One week passed in a blur, and before Brielle knew it, the day of the party had arrived. She stood in front of the mirror inside one of the large guest rooms of the Rayne mansion, her heart fluttering as excitement filled her. The room was filled with laughter and chatter as Ella and Vivian fussed over her.Her eyes roamed over the dress Ethan had picked out for her. It was a teardrop silver gown that flowed gracefully to the floor, shimmering under the soft lights of the chandelier. The fabric hugged her figure in just the right places before falling like liquid silk. Brielle had to admit that Ethan’s taste in dresses had grown on her lately. He seemed to know exactly what would suit her body and her personality.Around her neck, she wore the blue sapphire necklace she had purchased the previous week. The way it glimmered against her skin made her feel like a queen. The hairstylist had pinned her hair into a stylish bun that revealed her slender neckline and emphasized the necklace.

Ethan rubbed the back of his neck as he excused himself from Brielle. He couldn’t even pretend to smile as he claimed that he just needed a little fresh air. Brielle nodded, still not convinced, but she allowed him to go.He walked out of the crowded hall, his chest rising and falling heavily as if the walls had been closing in on him. His footsteps echoed against the marble floor until he reached the open balcony. The night breeze hit his skin, cool and soothing, but it did nothing to ease the fire of confusion raging inside him.With trembling hands, he yanked at his tie, loosening it until it dangled carelessly around his neck. His jaw clenched hard, his eyes fixed on the distant city lights. Each passing second dug deeper into his chest. He could not believe she had walked back into his life, not after all these years, not after he had finally begun to put himself back together.Behind him, soft heels clicked against the floor. Then came a voice, sweet, sultry, and coated in memor

The atmosphere in the hall had turned suffocating after Ella’s outburst. Her words still hung in the air, heavy and unforgiving. People stood frozen in their spots, staring at Ethan like he was a criminal who had just been caught. Scarlett leaned back into the wall where she stood, watching the whole scene, crossing her slender legs, and enjoyed the chaos she had brewed. She didn’t even have to say a word. Just her presence had been enough to send the entire Rayne family spiraling into disgrace. “Ethan…” Vivian’s voice cracked, breaking the silence. “For heaven’s sake, say something. Tell us this isn’t true.” But Ethan didn’t lift his head. His jaw clenched hard, veins standing out in his neck. His hands shook faintly at his sides, but his lips remained sealed. The silence dragged on painfully. It was like waiting for a man on trial to defend himself, only to realize he had already accepted the verdict. “Coward!” Ella spat in disgust. Ethan finally raised his head, but ther

A FEW HOURS LATERBrielle closed the file in her hands with a little more force than necessary, her fingers trembling as she pushed it aside. The session with Scarlett had drained her. Sitting across from that woman, watching her feign innocence while pretending to be a patient, was like swallowing poison with a smile. Every word Scarlett spoke was laced with sweet lies, and Brielle could feel the mocking glint hidden in her eyes.She leaned back in her chair, closing her eyes for a moment. Her chest rose and fell quickly, her heart refusing to calm down.“She’s here to play games. She’s here to ruin me. I won’t let her. I won’t let them win.” She whispered to herself.Brielle pressed her palm against her belly, as though the gesture could shield her child from the storm Scarlett carried with her presence.“Brielle?”Her head lifted at the sound of her name. Dr. Lorey stood at the doorway, her short dark hair perfectly in place, her white coat swaying lightly as she stepped inside.“Y

THE NEXT DAYThe day had barely started, but Ethan already felt like it was dragging him under. He sat in his office, head heavy, staring at papers he wasn’t even reading. His mind was somewhere else, back at Brielle’s door, hearing nothing but silence after pounding and begging for her to let him in.That silence still cut through him.She didn’t just shut the door on him. She shut her heart, too.He could feel it. She wasn’t letting him back into her life this time around. Ethan leaned back in his chair, running his hand over his face. His chest was tight, like someone had tied a rope around it and kept pulling. He hadn’t slept. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw Brielle crying, saw the pain in her eyes, and he knew he had put it there.A knock on the door pulled him out of his daze.He frowned and looked toward the door. His secretary hadn’t buzzed to announce anyone, so who—The door opened.And there she was.Scarlett.The woman who had ruined his life twice with her mere pre
