During the fifth year of my union with Silas, information surfaced about a young woman he had been secretly meeting at a hotel. This revelation became widely known. To shield her from being branded as a mistress, Silas approached me with divorce documents, explaining, "Professor Simon assisted me in the past. On his deathbed, he requested that I look after Jane. Given recent events, I can't disregard this responsibility." Throughout the years, Jane had consistently been Silas's primary concern. In my former existence, upon hearing these words, I collapsed emotionally and threw an enormous tantrum, refusing to end our marriage.

Roses, Lies, and a Debt of Gratitude

Information spreads rapidly once it hits social media platforms.


On the third day of Silas's chase after me, Kieran emailed Silas proof of Jane falsifying medical records. He also gathered evidence of Silas repeatedly neglecting me for Jane over time, creating a comprehensive story, and shared it online.


Within hours, public sentiment divided, but I no longer cared.


Some people claimed Jane was exploiting gratitude to destroy my marriage with Silas, causing our relationship to crumble.


Others argued that Silas was insincere. If he truly wanted to repay Jane's father's kindness, couldn't he have done so with money and resources? Why did he need to mistreat his wife and push her towards despair and divorce?
