You were never meant to choose him,” Ethan said quietly, his voice controlled, steady, as his hand closed around Clara’s wrist—firm enough to stop her, gentle enough to make her listen. Clara’s breath hitched. Not from fear. But from the shock of hearing Ethan finally claim something after years of silence. She had chosen Ryan. The boy she loved openly. The one everyone approved of. The one who stood beside her without hesitation. Ethan stayed in the background. He watched Clara fall in love with another man. Watched her give her smiles, her trust, her future to someone else. He never interfered. Never confessed. Never crossed the line. Loving her quietly was the only restraint he allowed himself. Until restraint became regret. Clara was meant to be his forever. But one choice changed everything. The man she chose began to feel distant. And the man who had loved her in silence for years started to feel far more dangerous than the one she trusted. This is not a story about stolen love. It is a story about patience, restraint, and the devastating cost of choosing the right man over the one who waited.

[A Story of Male Lead Abuse · A Rebirth Novel] What is love? Young and ignorant, Annabelle Linton spent her entire life to understand that it was an obsession. Once fallen, it's impossible to break free. It can give you life, and it can also bring you death. After her rebirth, she wore a smile on her face, but her eyes were filled with ice. A friend once asked her why she loved him so much. She fell silent, then casually changed the subject without answering, but a dazed look flickered in her eyes. Perhaps it was because the years went by too fast, the world was too harsh, and the road was too difficult to walk alone, and she just wanted a home... **** There were only two kinds of people Mr. Grant hated most in this life: those he hated, and Annabelle Linton. But there was never a reason for hating Annabelle Linton, and he never looked for one. But later, he thought about it. Was it perhaps his confidence that she would never leave, no matter what? But reality later told him that he was wrong. In this world, is there really anyone who would never leave? [This novel's main focus is on the male lead's suffering. The male lead appears to be a jerk, so patience is required. He unknowingly hurt the female lead for many years. After her rebirth, the female lead stays away from him, and the male lead is completely tormented. In the later parts of the story, the male lead will have all the reactions you'd expect to see, such as suicide attempts... But the ending is a happy one. This book isn't exactly a doting romance or a gratifying romp, but it's certainly not a tragic tearjerker. If you enjoy stories that focus on the male lead's suffering, then I think you'll like this one. If you prefer sweet and fluffy stories, please check out my other book, "My Love for You, an Incurable Disease".]

The cruelest thing wasn't that she had long been buried in that shipwreck, but that she was still alive. Still living well, living well and no longer remembering him, and already having a daughter with another man, and that man was even his... *** Falling in love with him at eighteen, marrying him at twenty, giving birth to his son at twenty-one, and divorcing at twenty-four, Naomi Shaw had never imagined her love and marriage would end up in such a shattered state. She had always thought she would love one person, bear his children, and then grow old with him hand in hand. Only later did she realize that dreams and reality could never be compared after all. He had his unforgettable first love, yet she loved him to death. After falling into utter despair, she was finally able to leave everything behind. *** When they met again, she was with her daughter, who had been diagnosed with mild autism, and he mocked her coldly, "Naomi Shaw, the daughter you had with some other wild man is indeed not sound!" She replied indifferently, "And you are?" *** He had always been fond of those cold, glamorous, and enchanting women, and had little interest in a sweet and innocent girl like her. He never thought that one day, after the hurt he had inflicted and the hardships of life she had endured, she would finally become the woman he desired, only to no longer belong to him. ***

In her past life, Jessie Sterling moved abroad for Julian Grant, only to have him break his promise and stand her up late at night for another woman on her birthday. Reborn into this life, Jessie Sterling personally severed her past adoration and affection, and instead entered a marriage of convenience with Victor Morgan, the heir to a century-old prestigious family in Aethelburg, a match approved by her family.

By the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the Four Joys Courtyard, a group of people saw the man who dominated the business world by day having his knee stepped on. He held a bottle of cat-eye nail polish and was currently bowing his head, diligently painting the toenails of the foot resting on his knee. "Is this okay?" With a coquettish air, Jessie Sterling glanced down, her chin slightly raised like a spirited little peacock, "Well, it's passable, I suppose. But I think it could use another coat?" Victor Morgan was almost driven to laugh in exasperation by her words. After setting down Jessie Sterling's leg, he moved forward, planting his hands on either side of her, his eyes deep and dark as he said in a low voice, "Mrs. Morgan, that's enough!" Before Jessie Sterling could react, in the next moment, the man had already leaned in and captured the red lips before him that had been tempting him for so long. "Mrs. Morgan, don't you think this... is what really needs another coat of color?" The group of people who had just walked through the courtyard entrance froze on the spot. How the hell could this be called... treating each other with polite respect?
