Chapter 1

Five years into our marriage, Charles Lawrence was a force to be reckoned with in the outside world. At home, he was the epitome of kindness and thoughtfulness, never pressuring me into anything I did not want to do.However, when I showed up at the party, pregnancy test report in hand, ready to drop a happy bombshell on him, I was the one who got the shock of a lifetime: he had already trashed our vows.Well, if that was how it was going to be, I was done for good.From then on, I lived for myself, and only myself....I pocketed my phone, my hands shaking so hard that I could barely grip it. I felt like I had been dunked in a tub of ice, frozen from the inside out.There was Charles, not even trying to hide it, cozying up to Fiona Cooper for all to see. The crowd was eating it up, chanting Fiona's name, some even daring them to seal the show with a kiss.The room was a roar of voices.I stared at the man who had been all sweet whispers and cuddles with me just last night, the

I could not tear my eyes away from Charles's grin, that grin I knew better than anyone. At this point, it seemed miles away, like it belonged to a stranger.The dam burst, and the tears I had been holding back all night came flooding out.The ping of a text message cut through my sobs, sounding more annoying than ever. I wiped my face in a mess and checked the screen.It was from a number that seemed vaguely familiar, with a picture of Charles, bare-chested and asleep.The caption twisted the knife. [He said I'll be the real Mrs. Lawrence soon.]I did not need to guess; it was Fiona's doing.There, on Charles's chest, was my name in initials, a tattoo he once said meant I was the only one in his heart. All that, yet he was sound asleep in another woman's bed, my name marked up with love bites. The irony was not lost on me.I took shallow breaths, trying to steady myself with the thought that in just three days, I would be done with Charles for good. It was a small comfort agains

The living room was a disaster zone, with broken vases and sculptures scattered everywhere.I tiptoed around the debris and stepped forward. "I'm right here."Charles spun, his eyes locking onto mine. After a long, tense moment, he pulled me into a tight embrace."Where have you been, honey? I've been looking everywhere for you. I was so worried you might've left me. It scared the heck out of me."After being chilled to the bone all day, the instant I sank into Charles's wide, toasty embrace, I almost did not want to let go.However, I snapped out of it fast. This was just another one of his Oscar-worthy performances.I gave Charles a light pat on the back. "I just went for a little walk. My phone died, so I missed your calls."He let out a huge sigh of relief. "Sienna, you know I'd rather lose everything than lose you. Promise me you'll never leave, okay?"Oh, the sweet talk.It used to make my heart flutter.Not anymore.I managed a half-hearted smile. "Sure."'As if I'd

"Nothing tops the Lawrence family's bloodline."A smile spread across Charles's face. "Twelve weeks already, Fiona. This is my first kid, and I'm going to make sure he's the best successor there ever was."Twelve weeks... I did the math. That was right when Charles said he was jetting off abroad to seal some company deal.Charles took Fiona by the hand, and they walked away. I quickly ducked into a nearby store to stay out of sight.Then, my phone buzzed with another anonymous text.The picture showed Charles, beaming with the pregnancy report in hand, and the text taunted, [Sienna, how can you even compete with me?]He had convinced me when we got married that we should just enjoy being together and hold off on kids.How could he betray me like that, letting another woman carry his child so easily?All those promises we made turned out to be nothing but empty words. I, like a fool, believed him for far too long.I did not bother replying to Fiona's gloating message.I was do

(From a third-person perspective)"Charles, what's going on?"Fiona paused her photo session to look over at Charles, who was doubled over in pain.She rushed to his side, helping him to his feet and dusting off his suit with a mix of worry and care. "You okay, Charles?"Charles squeezed his eyes shut for a moment. The car had been too far away to see the driver's face clearly, but those eyes... They were hauntingly familiar. Perhaps it was just someone who looked like her?Sienna was not exactly an early riser. She treasured her sleep, which was why he and Fiona were having their early morning wedding.With that thought, Charles steadied himself, smoothing his expression into one of calm."Just tripped, that's all."I need to make a call."He gently pushed Fiona's hand aside and dialed the villa. "Is Mrs. Lawrence in?"The butler paused, "Yes, Mrs. Lawrence returned last night and hasn't left since."To be certain, the butler sent a maid to check Sienna's room. The bed was

Under the weight of Charles's urgency, the shattered phone was pieced back together by nightfall.Charles's eyes narrowed as he read the three messages from an unknown number.[He said I'll be the real Mrs. Lawrence soon.][Sienna, how can you even compete with me?] [You, who can't have kids–just disappear and die! And if you don't, once I've completely replaced you, you won't get off easy!]It had been Fiona all along, sowing discord. Despite his countless warnings, she dared to continue her schemes!Sienna had only responded to that first message, revealing that she had been planning to leave for some time.Rage surged through Charles, and he nearly crushed the phone in his hand, but he stopped himself just in time. After all, this was Sienna's phone, one of the last pieces of evidence of her presence.He pocketed his phone with care and made a beeline for Fiona's place.En route, his assistant handed him a file with a wary glance."Mr. Lawrence, in tracking Mrs. Lawrence'

"That's a lie!"Fiona clung to Charles's legs, refusing to let go. "Charles, he's setting me up! This doctor just tried to assault me and failed, and now he's out for revenge..."Charles could not bear to listen to Fiona. With a swift kick, he pushed her away.Fiona hit the ground with a thud, groaning in agony. The doctor, unfazed, pulled out a voice recorder and hit play.Fiona's sultry voice filled the room. "Oh, doctor, just say Charles is the father on the report, and I'll make it worth your while. I promise you nights you'll never forget..."Fiona shook her head desperately. "It's not me! Charles, it's you I love! I can't be with anyone else. It can't be me on that recording!"However, her protests were in vain. Charles had made up his mind about her fate.Charles was seething with a mix of rage, embarrassment, and utter shock.It all started with that one reckless night, a blur of drinks and an unexpected fling with Fiona. At first, it felt exciting, a wild change of pac

Chapter 8

(From the heroine's perspective)I was in my second year back at the aerospace institute, and I had managed to significantly advance the global satellite coverage project.Despite the initial awkwardness of my return, even with accolades aplenty, I remained unfazed.Relationships were straightforward there. We were all devoted to our research, which made those past two years a breeze.Tracy noticed, telling me I seemed happier, smiling more.She would tease, "Sienna, Keith from next door has been sweet on you for six months. If you're not giving him a chance, it couldn't be because you're still hung up on someone, could it?"I gazed at the woman who had more than 50 years to her name. She was my safety net when life had knocked me down, even signing off on my abortion when I needed her to.I offered a half-hearted smile. "You get me. If I hadn't moved on, I wouldn't have cut ties so completely, not even bothering to check up on him."The only updates I got about Charles were th
