00:00ryan carter the famous playboy air openly declared that he only dated women on short-term arrangements
00:06people all laughed at me saying i was the most miserable wealthy wife in history
00:10they all thought i'd endure it for the rest of my life until ryan brought a college student
00:15named kelly smith home the girl looked ordinary yet she was the first woman he kept longer than
00:20a month ryan gave me two choices agree to an open marriage and let kelly be on equal terms with
00:26me
00:26or just divorce him split the assets evenly and go our separate ways for good his friends were there
00:32watching the show they were sure i'd just keep being a pushover putting up with everything but
00:38to their surprise i chose the latter without hesitation in my previous life i chose to endure
00:43and what i got in return was kelly pushing her luck further and further she forbade ryan from touching
00:48me or giving me any of his assets in my later years i couldn't help but envy kelly who ended
00:54up with
00:54everything money children the whole package even after ryan died his will didn't grant me anything
01:00all his inheritance was left under kelly's control i had been his lawful wife but ended up with nothing
01:06at last reborn into this life i finally figured everything out this time i just wanted to take
01:12the money and leave i picked up the divorce agreement read it carefully from beginning to end and was
01:17about to sign my name anna taylor think this through once you sign there's no turning back
01:25i didn't stop i quickly wrote my name down i'll pack my things and leave right now
01:33why the hell would i turn back in my previous life i thought bringing kelly home was just another
01:39one of his tricks to mess with me naively i believe that after all these years of marriage
01:44he must have had at least a little affection for me i was a fool he and kelly had kids
01:49one after
01:49another and grew old together in love and i in that house was like an awkward outsider not until
01:55my later years did i hear him talking with kelly in a hospital room he said that back then the
02:00dramatic scene of catching a guy in my bed had been arranged by him personally i was just tired of
02:05her and didn't want things to get too ugly so i staged the whole thing there wasn't a shred of
02:11guilt
02:11in his clotted eyes that way anything i did afterward seemed completely justified so that was it no
02:18wonder every time i desperately tried to explain all i got was his cold disbelief because from
02:23beginning to end he knew the truth he didn't love me yet he used a fabricated crime to trap me
02:29for 50
02:29years he could have ended it cleanly with one stroke but instead chose to slowly torture me to
02:34death looking at the young yet still cold face before me i felt nothing but hatred he stared blankly at
02:40the signed agreement his eyes filled with shock outside the door the faint sounds of whispering
02:46abruptly stopped my distinguished parents-in-law rushed in cheerfully my mother-in-law grabbed kelly's
02:54hand looking her up and down clicking her tongue in praise oh my look at her so young and so
03:00energetic
03:02my father-in-law who had always treated me with hostility was smiling kindly at this moment
03:07he shot me a pointed glance finally we can send away that useless one it's been so many years
03:13but there's no kid at all kelly lowered her head shyly pretending to be modest sir madam please don't
03:22say that i don't want to disrespect anna especially since i'm not much younger than madam anna she paused
03:29her face flushing actually i'm already one month pregnant it's just still early so i plan to tell
03:36you about it later i looked at her and frowned as expected still the same familiar sarcasm the same
03:43nauseating tone only this time i didn't care anymore all these years in order to be a useful wife i
03:50worked
03:50myself to the bone at carter group during the day at night i still had to serve these two picky
03:55bastards just past 30 yet plenty of white hair had already crept into my temples i did look kinda old
04:02i turned back to my room and began packing my pitiful little bit of luggage and i was already
04:07planning where i should go first to properly relax after getting the money didn't notice ryan following
04:12me in it's so late there's no need to move out immediately leave tomorrow isn't the villa in the west
04:19of the city still empty you can stay there for now i don't free to that you're fine anna you're
04:26just
04:26being emotional calm down i know how much you love me okay but i really can't let you be my
04:30legal wife
04:31anymore i can't let my child grow up being labeled as illegitimate i didn't respond i just picked up my
04:36suitcase walked past him and headed straight for the door there's nothing left to say between us i'm very
04:42happy we're divorced if you really still have a conscience hurry up and pay me what you owe the
04:48night wind carried fine snow as it rushed toward me biting cold yet unable to extinguish the fire
04:53burning in my heart ryan's efficiency was as always impressive when i woke up 3 billion was already in
05:02my bank account with the money the first thing i did was book harbor city's most luxurious private club
05:08haircut full body spa and everything the haggard woman with graying temples in the mirror was gone
05:14in her place stood a sharp-eyed beauty with flamboyant red hair just as i finished changing
05:18my best friend iris allen called she immediately burst into a fit of shouting anna taylor what's going
05:25on between you and ryan have you lost your minds what the hell happened i held the phone a little
05:31farther away and asked lazily what's wrong and you still ask what's wrong haven't you seen the news
05:37yourself the headlines are all the photos of ryan's a tinfully with nermosinals he said front to jesus
05:42that they bidges his lonely life even should they bail been quitting your snobby care me were right
05:47there too something that fidget deserves it her voice dropped filled with cautious concern well are you okay
05:54such recognition ryan had now given it to her i'm fine admiring my brand new look i spoke calmly we're
06:01already divorced iris didn't believe it she'd watched me love ryan for more than 10 years she watched me
06:10bend over backward for this marriage give up myself like a servant begging for scraps begging for scraps
06:16of affection i didn't explain further i just laughed and said are you free tonight let's go get a drink
06:23in harbor city's most extravagant bar the booths were piled high with the priciest wine several young
06:30handsome male models surrounded me attentively pouring drinks for me
06:36enjoy it iris stared at me holy i believe it now you really have let go you were never like
06:46this
06:46before back then to prove to ryan that i wasn't after money i calculated cost performance for
06:52everything i had been afraid he'd think i was wasteful or didn't care about the family now sitting
06:58in this luxurious private room i looked at the woman reflected in the mirrored glass the flamboyant red
07:03hair the perfectly tailored haute couture dress was strange yet familiar iris raised her glass and
07:09clinked it hard against mine you look a bit like that once in a century genius beauty from the finance
07:15department at ace university she downed a huge gulp of wine and then complained back then so many venture
07:22capital firms were fighting to invest in you if you'd started your own group you'd have crushed
07:29carter group long ago spending over a decade being a servant for his family and after the divorce you
07:34only got this much money girl i really think you deserve better i had been a servant for them for
07:40more than a decade in my previous life carter group under my control once dominated the national
07:46rankings as the strongest enterprise yet in my old age i couldn't even afford a box of painkillers
07:51in the end i was thrown out by kelly's children and died of illness beside a trash heap on a
07:56winter
07:56night the business empire i built with my entire life went to kelly and her children thinking of this
08:02i drained the wine in my glass in one go the spicy liquid burned down my throat yet ignited the
08:07fire deep
08:08in my heart i swore i would get back at them without me could they really live so well
08:15the very next day news of my group registration spread like wildfire stirring the entire circle
08:20some people sensed opportunity and rushed overnight with proposals hoping to invest but more people
08:27mocked and waited on the sidelines waiting for the carter family's reaction someone clearly gave
08:31instructions to the media so paparazzi articles were all belittling me for overestimating myself
08:36i looked at the push notifications on my phone and swiped them away expressionlessly
08:41i just didn't expect to receive a call from ryan anna can't you be a bit more understanding
08:47i've just found true love besides instead of starting some small broken group wouldn't it be
08:53better to stay at carter group that southern district merger you were handling before i hung
08:59up the phone directly as expected he had just remembered that i was still useful that southern
09:05district project was a tough nut i'd been working on for over half a year i drank until my stomach
09:10perforated for it without me carter group wouldn't even know where to start at carter group although
09:16i was the president my monthly salary was only one thousand dollars all because my distinguished father
09:21in law said we were family and shouldn't be so calculative i once naively believed that was his
09:26test for me now it seemed i was nothing more than an exceptionally capable yet ridiculously cheap house
09:31made they had recruited the more i thought about it the angrier i became i made up my mind at
09:36that time
09:37i would take over all those projects i brought to carter group in my previous life even if my new
09:42group couldn't deal with them i would personally hand them over to carter group's deadliest rivals
09:49after the call was cut off ryan slammed his phone to the ground in fury all these years he had
09:54grown
09:55used to my obedience expecting me to show up on command and disappear at his whim now that i'd hung
10:00up on
10:00him so decisively he felt really mad at that moment his special assistant awkwardly came in holding a
10:06stack of documents he couldn't even understand asking him to sign them days of exhaustion plus years of
10:12unfamiliarity with group affairs had left him truly overwhelmed lately kelly followed the assistant in
10:17took ryan's hand and said with eyes full of concern ryan don't work yourself too hard i'm your wife now
10:25let me help share your burden he hesitated somewhat uneasy you're still young and unfamiliar with group
10:31operations go rotate through the departments first kelly's eyes immediately reddened with grievance as
10:37she questioned him anna taylor could be the president why can't i ryan subconsciously wanted to say that at
10:44least anna was a top graduate from mace university's finance department but the moment he met kelly's eyes
10:49all his rationality was thrown away his heart softened and he just nodded kelly broke into a
10:55smile through her tears hugged him and said affectionately i'm just worried about you look
11:01at you you've lost so much weight lately less than half a month after my group started up everything
11:08was already running smoothly during this time kelly sent people over more than once to cause trouble
11:14just some petty tricks all of which i brushed aside with ease after all these years the connections i'd
11:19built were far beyond what a little girl like her could compare to those senior employees at carter
11:24group whom i personally trained had long wanted to leave after hearing i'd gone solo especially since
11:28after kelly started working there she kept suppressing them making their days suffocating i didn't rush to
11:34bring them over i had them stir up a little chaos before they left a small token of allegiance to
11:40me kelly
11:40thought losing a few people was no big deal even secretly rejoicing that she cleared out some remnants
11:45of me but she didn't understand some of them were critical for the group projects fell through one
11:50after another and carter group's stock price plunged again and again meanwhile on my side with capable
11:57team members we unleashed astonishing power consecutively landing several deals worth tens of millions
12:02standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in the conference room looking at the jubilant team below
12:07i announced loudly tonight at otk club it's all on me no one leaves sober awesome amid the thunderous cheers
12:15i led everyone out of the group building in a grand procession at the entrance a familiar black mercedes
12:21was parked quietly by the roadside the car door opened and ryan stepped out with an arrogant look
12:28waving at me i didn't even glance his way leading my people straight ahead his special assistant stopped
12:35me ryan followed his face openly showing displeasure and restrained anger anna taylor what do you mean
12:41didn't you see me you've really grown bold now a little impatient i looked at him coldly and said
12:47sir do you need something he seemed slightly taken aback by my attitude but still got straight to the
12:53point issuing an order shut down your group and come back to carter group i was so angered by his
12:59self-righteousness that i laughed he took my laughter as hesitation and his tone softened a little anna
13:06i've really been exhausted lately don't keep fighting with me okay he paused as if making a
13:13huge concession if you really mind kelly i can have her move somewhere else for now looking at this
13:19pompous man before me i couldn't help but question my own judgment back then i'm not throwing a tantrum
13:25mr ryan we're already divorced please don't interfere with my life anymore i've already
13:31compromised what more do you want the group needs you right now and you choose this moment to put on
13:37airs i suddenly felt there was no reasoning with him at all in his world everyone was supposed to
13:43revolve around him if you've got any issues sir why don't you go bother your precious wife kelly smith
13:48i'm just an outsider i have no obligation to clean up your mess he seemed to have realized something and
13:54sad you care about the status anna once kelly gives birth i'll think about it but you have to promise
14:01me no going public i don't want kelly to be hurt i stared at him enunciating every word i'll say
14:09it
14:09one last time get lost don't let me see you again i'm never getting back together with you ever ryan's
14:17face darkened with rage anna taylor don't push your luck don't forget this is harbor city if i want
14:24to crush a low tier little group like yours it's easy as pie oh mr ryan sure has a bad
14:30temper
14:34not only openly harassing my fiance but also threatening to destroy her group ryan turned
14:40his head and was totally stunned it was alex white another rich young man and ryan's nemesis alex
14:47strolled over lazily and naturally wrapped an arm around my waist leaning his head intimately
14:51against my shoulder darling i've been waiting in the parking lot forever turns out you were here
14:56stopped by a bastard ryan trembled with fury pointing at me anna taylor give me an explanation
15:03why did you betray me then as if he suddenly figured something out he put on a smug all-knowing
15:09expression
15:11i get it now you're acting aren't you you deliberately found alex to piss me off
15:16alex rolled his eyes dramatically and dragged me away let's just not waste time with him
15:22stop right there ryan tried to chase after us but he was too agitated and with his recent chaotic
15:28schedule his abdomen suddenly seized with sharp pain he doubled over in pain clutching his stomach cold
15:35sweat beating on his forehead anna my stomach hurts i didn't slow down in fact i walked even faster
15:41not turning my head even once behind me were his suppressed groans of pain and his assistant's panicked
15:47screams alex didn't give me any chance to look back he directly shoved me into the passenger seat of
15:55his flashy red ferrari the sports car roared out of the parking lot only then did he take off his
16:00sunglasses and smile at me sideways well not bad acting right i didn't speak just watched the cityscape
16:07speeding passed outside the window hey anna don't be so indifferent he nudged me lightly with his elbow
16:15i helped you out you know not even a thank you thank you i kept it brief he pouted clearly
16:22dissatisfied with my coldness but he didn't say more only turned up the volume of the car music
16:27that very night the headlines of harbor city's financial and entertainment sections were all
16:32dominated by ryan carter hashtag carter group president chasing former love suffer stomach
16:37spasms and his hospitalized hashtag the accompanying photos showed him being taken into an ambulance by
16:43his assistant and bodyguards the comments section exploded some mocked ryan for bringing it on himself
16:49saying he should have expected this day back when he flaunted his mistress others claimed kelly smith
16:54was inferior to me which was why ryan turned back and that the two of us would soon remarry
16:59in the vip ward of harbor city first hospital kelly smith eyes bloodshot grabbed the glass cup from
17:04the bedside table and smashed it viciously onto the floor shards flying everywhere why did you go to find
17:10her why she glared fiercely at the pale-faced ryan on the hospital bed didn't you say having me alone
17:16was enough the sharp shattering sound startled ryan and a dull ache crept through his abdomen he rubbed
17:23his temples tiredly even opening his eyes feeling like an effort his voice was very light what are you
17:29yelling for i went to see her for group matters group matters are group matters more important than me
17:37kelly rushed to the bedside her eyes filled with obsessive possessiveness i don't care you swear right
17:44now promise you'll never go see anna taylor again never
17:52ryan was irritated and flustered he suddenly shoved her away shut up if you hadn't messed
17:59the group up so badly would i need to warnin lower myself to go beg her his voice shot up
18:05sharply tinged
18:06with hysteria but then the ward door was pushed open ryan's mother walked in carrying a thermal food
18:14container when she saw the mess all over the floor and her son's pale face her anger instantly
18:19flared kelly smith you're really becoming more and more outrageous she slammed the container heavily
18:25onto the table can't you see ryan isn't feeling well why are you still yelling at him if anna were
18:32here she'd have already gone home to make dinner for ryan by now you only know how to make a
18:37scene
18:39anna taylor you're talking about her again letting out a cold snort i'm not her i don't want to do
18:46that kind of servant work she crossed her arms over her chest and stubbornly talked back what do you
18:52mean there's no mother poor inset towels i maybe have to go up myself i think you just pick on
18:57fight
18:57and girly you know how i stack i'm parrying your grandson you don't want him anymore how dare you talk
19:05back what have you ever done for ryan other than spending money and causing trouble what else did you
19:12do what trouble did i cause get out both of you get out ryan forced himself upright grabbed the pillow
19:22by the bed and hurled it at them with all his strength get out now the ward fell into dead
19:29silence in an
19:30instant ryan's mother and kelly were both stunned ryan collapsed weakly back onto the bed burying his
19:35face into the blanket as suppressed sobs seeped out muffled this was the first time he regretted it
19:40regretted divorcing anna when anna was around the group never had any problems and the household was
19:47always in perfect order anna would arrange everything properly and ryan could just enjoy his life
19:54but now because of several useless relatives kelly had stuffed into the group accidents happened again
20:00and again and several projects had already been cancelled by the time he realized something was
20:05wrong most of the capable backbones in the group had already left and his parents who once praised
20:10kelly non-stop now constantly complained and expressed dissatisfaction life seemed to have gone back to
20:16years ago when his group was on the brink of bankruptcy besieged on all sides the difference was
20:21back then when he turned around i was always there don't be afraid you've got me but now behind him
20:29there was no one at all a few days later the contract with the white group was officially signed
20:35this was the biggest deal i'd landed since leaving carter group it meant my small group had finally
20:40gained a firm foothold alex white attended in person after signing he tossed the pen aside and smiled
20:46brightly at me president anna to celebrate our successful cooperation how about
20:51dinner together i looked at his handsome face and declined politely
20:57no i still have something to do tonight his smile faded he leaned forward bracing his hands on the
21:04table anna taylor how long are you going to keep running you clearly know what i mean
21:11ever since that day in the parking lot when he helped me out alex white had launched a fierce pursuit
21:15flowers gifts and endless invitations it was impossible to ignore but i remained distant the entire time
21:24mr alex if you're just trying to provoke ryan there's really no need to waste your effort on me
21:28alex looked at me with his big eyes he suddenly smiled with a touch of childish pride i'm not that
21:34boring i
21:35really do like you his gaze was far too intense i subconsciously stepped back but he grabbed my
21:43sleeve alex's fingers were long and warm he gently shook my arm and softened his voice come on just
21:49give me a chance have dinner with me okay he winked playfully at me and lowered his voice i'll tell
21:57you a secret about ryan i wanted to say no but unconsciously agreed both of us were startled
22:07the receptionist then hurried in anxiously president anna i'm sorry this gentleman insisted on barging in
22:14we couldn't stop him i waved my hand signaling her to step out first the uninvited guests were right
22:20behind the receptionist the one in front sat in a wheelchair which was ryan only a few days had
22:26passed yet he looked as if all vitality had been drained from him his face sallow and his eye socket
22:30sunken and i'm here to take you home i looked at him not feeling sorry for him but only mad
22:37at him for
22:38interrupting me i reached out and pressed the internal line on the desk security please come
22:45here and take these uninvited people out ryan looked kind of stunned he probably hadn't expected me to be
22:51this ruthless his eyes instantly reddened anna taylor how can you treat me like this i've already thought
22:57it through these past few days most suitable for each other i've already brought up divorce with kelly smith
23:04i don't have any feelings for you anymore who you marry or divorce has nothing to do with me
23:10please don't come disturb my life again i don't want to be your servant anymore the decisiveness in
23:15my words left his face full of hurt we've been married for so many years remember you won't even
23:21give me one chance he stared at me in disbelief until he confirmed that there was only indifference left
23:27in my eyes only then did he understand i wasn't saying this out of spite he stopped faking tears
23:34anna taylor don't forget if i hadn't sponsored you back then you would even have been able to go to
23:39college now you're leaving me after your achievement i don't want much
23:47just help me hold carter group together for five years all right at last he pulled out this trunk card
23:55the so-called debt of gratitude had weighed me down for a full 10 years
23:58i fell silent at the moment i hesitated a warm hand covered the back of my hand
24:04alex had somehow come to stand beside me ryan carter do you have no shame at all
24:09his voice was clear with undisguised contempt using my credit to blackmail others
24:14how can you be so utterly shameless alex white why are you here
24:22why can't i be here if i weren't i wouldn't have known that you've been taking my credit
24:29using my kindness to threaten the woman i love you you're talking nonsense shut up
24:36i did sponsor her is that so alex took out his phone and presented it to me
24:42anna see for yourself then through an anonymous charitable organization to your accounts from
24:48high school through university the one who sponsored you was always me
24:53my mind buzzed turning completely blank on the screen rows of transfer records were displayed with
24:59crystal clarity dates and amounts every single one matched exactly the scholarships i had received
25:05back then the recipient account was my high school financial aid fund account and the designated
25:09beneficiary was anna taylor in both my past and present lives i had always believed it was ryan
25:17in my freshman year he had taken the initiative to find me and told me he was the anonymous sponsor
25:22because of that debt of gratitude i was deeply thankful to him and after graduation threw myself
25:28into his group without hesitation it was also because of that gratitude that i developed feelings for
25:33him even when he trampled my dignity time and time again i endured it because of that supposed
25:38kindness i thought it was something i owed him so from the very beginning it had all been a lie
25:43brian
25:44looked terrible but he still wanted to make a final i stayed by your side for four years in college
25:49and always encouraged you doesn't that count as emotional support then he tried to move me again
25:57yeah i didn't sponsor you financially but we were husband and wife for 10 years
26:02isn't that bond enough for you to help me just once have you forgotten how you used to love me
26:10i promise i won't care about your past affair anymore you forgive me this once too
26:16we can still live a happy life together okay
26:21i almost laughed from sheer anger at this point he was still trying to bind me with his twisted logic
26:28ryan carter do you really think i'm an idiot my voice wasn't loud but it froze the air in the
26:33entire
26:33conference room back then i sobered up from after the man in my bed was sent by you
26:40even i drug the glass of water those prepared by you chinser wasn't it ryan's face instantly turned
26:45deathly pale i shook my head in disappointment the last shred of lingering feeling in my heart turning to
26:51ashes the thing i regret most in this life is being with a man like you full of lies those
26:56words became the
26:57final straw that crushed him he slumped weakly in his wheelchair tears rolling down in big drops
27:03no it's not like that how can you regret it you love me you clearly love me
27:13at that moment the security guards who had arrived late finally broke through ryan's black suited bodyguards
27:19together with the wheelchair they pushed the whole group out the world finally became quiet
27:24in the conference room only alex white and i remained and it was super awkward he didn't look at me
27:31his
27:31gaze drifting to the patterns on the carpet well i still have some things to deal with at my group
27:37i'll head out first after saying that he turned around wait i grabbed his wrist didn't you say we
27:45were going to have dinner i didn't mean to use this to pressure you don't misunderstand if you don't like
27:51me you don't have to force yourself to be with me just because i sponsored you seeing his awkward yet
27:57proud demeanor i wasn't so upset anymore i couldn't help but laugh a bit i won't i softened my tone
28:04still
28:05holding his wrist i just really really want to have a meal with you i looked into his eyes and
28:12asked again
28:13seriously so mr alex would you like to under my gaze his cheeks grew redder and redder and then he
28:21nodded
28:21gently to prevent ryan from coming back to pester me again i threw a few obstacles into some of carter
28:28group's overseas projects i didn't intend to do anything drastic to carter group i just wanted to
28:34keep him busy keep him from bothering me but the foundation of carter group had long rotted my small
28:40move was merely the first domino to fall carter group's stock price plunged without warning several
28:46major projects under negotiation blew up one after another partners withdrew their investments and the
28:51capital chain snapped on the spot when the first domino fell the whole thing wouldn't last for long
