Chapter 1

I stood there like the punchline of a cruel joke, surrounded by Elliot and his friends.One of them mocked, "Daniella, have some self-respect! Eli already has someone he likes, yet here you are, desperately trying to be his backup plan. We've never seen anyone as shameless as you."Another voice chimed in, "All these years, and Eli hasn't even given you a second glance. How can you still dream about being with him?" Someone else added, "I'm so sick of watching her follow Eli around like a lost puppy."Their harsh words echoed around me as I kept my eyes fixed on Elliot Coleman, desperately searching for even a hint of hesitation or sympathy in his expression. Sadly, I was left disappointed.Elliot stood with his arms crossed, wearing that signature smirk I once found irresistible. "Come on, Daniella. It's just a joke. You're not going to get upset about it, are you?" He paused before adding with a mocking tone, "Honestly, I didn't expect you to dress up and come here like this.

"Alright. Stop messing with her," Isabelle Stevens, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up.She pointed at the restaurant across and said, "I'm sorry, Daniella. It's my fault—I only wanted them to play a joke on you because I heard there was a girl with the same name as you having a date at that restaurant. If I offended you, I apologize." Before I, the actual victim, could even respond, Elliot's friends jumped to her defense. One exclaimed, "Isabelle, she's trying to steal Eli, and you're apologizing to her?" Another added, "We know you're kind-hearted, but you need to be careful with someone as manipulative as her. Don't let her steal Eli from under your nose."Elliot's friends had always looked down on me. In their eyes, Isabelle was the perfect princess who belonged with Elliot, while I was just an ugly duckling reaching above my station.Ignoring their mockery, I gestured toward the restaurant across. "Did it ever occur to you that I might be that girl on th

Rafael Peterson strode over and naturally took my hand in his. My posture straightened immediately, feeling a surge of confidence with him by my side.Elliot and his friends froze, staring at this unexpected newcomer with varying expressions of shock and disbelief.I smirked and said, "Everyone, meet my husband, Rafael Peterson.""What? No way!" someone exclaimed in disbelief.Rafael smiled politely and nodded at them. "Hello, everyone. I'm Dani's husband." One of Elliot's friends snorted, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he said, "Oh, come on, Daniella. Weren't you into Eli? Did you just grab the first guy you could find?" Ironically, I had Elliot to thank for meeting Rafael. After his first date with Isabelle, I had gone to the mall to clear my head and accidentally bumped into Rafael, staining his clothes. While I apologized profusely, he just laughed it off and invited me for coffee. We exchanged numbers, and one thing led to another.One day, he simply asked, "Would y

During our meal, I happened to glance up and spotted Elliot and Isabelle standing at the restaurant entrance. I could not help but wonder what they were doing here.As I pondered this, my eyes met Elliot's. His face was as white as paper as he stared at me intently. It seemed that he could not accept that I had truly moved on and found happiness with someone else.Suddenly, Elliot broke free from Isabelle and stormed toward our table. He shouted, "Dani, you can't be with him!"Everyone in the restaurant turned to look, curious about the scene unfolding.I frowned at his outburst. "Elliot, what are you doing?"He gave a bitter laugh. "Dani, I admit I was wrong. I can't stand seeing you with someone else. Come back to me—I'll give you anything you want."Less than an hour ago, he had proclaimed eternal love to Isabelle. Yet, he was already changing his tune. I fixed him with a cold stare. "Elliot, I'm not trying to spite you, and this isn't a joke. I'm on a date, and you should l

"If you hadn't been so foolish and self-centered, you wouldn't have pushed such an amazing woman as Dani right into my arms," Rafael stated. Elliot gritted his teeth in frustration. "Dani, I might have gone about it the wrong way, but it was all because I love you. I guarantee no one in this world loves you more than I do."If he truly loved me, he would not have stood by watching me get hurt or confessed to another girl right in front of me. He had merely used love as an excuse to hurt me."Elliot, I don't want this kind of toxic love. I would rather have none of it," I declared firmly before signaling the staff to remove him. As they dragged him away, he kept shouting, "Dani, I won't give up! I'll wait until you forgive me!"After our date ended, I looked at Rafael uncertainly. "I'm sorry... I had no idea things would turn out like this. If you want to break things off—"Rafael covered my mouth before I could finish. "Dani, don't say such things. You have no idea how happy I
