Chapter 1

I woke up in the hospital.

My throat was dry and burning, rendering me ill at ease.

I looked around the ward and saw no one, so I had to reach for the water on the table myself.

At this moment, a nurse pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that I was awake, she quickly came over and helped me up.

"Mrs. Lawson, you're awake. Mr. Lawson is next door now." She glanced at me cautiously and asked, "Do you need me to call him over?"

Today, Alana Ward and I fell into the water at the same time. Easton chose to swim towards her without hesitation. I fell into the deep water in desperation.

I endured the pain and said with a dry throat at the thought of this, "No need."

After the nurse helped me finish the drip, she left the ward.

I closed my eyes. The scenes of what had happened today kept replaying in my mind.

Today was Easton's birthday. He had a birthday party on a luxury cruise ship.

As his wife, I naturally showed up with him.

When he appeared holding my hands, he seemed distracted, constantly searching the crowd with his eyes.

It wasn't until he gazed at a corner that he smiled.

I followed his gaze and saw a girl in a white dress, who was looking back at him from across the crowd.

It was Alana, Easton's childhood sweetheart.

After accompanying him through the ceremony, I left him.

I didn't like crowded places, so I went back to my room.

Upon opening the door, I saw Easton sitting on the edge of the bed. He seemed to have been waiting for me for a while.

I asked in confusion, "Why are you back?"

Easton's eyes were clear and bright, rendering him obedient and cute. Instead of answering, he asked, "Do you have a gift for my birthday?"

I held my breath, thinking, "It happens again."

He stared at me directly, making my face flush. I turned around and took out an exquisite gift box from my bag.

He took it with both hands affectionately as if he had found a treasure.

Easton slowly opened the gift box, revealing a delicate blue sapphire button inside.

He planted a kiss on my cheek excitedly, unable to hide his joy. Then he said, "Thank you, Giana. You're so good!'

After speaking, he coughed lightly and said reluctantly, "Giana, I can't accompany you anymore."

Many people were waiting for him, the protagonist, outside. I nodded.

After he left, I was about to rest for a while. Then I noticed a cell phone on the bed.

It must have been left behind by Easton.

I picked up the cell phone and went after him to give it back to him.

He walked so fast that I couldn't find him nearby.

Finally, I saw him embracing Alana on a deck.

I paused, and my heart was in pain. I couldn't catch my breath.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to approach them.

"Easton."

Seeing me coming, Alana hurriedly withdrew from Easton's embrace.

Easton frowned, looking somewhat displeased.

I tried my best to suppress my emotions, handed him the cell phone, and turned away.

Alana caught up with me in small steps. At a loss, she said gently, "Giana, it's not what you think..."

I impatiently shook off her hand holding my wrist.

"Ouch!"

A scream came from behind me.

When I turned around, Alana's body was halfway outside the railing.

I was shocked as I instinctively bent down to grab her. The tremendous force caused my whole body to lean forward.

"Splash."

Both of us fell into the water.

"Alana!"

Easton jumped into the sea without hesitation, and he swam towards Alana with all his strength.

I gradually lost strength. A large amount of seawater had been poured into my nasal cavity. My body sank heavily towards the depths of the sea.
