In my previous life, I was married to Lucas Bennett for eight years. Our relationship was polite, but distant. To support his dream of becoming a painter, I gave up my own ambitions. But as life got harder, Lucas grew resentful. He finally snapped, telling me, "If I had listened to Isabelle back then and gone abroad with her, I wouldn't be stuck in this miserable life." Fate gave us a chance to start over. We both woke up before our relationship began. This time, I chose to let him go. We silently deleted each other from our contacts and went our separate ways. He went overseas to find his cherished Isabelle. I stayed behind, dedicating myself to my work in the lab. Eight years later, we met again. He looked down on me, sneering at how "pathetic" my life seemed. But his composure shattered when a little girl ran up, calling me "Mommy." He demanded, furious and hurt, "How could you have a child with another man?"
