No wonder Gregory couldn’t hide his
impatience and questioned me.
I didn’t deny it, nodding.
“Yes, so what?”
Gregory was angry. “So what? Don’t you
know Gregory is Linda Claire’s investor?!”
“Did you talk to Nathan, convincing him to
pull his investment?”
I raised an eyebrow and asked, “Do you have
any proof?”
“You!”
Gregory faltered, his tone softening.
“Bethany, let’s not fight, okay? You’re an
adult. You should know how important this
show is to Claire…”
I coldly interrupted him.
“I don’t know.”

“And Gregory, you have no right to question
me about someone who’s none of my
business.”
“You’re so concerned about her, I suggest
you get a divorce with me. Then you can care
for her without anyone saying anything.”
I dismissed him from the studio, mopping the
floor where he had walked several times.
Then I sprayed perfume where he stood,
before stopping.
Even breathing the same air as him made me
feel sick.
After chasing Gregory away, he kept
messaging me, trying to persuade me to give
Linda Claire money.
I sent Gregory two invitation letters.
One for him and one for Linda Claire.
Gregory finally fell silent.
The day before our court date, Gregory
called, saying he wanted to discuss the
く
divorce.
I agreed, but at the cafe, I saw Linda Claire
and young Liam.
Linda Claire wept, accusing me of targeting
her.
“Bethany, we’ve known each other for so
long, why would you sabotage me? You have
a happy life, why are you still… contacting
her investor? What’s your relationship with
Nathan?”
I scoffed, asking back, “Nathan Land. Nathan
and Bethany, what do you think that means?”
The names Nathan and Bethany were given to
us because our families were close; my
mother and Nathan’s mother were best
friends.
Both gave birth around the same time, so
they chose the names.
It sounded like a couple’s name now.
Linda Claire and Gregory were both startled;

Gregory couldn’t help but ask, “You dated
Nathan? Why didn’t you ever tell me!”
I coldly glanced at Gregory and smiled.
“When did you ever tell me anything?”
In my past life, I only found out Linda Claire
was Gregory’s first love when I was dying.
They never mentioned it in college.
But I wasn’t them, and I didn’t plan to hide
anything.
I confessed directly,
“Nathan and I were childhood sweethearts. I
could be considered his first love, his white.
moonlight?”
“His white moonlight just happens to be
launching a fashion show too. Do you think
he’ll choose a recently met woman with a
child, or his unrequited love?”
“Gregory, you’re a man, you understand the
power of a first love and white moonlight.”
I sneered, noticing the embarrassment on
