Chapter 1

The soft sound of a woman’s laughter echoed through the bedroom door before the sun had fully risen.Elena slowly opened her eyes.She had only slept for a few hours after waiting late into the night for Aaron to return home. She rubbed her tired eyes and listened carefully.“Aaron, you’re impossible,” the woman laughed into the phone speaker.Aaron chuckled. “I know you like it when I tease you.”Elena’s heart tightened.One thing was that Aaron did not know that Elena was awake and was listening to what he was saying. Even though he knew, he did not look like he was going to be bothered, and, listening carefully to the voice, Elena did not even need anyone to tell her who the person was. Tiffani.She stayed still on the bed, staring at the ceiling as the conversation continued. Aaron’s voice sounded warm and relaxed, a voice he had not used with her in a very long time.“I’ll see you at the office,” he said. “I’ll save the first coffee of the day for you.”Now, everything was begin

Chapter 2

Two days already and it was still the same attitude. Elena stood quietly in the kitchen before leaving for work.She had already finished making breakfast, washed the dishes, and cleaned every corner of the house. The Calvalli mansion looked perfect, but none of it mattered.Aaron did not even look at her.The worst part of it all was that there were maids assigned to do everything in the house, but then Elena always got questioned if she didn’t do anything. Aaron was busy checking his phone while drinking his coffee.Tiffani’s name flashed across the screen, and a small smile appeared on his face.Elena lowered her eyes.That smile was one she had not seen directed at her in a very long time. Aaron doesn’t even fake it to her.As Aaron stood to leave, he stopped beside her.“I’ll be in meetings today,” he said coldly. “Don’t come looking for me.”Elena nodded without speaking.He stared at her for another moment. “And remember what I told you.”She already knew what was coming.“If a

It had been a difficult time since she had almost argued with Aaron at the company that morning. Nobody believed that she actually prepared those projects all by herself.Even though some believed what you were saying, it was very difficult to go against Tiffani. At some point, nobody wants to listen to what she was saying anymore because it was not making sense and the most important thing was that, the investors had already accepted the proposalNobody actually cared about where it was coming from anymore. Elena could have actually just walked away and decided not to participate in anything that’s happening in the company anymore. But then, it was her husband’s family company and she didn’t just want to give up like that. She wanted to give everything she could give and make sure they get bigger every single day.The office clock finally struck six, signaling the end of another exhausting workday. Elena quickly shut down her computer and packed her bag. Her shoulders ached from h

Chapter 4

Elena waited until the house became quiet. Dinner was over. The dishes had been washed. The dining room was spotless again. Aaron had gone into the living room to answer a few work emails while his parents relaxed nearby, talking about how wonderful Tiffani had been during dinner.Elena stood outside the room for several minutes.Her hands would not stop shaking. One of her problems was that she did not know how she was going to tackle the problem, but she just had a feeling that she had to say something.She had repeated the same words inside her head over and over again. She did not want to argue. She did not want to complain.She only wanted her husband to understand how she felt. She just has to remind him that he is married and shouldn’t be bringing someone else to their house, especially in moments when they’re supposed to celebrate together.Taking a deep breath, she slowly walked into the living room.Aaron was sitting on the sofa with his laptop open. The light from the scree

Chapter 5

Elena did not really stand back to listen to what Tiffani had to say the previous night. She just walked away from them.The following morning, Elena arrived at the office earlier than most employees, as she always did.She greeted the security guards with a small smile before making her way to her desk. The building was still quiet. The only sounds came from the cleaners finishing their work and the hum of the air conditioners.She was supposed to come with Aaron with that money, but they did not wake up on the good side and that was how they did everything separately.She sighed and quickly placed her bag down and immediately started organizing the day’s files.Some contracts needed reviewing, client emails were waiting for replies, and Aaron needed several reports before noon.So many things to do and then she doesn’t even get acknowledgement for all the good things that she does for the company. Everything to see is the bad side about her and it wasn’t like she was really that b

Chapter 6

Elena pulled the blanket away from her body at exactly 4 a.m. It has been a normal routine for her because she has to prepare early and leave for work.Elena opened her eyes slowly. Her body ached from the previous day, but she forced herself out of bed. She could not remember the last time she had woken up feeling rested.She quietly washed her face and tied her hair into a neat ponytail. There was no time to think about her own comfort.Even though Aaron's parents did not really like her, and he had also been distant from her recently, she was not giving up on him. The kitchen was already waiting for her. But there was no need to panic because she was going to get everything done with the blink of an eye even before Aaron got up from bed.She prepared breakfast for the entire Calvalli family. Fresh bread, eggs, fruit, coffee, and tea filled the dining table. While the food cooked, she packed Aaron’s lunch, cleaned the kitchen counters, and started the washing machine.When breakfast

No matter how much she tried to complain, it was never going to changeElena sat alone at the long table with two plates ready. The food was still warm because she had reheated it twice already. She looked at the clock on the wall.10:15 p.m.Aaron had promised he would try to come home early. This was after she told him that she was going to stop working for him if he didn’t adjust.She smiled sadly. It was obvious that he was just trying to play around with her, and he didn’t mean anything that came out of his mouth.“I shouldn’t have believed that,” she whispered to herself.Still, she refused to eat without him.The house was quiet. Aaron’s parents had already gone upstairs after dinner. The servants had finished cleaning the kitchen and gone to their rooms.Only Elena remained.She rested her chin on her hand and stared at the front door, hoping it would open.Every few minutes, she checked her phone.There was no message that was coming from him, and there were no calls either. S

Chapter 8

Inside a magnificent ballroom, glasses clicked and voices chatted slowly. Elena was standing at the edge of the crowd like a hawk. She watched her husband accept congratulations from admirers. He looked so handsome in his tailored suit, so confident. Pride swelled in her chest despite the ache she was feeling.She approached him, keeping her voice soft. "Congratulations, honey. I'm so proud of everything you've accomplished."Aaron's smile vanished. He grabbed her elbow and pulled her aside, his fingers digging in hard enough to bruise."Don't call me that," he hissed, his eyes darting around nervously. "Don't call me honey in public. Someone might hear you and know that we are married."The words were knives cutting her heart."But I am your wife""Not here you're not." His tone was final and cold. "Do you understand? No one can know."Elena nodded, blinking back tears. She understood perfectly. She was his hidden wife that no one was supposed to know about. But that broke Elena.

Chapter 9

She kept walking without knowing where she was going.After several minutes, she noticed a small café sitting on the corner of the street. Warm yellow lights glowed through the windows.She hesitated before pushing the door open.The waitress smiled politely. “Welcome.”Elena forced herself to smile. “May I use your restroom, please?”“Of course.”She thanked the woman and hurried inside. Standing before the mirror, Elena finally saw herself clearly.She totally forgot about the red wine that had stained her shirts, and it was all because of overthinking. She also felt embarrassed because she had been carrying it along all the streets. Her makeup had ruined from crying. She looked exhausted.She turned on the tap and soaked a clean towel with cold water.Very carefully, she began rubbing the wine stain. “It won’t come off…” She sighed.She splashed cold water onto her face and wiped away the smudged makeup. “Pull yourself together, Elena,” she whispered.“You’ve survived worse.” But

Chapter 10

The eldest brother could not take his eyes off Elena. There were a lot of things going on in his mind at that moment.His hand trembled slightly as he stared at the small birthmark near the side of her neck. Then his gaze moved to the silver pendant resting against her collarbone.His face lost all color. “This… this can’t be true!” he shouted.His loud voice echoed through the quiet café.The other three brothers immediately rushed toward him. “What happened?” the second brother asked.The eldest pointed at Elena with shaking fingers. “Look.”Elena on the other end was confused and she didn’t even understand what was happening. To some extent, she wanted to run away.But she was just curious to understand what was going on and that was why she was still standingThe brothers looked at her neck. Then they looked at the pendant.The youngest brother’s eyes widened. “It can’t be…”The third brother stepped closer. “That birthmark…”“And the pendant…” the second brother whispered.The el
