After Three Years of Love, His Vicious First Love Returns Chapter 1

Adrian and I had been in love for three years, and he said he would be with me for a lifetime.

Until his lover accidentally killed someone, he coldly told me,

"Emma, you and she both have alibis. She's weak, you go to prison for her."

After being released from prison, all I wanted was to leave him.

He stabbed the knife into his heart.

"With my life for his, will he stay and still love me?"

——

On the day I was released from prison, I wrapped my clothes tightly around myself.

It was summer, a warm season, but I felt so cold.

Adrian's assistant, Jaelyn, opened the car door for me.

"Mrs. Andrews, I'm here to pick you up."

"Where's Mr. Andrews?"

"Mr. Andrews is with Ms. Garden." Realizing she had misspoken, the assistant immediately corrected herself, "Mr. Andrews is in a meeting."

I laughed at myself in my heart. Even though I knew the outcome, I didn't want to give up and hope for other answers.

Was it more important to get a fiancée he didn't love out of prison than to spend time with his beloved woman?

Besides, it was him who personally sent me to prison as a scapegoat for Ace.

One month before my wedding with Adrian, he received a call from Ace.

On the other side of the phone, she cried tearfully, telling him about all kinds of misfortunes since she got married, as well as the fact that she had accidentally killed her husband when she had suffered domestic violence.

Adrian frowned, his face growing darker, completely ignoring how our wedding invitation had been deformed by his tightly clenched fist.

I knew that was a sign that he cared about someone.

His voice trembled slightly and said, "Ace, wait for me where you are."

Adrian stood up, and I hurriedly grabbed his hand, "Are you really going? Can't you send your assistant?"

Adrian withdrew his hand and gently kissed my forehead.

"Be good, I'll be back soon."

A while later?

In my memory, whenever Ace called Adrian, he would rush over, sometimes even disappearing for days.

Every time I called him, he would say that he was having a meeting at the company.

I knew, he was with Ace.

He probably loved me, as long as Ace didn't show up.

In the past, I could turn a blind eye to it, but now we are getting married.

I stood up and picked up my jacket.

"I'll go with you."

Next month is our wedding. I don't want my husband to be the savior of other girls before we get married.

Besides, this girl is Adrian's first love.

Even though she once despised Adrian for having no money and unhesitatingly left him to marry a local rich second generation, Adrian still couldn't let her go.

When Adrian and I arrived, Ace was covered in blood, trembling in the corner.

She looked up, tears in her eyes, looking at Adrian.

"Adrian."

Adrian pretended to be calm on the surface, but didn't notice he was holding my hand tighter.

"Adrian, three years ago, I didn't want to marry him, but my mother was sick. At that time, you didn't have much money, I didn't want to drag you down, so I chose to marry him. The person I love has always been you."

Fu Jinyan could no longer control his emotions. He hurriedly shook off my hand and completely ignored me as I staggered back a few steps, hitting the corner of the table with my elbow joint.

Adrian believed such a lame excuse without hesitation.

He draped his coat over Ace, who was shivering, and said softly,

"You've had a hard time all these years, Ace."

Ace leaned her head against Adrian's chest, crying, and gently tugged at Adrian's shirt collar.

"Unfortunately, you're getting married, and I have to go to jail. We are destined to miss each other."

"No, I have a way." Adrian gently comforted her, his tone full of responsibility and care, completely forgetting that I was his fiancée.

I curled my still aching arm and glanced at Adrian.

"Ms. Garden, you killed someone, but there are extenuating circumstances. Adrian and I will find the best lawyer for you to seek a reduced sentence. We will also take care of your family."

This sentence took all my strength.

I was gambling, betting on whether Adrian would choose me or Ace.

But I didn't wait for Ace's answer, only heard Adrian's voice.

"Emma, you said that you would do anything I asked you to."

He lifted his head to look at me. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness and coldness that I had never seen before.

"Ace is in poor health, and you have an alibi. You go to prison for Ace."

Adrian ignored my pleas and cries, firmly holding my hand, leaving my fingerprints on the murder weapon, and threatened me with my family to change my testimony.

In the end, I lost to Ace. As long as she appeared, I would always lose.
