Seven years into my marriage with Adrian Heath—the richest man in the city—a video of him and his old flame, Yvette Briggs, surfaced online. Afraid she’d be torn apart by gossip, Adrian insisted on divorcing me, who was pregnant at that time, so he could give Yvette her rightful status, and the baby in her belly a complete family. In my previous life, I had wept, pleaded, and raged, only to be cast out in disgrace and die cold and alone on the streets. After I time-travelled to the beginning of this event, I signed the divorce papers, took half of his assets, and quietly went to the hospital for an abortion. Adrian believed I was still the same woman, who loved him desperately, who was foolish enough to bear his child and wait for him to return. To prove his devotion to Yvette, he even had a vasectomy, so her child would be the only one he ever had. But when Adrian finally learned the truth, he went mad.
