I Gave Up Marrying My Husband After Being Reborn With Him

Before my birthday party, Grandpa and I talked about my engagement in his study. He asked me which one from the Zachary family I intended to marry. Without hesitation, I chose Matthew Zachary—a decision that shocked Grandpa. After all, everyone in the circle knew that I was deeply in love with Jeffrey Zachary and would not marry anyone else.

In a past life, I married Jeffrey Zachary, but later found out he had a relationship with Rosalie Larson. He begged for forgiveness, saying it was an accident.

He tearfully knelt and begged for my forgiveness. "I beg you. It was really just an accident."

Despite me forgiving him, Grandpa still found out and ordered someone to send Rosalie away. Jeffrey wrongly thought I was behind it and hated me for it.

Over time, the elders in my family passed away one after another; rivals got ahead in business, and the company’s secrets were stolen.

Tragically, I was killed when I found out I was pregnant.

In my new life, I gave my blessing to Jeffrey and Rosalie. Unexpectedly, Jeffrey crashed my engagement party and proposed to me.

As I exited the study, Jeffrey Zachary caught my eye. He was seated in the crowd wearing a stylish suit, occasionally glancing towards the door.

His friend nudged him and joked, "Looks like your simp... I mean, your loyal fan has arrived."

Jeffrey looked at me and sighed, "Why is it you? What are you doing here?"

If it were in my previous life, I would have gone to him and comforted him. However, the memory of the truck charging straight toward me was still vivid in my mind. I only replied indifferently, "Why can't I come to my birthday party?"

Noticing my stiff tone, Jeffrey instantly flew into a rage. "Hannah, what's your deal? Did you come here to cause trouble? I made time for your party. Don't think our marriage is a done deal just because you visited your grandpa!"

When Jeffrey's friend saw us arguing, he immediately chimed in, "Seriously, Hannah? That's how you talk to him? You should be apologizing! If you hadn't been throwing yourself at Jeffrey for years, he wouldn't have paid any attention to you!"

I was speechless. "If you're not enjoying the party, feel free to leave. My wedding will be announced at my grandpa's 80th birthday next month. It doesn't concern you, so there's no need to be bothered by it."

Although I had the intention of marrying Matthew Zachary, I had not asked him yet. So, I could not announce it hastily.

"Wedding?"

A guest asked in surprise, "Looks like Mr. Zachary Sr. and Mr. Larson Sr. are getting ready to step down. The successor to Zachary Group has finally been decided."

Hector and George were close friends and should have retired a long time ago. I was the Larson family's only legitimate daughter and they agreed that whoever I wed would receive Hector's 20% share.

Combined with his original 15% stake, Jeffrey became true head of the Zachary Group in my past life after marrying me.

Zachary Group was about to change.

After hearing this, Jeffrey's friends said happily, "Jeffrey, you're going to become the CEO!"

Jeffrey, with a smug expression, warned me, "Don't assume marrying me will bring you success. Your arrogance annoys me. I've learned from my past mistakes. I'll marry you, but not into your family. Also, ensure a good position for Rosalie before our marriage."

Before I could clarify that my wedding plans had nothing to do with him, I was surprised to discover that he, too, was reborn. In my previous life, it was a Zachary family servant's reminder that revealed their affair. With a fresh start, he seemed no different.

Just as I was about to confront him, I heard a timid voice behind me calling out, "Hannah."

Looking frail, Rosalie walked over with scars on her face, attracting everyone's attention.

Seeing her, Jeffrey immediately greeted her with pity. "What happened? How did you become like this? Who hurt you?"

Before Rosalie could answer, Jeffrey immediately turned around and glared at me, "Hannah, you really like playing dirty, don't you?"

I was about to explain, but Rosalie interjected, "It's nothing serious. I accidentally bumped into something on my way here. Today is Hannah's birthday. Although she has never liked me, I still wanted to wish her a happy birthday."

Hearing this, Jeffrey shot me a disdainful look. "Hannah, if only you were as compassionate as her..."

Before Jeffrey could finish his sentence, Rosalie gently pulled his arm. "Don't be upset, Jeffrey. I believe that Hannah will eventually let go of her grudge against me."

Jeffrey pitied Rosalie even more. He escorted her, saying, "Let's go see a doctor together. We shouldn't ignore any injuries."

As they left, Jeffrey gave me a cold, threatening glare. "Hannah, keep yourself in check! If you bully Rosalie again, I can't guarantee that our engagement will go smoothly." He then took Rosalie away.
