Zackary and I had been married for seven years and finally had our first child. But seeing the pregnancy result, he suspected that the child was not his. Out of anger, I went to do a paternity test with him. On the day the result came out, Zackary, who was supposed to be in the hospital, appeared at my door. He was holding a photo. The photo showed that my underwear was at his friend's house. He kicked me so hard that I lost my baby. He shouted, "You bitch, you dare to cheat on me. I won't raise another man's child, you know. Go to hell!" Later he knew the truth and begged my dead child to come back.

My mother-in-law, Eleanor, was having a heart attack, and my husband, Ben Dover—a heart surgeon—was the only one who could save her. Did I call him? Nope. I just stood there, watching her gasp like a fish out of water. In my last life, I'd begged Ben to come save her. He brushed me off, accusing me of interrupting his time with his mistress, Ima Schit. No matter how much I pleaded, he wouldn't come. Eleanor had died in the hospital. And when Johnny, my father-in-law, demanded answers, Ben flipped the script, saying I'd never even called. He made Eleanor's death my fault. Johnny, blinded by grief and fury, killed me. But plot twist—I woke up. Right back to the day this circus started.

I'm an heiress who's been bound to a gossip system. Everyone reads my mind on my first day back home after being reunited with my family. "Mom sure has done a good job of maintaining her beauty. It's no wonder she became an OnlyFans streamer after divorcing Dad." My mother is about to berate me for something, but she pales and stops when she hears my thoughts. I glance at the fake heiress, who's weeping pitifully. "My, she's pregnant. Is it John's or Zach's?" My two brothers exchange odd looks. Then, my father arrives. I cluck my tongue. "Oh, it's Dad's."

Pitong taon na kaming kasal ni Zackary at sa wakas ay nagkaroon na kami ng unang anak. Ngunit nang makita ang resulta ng pagbubuntis, naghinala siyang hindi kanya ang bata. Dahil sa galit, nagpa-paternity test ako sa kanya. Noong araw na lumabas ang resulta, si Zackary, na dapat ay nasa ospital, ay nagpakita sa aking pintuan. May hawak siyang litrato. Makikita sa litrato na nasa bahay ng kaibigan niya ang underwear ko. Sinipa niya ako ng malakas kaya nawala ang baby ko. Sumigaw siya, "You bitch, ang lakas ng loob mo na lokohin ako. Hindi ako magpapalaki ng anak ng ibang lalaki, alam mo ‘yon. Go to hell!" Nang maglaon ay nalaman niya ang katotohanan at nakiusap sa aking patay na anak na bumalik.

Humiliated and heartbroken, she vowed to revenge and then she signs the divorce papers and accepts a surprising marriage proposal from Calvin Johnson, a mysterious billionaire confined to a wheelchair. "It appears we both don't have an affection for each other, so you'll be my wife until I'm able to secure my position as heir." Calvin stated coldly, as he rolled his wheel chair towards Kate.

My nanny, Lucci Eyre, liked to call herself an independent, modern woman. She used to tell me every day to be self-reliant, do my own laundry and cooking, take care of the kids by myself, and even suggested that I divorce my husband. Later on, I found out that she was actually a social media influencer. Without asking for my permission, she made a series of videos trying to make me look pathetic as a Stepford wife. She also stole my jewelry and clothes. After I fired her, she accused me in the live stream of being a rival female competitor and pandering to men. Then one of her crazy fans tricked her way into my home and poisoned me. When I woke up again, I was reborn to the day I discovered that her social media account had millions of followers. ‘Since you're so into live streaming and making short videos, why not show everyone who you really are and let them see the independent woman that you are?’

Nangilid ang luha ni Alyana nang makita ang mga letrato na nagpapatunay ng panloloko sa kanya ni Derrick. Muling bumalik sa kanya ang sakit na talagang niloloko lang siya ni Derrick, na nioloko lang siya ng kaisa isang lalakeng pinagkatiwalaan niya. “Your boyfriend has been cheating on you since you’ve been together. And I need a wife for me to get my inheritance. Kaya pakasalan mo ako, at ipamukha natin sa pamangkin ko kung gaano siya katanga na pinakawalan ka," mariing ani pa ni Gabriel. Mabigat ang bawat salita, punong-puno ng determinasyon at galit. Sabay noon, dahan-dahang nilagay ni Gabriel ang kamay sa bewang ni Alyana. Hindi siya agad gumalaw. Parang natigilan ang buong katawan niya, pero kasunod no’n ay ang mainit na dampi ng labi ni Gabriel sa kanya, mabilis, ngunit may bakas ng kontroladong pagnanasa. Isang halik na parang paunang tikim sa mas mapusok pang alok. Napasinghap si Alyana, napaigtad sa gulat. Napatingin siya sa mga mata ni Gabriel, matapang, diretso, at puno ng panunukso. "It's a win-win situation," bulong ni Gabriel, habang hindi inaalis ang tingin sa kanya. "Makakapaghiganti ka sa manloloko mong ex, at ako, makukuha ko ang mana ko."

I become unemployed when I'm four months pregnant, and my husband asks that we become independent of each other in our marriage. We manage our own finances and pay for our own expenses. Even when I'm suffering from major blood loss during labor, he's unwilling to pay to save my life. My child and I both lose our lives. When I open my eyes, I find that I'm back to the day my husband asks that we become independent of each other. I readily agree. What he doesn't know is that I can morph into a seahorse and transfer the baby to his body so he can carry it to term.
