On her first day back home, Aria Sterling was accused by her relatives and friends of disgracing them by returning, and they even cooked up the terrible idea of making her marry the notorious "wife-jinx," Mr. Landon of the Hawthorne family.
Aria Sterling calmly nodded, "Fine, I'll marry him."
After the flash marriage, Aria Sterling grew very interested in Mr. Landon, but he remained cold, aloof, and condescending, "If you want to live, stay away from me."
Before long, the inevitable change of heart arrived as expected.
Her father, "Aria, Dad was wrong. How can a father and daughter hold a grudge overnight? Please come home."
Her second uncle, "My dear niece, your uncle misunderstood you. Can you please save your older cousin?"
The fake heiress sister, "Sis, please help me. I don't want to die. I'll give our parents and my fiancé back to you."
Her childhood fiancé, "Aria Sterling, I was wrong. The one I love is you. Divorce him and marry me."
The disciple she had secretly supported, "Master, your disciple was blind. I promise not to act recklessly in the future. Please don't cast me out."
Friends of many years knelt and begged for mercy, "Aria Sterling, we know we were wrong. We are willing to be your best friends for life. Please save us."
Aria Sterling gave a cold glance, "Never forgiven!"
Turning around, she ran into Mr. Landon holding a gift, "Wifey, I want to talk about feelings and whisper sweet nothings to you."
Aria Sterling, "..."

Seeing Owen Ford's confusion, Aria Sterling continued, "The woman who fell in the water is a lawyer. Her mother fell on her own while out for a walk. A pregnant woman driving by saw her, and out of kindness, helped her up and took her to the hospital. But in the end, the old woman adamantly claimed the pregnant woman had hit her with her car. Her daughter—the very woman you saved—investigated and knew perfectly well that her mother had fallen on her own. Yet, she paid off the shops that had surveillance cameras, taking the footage and deleting it. This was because, as a lawyer, she didn't want people to know her mother was a scammer, fearing it would affect her career. The pregnant woman had nowhere to turn for help, and her explanations were useless. She was harassed online and forced to deal with a lawsuit. Mentally and physically exhausted, her water broke, and the eight-month-old fetus in her womb suffocated and died before they could reach the hospital."
