Conrad and I actually had some fond memories together.

Before Kelly showed up, Conrad would always accompany me to set off fireworks on my birthday.

When I was younger, I didn't know that wishing was supposed to be done silently, so I would always say my wishes out loud.

In just a few days, whatever I wished for would appear, sent over by the Reeses.

As I grew older, I stopped saying my wishes out loud, but Conrad always managed to learn my preferences from my friends.

By the time I arrived at Serenity Park, he was already there.

Just one glance, and I knew my guess had been right.

The old Conrad, who was like a fresh, naive young calf, was completely different from the current powerful chairman who had been reborn.

His gaze alone was enough to show that.

"Shirley, it's been many years since we came here."

He gazed out at the deep, endless cliff.

At this hour, naturally, no one was setting off fireworks.

"I remember the year you slid down from there," he said, p

    So this was the "true love" he always spoke of. The man in front of me wasn't just the Conrad who had killed me five years later in my past life.Back then, when he killed me, his face was pale. Now, he didn't even flinch when he cut the rope. I clenched my fists. "Does that feel satisfying?" I turned my gaze away. "Shirley, I know I was wrong. All these years, I've regretted every day. I've done so much for you—" "Shut up!" I didn't want to hear another word from him. Conrad's eyes grew darker. Then, he smiled again. "2:00 AM. Were you waiting for this moment?" 2:00 AM, the time the coroner had declared Jonathan's death in my previous life. "Shirley, do you think that since the Harmons aren't backing me, you can win with a disabled Horace by your side? I'll show you who's winning and who's losing today!" Conrad dragged me into the car and headed straight for the Reeses' residence. As soon as we entered the gate, Conrad's phone rang. He picked it up, and

    The rain fell heavily as spring turned to summer.It felt eerily similar to the day I died.The prison was cold and damp.Conrad had lost a lot of weight. His hands were shackled, and he wore thin prison clothes as he sat across from me through the glass. It wasn't supposed to be this messy. But he had been rebirthed, using ruthless methods to win over the Reeses' subordinates. Jonathan was so disappointed in him that he refused to see him before his death.Yes, despite going to the best hospitals, seeing the best doctors, and using the best medications, Jonathan's life had only been extended by three months.When Conrad saw me sitting across from him, his eyes lit up. He reached out through the glass, trying to touch my hand. The cold barrier separated us."Shirley, you still can't forgive me." I couldn't help but laugh. "Shirley, it's been so hard, but we've both been reborn. This is a chance the heavens have given us to start over..." "I don't see it that way. Maybe we were b

    On the day Horace took control, he transferred all of his shares to my name. As per our agreement, we would manage Reese Enterprise together, and I would hold half of the shares. But it seemed I had misjudged him. He wasn't exactly passionate about being the chairman. At first, he humbly claimed that his health was poor and his energy low, so my dad should represent him fully. Eventually, he stopped coming to the office altogether.To be honest, I enjoyed discussing business with him. It was always a pleasure talking to someone sharp. Six months later, I found out I was pregnant. He seemed to care even less about the company then, often following me wherever I went. Whenever I asked, he'd reassure me, saying my father was handling everything, so I shouldn't worry. Tsk. I couldn't believe had once called him "ambitious". The baby came without any problems—it was a boy. Horace was overjoyed, spending all his time with him, hardly letting go. Once our son started kindergarten, I star

    I died on a rainy day. The vibrant maple leaves, usually scattered across the mountainside, were nowhere to be seen because Conrad Reese couldn't wait any longer. I tumbled down the steps, blood pooling beneath me. But he wasn't satisfied. He shoved me down the stairs again and again, each time more forcefully. The pain was so intense that I could barely make a sound, but I still couldn't help but ask, "Why… are you doing this?" I didn't understand. Our families had always been close, and Conrad and I grew up together. For over a decade, my family had supported him in securing his position as the heir. But he set a trap, pulling my father into it, leading to the destruction of my family and my father's death from a heart attack. "Why, Conrad?" I gripped his clothes, desperate. Conrad's face was pale, almost ghostly, and though he was the one who ruined my family, his expression made it seem as if I was the one who had wronged him. "This is what you all owe Kelly,

    I looked up and saw Conrad walking toward me, surrounded by a crowd. As he approached, the whispers of the crowd immediately ceased. Conrad and I had grown up together. When we were five or six, our families arranged an engagement between us. Whenever anyone bullied me, he was always the first to stand up for me. When he made a mistake and got punished, I was the first to plead for him. Until now, no one had ever doubted that I was Conrad's true love. But today, on my 22nd birthday, he brought another woman with him. Kelly was thin and delicate, a fragile little flower standing close to his side. Conrad smiled, speaking affectionately in her ear. She looked at me, her face instantly panicked and flustered. She quickly stepped forward, bowing to me in a deep ninety-degree gesture. It was exactly the same as in my previous life. Even the single teardrop hanging from her eyelash was identical. In my last life, it was this pitiful, helpless look that had bewitched

    His words almost tricked me. As the daughter of the Harmons, I'd always been cautious and reserved. I had to consider my parents and the family; I couldn't just give everything up for one person. We both missed one important possibility. Whether Conrad was poisoned or drugged, Kelly's intentions were clear from the start. She had planned to climb her way into his life from the very beginning."Enough!" Conrad snapped. The room fell silent. Kelly trembled, slowly looking up, her eyes filled with pleading. The message was clear. She had ruined my engagement and turned me into a joke in front of everyone—she felt guilty. If I didn't say anything, she wouldn't stop. Fine. Let her keep going. I raised an eyebrow and continued sipping my wine. Kelly gritted her teeth, preparing to grovel again. Conrad suddenly stepped forward, slapping my wine glass out of my hand. "Shirley, don't go too far!" "Shirley, is this how the Harmons taught you to behave?" Conrad

    By evening, the news had spread through the circle.The engagement between the Harmons and the Reeses was probably over.Conrad had already caused a stir by publicly calling off the wedding in front of the media.Today, the heiress of the Harmons had actually called off the engagement at her own birthday party, in front of everyone.It was rumored that Conrad's expression at that moment was quite something.The head of the Reeses family had picked up a teapot and smashed it over his head, blood spilling everywhere."You bloody brat!"I stood nearby, water splashing all over me."Who told you to make a scene outside?" My dad was furious. "Calling off the engagement, huh? This was already agreed upon long ago by your grandpa and the Reeses! How dare you announce that you're breaking it off in front of everyone!"I straightened my back, not batting an eye."We're currently working with the Reeses. If you call off the engagement now, what will happen to the project we're working on? You'd

    I wasn't sure what kind of shock Conrad went through, but after he went home, he ended up sick. There was no more drama from the Reeses. But back at my place, preparations for my wedding with Horace kept us busy. One day, as I was calculating my dowry, an unexpected visitor arrived. Kelly, seeing me, immediately fell into a pitiful state, crying uncontrollably. "Ms. Harmon, please go see Mr. Conrad!" I turned to the side, pulling my skirt away from her reach. "Ms. Harmon, Mr. Conrad is really sick, and he won't wake up. He keeps calling your name in his sleep. You need to see him; maybe he'll wake up!" I looked down at her, not interested in responding. "Ms. Harmon, you and Mr. Conrad grew up together. Please, just go see him!" Kelly bowed again. "I'm sorry I was greedy! If you agree, I'll only be Mr. Reese's lover, and I'll never come to you again! Please, I beg you!" I frowned, and just then, a sharp voice rang out from beside me. "Are the security guards just

    I was going to expose Kelly's fake suicide attempt. Conrad had always been firm in his belief that Kelly's love for him was pure and flawless. In the past life, Kelly had tricked him into returning to the country, and afterward, he simply sighed. "Kelly just cares too much about me." But in this life, no one was there to clean up his mess. I wonder if he would still say such a thing now. Horace had already planted some people in Conrad's company, setting a little trap to make Kelly slip up. It wasn't difficult. I had planned to use the overseas project to scare her a little. But before I could even start, someone walked right into the trap. I heard that evening, that Conrad, feeling down after being scolded by netizens, his subordinates, and Jonathan, was in a terrible mood. He hadn't been to the house belonging to him and Kelly in five days. On the roof of the company building, cameras with perfect resolution had already been installed, covering every angle. Th

    Before Conrad tried to kill me, he had said a lot of things.But it had been hurting so much that I couldn't remember everything clearly.The one thing that stuck with me was, "If it weren't for you, if it weren't for the Harmons, Kelly and I could've been together forever!"Well, the Harmons and I weren't in his way in this life. I'd love to see how he and Kelly would grow old together.In the teahouse, the air was thick with the fragrance of tea."The overseas project ran into issues. Mr. Conrad going abroad to handle it was a good thing, but… is it appropriate to bring that secretary along?""Why not? The secretary... Ms. Dunn and Mr. Conrad haven't married yet, but they've already announced their engagement!""I hear she's an excellent business management graduate—maybe she can be of some help!"There was always gossip floating around in any company."Is this the 'show' you were talking about?"This time, Conrad went abroad, taking his fiancée, the secretary, along.The whole comp
