In my last life, Jenna and Bradley knew each other. Yet, Jenna dared not act so brazenly in front of everyone. She would only pull some tricks while keeping them discreet.
It was no wonder almost everyone knew about her relationship with Bradley in just two to three days’ time now.
My eyes hardened as I recalled my previous life.
After I married into the Garvin family, Garvin Corporation’s business flourished. The company even made it into Forbes’ list of top global companies.
The elders of the Garvin family approved of me and said that I brought their family good luck. Although Bradley treated me coldly, the warmth I received from the Garvin family’s elders still made me feel happy and content.
That was until I broke the box, shattering all of the illusions.
Someone pushed the door open. My mother told me that Terrence Garvin would be coming back soon.
I froze and remained silent.
It seemed like my mother had something else to say. In the end, she merely sighed and walked away.
There was no way my mother was unaware of what was happening in my previous life. Yet, she had never said anything about it to me.
While the Garvin family’s elders showed me favor, they did not feel much attachment to me. Otherwise, they would not have helped Bradley keep his secrets hidden.
Terrence was the only exception. He was an anomaly among the Garvins.
In my previous life, Terrence settled down abroad and remained single his whole life. I could not recall much about him. Still, I remembered how he would often show his concern for me. Terrence would even scold Bradley and remind him to treat me better.
That was why I chose to marry him this time. I figured he would be a better choice as compared to me marrying a total stranger.
Truthfully, I was not exactly that optimistic about it. I did not think the person who held actual power and authority in the Garvin family would agree to such a casual marriage proposal.
Yet, things went much smoother than how I had imagined it to be. My mother told me that Terrence merely took a short pause before agreeing to the marriage proposal.
Early morning the next day, I arrived at the office to finish up a proposal. The proposal was my wedding gift to Terrence.
