Chapter 1
After my boyfriend Christopher Harrington and I were both reborn, we tacitly understood each other without saying a word -neither of us brought up the idea of staying together.
He followed his first love to New York for work, while I stayed in my hometown,
Five years later, leveraging his past–life experience, he quickly became an industry leader and even had a beautiful girlfriend.
Meanwhile, I stayed by my parents‘ side, living peacefully in my Texas hometown.
When we met again, he had his arm around the stunning Madison Blair, a cigar between his lips as he looked at plainly–dressed me with a mocking smile. “Haven’t seen you in five years–how did you become such a mess?”
I ignored him.
Later, when a business mogul held me tenderly in his arms, the usually composed and steady Christopher panicked.
“Olivia, how can you marry another man?”

When I arrived exhausted, I heard someone teasing him from inside the private room.
“Christopher, you’re amazing–you even managed to win over Madison.”
“Of course he’s amazing! Christopher’s so successful in the big city, us small–town folks can’t compare.”
“But I heard that back in the day, you and Olivia…”
My hand froze as I was about to open the door.
“You two used to study together all the time back then, and everyone said you were a couple. Christopher, aren’t you worried Madison will get jealous?”
In that moment, I heard that familiar voice. Christopher said in a casual tone, “Olivia and I were just classmates. Don’t make things up.”
I smiled coldly. It had been five years since we were reborn.
Naturally, his words no longer stirred any emotions in me, so I calmly pushed open the door.
Even though we hadn’t seen each other in ten years, I recognized Christopher immediately.

He sat on the sofa with a cigar between his lips, Madison–our school’s beauty queen–leaning against him.
Almost all our classmates had gathered around them, the couple surrounded by everyone.
The moment I pushed through the door, all eyes turned to me.
Kevin Sinclair, our high school class president, was as enthusiastic as ever.
“Hey there, Olivia
Hearing my name, Christopher looked up at me. He had his arm around Madison, his gaze flippant.
After taking in my appearance, his expression turned disdainful.
I’d rushed out today, and because of my pregnancy, I wasn’t wearing makeup and had dressed casually. I probably looked somewhat haggard.
Compared to me, Madison looked exceptionally polished.
She wore a designer suit, carried a Hermès bag, and had flawless makeup–she looked like someone who was well taken care of.
I didn’t care about her and greeted them graciously. “Long time no see.”

Christopher nodded indifferently. Madison just smiled briefly without looking at me.
I naturally couldn’t be bothered to please people who didn’t appreciate it, so I turned and walked over to some classmates I was more familiar with.
We’re just missing Quentin now,” Kevin suddenly said. “He just texted me saying not to wait for him.”
All our classmates sat around the dining table, toasting Christopher and Madison, flattering him.
After a while, I got up to use the restroom. As I came out, I ran into Christopher, his face flushed red from alcohol.
He looked at me mockingly. “Olivia, how did you become such a mess in these five years without me?
