Chapter 1 of The Day the White Moonlight Returned
: The White Moonlight Returns
The day his White Moonlight returned to the country, my Overbearing CEO husband went to the airport to greet her. The moment he arrived, he received a call notifying him of my car accident.
He rushed home in a panic, only to learn that I had died instantly in the crash and had already been taken to the crematorium.
My brother cursed him out, "My sister loved you so much! How could you do this to her!"
In reality, my brother had arranged for me to move to a new city and start over. The so-called "ashes" were just Milk Powder.
I heard my Overbearing CEO husband was heartbroken for days, missed me constantly, and even vowed to never marry again.
That is, until his dog knocked over my Urn and started happily gobbling up my "ashes."
That day, he immediately put out a nationwide reward of 10 million dollars for my whereabouts.

My Overbearing CEO husband has always had an unforgettable White Moonlight in his heart.
I'd always felt that liking someone when you're young isn't a big deal.
Until I discovered the lingering affection he still held for his White Moonlight.
He thought he'd hidden it well, but I found out anyway.
I found a photo in a drawer in his study.
It wasn't just the two of them in the picture.
But there was an air between them that no one else could break into.
What's more, I found a love letter underneath the photo.
Out of courtesy, I didn't open it.
But I understood everything.
Why his friends never gave me the time of day.
And why he was always so lukewarm toward me.
Even the maids in our home would gossip about me in private.
"I think Miss Harrow and Mr. Valerius are a better match."
"Yeah, it's a shame how fate messes with people."
"Hey, keep it down. If Miss Sterling hears you, she'll give us an earful."
The moment I stepped out of my room today, I heard the maids gossiping.
If I remember correctly, I had never once raised my voice to them since the day I moved into this house.
I know that when you're down, everyone is quick to kick you.
I didn't want to confront Ian Valerius directly.
He would just think I was being unreasonable again.
And I would find that humiliating.
Ian Valerius's White Moonlight was named Rowan Harrow.
Her beauty seemed to be one of her most trivial assets.
She went to study abroad in high school.
In college, she racked up a string of awards.
Whenever I looked her up privately, all I found were words of praise.
Before getting married, I'd believed that even without love, we could live together with mutual respect.
So once I was sure his White Moonlight wouldn't show up to cause trouble, I put the matter out of my mind.
I didn't really care who was in his heart.
But that was on the condition that his White Moonlight would never appear in our lives again.
I received the latest update from the private investigator I'd hired.
Ian Valerius's White Moonlight was returning to the country soon.
'In that case, it's time for me to give up the title of Mrs. Valerius.'
I turned and went back into my room.
'There's no point in dwelling on who was right or wrong anymore.'
Pushing down my frustration, I lay on the bed.
I pondered how I was going to escape this marriage.
But the more I thought about it, the more agitated I became. 'So all this time, in everyone else's eyes, I was the villain who had broken up the happy couple.'
So I decided to go all in, landing on the most decisive solution.
'Fake my own death and escape.'
'It's the fastest, best option.'
'As for how to pull it off, I'm sure my brother will handle it for me.'
