In my past life, I gave this to George, only to have him use it to please another woman.
In this life, Nathaniel held it in his hands, overwhelmed with gratitude.
“Beatrice, I promise I’ll treat you well.”
When I returned home, I found Isabella sitting by the piano. in the living room. Hearing the door open, she turned around and glared at me viciously: “Sister, you’re so scheming, actually thinking to use Nathaniel to provoke George.”
“Too bad George doesn’t care at all. Everything you do is pointless.”
“Besides, everyone knows that Nathaniel is worthless. If you marry him, are you planning to live like a widow for the rest of your life?”
After saying this, she laughed smugly.
Looking at her twisted features, I held back what I wanted to say. Just then, our housekeeper shouted excitedly: “Oh my, isn’t that Mr. Chapman? Ms. Layton, come look!”
I hurried to the window and indeed saw George approaching,

Neighbors had gathered around to watch the spectacle.

Those in the know were already whispering about what would become of Ms. Layton and Mr. Chapman’s relationship.
Before I could say anything, Isabella had already opened the door and rushed outside.
“George, are you here for me?”
But George pushed her aside roughly.
Caught off guard by the forceful shove, Isabella fell to the ground.
“Beatrice, marry me.”
With that, he dropped to one knee and pulled out a ring before
everyone’s eyes.
I felt nauseated.
“You’ve got it wrong. Isn’t the person you like my sister Isabella?”
Seeing me about to leave, he stood up to block my path, but Isabella grabbed onto him.

“Beatrice, listen to me, it’s all a misunderstanding. You’re the one I love. No one is more important to me than you.”
“That’s not what you said before. You said if I wanted to marry you, I’d have to be understanding, and after marriage we’d each do our own thing without interfering with each other.”
“I was just joking. How could I treat you like that?”
His face was full of urgency and sincerity.
If I hadn’t been reborn, I would have believed him.
Hearing these words, tears began streaming down Isabella’s face.
“George, how can you say that? You clearly said you liked me, that I was prettier and more adorable than my sister, that you’d marry me. That’s why I…”
“Shut up!”
George impatiently slapped her across the face, just as hard as he had slapped me that day.
Five bright red fingerprints immediately appeared on Isabella’s
face.

“You slut, you’re the one who seduced me. If it weren’t for that, how would Beatrice have married someone else?”
Even now, he still didn’t think he’d done anything wrong.
