Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress
Her sister disappeared on her wedding day.
Eva was left with only two choices: watch both families drown in scandal or put on her sister's wedding dress and marry billionaire CEO Julian Castellan.
She chose the marriage.
She wasn't prepared for Julian to look at her as though he had been waiting five years for her to return.
Five years ago, she had promised to marry him.
Then she disappeared without a word, leaving him with nothing but betrayal and unanswered questions.
Now she was standing in front of him again, wearing another woman's wedding dress and claiming she had never met him.
She has no memory of Julian.
She doesn't remember loving him.
She doesn't remember breaking his heart.
And she certainly doesn't remember the five years that Julian insists they once shared.
Trapped in a marriage built on resentment, she becomes the target of Julian's coldness and his family's cruelty. Yet the more time he spends with her, the more Julian begins to realize that the woman beside him is nothing like the woman he remembers.
As hatred slowly turns into protectiveness, jealousy, and a love neither of them can deny, Eva begins to uncover a conspiracy buried deep within the Castellan empire.
The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their marriage becomes.
Because the woman Julian once believed betrayed him may have been the victim all along.
And when the truth finally tears them apart, Eva will walk away from the Castellan family with nothing left to lose.
Years later, she returns as a woman Julian can no longer control, with a successful empire of her own and one goal in mind: Find the people who stole her past—and make them pay.

Chapter: The Things She Didn't KnowJulian arrived at the restaurant a few minutes before Sophie, choosing a quiet private room away from the main dining area where they could speak without worrying about anyone overhearing them.When Sophie eventually walked in, she paused near the door as though reconsidering whether she should have come at all, but after taking a breath, she closed the door behind her and walked toward the table.Julian watched her take the seat opposite him before asking, “Did you tell her anything?”Sophie frowned, clearly caught off guard by the question. “About what?”“About the wedding.”Her expression changed almost imperceptibly, and for a moment she looked down at her hands before raising her eyes to meet his. “No, I haven't told her.”“Are you planning to?”“I don't know.”Julian's gaze hardened. “You should know.”Sophie gave a quiet, humorless smile. “That's easy for you to say. You're not the one carrying the secret.”“You agreed to keep it.”“I agreed to disappear,” she reminded him, her

Chapter: What She Came Back For“I’ll meet you at home. I want to meet Sophie.”Julian’s expression changed slightly at the mention of her name, and although the reaction lasted only a moment, Eva noticed the way his attention sharpened.He had been about to ask whether she wanted him to come with her, but the look on her face told him this was something she wanted to handle herself.“She asked you to meet her tonight?” he asked.She nodded. “She said she wanted to apologize properly. I don't know what will come from it, but I think I should hear her out.”For a moment, Julian said nothing. He knew how things had been between the sisters, and after everything Sophie had done, he wasn't sure what to make of her sudden change of heart. Still, he could see from Eva’s expression that this mattered to her.“All right,” he finally said. “Just be careful.”“I will.”Eva gave him a small smile before getting into her car. Julian watched until she drove away, but the thought of Sophie remained with him long after the car dis

Chapter: The AuctionEva arrived at the private venue two hours before the first approved guest was expected to arrive. The auction hall was quiet, with the staff moving around the room as they completed the final preparations.Several of the heritage pieces had already been placed inside secured glass displays, while others remained under protective coverings until they were needed. Security personnel were stationed around the venue, checking the entrances and ensuring that only authorized people would have access to the auction area.Eva walked through the preparation area with Henderson, holding the final checklist while she reviewed each section carefully. She went through the provenance documents, valuation reports, bidder credentials, restricted-access list, transfer paperwork, and authentication reports for the lots that were going to be presented that day.There were more than a dozen pieces that required final verification, and she made sure she went through each one rather than relying entirely o

Chapter: What The Dark RememberedJulian was halfway through his morning meeting when Leo walked into his office with a file in his hand.He didn't interrupt immediately. He waited near the door until Julian finished speaking to the person he was on call with, then he placed the file on the desk as soon as the call ended.“Is that it?,” Julian asked, looking at the folder.Leo nodded. “Yes.”Julian opened it. “Who are they?”“Richard Hale, the senior estate administrative coordinator.”Julian's eyes moved down the first page before he looked back at Leo. “And the second?”“Victor.”Julian's expression changed almost imperceptibly.“Victor?”“His access occurred during the same window as the deletion attempt,” Leo explained. “The problem is that we haven't found anything that proves he was responsible. He had a legitimate reason to be in the administrative area that evening, and he could have accessed the system for something completely unrelated.”Julian studied the report in silence before turning to the next page. “

Chapter: What He Finally SaidEva woke before Julian the following morning, but she didn't move immediately. She remained on her side of the bed for a moment, staring at the ceiling and remembering the conversation from the night before.They had gone to sleep only a few feet apart, yet neither of them had made any attempt to close the space between them.Eventually, She pushed the covers aside and got out of bed. She walked toward the bathroom without looking at Julian, but just as she reached the door, his voice stopped her.“Eva.”She heard him clearly, but she continued into the bathroom without answering. She closed the door behind her and turned on the shower, trying to push away the uncomfortable feeling that settled in her chest.When she came out several minutes later, Julian was already awake. He looked at her as she crossed the room, as though he was trying to decide whether to say something again.“About yesterday—”“I'll see you downstairs,” Eva said quietly, cutting him off before he could finish.Sh

Chapter: What She Didn't SayHenderson found Eva at her desk a little after two, carrying a folder that looked as though it had been prepared specifically for her. He placed it carefully in front of her and gave her a look that immediately made her suspicious.“The Chairman just finalized the scheduling for the Restricted Heritage Closed Auction upstairs,” he said. “You’ve officially been assigned as the administrative lead. You’ll be managing the validation ledgers and tracking the approved buyers.”Eva looked up from her screen. “He didn’t mention any of this to me directly.”“Well I don't know why, but he mentioned it to the entire board.” Henderson’s mouth curved slightly, and there was genuine respect in his expression. “Congratulations, Mrs. Castellan. This isn’t a small assignment.”Her eyes dropped to the folder again.Once Henderson had left, she opened it and began going through the documents. The first page contained the official assignment details, and her gaze stopped when she saw her name printed be
