Chapter One
When I saw the divorce letter, I had just finished taking care of my mother–in–law who was seriously ill for the whole night. With scarlet eyes, I heard Max Charlie said seriously, I know your didn’t do anything wrong, but Rose was divorced. I must divorce you to protect her.
Rose Moran was divorced, and there was someone who immediately got divorced for her. Naturally, being pushed to the center of the storm, I would be ridiculed.
Max Charlie had put so much efforts for protecting his love who he couldn’t marry.
My blood rushed to my head and I passed out.
When I woke up again, there was noisy sound in my ears.
Ms. Watson, wake up.
I opened my eyes, and the person I saw with an anxious look on her face was Rose Moran.
She was in a plain green dress. With her fair and tender face, she looked delicate but fragile, as if speaking loudly to her would easily scared her.
I staggered to my feet, supported myself by the hand of the nearest maid, pushed through the crowd and rushed back to my own yard.
Looking at the half–embroidery hanging in the boudoir, I clasped my hands again and again, and finally believed that I was reborn and came back to three years ago, when I had not yet gotten engaged to Max.
Originally, Max and I met today. We held a birthday party for my grandmother that day. Then I ran into Max by chance in my garden. At my first sight, he was a young man like a bright moon. He greeted me in a calm voice.
I responded politely.
originally thought it was just a simple encounter, but unexpectedly, he came to propose marriage to me in person ten days later, saying that he had fell in love with me at the first sight.
At that time, Max was a scholar at the third highest level in the imperial court and the grandson of a cabinet minister, so his status was incomparable. And his parents were very happy. It was undoubtedly a good marriage.
strictly observed the rules and teachings for women, followed my parents‘ orders, so I married
Max.
After getting married, Max focused on his career, and I was responsible for various social engagements, taking care of my parents–in–law and my young brother–in–law, as well as nanaging the housework and business. All the mundane affairs were taken by myself.
n just three years, Max had made great achievements in his career. He was favorited by the emperor and had close relations with all the dignitaries. He had a smooth career journey.
But he had always treated me with respect but indifference.
He never liked to stay with me alone, let alone care about my preferences.
Miss, are you feeling better Don’t you really need to see a doctor the maid Wendy asked in a

gentle voice.
I got sober and gave her a gentle smile, shaking my head, I’m good.
Then Miss, do you still want to go to the front hall The banquet hasn’t ended yet. Wendy asked tentatively.
No. Please tell Aunt Grace. I whispered.
Got it, Miss. Wendy responded and left.
I wouldn’t meet Max as long as I didn’t go to the hall.
After being reborn, I just wanted to stay away from him and Rose. All the entanglements. between them should be far away from me.
The breeze blew past the window, and I suddenly recalled that before my rebirth. When I received the divorce letter and walked out with a broken heart, I vaguely heard Max’s low murmur, If I could go back to days before I proposed to you, I would definitely be braver and ask Rose to marry me, so that she wouldn’t suffer those pains for years.
Suddenly I chuckled to myself. Ever since I married into the Charlie family, I have been faced with their messy accounts, huge expenses, and complicated relationships. I spent many sleepless nights, and so much efforts to lift the Charlie family into a place that everyone envied. I shouldered so many worries alone so that Max could have no worries.
But he only felt sorry for Rose….
He ignored my efforts.
Hmph.
Fortunately, I was reborn. I wanted to take a completely new path, which had nothing to do with. Max and Rose.
After I got married in my previous life, I accidentally learned that Max proposed to me just because Rose once praised me for being gentle and virtuous, and said that I would be a good wife. Especially when she saw Max and I standing together in the garden, she thought we were a good match, and she hoped that he would marry me.
What a love–struck man he was! He married me, even though he didn’t love me, just because it was his childhood sweetheart’s wish.
In this life, in order to avoid the tragedy I had in my previous life, I did not appear in the garden. But, for my peaceful life, I had to be well prepared.
The next morning, I took the maid to my grandmother’s yard. After entering the door, I knelt down and paid my respects.
Seren, what are you doing Get up quickly. When my grandmother saw me doing this, she wanted to get up and help me. The maids around me hurried forward, helping her and me, and it went into a mess.
Grandma, please let me finish speaking on my knees. I spoke solemnly and kowtowed to my grandmother.
Grandma saw my expression and knew that it was a big deal. She calmed herself down and said, Seren, you have always been calm. Now you are acting like this, it must be something big. Tell me, and I will make the decision with you.
Chapter One.

My heart was filled with tenderness. In my previous life, my grandmother passed away two years after I married into the Charlie family. At that time, Max’s mother was seriously ill, and I missed the last time I could saw my grandmother because I was taking care of my Max’s mother…
Thinking about it, I was so loved by my grandmother, but I couldn’t see her off when she died
She must have felt so sad.
I calmed myself down and choked up as I spoke, I want to go to the temple to pray for you and my parents for three months.
In my previous life, Rose got married in a month, and Max and I were getting married in two months. I wanted to leave for three months, which would be enough time for everything to settle. Besides, I also had my reasons for going to Phonics Temple.
My grandmother was slightly startled. My father was an imperial merchant. My grandmother and the empress dowager were close friends, being given privileges at an early age. Although I was born in a merchant family, I often went in and out of the imperial palace and made friends with the ladies from various families.
I behaved in a dignified and elegant manner no matter where I was. And I grew up to be the person that the elders liked, and never overstepped the mark.
Recently, my grandmother and mother were looking for a husband for me, and there were many people proposing marriage to me. My grandmother and mother wanted me to get married as soon as possible. If I proposed to go to the temple to pray at this time, it would definitely delay the marriage.
Three months wasn’t long, but this was the first time I had gone against the elders, so I knelt down and begged my grandmother for permission.
Grandma stretched out her hand to signal Aunt Grace to help me up. Seren, you have always been sensible and independent. I will not ask you the reason. If you want to go, go ahead. I will send someone to talk to your parents.
Thank you so much, grandma. After paying my respects, I took Wendy out and set out from the mansion that afternoon to pray for blessings at Phonics Temple on the outskirts of the city. This time I went out with two female body guards given by the Queen Mother, and the maid Wendy. The guards had already arrived in the Phonics Temple’for further arrangement.
The gorgeous carriage drove out of the city and attracted everyone’s attention when passing by the restaurants.
Max was drinking with a few young noblemen. When he saw my carriage, his eyes followed.
The Watson family’s carriage is gorgeous.
That’s right. The family is a royal merchant, and their financial resources should not be underestimated.
Mr. Charlie, what are you looking at Last time, you went to the old lady, Mrs. Watson’s birthday party. Did you see her eldest granddaughter, Seren Watson
Max retracted his gaze and replied calmly, I didn’t see her.
Phonics Temple located in a quiet environment. I sent Wendy away and took a walk in the back
mountain alone.

I followed my memory to a cave and heard soft sobbing sounds from inside.
Who’s in there I asked, avoiding the branches.
The sound inside paused for a moment, and then burst into more intense crying, woo, woo.
I walked quickly into the cave and saw a little girl of five or six years old crawling towards me with a pale face. She seemed to have not eaten for a long time and was very weak. She fell to the ground after crawling a few steps.
I hurried forward and picked her up.
Little girl, what’s wrong with you
The little girl hiccupped and opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She suddenly found that she couldn’t speak, and cried even more heartbrokenly.
I hurriedly comforted her, It’s okay. It’s okay. You may have been frightened. Don’t be afraid. I wi take you to see a doctor. You will be fine.
The little girl hugged me tightly, and her thin body trembled violently.
I picked up the little girl with difficulty and walked towards Phonics Temple.
Wendy came to look for me but saw me in such a mess. She came forward and exclaimed, Miss this, this is…
Hearing the strange voice, the little girl trembled even more violently with fear.
I rescued in a cave. Go get some food, prepare a bath, and find a doctor for her. I whispered.
Wendy hurriedly responded and left for preparation.
After I bathed the little girl and fed her something, I wanted a doctor to check her throat and see why she couldn’t speak. However, as soon as a stranger approached the little girl, she was sc scared that she kept snuggling into my arms.
Wendy had no choice but to leave with the doctor.
Late at night, the little girl finally fell asleep.
I walked quietly to the door.
Wendy stepped forward and asked, Miss, what should we do with that little girl
I lowered my brows and thought for a moment. This place is not far from Scarlis. Judging from her clothes, she looks like a daughter of a wealthy family. Her family must be very anxious to find her. Go get someone to Scarlis and ask who lost their child near Phonics Temple.
Yes, ma’am.
Keep a low profile and don’t let anyone take advantage of it. I warned.
Wendy responded and went to make arrangements.
For three days, I took care of the little girl, fed her, and took her to do worship. She stabilized her mood and could write her own nickname, Nia. Nia was no longer afraid of Wendy.
On the fourth day, the man we sent came back, and with him came General Carter and his wife, as well as their eldest son Andrew Carter.
When Nia saw them entering the room hurriedly, she subconsciously grabbed my arm. When she saw them clearly, she was stunned at first, and then she burst into tears and rushed towards

Mrs. Carter.
My Nia. Mrs. Carter burst into tears and hugged the little girl tightly, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. General Carter, the tough man was almost in tears. He hugged Mrs. Carter with one hand and gently touched Nia’s head with the other hand, tremblingly.
Wendy whispered in my ear, Miss, the little daughter of the Carter family went missing some time ago. The Carter family had been looking for her for a long time, but it was not near Phonics Temple where she went lost. Our man ignored it at first. But later, he heard that the little girl was also five or six years old, so he went to the Carter family to explain, and they came. I didn’t expect she really would be their daughter…
I nodded. I had knew that Nia was the daughter of the Carter family.
The reason I chose to come here, on the one hand was to avoid Max and Rose, and on the other
hand was to see if I could save her.
Ms. Watson, I am so grateful for your kindness. You saved my sister. We, the Carter family, will always remember your favor. If Ms. Watson needs us in the future, I, Andrew Carter, will be willing to die for you. Andrew walked up to me. He looked heroic, with stern eyes, and bowed deeply to me.
I hurriedly responded, Not at all, Commander. It’s just a small favor, and no one would stand idly by when they see this.
General Carter and Mrs. Carter also calmed down and came forward. Mrs. Carter wiped her tears and held my hand, Ms. Watson, thank you.
Ms. Watson, we all agree what Andrew said. We had Nia at such an old age. So we have spoiled her after her birth. Unexpectedly, she was plotted against and lost. These past few days, our whole family has been… General Carter paused, Ms. Watson, thank you very much.
General Carter, Mrs. Carter, Commander, you are too polite. Nia and I are destined to meet, but she was too frightened and refused to allow the doctor to check. Now she can’t speak. I’m afraid she will need some time to recuperate. I said, looking at Nia with eyes full of pity.
In this life, I saved Nia, which may be considered as reversing the fate of the Carter family. In the previous life, Nia was found dead in the mountains of Phonics Temple not long after…
