Chapter 1Inheriting the Villain's Fortune

On the day my husband, Dr. Caleb Sterling, died of AIDS, everyone was shocked.

He was a leading expert in the field, with an unparalleled understanding of the disease. It seemed impossible for him to die this way.

But only I knew the truth.

Caleb had injected himself with the blood of his "white moonlight," his first love, who had contracted the virus.

On his deathbed, Caleb held her, heartbroken:

"I researched AIDS for you. Since I can't save you now, I'll die with you!"

My in-laws tried to comfort me, but I just smiled softly.

After all, as a top medical expert, my husband left me a massive fortune.

So by day, I scouted boy toys; by night, I played with them. Life was wild and free.

I even died, eventually, on the eight-pack abs of a young lover.

So when I was reborn, and my parents asked me to choose a husband, I didn't hesitate to pick Caleb again.

I didn't expect the plot to change this time.

"Chloe, come take a look."

As soon as I walked through the door, my parents called me over.

I knew they were trying to set me up on blind dates again.

I walked over immediately, grabbed Caleb Sterling's file, and said firmly, "Him. I choose him."

My parents were shocked.

"Haven't you always resisted marriage? Why so decisive this time?"

Of course I was decisive.

My parents had no idea what a good life I lived in my previous life.

In my last life, on this very day, my parents gave me two choices and forced me to pick one to marry.

I looked reluctantly for a while and finally chose Caleb.

Caleb was a doctor. Later, he devoted himself to researching AIDS treatments, becoming a prestigious expert in the field and making a lot of money.

Because of this, I lived a wealthy life.

Although Caleb was cold to me, he was generous and never controlled my spending.

Life went on like this until Caleb turned forty. Suddenly, I received notice of his death.

The doctor told me Caleb died of AIDS.

Everyone was shocked. How could Caleb, an expert in this field, be so careless as to get infected?

But I knew.

I saw him with my own eyes, holding his first love, Lily, heartbroken: "I researched AIDS for you. Since I can't save you now, I'll die with you!"

Everyone told me to restrain my grief.

My in-laws comforted me.

I just smiled softly.

Although Caleb was dead, as a top medical expert, he left me a huge inheritance.

After that, I used the money Caleb left me to live it up. By day, I scouted boy toys; by night, I played with them. Life was wild and free.

I even died, eventually, on the eight-pack abs of a young lover.

Thinking back to my last life, the memories were endless!

So, reborn, I still chose Caleb without hesitation.

I can live happily for another lifetime!
