Story
The story
Shortly after their wedding, Ava is paralyzed in a car accident. For over forty years her husband Lucas cares for her, only to learn after her death that her will leaves everything to Ryan, an old classmate, and that she secretly divorced him years ago. Ryan taunts him, claiming Ava sent Lucas's salary to him and that they share a child. Lucas is beaten to death by thugs hired by Ryan's son.
He wakes in the past, beside his young, newly paralyzed wife. This time he pockets the bank card instead of offering it, and when Ava demands he thank Ryan with money, Lucas questions Ryan's account of the rescue, noting the wounds on Ryan's hands and his convenient delay. Ava erupts, hurling a fruit knife and threatening divorce.
Lucas calmly asks whether they are not already divorced.

Before I could process this shock, Ryan sought me out, taunting me with cruel words.
"You didn't know, did you? She was worried about me, so she's been sending me your salary and her pension all these years."
"When you were younger, she refused to have children with you because we already had a child together.
