I was reborn on the day I confessed my love to Ada Roberts.

Looking at her gorgeous yet indifferent face and her so-called best friend, Gavin Walker, I couldn't help but think of my tragic death in my previous life.

My friends around all urged me to confess my feelings to her because they knew that I had liked her for ten years.

I plucked up the courage to kneel down on one knee. When all my friends were waiting for me to confess my love to Ada, I looked at Emma Torres, my beautiful boss, who was standing not far away.

"Emma! Will you marry me?" I said.

*****

Someone said to me, "Aiden Nelson, congratulations! You and Ada are finally going to settle down!"

I suddenly opened my eyes and looked around nervously. Surrounded by my friends and colleagues, I found myself holding ninety-nine pink roses.

I was reborn! I was reborn on the day I proposed to Ada!

In my previous life, I fell in love with my childhood sweetheart Ada. After ten years of pursuit, I finally succeeded in confessing my love to her. But after we got married, I found out that Ada had a male best friend, Gavin, and was even pregnant with his child once.

I endured their relationship again and again, but what I got in return was their conspiracy, which made me bankrupt and ended up being pushed off from the top of a building by them.

Everyone avoided my broken and bloody corpse, except Emma, who was crying while holding my body.

My last memory came to an abrupt end with Emma's crying, and when I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day of confessing my love to Ada.

I would never make the wrong choice again this time!

The indifferent Ada and the hypocritical Gavin beside her annoyed me so much.

However, seeing Emma hiding behind the crowd and drinking alone, I decided to come after them later.

One of my friends, Ethan Kennedy, poked my back and whispered to me, "Aiden, come on! Everyone is waiting!"

I looked at him, recalling the bankrupt Ethan's miserable ending in prison because of Ada's plot. Now, he was urging me to marry her.

"Of course. I let everyone know how much I love her!"

After saying that, I held up the roses in my hand, and my friends and colleagues around me also excitedly raised their glow sticks to celebrate the engagement between Ada and me.

Then, I finally saw a hint of smile on Ada's fair face. In my previous life, I thought she was happy, but later, I realized that her smile was sarcasm, mocking my stupidity.

I knelt on one knee, but my direction was slightly off, so I faced sideways towards Ada.

"Emma! Will you marry me?" I said.

Hearing my words, not only my friends and colleagues present, as well as Ada and Gavin, but even Emma, who was drinking alone in depression, was stunned. She looked at me blankly and stopped shaking the wine glass in her hand.

"Aiden! You son of bitch!" Ada was so irritated that she slapped me hard, but I easily dodged it.

I stood up, holding the bouquet of pink roses prepared for her.

"I don't want to be your simp anymore. From now on, I'll stay with the person I truly love!" I said.

No one, including me, knew how this mess ended that night.

After I proposed to Emma, the scene was in chaos. Ada's friends began to beat me up, and my friends also joined the fight.

I took advantage of the chaos to take Emma away from the romantic scene I had carefully prepared, disappearing into the night.

The next day, I returned to the company with my resignation.

When my colleagues saw that I still dared to come to work, they all looked stunned.

I greeted them one by one and distributed the gifts that I had bought in advance for them.

I said, "Hey, buddies, just take these presents. I'm going to resign, inherit my family fortune, and get married to the most wonderful woman in my life!"

When I distributed the gifts to my colleagues with a smile, the gloom of last night was gone, and they gathered around me to chat about what happened to me.

"My dear fella, I've never thought your family is so rich! So, working is just entertainment for you, right?"

Ethan put his arm around my shoulders and teased me. When we were stranded in that chaos, he was the first one to counterattack Ada's friends. That was why he put on those funny bandages around his head.

I patted his chest and said, "I wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I won't pretend anymore! I'm rich!"

Everyone was very happy and was about to express their congratulations when three people appeared in the office. The whole place suddenly became quiet. I turned my head and saw Emma, Ada and Gavin walking into the company one after another.

Emma has a bad reputation in the company as a workaholic. Everyone was overwhelmed by her high-pressure work efficiency. I also experienced her rigorous management in my previous life.

She looked at us with a gloomy face and growled, "What are you doing?"

Everyone looked at me. They knew that after proposing to her last night, I took the opportunity to run away with her.

But given Emma's reaction now, everyone's heart sank, thinking that the reason I acted so casually today was because she turned me down.

Ethan leaned beside me and whispered, "Aiden, what's going on? Why is this devil still so irritable?"

I smiled at him to comfort his uneasiness and walked towards Emma.

She stared at me with a gloomy face and asked, "Aiden! What are you doing during work hours?"

"To celebrate my resignation, of course!" I smiled and took out the prepared resignation letter from my pocket and handed it to her.

Maybe she didn't expect that I would resign so carefreely. Emma stared at me closely with a bit of disappointment in her eyes. Maybe in her heart, I was just a scumbag who deceived her.

"Okay! Then quickly pack your things and get out!" Emma snatched the resignation letter from my hand and threatened me before she was about to leave. I glanced at Ada. She looked embarrassed, and her fair face seemed to be covered with a layer of haze.

"Hey, Emma, I haven't finished talking yet. You should pay my salary for this month!"

I smiled and called out to Emma, who was about to leave, but she stopped with a much more gloomy face, seeming to be on the verge of losing her temper.

"According to company regulations, the salary of resigned employees will be paid together with other employees in the next natural month!" she said.

I said, "But I can't wait! Find me some collateral first."

I moved closer to Emma, and what responded to me was her even angrier look.

"A Rule is a rule. Besides, what kind of collateral can I give you?" she said.

"Please give me the rest of your life, my darling!" I said.

"Cheers!"

A few friends of mine and I gathered in a barbecue restaurant and chatted with each other.

Ethan put his arm around my shoulders. He and I had been friends for many years, and he was also a victim of Emma's high-pressure persecution for many years.

"Aiden, what are you thinking? Why are you dating that devil instead of Ada? Are you a masochist?" he asked.

I grinned, but my heart was filled with sadness. In my previous life, Ethan's family was ruined because of me, but I couldn't tell him.

I could only pat him on his shoulder. "I'm saving you from Emma. She will be much more friendly once we're married. I'm doing your best!"

"Oh, come on! Don't play with us now!"

They jokingly scolded me, then raised their glasses to toast. Before I could drink the wine in one gulp, the glass in my hand was taken away by a slender hand. I turned my head and found Emma standing behind me with a gloomy face.

"Darling!" I shamelessly hugged her waist and shouted loudly, which made her feel helpless.

We ran for a long time last night before we stopped and agreed to give each other some time. But due to my shamelessness, she was forced to accept my proposal to her.

I winked at Ethan, and he tactfully made room for Emma to sit down. I smiled at him with satisfaction. "It's so good for me to see you act like an adult, Ethan!"

In the past, he would definitely call me an idiot and then kick me back, but this time, before he could scold me, Emma hit me first.

"Aiden, respect your colleagues!" she said.

"Emma is right! Take your wife's advice, Aiden!" Ethan and my friends took the opportunity to tease us, causing Emma's delicate face to blush slightly.

Given the right atmosphere, I grinned, reached out my arms and hugged her waist, holding her tightly in my arms. However, years of stereotypes made this scene look very strange, as if I was her dog.

After Emma symbolically struggled for a few seconds, she leaned in my arms, and I felt a little proud.

Although Emma was known as a workaholic, it didn't overshadow her beauty.

Thinking that I gave up Emma, who liked me in my previous life and pursued Ada, that scumbag, I even wanted to dig out my eyes and wash them with disinfectant!

Ethan said, "Emma, when are you going to marry my pal? We are all looking forward to attending your wedding!"

Emma rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction. "Ethan, I don't want to discuss it right now."

I agreed with her. "My darling is right! I suggest that you give him all my work tomorrow so that he can know what he shouldn't say!"

"Aiden is right! You should take over all his work tomorrow," Emma said.

I didn't expect Emma to agree with what I said. This made me feel a little secretly happy, and I looked at Ethan proudly.

When Ethan heard that he was going to take over all my work, his face changed, and he begged for mercy to Emma in a crying voice, which made the atmosphere of the dinner party even more humorous.

I breathed a sigh of relief. In my previous life, Ada and I had done the same thing with Ethan and the others, but Ada always had an indifferent expression and was unwilling to give me any face in front of my friends.

While we were chatting, a familiar woman suddenly appeared in my sight. It was Ada!

I don't know when she approached us and suddenly overturned the table. In an instant, countless iron sticks and glass bottles were about to hit Emma and me.

"Aiden!"
