Grace Parrish felt that marrying Antonio Kaufman was a stroke of luck.

Back then, Antonio proposed to his first love in front of the entire school.

After he got rejected, Grace offered to marry him.

He held a grand wedding but never agreed to register their marriage.

Grace never complained, just accepting it willingly.

Three years later, Grace got pregnant.

When she came out of the consulting room, however, she ran into Antonio and his first love. Apparently, they were here to have their pre–marital health checkup.

attempting to alter the past. In his dreams, he would howl in agony at his former self.

“Push that woman away! Resist all temptations and go back to your beloved wife!”

Yet, without fail, in each dream, he would make the same tragic mistakes, repeating the wrong choices over and over.

Then, he would wake up from the throbbing pain, feeling empty, numb, and with tears streaming down his face.

Time and again, stubbornly, he would continue to have this dream.

The cycle kept repeating.

At this moment, the housekeeper approached and inquired softly, “Mr. Kaufman, did you have a nightmare again?

“Do you want me to call Dr. Zane to come and take a look? Maybe he can prescribe some more medicine to help you sleep.”

As he spoke, he gently tugged up the blanket that covered Antonio’s two prosthetic limbs, his tone thick with worry.

His initially slightly cool gaze rested on the lady immediately, and then it gradually softened into a tender expression.

He simply remained patiently to one side, watching quietly, the corners of his mouth curving up slightly, without making a sound to disrupt her.

After a while, the lady noticed the arrival of the man. She looked at him, smiled, ceased her work, tidied herself up, and then took the man’s hand affectionately. They walked out together.
