Chapter 1

My husband is a lawyer, renowned for his dedication to justice and his kind demeanor.

Yet, in an attempt to clear the name of his first love, he personally disposed of a disfigured female body by throwing it off a cliff.

Unbeknownst to him, that body belonged to his wife, who was five months pregnant.

What he also didn't know is that I'm a System Strategy Woman, and I have an uncanny ability to survive.

The night was engulfed in a torrential downpour, washing over the ground.

My body lay on the asphalt road, my face unrecognizable, blood mingling with the mud, forming a stream, though the source of the bleeding was not apparent.

The man hesitated, conflicted.

But soon, he donned gloves, lifted my head, and began dragging me to the roadside.

This road ran along a mountain, with a sheer cliff at its edge.

This man was my husband, Finn.

Two hours earlier, his childhood sweetheart had called him.

Nora's voice was frantic, as she cried for his help: "Finn, I hit someone. What should I do? I'm terrified."

He rushed over.

Upon arrival, he immediately embraced the trembling Nora in the car, comforting her: "Nora, don't worry, I'm here, I'm here."

Nora sobbed uncontrollably, eventually calming down: "Finn, I went up the mountain to pray for your mother today. I didn't expect to hit someone at this turn, and there was so much blood, sob sob..."

Finn gently patted her back, soothing her softly: "It's alright, it's alright, I'm here."

The rain had soaked the body, making it much heavier.

Finn dragged me until he stumbled over a stone and fell heavily onto me.

Seeing my blood-streaked face, he was so frightened that he staggered back several steps, his throat clenching.

Finn crouched on the ground, dry heaving.

After a while, he dragged the body to the edge of the cliff.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and hurled the body off the cliff.

Finn leaned over to peer into the dark abyss below, clutching his chest as he exhaled deeply.

That night, he took Nora back to the mountain temple to stay for the night.

They felt the relief of surviving the ordeal.

Nora smiled sweetly, giving him a gentle kiss on the cheek: "Finn, I knew you always cared for me the most."

Finn's expression was a bit stiff, but his gaze at Nora was as gentle as a calm sea.
