LOGINQuick update: I recently learned that my chapter length was longer than the platform’s preferred format. The platform created an optimized version of this book by splitting the longer chapters into shorter ones. If you search for this book, you’ll see another version with more chapters, but it’s the same story. If you’re experiencing technical issues on this version, such as not being able to send gems or gifts, please try doing so on the optimized version instead. We’re currently monitoring it, so it may be changed back if necessary. I wanted to be transparent before anyone spends money unlocking chapters they’ve already read. P.S. This only applies to readers who had this book in their library before July 27, 2026. If you’re a new reader, you’ll most likely only see the optimized version.

FIORELLA’S POV I was Wildfire. I thought he’d mistaken me for someone else the other night, but that wasn’t the case. There were only two recordings of him speaking to the same woman, Dr. Evelyn, yet they told me everything I needed to know. Rhys was a dopamine addict, or he used to be. He’d
FIORELLA’S POV “I’ll be around if you need me, Donna,” Mariah said and left. Celeste opened her mouth to speak. I held up my hand. “If you’re here for what I suspect, save it. I told you I’m not doing this other-woman drama with you.” She stepped closer. “I share your sentiment, Donna, but I d
RHYS’S POV A sigh of relief left me when I saw her photo. I returned my attention to the files in front of me and continued reading through the list of her previous boyfriends and dates. And I wasn’t even on it. Me. Me! The rage coursing through me was overwhelming. It would make me a hypo
FIORELLA’S POV I looked between them. Celeste had a different hairstyle, and as relieved as I was that she wasn’t looking like my doppelgänger today, the expression on her face worried me. She gave me a blank stare before bowing. “Greetings, Donna.” “Buon pomeriggio.” Rosella bowed too. “It’s gr
