"William Cole, I've brought your wife back home." A young man emerged from a black BMW. William Cole's wife, Ruth Dawn, also got out from the passenger's seat. The man looked up, his gaze meeting with William on the second-floor window, and grinned: "Well, what do you say? Should I bring her up?"

It is said that he's ruthless, kicking away women who throw themselves at him, but carefully cherishes her with unlimited affection, earning him the nickname "Wife-Protecting Fanatic". She, on the other hand, is just a notorious bad girl. She was on the verge of falling into the abyss when he saved her. Unfortunately, due to the disparity in their statuses, she was forced to leave with the little balls in her belly. Luckily, she obtained a dimension trading system that was beyond extraordinary. With this, the bad girl embarked on a path of counterattack and wealth, step by step climbing to the peak, becoming a grand winner in life.

—William Cole, he traído a tu esposa de vuelta a casa —dijo un joven al salir de un BMW negro. La esposa de William Cole, Ruth Amanecer, también salió del asiento del pasajero. El hombre levantó la vista, su mirada se encontró con la de William en la ventana del segundo piso y sonrió: —Bueno, ¿qué dices? ¿La subo? —preguntó.

"William Cole, eu trouxe sua esposa de volta para casa." Um jovem saiu de uma BMW preta. A esposa de William Cole, Ruth Dawn, também saiu do banco do passageiro. O homem olhou para cima, seu olhar encontrando-se com William na janela do segundo andar, e sorriu: "E então, o que você me diz? Devo levá-la para cima?"

``` "William Cole, saya telah membawa istri Anda kembali ke rumah." Seorang pria muda muncul dari BMW hitam. Istri William Cole, Ruth Dawn, juga turun dari kursi penumpang. Pria itu menatap ke atas, tatapannya bertemu dengan William yang ada di jendela lantai dua, dan tersenyum: "Nah, bagaimana menurutmu? Haruskah saya mengantarnya naik?" ```

``` "William Cole, je vous ai ramené votre femme à la maison." Un jeune homme est sorti d'une BMW noire. La femme de William Cole, Ruth Dawn, est également sortie du siège passager. L'homme a levé les yeux, croisant le regard de William à la fenêtre du deuxième étage, et a souri : "Alors, qu'en dites-vous ? Dois-je la monter ?" ```

"William Cole, ich habe Ihre Frau nach Hause gebracht." Ein junger Mann stieg aus einem schwarzen BMW aus. William Coles Frau, Ruth Dawn, stieg ebenfalls auf dem Beifahrersitz aus. Der Mann sah auf, sein Blick traf William am Fenster im zweiten Stock und grinste: "Na, was sagst du? Soll ich sie hochbringen?"

[Status: COMPLETED] In her previous life, Adrienne Jiang had used all means to save her mother’s life. Her father had neglected her after marrying his mistress, allowing the mother-and-daughter pair to bully her to no end. The older brother whom she thought she could rely on gave her a cold shoulder and chastised her instead for not cutting their mother’s life support. In her despair, Adrienne almost fell into the trap set by her stepsister. In the end, she entered a contractual marriage with her best friend’s brother, Alistair Han, a man she’d been carrying a torch for from a young age. Only then did she realize that the man was manipulative and obsessive, not wanting her out of sight. She had been treated like a bird trapped in a golden cage. In the end, she met her demise at the betrayal of her brother and everything was lost in the fire. After being reborn, she was determined not to continue being a good-for-nothing person. Lennox Qin, the vicious young master of the Qin family, was set to become the next head of their family. However, because of an incident, he was crippled and deemed unworthy. When he and Adrienne’s paths crossed, they came to an agreement. “I’ll marry you to remove your bad luck and be your wife for two years. In return, allow me to use you to destroy the Han and Jiang families.” The man seated in a wheelchair merely raised a brow at her declaration. His lips then curled into a dashing smile and he agreed without batting an eyelid. However, when the time was almost up, he rushed to convince her to stay in their marriage. “Madam Qin deserves the best. If it’s the world you desire, I’ll bring it to you on a silver platter. You can have the entire world, but darling, do not forget that while everything belongs to you, you belong to me.” Adrienne furrowed her brows. “But you don’t even like me...” She reasoned out, thinking that her husband might have lost his mind. “No, I didn’t, but I do love you now. In fact, you are the only one I think of these days.” However, it seemed to her that not only her husband was trying to get her attention but her in-laws as well.
