In my previous life, I was merely a supporting character, highlighting Damon’s deep love for another woman. Tragically, my story unfolded with devastating consequences, leaving my family in ruins and my life shattered. Upon my rebirth, I chose to adopt a carefree attitude, ignoring the situation and waiting for Damon to ask for a divorce. But something peculiar happened.

His joke got me laughing. We were chatting along, and out of the blue, he asked, "Eliana, when are you coming back? I've saved a portion of my salary. I'd like to treat you to a meal or get you a small gift, I can't afford anything too extravagant at the moment though"
