Chapter 1
On the day of the UN talks, I noticed that my translator husband was wearing a new smartwatch on his wrist.
“It’s just a health tracker from Bailey,” my husband, Logan, explained dismissively.
“At least someone cares about my wellbeing.”
The barb was clear: his ex cared more than I did.
But something felt off.
So I secretly checked during his afternoon nap and discovered a listening device on that watch.
After reporting it to security, I sacrificed my hard–earned promotion to protect him from punishment.
Meanwhile, Bailey became a fugitive, eventually dying in a car crash while evading authorities.
Logan claimed she got what she deserved, while showing me even more care and attention.
But behind the scenes, he deliberately leaked my translation materials, resulting in my detainment
as a suspected foreign spy.
As I faced the firing squad, he screamed at the top of his lungs:
“Autumn! It was YOU who planted that listening device all along! You were always jealous of Bailey
and wanted her dead!”
“I regret ever choosing you over her. You deserve to burn in hell for what you did to Bailey!”
When I opened my eyes again, I’d been reborn to the day Bailey gave him that watch.
This time, I just let him continue keep that.damn watch and directly signed our divorce papers.
Since he’s so eager to go to prison with his spy ex–girlfriend, then I’ll give him what he wants!

“Autumn, seriously? Do you always have to make such a big deal out of nothing? You really think Bailey would try to hurt me? Come on!”
Logan Reed’s irritated growl yanked me back from the shock of being reborn.
Our commotion had also caught the attention of our team members.
“Director Reed, I don’t believe that smartwatch was included in your security disclosure,” Jackson, a
team member, kindly reminded him.
Logan’s brow furrowed defensively.
“It’s a personal gift. Doesn’t require disclosure.”
“But regulations clearly state-”

“Enough,” Logan cut him off sharply. “I’m leading this mission. If there’s any issue, I’ll take responsibility.”
Jackson looked uncomfortably in my direction, seeking support.
I lowered my gaze as memories from my previous life flooded back.
I had worried his oversight might lead to serious consequences, so I secretly inspected the watch.
After discovering the listening device, I traded my hard–earned promotion–one I’d waited ten years for–to protect him from punishment.
My reward? His relentless vengeance.
I could never forget the disgust, hatred, satisfaction, and callous amusement in his eyes as I faced death in my previous life.
A flash of hatred crossed my eyes, but I quickly masked it.
“I’m sure Director Reed knows what he’s doing,” I said smoothly. “We shouldn’t concern ourselves
with it.”
Noticing my unexpected compliance, Logan’s expression softened considerably.
Just then, Bailey Wright rushed over, luggage in tow, breathlessly announcing, “Logan! Take me with you. I haven’t been abroad in ages.”

“Absolutely not,” Jackson responded immediately. “You’re just an external consultant without clearance for a mission of this significance.”
“Besides, the delegation list was personally approved by the Director–General. Not even Director Reed has authority to add or remove personnel.”
Bailey’s eyes immediately welled with tears, her expression the picture of wounded innocence.
“Logan, I can’t believe you don’t even have the authority to add an accompanying staff member,” she sniffled. “But what I really don’t understand is why your team members keep looking at your wife for approval. Anyone would think Autumn’s the REAL team leader here!”
Hearing this, Logan’s face suddenly flushed with anger.
“Who’s the damn team leader here–me or Autumn?” he snapped, glaring at the group. “Since you all seem to prefer taking orders from her, maybe I should ask the Director–General to replace the entire
team!”
His outburst silenced everyone. After a moment, he continued in a slightly calmer tone.
“It’s precisely because Bailey is an external staff member that she needs this rare learning opportunity even more. How else will she gain experience and improve?”
“She’s coming with us.’
“That violates protocol,” I finally looked up, my voice even.
Logan’s expression darkened again. He fixed his gaze on me, his eyes burning with undisguised fury and warning.
“I know you’re jealous of Bailey, but please keep your personal feelings out of professional matters.”
“Anyone who disagrees can voluntarily withdraw from this assignment!”
The team members exchanged alarmed glances.
This opportunity was exceptionally rare–everyone wanted to perform well to position themselves for future promotions.
Logan coldly surveyed the group, his tone dripping with arrogance:
“If you don’t want to quit, shut your mouths. Otherwise, pack your things and GET OUT of the

Translation Bureau.”
I suppressed my churning emotions and remained silent.
Logan Reed, this time I won’t interfere.
Well, I couldn’t wait to see how this plays out for you.
