Reborn and Regret

On the day that I was kidnapped, so was Rick.

The human traffickers took us to countless places to hide. Rick would always cry for a long time. I didn't want him to be beaten up all the time, so I would secretly comfort him.

The lucky thing was that we were rescued before we were sold.

When we parted ways, he only knew that the short-haired girl who smiled a lot was Mindy.

"Don't forget me, Mindy," he said.

To Rick, Mindy was his childhood sweetheart who kept him company during the toughest times.

I did remember him, but he didn't remember me.

When we met again, the Duncan family was having financial difficulties and hoped to have a marriage alliance with my family.

Because of Jennifer, my parents and I never brought up the kidnap.

Even Rick's parents thought that Jennifer was Mindy.

On the second day of me and Rick's marriage, Jennifer returned after being missing for six months.

Rick looked at Jennifer, who had short hair and always smiled, and my parents. He had finally found "Mindy".

Jennifer seemed to have remembered everything and immediately recognized Rick.

From that moment onwards, their love became secret but passionate.

As for me, I looked like someone who forced a loving couple to be apart.

After heading upstairs, I suddenly thought of something. "Rick, why are you so sure that Jennifer is Mindy?"

"No one has the same gentle smile as Mindy," he said.

So that was the reason...

I stopped smiling a long time ago.

To everyone at work, I was a cold and ruthless woman.

Even my parents would try and convince me not to be so strict.

I yawned and was about to go to bed.

When I woke up again, Rick had already gone to work.

I went to find him with the paperwork and saw Jennifer in his office.

"Wendy, are you here for Rick?" Jennifer was surprised. "He's gone to a meeting and will be back soon."

She acted like she was at home and even asked the secretary to make me a cup of coffee.

I sat opposite her. "Jennifer, have you gone to the hospital for your checkup?"

"I'm not sick, why should I go for a checkup?" Jennifer stopped what she was doing. "Also, Wendy, you need to call me Mindy!"

"You're not Mindy, Jennifer." I looked into her eyes.

As soon as I finished speaking, Jennifer began panting and her face turned red. She then began coughing.

"What's wrong, Mindy?" As soon as Rick opened the door and saw Jennifer's state, he rushed over and pulled Jennifer into his arms. "Don't scare me, Mindy."

He furrowed his brows and looked at me. His eyes were full of anger. "Wendy, what did you do to Jennifer? If anything happens to Mindy, I'll make you pay with your life!"

I was intentionally testing Jennifer, but Rick pinned the blame on me without asking anything made my heart ache.

I gave him everything but was still not as important as someone who was called Mindy.

After Jennifer was sent to the hospital, Rick stayed by her side.
