Chapter 3
After I left Gordonâs office, I didnât leave the building immediately. Instead, I went to the strategy department on the seventh floor.
If my memory was correct, Sabrina had just entered the company and joined the strategy team as ant
intern.
In my previous life, Gordon was still flirting with a smallâtime celebrity at this moment. As for Sabrina, I didnât even know she existed yet.
The Holmes Groupâs strategy department was huge and occupled the whole seventh floor. There were many employees, but I saw Sabrina among the huge crowd right away.
She was around five feet three inches tall, slim, and had long hair and fair skin. Her face was small, and her eyes were big. Her attire was oversized and cheap, but it couldnât hide her beauty.
At first glance, Sabrinaâs beauty resembled a flowerâs, and anyone would love her.

She was going through a business briefing in the directorâs office and was holding something in her hands. It was probably a case she had just worked on.
Sabrina looked hopeful, but the case she worked on didnât look like it was what the director wanted.
The director simply glanced through the case after receiving it and furiously threw it back at Sabrina. He fiercely said something to Sabrina, and the domineering attitude made her lower her gaze immediately.
At that moment, Sabrina was nothing more than a rookie who had just entered the company, working
hard to please her superiors.
Seeing how her director was mercilessly criticizing her, I guessed she had to feel terrible inside.
I wondered if these grievances made her brave enough to approach Gordon and reach her peak.
No one here wouldâve guessed that the young lady who was being scolded at this moment would become the Holmes Groupâs ownerâs wife in just a few years.
âHi, miss. May I know who youâre looking for?â a woman in formal attire asked me with a bright smile after
approaching me.
I finally realized I was being rude by staring at Sabrina nonstop. Fortunately, I seldom came to Holmes Group and had never met the employees on this floor. So, they didnât know me.
âItâs nothing. I wanted to talk to your director about some business. Since sheâs busy, Iâll take my leave. first.â
I simply found an excuse and left the strategy team.
I never planned on meeting Sabrina and only wanted to see how she was at that moment.
I was curious how a nobody like Sabrina could capture Gordonâs attention. She even received my parents- inâlawâs affection.
What gave her the right as a fresh graduate who had nothing?
In my previous life, I knew nothing about Sabrina. When I found out about her existence, she had already surpassed all the women whom Gordon had scandals with and captured his heart.
Even though the Holmes family tried to stop Gordon from getting a divorce, he ignored them for Sabrina.
Not only that, he even made the young lady skip her ranks and become his assistant despite the boardâs objection. He also let her handle many of the companyâs classified projects.
His trust in her surpassed everyone around him.
When I started looking into Sabrinaâs identity, It was already too late. Gordon had fallen madly in love with
her.
How did a young mediocre woman with belowâaverage education receive all of Gordonâs love?
It definitely wasnât because of her looks because Gordon had seen countless beautiful women.
I couldnât help thinking about what she told me right before I died.
âDo you know the more miserable and desperate you are, the more men will hate and despise you?â
Even though she was young, her head was clear.
Could it be Gordon liked women who were clearâminded like her?
At that moment, the white piano on Holmes Groupâs first floor caught my attention.
Suddenly, I remembered in my previous life, the Holmes Group would have a grand dinner soon.
There was supposed to be a great pianist there that night. However, the pianist was caught in a terrible
accident when they were on their way to the dinner, so they couldnât make it.
That dinner was crucial for the Holmes Group, and the pianistâs absence affected the flow of the event.
Just as everyone was at a loss, the ordinary Sabrina said she knew how to play the piano and volunteered to play in the pianistâs place.
That was when she managed to capture Gordonâs attention with her impressive performance.
That performance became the start of their interaction.
When I thought of that, I couldnât help smiling bitterly.
When I was young, I was praised for being talented at playing the piano.
My parents spent a fortune to hire a famous teacher so that I could learn to play. Back then, I worked hard
and received an award for participating in an international competition at 11 years old.
If I continued to walk down that path, I definitely wouldâve become the most attractive woman in Sobrough City.
However, I was led astray by my cousin, Mona Morgan, and I stopped listening to my parents. I started skipping school and got addicted to video games, racing, snooker, and all the activities my father didnât

allow me to take part in.
I ruined the plans my father made for me. If I hadnât fallen in love with Gordon and studied hard to get into the university he was in, I wouldâve flunked school as well.
Looking back, even I felt everything I had done back then was a shame.
Fortunately, I was granted a second chance in life. It wasnât too late for me, and I could still make it up in
time.
I was determined to get a divorce from Gordon. However, I could never let Sabrina shine in front of him
that easily.
She ended my life previously and took everything away from me. This time, I would do everything in my power to never let her be together with Gordon.
After I made up my mind, I decided to visit my home.
At that moment, my parents were still alive and healthy. The piano my father spent a fortune on for me
was still in my room as well.
I wanted to stay at home and start practicing. When it was time for that dinner, I would be the one saving
the event.
