I've Lived My Life Again, and I've Abandoned My Wife and Children Summary

After forty years of marriage, I died believing my family loved me, only for my soul to watch my wife dump my ashes in a garbage warehouse. My supposedly filial son was actually another man's child, and my wealth had funded their secret life. Given a second chance, I wake up at the exact moment my future wife, Anne Jasmine Cooper, falls into a river. Instead of crippling myself to save her like before, I push her lover Stanley to the rescue and choose to live for myself.

Chapter 1 of I've Lived My Life Again, and I've Abandoned My Wife and Children

In my last life, my wife and I lived together for forty years, in harmony and love. My son was filial and smart and became a medical expert renowned both at home and abroad. With my children and grandchildren around me and my husband and wife living in harmony, I lived a happy life for sixty years.

After my death, my soul had been lingering in the world. But I was shocked to find that my loving wife never shed a tear for me.

After I was cremated, she was reluctant to bury me, but threw my urn in a warehouse full of garbage.

My son, who was famous for his filial piety, was anxiously urging his mother.

"Mom, book the cemetery quickly, Dad can't hold on any longer."

It turned out that he was not my biological son and each six-month overseas assignment was to enjoy the family happiness with his biological father. And my wife's regular sister-travel every year was also to reunite with her lover.

They used my money to support another man and they were reluctant to buy me a grave after I died.

I was in extreme pain and when I opened my eyes again, I heard the shouts of the crowd, "Someone fell into the water, hurry up and save her."

In the last life, Anne Jasmine Cooper and Stanley Gordon jumped into the river in anger, but at the critical moment of life and death, Stanley retreated.

As the son of a servant of the Cooper Family, I saved Anne regardless of my own safety and became a cripple because of this. She became my wife to thank me.

After rebirth, I pushed Stanley forward when he was about to escape.

In this life, I would take care of myself.

——

Stanley was pushed forward by me and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes and because there were so many people present, he had to give up.

"Mr. Gordon, where are you going? Miss Cooper fell into the water. Aren't you going to save her?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, I turned around and left without any reluctance.

But he blocked my way again.

Stanley looked at me coldly, "Charles, you are her servant. You have received such a great favor from the Cooper Family. Now is the time for you to repay the favor. Hurry up and save her! If Anne is in trouble, the Cooper Family will not let you go!"

In the previous life, Stanley was also there, but I was eager to save people and he became a deserter, so I had this opportunity.

I suppressed the sneer in my heart and said with embarrassment, "Mr. Gordon, I came to find you. I can't swim and you are the captain of the school swimming team. Of course, I have to give you this opportunity to save the beauty."

Everyone reacted at this time.

"Oh, this is Mr. Gordon. I heard that the Gordon Family and the Cooper Family had a baby marriage. Mr. Gordon, go down and save people!"

"I heard that Miss Cooper and Mr. Gordon were a campus celebrity couple in college. This is not a coincidence. A hero saves a beauty!"

Everyone talked about it. Stanley was a little bit caught in a dilemma.

I wanted to leave in the chaos, but suddenly Anne's cry for help sounded behind me.

"Charles, please save me! I know you like me. If you save me, I will marry you, okay?"

For a moment, everyone looked at me again.

Stanley's eyes were gloomy, "Oh, you don't take it seriously, do you? Anne and I quarreled and were angry, but your lady has spoken. Why don't you hurry down to save people?"

I turned my head to look at the woman in the river. The face I loved for decades, now without wrinkles and traces of time, young and beautiful. But my heart was torn apart the moment I saw her.

She knew I couldn't swim, but she couldn't bear to let her lover take risks.

I suppressed the bitterness and said in embarrassment, "Miss Cooper, I can't swim."

She almost couldn't wait, "Charles, just believe me. The emergency personnel will be here soon, you will be fine."
