The door to the exam room opened, and Selena Collins, the attending physician, called my name. "How did this happen?" she asked, pulling on a pair of gloves and gently examining my finger with a pair of tweezers.When she realized how serious the wound was, she immediately frowned. "That's a deep cut. You've injured the tendon, too. You'll need stitches."I pressed my lips together and said nothing. As she prepared the anesthetic, she reminisced. "I remember you. You came in before with a cut."The woman who brought you in last time seemed pretty cold, but she was so worried about you. She practically carried you into the hospital and cried so much she ruined her makeup. Why isn't she here this time?"Her words sent me drifting back to that memory. We'd only been living together for a short time then. I'd broken a teacup in the kitchen and stepped on a shard of glass while cleaning it up. It was barely more than a scratch.Feeling playful, I deliberately limped over to Willo

Willow softened her voice, speaking to Jayden as gently as she would to a frightened child. "Okay. Just wait for me. I'll be there soon."Seeing how much patience she had for Jayden, I suddenly found it almost ridiculous. She could be endlessly patient with him, but when it came to me, I was always an afterthought—left with the cold silence and whatever little attention remained. I wiped the water from my face, my teeth chattering as I glared at her. "He invites a married woman out for drinks in the middle of the night? Alone?" I let out a bitter laugh. "Tell me, does Jayden really just want a drink—or does he have something else in mind?"Jayden had clearly heard me. "Willow, don't come. Caius seems to have misunderstood our relationship. Forget it. I'll just take a few sleeping pills and try to get through the night. Maybe if I fall asleep, I won't feel so bad…""Don't be ridiculous!" Willow snapped. "Don't take anything. It's bad for you. I'll be there in five minutes."

My heart lurched at the bride's question. A brief silence followed before Willow finally spoke. "No, he doesn't know, and he never will." "Why are you doing this to yourself?" another classmate asked with a sigh. "Jayden has stayed single all these years because of you. He loves you, and he feels guilty about what happened with Caius. I even heard he can't sleep without taking sleeping pills anymore.""I know." Willow's voice was cold and steady. "I was drunk that night. I thought he was Caius... and he took advantage of me.""Then are you planning to keep this from Caius forever?" someone asked."What choice do I have?" Willow snapped. "What am I supposed to tell him? That I slept with his best friend the night before our wedding? What good would that do besides destroy him?"She fell silent for a moment before continuing, her voice quieter. "I've only ever loved Caius. But Jayden was my first, and that means something too. I'm not going to divorce Caius. All I can do now i

Willow's phone slipped from her hand and hit the floor with a dull thud. She sat alone in the empty living room, stunned. It felt as though a thunderclap had gone off right beside her ear, leaving her mind ringing. Northpass? An overseas assignment? When had I applied for it? And why hadn't I told her?Shock quickly gave way to anger, followed by the sting of realizing that I'd deliberately kept it from her. Willow bent down, snatched up her phone, and practically shouted at Linda on the other end. "Say that again! Where did he go? Give me the address!""Ms. Simpson," Linda said hesitantly, clearly startled by Willow's reaction. "That's private employee information. I'll need to check with Caius before I can give you any details." "I'm his wife!" Willow gripped the phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Panic edged into her voice, though she barely seemed to notice it herself."We just argued. He's acting out. I have a right to know if his work assignment has cha

After saying that, Willow turned away without hesitation, opened the car door, and got inside. Jayden stood frozen on the side of the road, watching the black sedan disappear into the distance. Only when it was completely out of sight did he finally break down. He sank to the ground, buried his face in his knees, and sobbed. He couldn't understand. How could that be possible? Willow had always been obsessive about hygiene. Yet that day at her house, when Jayden handed her a half-eaten strawberry, she'd eaten it despite her obvious hesitation. Afterward, she'd coldly warned him never to do it again. But she ate it nonetheless.She hated wasting time. She always said movies were pointless entertainment and that she'd rather work late than waste an evening at a theater with me.Yet last month, when he had mentioned wanting to see a terrible movie, she'd actually made time to go with him. In the darkness of the theater, he'd deliberately brushed his fingers against the back
