Chapter 001

With each passing second, Fatima's smile slowly faded away as the name rang in her head. She wished she had heard wrong, but looking at the crowd, witnessing the silence and the whispers from the few guests she and her husband had invited to watch them retake their vows, it was obvious she had not heard wrong. Her husband had said Leslie, not Fatima. At the church doors were the journalists holding their cameras in position. She was sure they had captured everything, and she knew very well she was never going to get that footage back. Some of it might have already been on live television. Her husband was a popular businessman in New York. He had intentionally invited the press, but she was sure he had not seen this coming himself. Fatima felt weak in the knees, as if she was about to faint, when the priest's voice pulled her back to herself. He asked if he should go again, if he should ask her husband whether he took her as his wife, because the first two times he had asked, her h

Chapter 002

Fatima remained in the car, watching her husband practically undress another woman outside his company building. Luckily, it was a holiday and no one else was around to witness it. The humiliation would have been far worse if people had seen this happening on her supposed wedding day.She did not move. She kept watching as he picked the woman up, half naked, and carried her inside the building. At that moment, Fatima wanted to step out of the car and follow them in, but something stopped her. Instead, she asked Jonathan to start the car while she cried her eyes out, not even caring that she was in front of her husband’s chauffeur. She was not thinking straight at that moment.When the car came to a stop and she realized they had arrived at their mansion, she wiped her tears and asked Jonathan for a favor, not to tell her husband that they had seen him.“I know it is not my place, but I think you should confront him,” Jonathan said. He loved his boss and was grateful to him. His life h

Chapter 003

Inside the master bedroom of the Ashford mansion, four people occupied the same space, yet each of them was lost in a different world. Fatima lay on the bed, her body still, her breathing shallow. Even in unconsciousness, her face looked strained, as though her body was fighting to hold on. She was suspended between awareness and darkness, her chest rising with effort, as if living itself had become something she had to work for. Beside the bed stood a man in a white coat, he was the doctor. The man moved with calm precision, checking her vitals, adjusting his stethoscope, focused only on keeping her alive. To him, this was a patient, a body that had collapsed, a problem that needed solving. Nothing more, nothing less. A few steps away was Nicholas. He stood near the window, his hands clenched, his jaw tight, staring outside without seeing anything at all. Confusion and guilt twisted inside him, neither settling, neither giving him peace. He did not understand how this had happene

Chapter 004

Standing up from the bed, Fatima walked out, heading straight for the guestroom, ignoring the dull ache pounding through her head. Each step felt heavier than the last, but she kept moving until she reached the door. That was where her courage finally faltered. She could hear them. Moans. Soft gasps. The low, unmistakable sounds of two bodies lost in each other. For a moment, it felt like they were mocking her, even though she knew they weren’t thinking about her at all. They were simply giving in to their lust, careless and unashamed, while her world was quietly falling apart just a few feet away. Her knees wobbled. She raised her hand to push the already ajar door open, then stopped herself. She couldn’t do this like this. Not yet. Not without something to steady her, something to dull the sharp edge of the pain slicing through her chest. She needed a drink. Turning away, she forced herself to walk downstairs. When she reached the kitchen, she paused in the doorway, her

Chapter 005

Nicholas had gathered so much courage following his wife downstairs, but the moment she stopped in the kitchen, that courage drained out of him. He paused by the doorway, one hand sliding to the back of his head, fingers digging into his hair. He had never prepared for a moment like this. Never imagined it would come to this. And he knew, he knew too well, that one wrong move could destroy everything he had been desperately keeping under control for the past years. ‘You’re her whole world,’ he reminded himself silently. ‘She can’t lose you.’ Clinging to that thought, he forced himself to move, crossing toward the dining table while Fatima remained by the kitchen sink, washing dishes. “Leslie will leave,” he said at last. His voice came out barely above a whisper. His fingers slid along the back of a chair, hesitating, unsure whether to sit. “That’s good.” Fatima didn’t turn to look at him. Still, her voice carried something, steady, controlled, but with the faintest edge o

Chapter 006

“Fatima, don’t walk away like this,” he said, his voice tight. “We haven’t finished talking.”She didn’t turn around. “We finished the moment you lied to me.”“That’s not fair,” he shot back.Fatima closed the bedroom door and stood still for a moment.The world was quiet again.Somewhere downstairs, she could hear Nicholas moving around, his voice low, hurried. As if logistics mattered more than betrayal.She walked toward the window and stared at the rain sliding down the glass.Three years.The number no longer felt abstract. It felt physical—like a weight pressing against her ribs.The door opened without a knock.Leslie stepped in.Fatima stared at her. “You know my bedroom passcode?”Leslie rolled her eyes, amused. Of course she did. All those times Fatima had been at work, all those hours Nicholas claimed they were busy, what else did she think they’d been doing?“I’m not leaving until we talk,” Leslie said quietly. “Unless you want the kids to wake up.”Fatima hesitated, then

Chapter 007-8

The night passed slowly, painfully, but she managed.By morning, Fatima had the kids ready for school. Even Wave went to a daycare facility. Mrs. Wilson had breakfast ready, and Fatima sat with the kids as they ate. She had no appetite, but before they could ask her questions, she forced herself to eat anyway.Mrs. Wilson informed her that her husband had already left by the time she arrived and that Mr. Kingston was staying in one of the guestrooms. “I’ll take breakfast to him now,” Mrs. Wilson said.Fatima stopped her gently and asked her to take it after they had all left. She whispered so the kids wouldn’t hear. She didn’t want them to know he was there, they would want to see him, and she didn’t want them to see him like that.After breakfast, they were ready to go. The storm had calmed, though it was still raining lightly. Fatima drove the kids to school and then headed to work.When she arrived, she found her office decorated.“You got an upgrade,” Gisele said excitedly. “They

Chapter 009

Fatima took in three slow breaths, forcing her chest to rise and fall until the tightness eased just a little. Ian was her husband’s good friend, well, soon-to-be ex-husband, but that didn’t excuse his behavior. Or hers. Yes, her marriage was down the drain, but even if she felt she no longer owed Nicholas loyalty, Ian was not the man she wanted to entangle herself with. Everyone knew Ian. Every weekend he was on the news or trending online with a different woman on his arm. Figures, considering he owned one of the most popular clubs in the city. His world was loud, reckless, and dangerous. The kind of danger she could never allow into her life, not when she wasn’t just living for herself. She had children. “Okay?” Ian tilted his head, smacking his bottom lip slightly, intrigued that she hadn’t reacted the way he expected. “Please put your shirt back on,” Fatima said, turning her face away. As if that wasn’t enough, she lifted a hand to shield her eyes. “I beg your pardo

Chapter 010

Leslie gasped dramatically, covering her mouth.“Baby… um, Nic?” she turned to him, clearly expecting him to put Fatima in her place. Because as far as Leslie was concerned, this was her home now.And she intended to stay.Leslie was growing tired of waiting for Nicholas to put Fatima in her place, to remind her that he had paid most of the money for the house, so she had no right to act like she owned it. Since he wasn't doing it, she decided to do it herself. “Listen, Fatima,” Leslie said, folding her arms. “I get that you’re in a bit of a pickle, but…” “I wonder who put me in that pickle,” Fatima snapped. She couldn’t take Leslie anymore. “I also know you can’t stand me.” “Can’t stand you?” Fatima laughed bitterly. “Bitch, I can’t even sit you.” “Okay, no name-calling, please,” Nicholas finally stepped in. Fatima chuckled, a dry, humorless sound, at how quickly he came to his mistress’s defense. She had never been the kind of woman to call anyone out of their name. But

Chapter 011

New York was a city of luxury, danger, and the kind of nightlife that made people forget the world outside. Noir was one of its best clubs, a place for the elite to unwind, and it just so happened to be owned by Ian Kingston, one of the city’s top billionaires. It was a Monday evening, and unlike other clubs, Noir was packed. Some people came to have fun, others for the show; tonight, one of the city’s most popular artists was performing. Ian, the owner, sat at one of the VIP tables across from a heavily tattooed Russian man who was puffing on a cigar as they discussed business. “The container will arrive at midnight,” the man said. Ian heard the words but wasn’t focused. His mind kept drifting back to the afternoon, to her. He couldn’t understand why he was so drawn to that woman. It made no sense. “I hear Rafael is after you. Are you sure this won’t affect our business?” the man asked, snapping Ian back. Rafael, the Italian mafia man who had sent someone after him, who had shot hi
