My childhood sweetheart, Paul Anderson, fell for Janet Cameron, the daughter of the maid who lived with his family. He was dead set on breaking off our engagement. His mother, unwilling to let go of the Finch family's influence, took it upon herself to send Janet away. But Paul blamed me for it all. Later, he left the entertainment industry for love, inherited the company, and the very first thing he did was come after me for revenge. Paul said, "Back then, you were throwing your weight around, using my mother to drive Janet away. Now, I want you to know what it feels like to be cornered with no way out." He said it all so self-righteously, completely disregarding the seven years we'd been married. Janet was the reason I died. When my asthma flared up, she snatched my inhaler away on purpose, leaving me to suffocate right in front of her. When I came to, I found myself back on the day Paul was determined to call off our engagement.
