CEO's Reborn Wife

Regarding Jillian Carter’s death, everyone in the Carter Family felt regret; however, apart from the initial grief, gradually, everyone began to understand.

Jillian Carter’s death cannot erase the damage she caused to others while she was alive, so while they regret her passing, they are not overly pained.

Because, if they returned to back then, faced with the same situations, they would still make the same choices.

The mistake was Jillian Carter’s, not theirs.

”The mistake is mine,” Joseph Shaw shook his head, ”If after marriage I could have restrained her as a husband, instead of indulging her and helping her, she might not have reached the point she did today.”

It was he, who out of love indulged her at first, unwilling to see her unhappy; at that time, Joseph Shaw never thought about controlling her.

If, at first, he could have been ruthless enough to restrain her, Jillian Carter might not have reached this point.

His mistake was being too indulgent at first, and ultimately, abandoning her, leaving her alone in a desolate world.

”How lonely she must have been while waiting for death in the cold water,” Joseph Shaw’s fingertips gently cupped Jillian Carter’s face.

What he felt at the touch, was only cold, a lifeless temperature.

”We couldn’t control her, we simply couldn’t control her,” Granny Carter lamented, ”It’s not that we didn’t try to restrain her, not that we didn’t try to forcefully control her, but it simply didn’t work.”

Granny Carter even brought Jillian Carter to the countryside to personally watch over her.

But it was useless.

Jillian Carter’s own heart was wild; she could think of one hundred ways to escape the constraints.

Just like her marriage to Joseph Shaw, from the beginning, Granny Carter understood that Jillian Carter was merely using Joseph Shaw, marrying him as a way to escape the countryside.

”Joseph, don’t take all the blame on yourself; if there is blame, it’s that we failed to educate this child properly, leading her to commit so many wrongs, even dragging you into it,” Old Sir Carter earnestly pulled Joseph Shaw aside, ”For those alive, the greatest taboo is to mistake others’ faults for your own, understand?”

”It’s not that we didn’t try to pull her back from the wrong path, we tried, but none of us could succeed,” Granny Carter feared Joseph Shaw would succumb to despair over Jillian Carter’s death.

In the marriage between Joseph Shaw and Jillian Carter, unlike Jillian’s initial intention was just to use, Joseph Shaw was genuinely moved and invested.

Joseph Shaw truly loved Jillian Carter, loved her deeply, almost losing himself, which led him to indulge her time and again.

Only to later, love turning into hate, leaving her heartless and indifferent to him.

In the world of love, it’s either mutual affection.

Or, one deep in love always giving, while the favored one continues to squander.

An unchanging path in matters of love, most people are on the latter route.

The next morning after Joseph Shaw returned, very early, Jillian Carter was cremated.

Yesterday evening, the night deep and dew heavy, but Joseph Shaw didn’t even change his clothes, staying with Jillian Carter for one last night.

Joseph Shaw took away Jillian Carter’s ashes; he thought that growing up and dying in such a place, Jillian Carter wouldn’t want to stay there, so he brought her back to his hometown.

The village hardly known to others.

Spring, everything turns green, flowers bloom, and willows rejuvenate gradually.
