My wife made me get a vasectomy. Not once, but ninety-nine times. Right before the hundredth operation, the doctor looked at me with pity in his eyes as the anesthesia failed to fully kick in. "Ms. Gibson really knows how to destroy a man," he murmured. "She's put him through ninety-nine vasectomies, then had them reversed—again and again. However, his body's long since broken. There's no chance of children now." "It's probably for her ex. Word is, it's his own brother. The scandals in these wealthy families—unbelievable." Because of a hospital mix-up at birth, my and Jeff Cunningham's fates were exchanged. He grew up with the Cunningham family, while I lived a poor life. Years later, my parents found the truth, taking me in and sending Jeff away. To make things worse, I became Wynnie Gibson's new fiancé. I once asked her, barely able to speak through the pain, why she would marry someone she did not love. She looked at me calmly. "To get revenge," she said. "You came home and stole Jeff's place. He was the one I love. He drank himself to death after you returned." Even my biological parents knew she was poisoning me. However, they turned a blind eye. They did nothing to stop her. They knew Wynnie had got pregnant with Jeff's child through IVF—planning to raise the child and let him inherit the family fortune. I coughed up blood and threw myself into the sea. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day I was first reunited with them. This time, when I saw the sorrow in their eyes—sorrow not for me, but for the son they lost— I chose to let them go.

"Lina spent ten years following the gifted researcher Arthur, from silently admiring him to becoming his fiancée. But she gradually realized that Arthur had only agreed to marry her out of guilt after the kidnapping case, while his true patience, closeness, and indulgence were all reserved for Mia, the daughter of his mentor. On the eve of the wedding, Lina applied for a transfer to the Western Research Center, sold the house under her own name, and for the first time explicitly refused to keep cleaning up Arthur’s life. When Mia passed off research results that Lina had helped complete as her own, Arthur not only publicly vouched for Mia, but also pulled Lina out of the venue and tried to buy her silence with a kiss. Lina ended the engagement completely, withdrew the data she had organized, handed the original records over to the research institute, and after completing the handover, left for the west alone. Only after the wedding was canceled and Lina disappeared entirely from his life and work did Arthur realize that he had long treated her devotion as a permanent given. In the west, Lina threw herself back into research and fieldwork, and gradually regained her self-respect and her life through the candid yet measured companionship of Leon, a geology researcher. After the research institute clarified the attribution of the paper, Mia was expelled, and Arthur traveled west to apologize and express his regret, but he could not change Lina’s decision. After enduring sandstorms, emergency equipment repairs, and a landslide rescue, Lina completely let go of the old relationship, built a new life of mutual growth with Leon, and reaffirmed the value of her career through her own desert ecology research."

Ivy Shaw knew from the very beginning that the marriage certificate she and Noah Grant held was fake. But during their five years together, Noah had given her so much tenderness that she mistakenly believed she had finally exchanged sincerity for sincerity. It was not until she woke up once in the middle of a coma that she overheard Noah talking to his private doctor: the strange illness she had suffered every month all these years had been caused by Noah drugging her and drawing her blood, and he had stayed by her side only to use her blood to treat her half-sister, Chloe. Another hospital soon confirmed that prolonged blood loss and medication had caused multiple organ failure, and that she had at most a month left to live. Ivy no longer argued, and no longer waited for Noah to turn back. She relocated her mother’s grave, arranged her own burial plot and funeral, and even designated her father Richard and Noah as her pallbearers. But until the very last day of her life, Noah still chose Chloe again and again, and even ordered someone to destroy Ivy’s mother’s grave. In the end, Ivy died alone at home. Only after receiving the funeral home’s notification did Noah discover that Chloe had never been ill, that Ivy was the girl who had climbed over the wall to comfort him in childhood, and that the coma and blood draws he himself had caused had killed the one who truly loved him.
