“Your husband is celebrating his first love’s anniversary tonight. If you want to know, come to the Grand Aurora Hotel, Main Ballroom.”Rosemary’s chest pounded wildly. Her fingers trembled as she read the mysterious message.“No… this must be some cheap joke,” she whispered. But the more she tried to ignore it, the tighter the knot of curiosity strangled her heart.With hurried steps, she grabbed her coat, clutched her bag, and rushed to the hotel mentioned in the message. A light drizzle dampened the streets, the city lights glowing faintly through the mist.The Grand Aurora Hotel’s ballroom was filled with the clink of crystal glasses and the laughter of guests. A soft orchestra played, while the scent of wine mixed with expensive perfumes lingered in the air.Rosemary’s eyes swept the room. And then… she saw him.Her husband—Adrian.The man stood in an elegant black suit, smiling warmly. In front of him was a young woman in a striking red gown, her face radiant as if the night was

“Rose! Oh my God, your face is so pale. What happened?” Lila’s voice, her closest friend, rang out the moment Rosemary opened the door to her apartment.Rosemary didn’t answer. Her body swayed, the rain-soaked coat nearly sliding off her shoulders. She walked past the living room with vacant eyes, as if her soul had been left behind in that hotel ballroom.“Rosemary! Hey, answer me!” Lila rushed after her, grabbing her arm. “You’re scaring me.”Rosemary suddenly stopped, her shoulders trembling. A broken whisper escaped her lips.“He… divorced me. In front of everyone.”Lila froze. “What?!”Rosemary slowly turned, tears streaming down her face. “Adrian… my husband… he gave a diamond necklace to another woman. And then… he said, ‘from tonight, I divorce you.’ Everyone laughed at me, Lila. They laughed at me like I was some kind of clown!”Her sobs erupted. She collapsed onto the floor, covering her face with both hands.“Oh God…” Lila bent down, wrapping her arms around her trembling f

“Knock… knock… knock!”The sound of Rosemary’s hand rapping against the door echoed through the house she once called home. Her fingers trembled—not from fear, but from a mixture of anger and bitter resolve.The door swung open hard. Adrian stood there, his face tense.“Rosemary?” His voice was heavy, laced with scorn. “So, you finally decided to show up.”Rosemary’s eyes were cold. “I came to collect my things. Leave the rest here—I don’t care.”Adrian let out a mocking chuckle, folding his arms across his chest. “Your things? You disappear for two days without a word, and now you show up with that pathetic face, claiming you just want to get your belongings? Do you think I believe that?”Rosemary lifted her chin, forcing down the pain in her chest. “I didn’t disappear. I needed time after the humiliation you put me through. I won’t spend another night under the same roof as a man like you.”Adrian stepped forward, his eyes sharp and cutting. “Humiliation? Don’t blame me for your own

The shrill ring of a phone echoed through Adrian’s luxurious office. He had just taken a sip of wine when the name Markus – Personal Assistant flashed across the screen. With irritation, Adrian pressed the answer button.“Yes, Markus. What is it?” His voice was heavy, dripping with impatience.On the other end, Markus’s tone was urgent and laced with worry.“Sir Adrian… we have a serious problem. The launch of the gown collection is in two days—our design team’s work has been rejected by the investors.”Adrian’s brows furrowed instantly. “Rejected? What do you mean rejected? Didn’t we send them the final revisions last week?”Markus swallowed audibly. “Yes, sir. But the investors said the designs… lack the soul they’re looking for. They called them stiff, lifeless.”Adrian rose from his chair, pacing back and forth as his face flushed with heat. “Stiff? Lifeless? What kind of nonsense is that? They were the ones who approved the initial concept in the first place!”Markus’s voice drop

The crystal chandeliers of the grand hotel ballroom sparkled, soft music flowing from the live band in the corner. That night was supposed to be a glittering celebration: the grand launch of Adrian Corp’s gown collection.Guests arrived in high spirits. Major investors filled the front row, their faces glowing with expectation. Adrian stood at the side of the stage, his black suit immaculate, a thin smile masking the storm of unease within him.Beside him, Cassandra, radiant in her glamorous gown, leaned closer and whispered with utter confidence.“Relax, Adrian. Tonight they will forget Rosemary. Once they see my designs, everyone will know who truly deserves to be by your side.”Adrian only gave a brief nod, though his heartbeat thundered in his chest. He remembered the investor’s chilling warning: “If the quality does not match Rosemary’s, our partnership is over.”The spotlight hit the stage. The MC’s voice rang out with enthusiasm:“Ladies and gentlemen, the moment we’ve all been

“Adrian! You need to see this right now!”Markus’s voice was heavy as he shoved open the office door without knocking. His hand gripped a stack of documents, his face tense.Adrian, who was sipping his coffee, immediately looked up, his brow furrowed. “What now? Don’t make my headache worse!”Markus slammed the files onto the desk. “This is the loss report after the launching two days ago. Did you really think I’d stay quiet while everyone abandons this company?”Adrian glanced lazily at the documents, then set his cup down. “I know the investors are angry. I can explain.”“Explain?” Markus scoffed bitterly. “Can you explain how fifty billion rupiah went up in smoke for failed gowns? Or maybe you can explain why every single investor pulled their funds all at once? They’re even demanding their money back!”Adrian stood abruptly, his voice rising. “I can’t return that money! It’s already been spent on premium fabrics and promotions! Do you think I’m a thief?”Markus stared him down, un

“Adrian, you need to swallow this reality right now!”Markus slammed the financial report folder onto the glass desk in Adrian’s office. His voice cracked, trembling with barely contained rage. “This company is on the brink of bankruptcy! The only way out is to find Rosemary.”Adrian, slouched in his chair with hollow eyes and a weary face, straightened immediately. “Stop saying her name in front of me!” he barked, his voice hoarse but still dripping with pride.Markus stared at him sharply, unflinching. “I don’t care about your ego. You can hate her for the rest of your life, but the truth is crystal clear: without Rosemary, Adrian Corp is dead. Every investor has said the same thing.”Adrian stood, dragging his heavy steps toward the wide window. His gaze was empty as he looked out at the city below. “I can hire another designer. The world is full of talent.”Markus let out a harsh scoff. “If that’s true, then why hasn’t a single investor believed in those other designers? Why do th

“Rosemary! Open this door, I know you’re inside!”Adrian stood in front of a modest house on the outskirts of the city, pounding on the brown wooden door with desperate fists. His breathing was ragged, his suit drenched from the rain that had only just ceased.Inside, footsteps approached. Slowly, the door creaked open, revealing Rosemary. Her hair fell loosely around her shoulders, her face bare of makeup yet effortlessly graceful. But her eyes—those once warm and loving eyes—were now cold, sharp as blades.“What do you want now, Adrian?” she asked flatly, voice devoid of emotion.“I need to talk to you. Please, give me a moment,” Adrian pleaded, bracing his hand against the door so it wouldn’t close again.Rosemary sighed, fighting to hold back the storm within. “I have nothing to do with you. Leave, before I lose my patience.”“I’m not leaving until you hear me out,” Adrian’s voice rose, soaked in desperation.Her gaze hardened. Then she pulled the door wider. “Fine. Come in. Say w

“Pour me another.”Adrian’s voice was hoarse, his eyes bloodshot, his breath reeking of alcohol. He slumped deep into the black leather sofa of his office, shirt half unbuttoned, tie loosened, the half-empty bottle of whiskey sitting on the low table before him.Markus stood by the door, his expression heavy with disappointment. “That’s enough, Adrian. You’ve had too much already.”Adrian turned his hollow gaze toward him. “Do you think if I stop drinking, I’ll forget all of this? No, Markus. The company is falling apart, the investors are gone, and Rosemary…” his throat tightened, his voice breaking, “Rosemary slammed the door in my face. She would rather see me ruined than ever come back.”Markus pulled a chair over and sat across from him. “Adrian, listen to me. You have to start accepting reality. Rosemary may never come back. You can beg, kneel, even bleed yourself dry—but she’s chosen her path.”Adrian slammed his glass onto the table, amber liquid spilling. “You think I don’t k

“This report has to be processed immediately, Markus. I don’t care how you do it, as long as we can still breathe next month.”Adrian’s voice was firm, though his eyes were bloodshot and his face pale. He sat behind his desk, piles of documents scattered, hurried signatures covering every sheet.Markus studied him carefully. “You really want to go through with this without Rosemary?”Adrian lifted his head, his jaw tightening. “Yes. If she doesn’t want to come back, then I have to move forward alone. I can’t keep hoping for someone who has already made it clear she wants nothing to do with me.”Markus sighed, then placed a new folder on the desk. “The smaller investors are still willing to try, but their terms are tough. They demand full transparency and weekly reports. They don’t fully trust you.”Adrian clenched his fists. “Let them doubt. I’ll prove I can survive.”---That night, the office lights were still on. Adrian sat alone, his worn-out shirt sticking to his skin, eyes glued
