The screech of brakes tore through the rainy night as Zoe Xu, twenty-nine, drew her last breath in a fatal car crash. The final image seared into her mind was Hugh Pei holding another woman, Lila Wei, in his arms—a sight that, combined with the news of her family's bankruptcy, became the cruelest epitaph for her short life. The marriage that began as a business alliance had ended with her tragic death, paving the way for him and his "one true love." But at the moment of her death, fate hit the reset button. Zoe awakens in her bedroom, three months into her marriage with Hugh. The crystal chandelier still sparkles, but the woman in the mirror has not yet been worn down by his emotional neglect. A glimmer of foolish hope for their marriage still lingers in her eyes. This time, the proud heiress of A-City is done being subservient. She is determined to tear down the "perfect couple" charade. She watches his cold detachment with indifference and, this time, is the first to serve the divorce papers. The love and hate of her past life have burned to ashes; all she wants is to reclaim what her family lost and live for herself. But then, things begin to go off the rails. Hugh, who once treated their home like a hotel, starts coming home on time. The man who never spared a thought for her feelings now brings her hot coffee when she works late. His strange behavior sends ripples across the calm surface of Zoe's heart. Is this the butterfly effect of her rebirth, or is he plotting something new? A chance encounter at "Encounter Café" brings an even bigger surprise. Lila Wei, the girl Hugh cherished, is there, bustling between tables in an apron, her smile as bright as the rumors say. But looking into her eyes, Zoe sees an innocence that startles her. Perhaps this "one true love" never knew she was a weapon destined to shatter another woman's life. As Hugh and Lila meet and fall in love again, just as they did in the past, Zoe stands at a crossroads, questioning for the first time: is revenge the only answer? From quiet endurance to sharp brilliance, Zoe reclaims her family's honor in the world of business while navigating an emotional tug-of-war that reveals the truth of the heart. Hugh's belated affection, Lila's innocent gaze, and the growing pains of her own rediscovery weave a complex web. She finally understands that rebirth isn't about repeating hatred, but about the chance to choose: to drown in the pain of the past, or to walk towards a future that is truly her own. This is a story of female awakening—a battle fought when the illusion of marriage is stripped away and the halo of a "perfect rival" shatters. It’s a story where two evolving souls collide and spark amidst the city's neon lights. You'll find an emotional chess game of sweetness and angst, the satisfying thrill of a comeback against all odds, and the courage of a woman rebuilding herself from the ruins. This urban romance—a blend of second chances, powerful protagonists, and real-world questions—will pull you in. After all, life offers no true do-overs, but we always have the power to rewrite our ending.

After all, she lived one. Daughter of a powerful billionaire. Owner of a walk-in closet bigger than some apartments. Pink convertibles, private island holidays, champagne breakfasts. No bills, no heartbreak, no effort. Arabella never worked a day in her life. She never had to. She was pretty, privileged, polished—and perfectly content being the center of her own glamorous, soft-lit world. Until one conversation flipped everything. To honor a decades-old promise between two powerful families, Arabella is forced into marriage with the last man on Earth she ever imagined she'd say "I do" to: Cassian Vale.

Now the man who won’t even meet her eyes as he slides a wedding ring onto her finger. At 23, Cassian is the youngest and most feared executive in the city.

And she refuses to let the boy who gave her her first fairytale become the man who ruins all the rest.

As she begins working—secretly—under a different name in one of his companies, she discovers the ice surrounding her husband might not be eternal… And the prince she loved as a child might still exist beneath the frost. But in a world full of public scandals, ex-lovers, family expectations, and whispered betrayals, one question keeps Arabella up at night: Can a girl built to be admired ever be loved for who she really is? And will Cassian Vale ever see her as more than a favor… ...but as the one woman who could melt his frozen world?
