Chapter 7
Frank rubbed my face as if he had just woken up from a dream.
His voice was gentle just like when he woke me up to go to school. “Rio, wake up. It’s time to wake up. You’re already a mother, why do you still sleep so much?”
As he said those words, he was going to pick me up. “Let’s go. Mom and Dad are still waiting for us at home. Let’s go home.”
But Zack took me from his arms and glared at Frank fiercely. “Get lost! She’s my wife!”
Frank turned to look at me and then at Zack in a daze.
He first explained to Zack nicely, “Sir, she’s my wife. We’re already married. You see, this is a token of our relationship.”
I leaned in to look at Frank’s wrist.
It was an old watch. It was a watch that I bought with my first annual salary after I graduated.
After that, Frank became a celebrity, but he still wore the watch at all times.
When Jordan and I got married, Frank had come to find me. He threw the watch on the ground with a smile and said that it was a wedding gift.
I ignored him, but the watch had disappeared since then
It seemed that he went and picked it back up.
I tutted and sighed. ‘He must have been in love with Wendy back then. I can’t believe he still left a space for
- me. What a player!‘
Zack ignored Frank and stubbornly wanted to pick me up. Then he squatted down and said seriously to Liam, whose eyes were red, “Liam, let’s take Mom home.”
Before Liam could nod, Frank punched Zack in the face.
I watched angrily as my body fell to the ground with a loud thud.
“What the fuck? I’m already dead and the two of them still want to torture me?”
Frank pinned Zack on the ground and threw punch after punch.
“I already said she’s my wife! No one can take her from me! You’ve brought this on yourself!”
Zack wasn’t going to just let Frank beat him up like that. He turned around and began fighting back.
“You were divorced a long time ago! She’s my wife! We have a happy family!”
I watched them helplessly and asked the system, “Aren’t they all my ex–husbands? Since when did I become their wife? They’re ruining my reputation!”
The system sighed. “This world will definitely collapse sooner or later.”
Liam’s cries sounded. “Jordan, where are you taking my mom?”

My other two ex–husbands and I all came back to our senses. Jordan, who had been sitting on the floor helplessly, was now stumbling towards the door with my body in his arms.
The system and I drifted over and looked at Jordan, who was in a daze, with a frown.
“What’s he doing?”
Jordan took me to our wedding house seven years ago.
There were two people also frantically knocking on the door.
Jordan placed me on a deckchair in a corner of the living room and sat quietly next to me.
I looked at the deckchair in surprise. It was bought not so long after Jordan and I got married.
At first, Jordan didn’t agree, but I didn’t give up. Then, under my persistence, he finally agreed to buy the deckchair.
Afterwards, he would pout his lips every time he saw me lying on the deckchair and looking out the window.
I thought Jordan would throw it away after we got divorced.
I didn’t expect him to keep it.
From the looks of things, he seemed to have been cleaning it regularly.
“Host, they should still have feelings for you deep down, they just don’t realize it,” the system said.
I nodded nonchalantly and asked, “Can I take this chair with me when I leave?”
“No…” the system replied.
Jordan was still acting crazily and talking to himself. “Rio, do you still remember you said that you wanted to be with me forever on the day we got married? You can’t go back on your word.”
I asked the system impatiently, “How much longer before I can leave?”
“Four hours.”
I couldn’t help but sigh. Did that mean I had to stay behind and watch them act as if they cared about the past?
The door to Jordan’s house was busted open. Zack and Frank walked in with dark faces.”
Frank seemed to be very mad and he kept on rubbing the watch on his wrist. “Give her back to me.”
Jordan, who had been recalling our past, stopped talking and let out a bitter smile. “Rio said something to me before the operation.”
Frank and Zack both turned to look at Jordan.
