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. 1 "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! 2 The next day, arranged by the matchmaker, I met Caleb. Young Caleb was truly handsome, which was one of the reasons I chose him in my last life. Caleb was still cold to me. He just glanced at me and said, "If you think I'm okay, we can get the marriage license." In my last life, I rolled my eyes so hard when I heard this. If my parents hadn't told me how good Caleb was and how promising his future was, I wouldn't have agreed. He felt like he was just marrying me to deal with his parents. Facts proved he was indeed marrying me to deal with his family. But this life was different. I nodded like a bobblehead: "Okay, okay, we can get the license anytime." Caleb's attitude was cold. He looked at me with slight surprise and said deeply, "However, I have to say some things upfront. I'm very busy. After we get married, I won't have time to accompany you." "Also, I'm not very keen on that aspect. I must make this clear to you beforehand. If you mind, then..." "I don't mind! I don't mind at all!" I said with a smile. With so many men to play with in the future, I wouldn't be obsessed with doing that with Caleb. In my last life, we did do it, and it was Caleb who initiated it. No matter how deeply in love he was with someone else, he was still a man. It was normal for a man to have physical needs. But doing it with him wasn't great. He just pumped away without talking, completely devoid of romance. Maybe I was too easygoing, because Caleb looked at me with even more confusion. I stopped smiling and explained: "Actually, I'm like you. I just want to find someone to marry to deal with my family. The reason I chose you is because you look mature and steady, not like a troublemaker." "After meeting you, you are exactly as you appear in the photos." "You can rest assured. Since I married you, even if there is no love between us, I will be responsible for our family and won't do anything untoward." Caleb's expression relaxed slightly. He nodded: "I think so too. In that case, let's settle the marriage." "Okay!" My parents were thrilled when they found out I settled on Caleb. I was happy too. Both families discussed the wedding date. It was obvious that both sets of parents were anxious. The wedding was set for next month, but they said the day after tomorrow was a lucky day and asked me and Caleb to get the marriage license first. In my last life, Caleb and I had a decent wedding. Even though I didn't like him at that time, I had natural expectations for a wedding, so I put a lot of effort into it. I discussed every detail with the wedding planner, what flowers to use, the design of the invitations... But from beginning to end, Caleb never showed up. I tentatively asked him: "Do you have any ideas about the wedding? How about we go to the wedding planner together tomorrow? What do you think?" Caleb's attitude was distant and cold: "As long as you like it. I don't have any ideas. And I'm very busy, I don't have time." Caleb only appeared on the wedding day. But as soon as the ceremony was over, he went back to the hospital, leaving me alone at the reception to greet the guests. At that moment, I actually regretted it. Even if two people who don't love each other get married, they should at least act like a couple. But Caleb didn't even pretend. He really didn't care. That night, Caleb stayed in his lab and didn't come home all night. When he came back the next day to wash up and change clothes, he handed me two cards. "This is my salary card, and this card has my savings. Buy whatever you want, you don't need to ask me." I checked the balance of these two cards. The salary card had over fifty thousand, and the savings card had much more. Later I learned that Caleb not only owned his own lab but also made investments and earned a lot of money. From then on, I lived the life of a wealthy wife. Choosing Caleb in this life was also to live that life again. As for the wedding... Who cares? "No need for a wedding, it's too much trouble. Caleb's work must be very busy. We can just register," I said understandingly. Caleb turned his head and looked at me silently, the corners of his mouth curving into an imperceptible arc, and nodded. 3 Coming out of City Hall, Caleb and I became a legal couple. He handed me two bank cards and said the same words as in my previous life. I took them with excitement and smiled at him: "Thank you. Then go to work, I won't disturb you." Caleb didn't turn around and leave like in my previous life. Instead, he looked at me, and after a while, nodded. "Okay, I'm leaving. I won't drop you off." He opened the car door, as if suddenly thinking of something, and turned to ask me: "Do you have a driver's license?" I nodded: "Yes, why?" I don't like cars and don't like driving. But after the college entrance exam, my parents forced me to get a license, saying I might not use it, but I couldn't be without it. Caleb said: "You can choose a car you like. It will be convenient for you to go anywhere in the future." I was slightly surprised. In my last life, whenever Caleb went out for business or to meet friends, he would answer the phone and drive away, never thinking about how I would get around. In this life, he actually offered to buy me a car. Might as well take it. "Okay, thank you." Caleb opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something else, but eventually got in the car. I watched him leave and immediately called my friend to choose a car. My friend envied me to death when she heard what I said. "OMG, when will I meet such a peerless good man? No need to deal with him, no need to serve him, spend money freely, and be free as if unmarried, just with someone supporting you. This is simply my dream life!" She grabbed my arm and shook it vigorously: "Does your husband have any brothers? Or friends? Birds of a feather flock together, his brothers and friends should be his type too, right?" "No," I said with certainty. I knew everything about Caleb in my last life. My friend pouted regretfully: "Forget it, not everyone is as lucky as you. I can only envy you." I just smiled and didn't speak. Actually, in the beginning of my previous life, I wasn't this lucky, because... I fell in love with Caleb. Even though I initially just wanted to deal with my parents, after spending a long time together, I involuntarily discovered Caleb's strengths. 4 Caleb's biggest strength was his authority in his industry. Being a sapiosexual combined with admiration for strength made me start to worship Caleb, especially seeing him give reports on TV or doing experiments in his lab... Really handsome. Plus, he was generous to me. Knowing I didn't like housework, he hired a maid directly. Gradually, I really fell for him. So when Caleb proposed to consummate the marriage, I agreed without hesitation. Even though it didn't feel great, I thought it was a good start. At least Caleb had desire for me. Later, I got pregnant. I said to Caleb: "Can you spend more time at home with me during this period?" Caleb's eyes were still cold and distant: "The maid will take care of you at home, or you can go back to your parents' house. I'm really too busy to get away." The child wasn't saved in the end. When I was four months pregnant, I was pushed down the escalator by a brat in the mall, and the child was gone on the spot. My parents and Caleb's parents called Caleb several times, even went to the hospital to find him, but Caleb didn't appear in my hospital room until the next afternoon. I cried and questioned him: "Why did you just come? Do you know our child is gone? The doctor said I might never have children again!" Caleb stood by the bed, his expression unchanged. What was a huge event for me didn't even make him frown. "It was my fault. I should have used protection. I won't let this happen again." "As for the child, I never thought about having children. Now that it's gone, let's just say this child wasn't meant for us." That was when I was most vulnerable. I picked up the pillow and smashed it on him repeatedly: "Caleb, are you human? How can you say such things? Do I have no place in your heart? You don't care about my life or death, and you don't like me at all, do you?" Caleb didn't move, letting me hit him with the pillow. I was tired and told him to leave, and he really left. I stayed in the hospital for half a month, and Caleb didn't visit me once. My parents regretted it, saying they shouldn't have forced the marriage, and told me to divorce. Half a month later, I returned home. Caleb transferred the house to my name. He told me: "Chloe, this is all I can give you." "If you want my heart, I can tell you clearly, I can't give it to you." "If you want a divorce, you can. I will leave the marriage with nothing." At that moment, I completely gave up on him. But I didn't divorce him. He had money and was generous. I just needed to guard the money. What sapiosexual? Sometimes it's money-sexual!
