Wright William, ang gwapong CEO ng Wright Trading Inc.—isang self-made billionaire na hinubog ng ambisyon at sakripisyo. Ngunit sa kabila ng kanyang tagumpay, ang kanilang kasal ay isang lihim sa mata ng mundo. Si Sophia ang lihim na asawa, ang babaeng laging nasa anino, patuloy na nagmamahal sa isang lalaking hindi kayang ibigay ang buong pagmamahal sa kanya. Sa kanilang ikalimang anibersaryo, pumasok si Sophia sa Wright Tower, dala ang homemade lunch at isang malaking lihim—siya ay buntis. Ngunit sa isang iglap, nagbago ang lahat. Sa gitna ng grand marble lobby, nakita niyang hawak ni Wright ang kamay ng isang babae—si Jane Clyde-Wright, ang "opisyal" na asawa sa mata ng publiko. Ang sakit na dulot ng katotohanan ay parang isang matalim na kutsilyo na sumaksak sa kanyang dibdib, habang siya'y umiiyak, nagiging multo sa sarili niyang kasal. Sa pinakamadilim na sandali ng kanyang buhay, lumitaw si Teddy Smith, ang misteryosong business partner ni Wright—gwapo, mayaman, at puno ng galit para kay Wright. Ibinukas ni Teddy kay Sophia ang pinto ng paghihiganti, ngunit sa kanilang paglalakbay ng lihim na pagmamahal, nagsimulang matuklasan ni Sophia ang mas malalalim na lihim na nagtatago sa kanyang pamilya at ang tunay na motibo ni Teddy. Habang ang mga lihim at pagnanasa ay lumalalim, natutuklasan ni Sophia ang mga madilim na katotohanan bakit itinago ni Wright ang kanilang kasal? Ano ang tunay na layunin ni Teddy? Sa bawat hakbang patungo sa katarungan, kailangan niyang magdesisyon: Mananatili ba siya sa sakit ng nakaraan, o susunod siya sa mapanganib na pag-ibig kay Teddy, na may panganib na magbigay ng kaligtasan... o magdala sa kanya ng kapahamakan?
