老公和小三合谋要杀我骗保,而他的情妇居然是......
The car accident nearly claimed my life, yet, against all odds, I survived, as if by some divine miracle.

"Darling, don't worry... How was I supposed to know she didn't die and even got rescued? But relax, I won't let her leave this hospital alive!"
After the accident, I had no idea how long I'd been unconscious. When I groggily woke up, my blurry vision caught sight of a tall figure in a white coat standing by the window, speaking in a hushed tone on the phone.
Even though my sight was hazy, I recognized him instantly.
It was my husband, Rocco Ford, the director of the pediatrics department.
I wiggled my fingers slightly, confirming that I was still alive.
Suppressing the relief of surviving, I was just about to speak when Rocco's impatient voice cut through the air. "I've told you, the money we spent on Zoey's insurance won't be wasted. Once she's dead, the payout will be ours-a massive payout far exceeding what we spent..."
What did he just say? No!
It felt like a thunderclap in my mind, leaving me utterly stunned.
I was the Zoey he was talking about. Who was he calling? And who was he calling "darling"?
This must be a nightmare! Desperate to escape this horrifying reality, I quickly shut my eyes again, pretending to remain in coma, and tried my best to calm myself down.
"How on earth could I feel any guilt towards her? We've ventured this far; there's simply no going back. You and I have been in each other's company for countless years. Zoey Anderson? She means nothing to me... Fine, fine. Just be a little more patient. Once she breathes her last, we'll sell the house. Coupled with the insurance settlement, we'll become millionaires. Undoubtedly, we'll lead a life of luxury for the rest of our days..." Rocco lowered his voice, but the hospital room was so quiet that every word he said pierced my ears with chilling clarity.
In those few minutes, I summoned every ounce of strength I had to stay composed. I could only keep my eyes shut and feign unconsciousness.
But I could feel the cold malice creeping over me, as if the room had been plunged into ice.
Rocco's words coiled around me like a venomous snake, suffocating me.

Hannah Rodriguez was fired from her place of work, and at the same time, she received a call from her lawyer that her husband had filed for a divorce. Heartbroken, she ran to her best friend's house to cry out her despair, but she unexpectedly saw her husband having sex with her best friend. Her mother-in-law had thrown her things out of the house.

Everyone was shocked to the bones when the news of Rupert Benton's engagement broke out. It was surprising because the lucky girl was said to be a plain Jane, who grew up in the countryside and had nothing to her name. One evening, she showed up at a banquet, stunning everyone present. "Wow, she's so beautiful!" All the men drooled, and the women got so jealous. What they didn't know was that this so-called country girl was actually an heiress to a billion-dollar empire. It wasn't long before her secrets came to light one after the other. The elites couldn't stop talking about her. "Holy smokes! So, her father is the richest man in the world?" "She's also that excellent, but mysterious designer who many people adore! Who would have guessed?" Nonetheless, people thought that Rupert didn't love her. But they were in for another surprise. Rupert released a statement, silencing all the naysayers. "I'm very much in love with my beautiful fiancee. We will be getting married soon." Two questions were on everyone's minds: "Why did she hide her identity? And why was Rupert in love with her all of a sudden?"
On the day of her grand engagement, she was betrayed by her fiancé and stepsister and died in a cruel setup. But fate gave her a second chance. Reborn as a sharp, fearless woman, the once naïve heiress is back for revenge. Those who hurt her will pay-one by one. Armed with financial brilliance and a ruthless heart, she rises to the top of the business world. But she catches the attention of a powerful CEO who is even more dangerous-cold, calculating, and determined to make her his wife. Two masterminds collide in a fiery romance filled with schemes, passion, and payback. In this game of love and power, only they are worthy opponents-and perfect partners.
To most, Verena passed for a small-town clinic doctor; in truth, she worked quiet miracles. Three years after Isaac fell hopelessly for her and kept vigil through lonely nights, a crash left him in a wheelchair and stripped his memory. To keep him alive, Verena married him, only to hear, "I will never love you." She just smiled. "That works out-I'm not in love with you, either." Entangled in doubt, he recoiled from hope, yet her patience held him fast-kneeling to meet his eyes, palm warm on his hair, steadying him-until her glowing smile rekindled feelings he believed gone forever.
