~|| Chapter: 1 ||~
My husband of twelve years had an affair.
The night I discovered this, my two children and I were burned to death in our home.
When I opened my eyes again, Gu Yuanzhou was standing beside me.
A sadness hit me. I threw myself at him like a madwoman and grabbed his arm,
“Yuanzhou, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that our children Zhenyi and Xiaoyi died in a fire…”
Gu Yuanzhou’s fiery dark eyes stared at me, as if he were looking at a demon, and he shook me off violently.
“Get out!”
Before I could react, his secretary rushed in and took me outside without uttering a word,
“Are you fucking insane? What’s the matter with you, marching straight into the CEO’s office? Don’t you know that President Gu just lost his wife and kids? You’re poking at his wound, are you asking for trouble?”
I was dazed by the secretary’s scolding.
I suddenly looked up and saw my own reflection in the changing room mirror.
There was a young girl in her twenties, wearing a small suit, a work badge on her chest, and an innocent face.
This face wasn’t mine, but a young employee named Song Xiaoyun’s.
And I… I was reincarnated as her.
I unlocked my phone and news headlines flooded in, all about the fire-gutted Golden Bay villa and the scene of my children being carried out of the fire.
I dared not watch, nor could I listen.
Because each word could turn into a sharp blade, piercing my heart into pieces.
I don’t understand why the heavens allowed me to be reborn.
The feeling of unbearable pain made me wish I could join my children in the other world right then and there.
It was not until I saw a different news headline from all the others.
The president of Zhenyi Group, Gu Yuanzhou, has another family on the side, and in order to legitimize his mistress, he hired a killer to set his wife on fire…
This news struck me like a thunderbolt.
It woke me out of my suffering.
On the day of the fire, our nanny, who usually takes care of us, suddenly went home on leave. Late at night, after Gu Yuanzhou gave me a glass of milk, he said he had a business matter to attend to and left.
Just as the fire started, the automatic sprinkler system in the villa malfunctioned, allowing the fire to spread. It cornered my children and me, but Gu Yuanzhou’s phone was always engaged.
Was all this coincidence, or…
With that thought, I suddenly recalled my best friend Wenya once hinted at me: Xiaoyun, have you ever doubted your husband?
Back then, I did not have a single doubt about Gu Yuanzhou and naturally didn’t pick up on the hint.
But now, thinking about it, she might have known something.
With this thought, I made up my mind to go see her.
Once I got off work at noon, I took a taxi straight to A University to find Wenya.
I rushed all the way and unexpectedly bumped into someone.
It was a young female university student, my bag was knocked to the ground, and my wallet and work card scattered everywhere.
