Chapter 1

Both Ethan Lewis and I were given a second chance at life.

We were reincarnated on the day he was supposed to propose to me.

This time, he let go of my hand and turned to embrace Olivia Taylor tightly.

I suddenly remembered that in our previous life, on our way to file for divorce, we had a car accident. As he lay dying, the name he murmured wasn't mine, but a regret.

"If I could start over, I would definitely choose Olivia Taylor. Only with her do I feel truly alive..."

If that's the case, then I'll fulfill his wish.

But later, he knelt before me, begging for us to start over.

February 14th, Valentine's Day.

Ethan Lewis had invited all our mutual friends and classmates. On the school's field at night, he had arranged countless flowers and balloons to form a huge setting.

Tonight, Ethan was going to propose to me.

Ethan and I had been dating for four years, agreeing from the start to get married after graduating from college.

So today, Valentine's Day, was the day Ethan would propose to me.

Of course, besides this reason, there was another person's existence that prompted me to choose this day.

Olivia Taylor.

She was two years our senior, the lead singer of a band, and quite a popular figure on campus.

She had fallen in love with Ethan at first sight during a school anniversary celebration and had been pursuing him passionately ever since.

Countless gestures of goodwill, bringing him breakfast, writing love letters, making appearances on Valentine's Day, Christmas, and even his birthday.

Ethan would always coldly send her away.

But this woman was relentless. Her unwavering devotion annoyed Ethan to no end.

Finally, unable to bear her persistence any longer, Ethan hinted to me that he wanted to propose, hoping to completely dash Olivia's hopes.

In my previous life, when Ethan proposed to me, Olivia was standing in the crowd.

She wore a white mini dress, a crown on her head, her gaze intense and sincere.

"Ethan Lewis, I like you! If you don't have a girlfriend, can you give me a chance?"

"I promise I won't be inferior to her!"

How did Ethan respond back then?

He smiled gently yet firmly, gazing deeply at me, one arm tightly around my waist.

"I'm sorry, but I won't let anyone else be my girlfriend."

"Rachel is my only girlfriend."

"Please don't bother me anymore in the future."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough for the three of us to hear.

Olivia was stunned, while I was deeply moved.

But this time, the situation was completely reversed.

Ethan held Olivia tightly, not even sparing me a glance, his tone calm and resolute.

"I'm sorry, Rachel. I think our relationship was just a mistake."

"In the future, please don't bother me anymore."

Almost the exact same words, just directed at a different person.

My heart suddenly twisted in pain, but my face remained calm.

I looked at Ethan, his cheeks slightly flushed with excitement, his eyes carrying a hint of guilt that was hard to notice.

But he didn't let go of Olivia's waist.

I nodded, turning to face the crowd.

"Everyone, thank you for coming today."

"But I'm afraid the proposal has to be canceled."

"Ethan has just broken up with me. Although I don't know when he changed his mind, since he's said it, we should respect his wishes."

After saying this, I looked back at Ethan, my gaze lingering on Olivia for a moment before moving away.

"Ethan, I respect your choice."

"From today, no, from this moment on, we are officially broken up, and we won't have any relationship in the future."

"I wish you happiness."
