Chapter 1

The day it went viral online that I’d cheated on my husband, everyone assumed Ethan Vance would divorce me.

Yet, he calmly went on a trip with his mistress.

When asked about it, he spoke nonchalantly.

“Ten years ago, I jumped from the third story of the school building to pursue Anastasia Reed, and broke a leg. She called me a pathetic simp, unworthy of love.”

“Ten years later, I’ve ruined her. I’ve trapped her in the marital prison she hates most, making her life a living hell.”

“I don’t love her anymore, so how could I care if she cheats?”

His words were recorded and sent to me. A thirty-million dollar wager was placed, betting I'd beg for forgiveness within a day.

Instead, I calmly dialed the hospital’s body donation program.

Ethan didn’t know that on the day he confessed his love to me ten years ago, I dropped out of school and vanished because I’d been diagnosed with a rare disease.

Doctors had given me countless death sentences, but my love for him pulled me through time and again.

Now, I no longer loved him.

A marital prison couldn’t hold a dead woman.
