Part 2The Price of Dignity

As soon as I got home, I went straight to my room.

I called the hospital and booked an appointment with a specialist for a full checkup tomorrow.

Whether in the past life or this one, I really want to live.

Just as I hung up, Julian suddenly came back. I don't know why.

He loosened his tie impatiently.

"What did you mean back there on the street?"

"Sarah, can you stop throwing attitude for no reason?"

Ever since Chloe became his secretary, Julian had become incredibly harsh towards me. He found fault with everything I did.

His attitude change and Chloe's provocations were why I acted crazy in my last marriage.

I endured the suffocating pain in my chest and turned around calmly.

"Julian, believe it or not, I'm not angry. I'm not being unreasonable, and I'm not throwing attitude."

"Look, I've already washed my face. I'm not mad at you, and I certainly wouldn't dare be mad at Chloe."

With that, I ignored him, went into the bathroom, and locked the door.

When I came out, he was gone.

Instead, my phone started buzzing non-stop.

It was Chloe's habit. Whenever she was with Julian, she would spam me with photos of their life together.

She treated me like her personal cloud storage.

In my last life, this made me cry or scream at Julian constantly.

But now, looking at the photos, I didn't curse her.

Instead, I replied earnestly: "Your angle is off. Julian's side profile is better. Hold the phone higher next time."

"Also, crop the photo tighter. Less background makes you look more intimate."

As soon as I sent it, Chloe replied:

"Did you get hacked?"

I sent a smiley face.

"No. Just letting you know, you can have him."

Then I blocked her.

This triangular property relationship works for me.

I want the title of Mrs. Thorne and the supplementary credit card.

Julian's body and heart? Chloe can have them.

Unlike my past self, I'm not stupid enough to want his love anymore.
