Her husband committed adultery with her dearest companion—a woman who was once Bridget’s sole confidante, now carrying the child of Bridget’s own spouse. Yet confronted with the grotesque betrayal, Bridget neither screamed nor wept. Instead, she offered a chill, placid smile:
“Congratulations on your pregnancy, Penelope. Tell me, is the child in your womb my husband’s?”
Her composure masks a chilling resolve born from a tragic first life. But vengeance against the traitors is only half her burden. There is also Julian—her former lover whom she once adored with every fiber of her soul, yet was forced to abandon under agonizing, unspoken circumstances. Reunited in this second life, Julian harbors nothing but cold fury:
“Now that you stand before me, I have no choice but to kill you, traitor.”
He has no intention of granting her forgiveness, yet saving him from his grim fate is the true trial of this second chance. Granted a miraculous rebirth, Bridget vows to accomplish everything she once failed to do—even if the entire world brands her a villainess.
