Chapter 1

"Minnie, are you all right? Why are you so pale?"The woman beside me nudged my arm, and only then did I surface from the ringing in my ears. The noise of the reunion sounded as though it were coming through a thick pane of glass.My sister, Winona Sherwood, had already slipped away to the restroom.The wives who had pushed hardest for the challenge earlier had the good sense to change the subject.I forced a stiff smile. "I'm fine. Maybe my blood sugar's just a little low.""Then you should head home. Look how much your husband dotes on you. He's probably got something good waiting for you."I said nothing more. I grabbed my bag and all but fled.On the drive home, my fingertips turned ice-cold. I gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles went white.In my head, the two voices played over and over.One had said, "Buy it, baby," in a warm, smiling tone. The other had said, "Baby," with a note of surprise.The timbre and cadence matched exactly. So did the faint, barely per

At that moment, I finally understood. He had bought the bracelets as a pair. One was for me, and the other was for his "brother's girlfriend."I stared at the photo for a long time, until the screen dimmed on its own.Beside me, Matthew's breathing was steady, as if he had already fallen into a deep sleep. He was always quiet when he slept, his features relaxed.But now I knew it was all a lie.I pulled open the desk drawer. My fingertips brushed against the invitation to an elite pastry course in Lutetia, the one Matthew had talked me out of attending. He had told me I could always go next year.…The next day was the weekend.I woke early, while Matthew was still asleep. I walked into his study. Sunlight filtered through the blinds and cast mottled patches of light across the floor."Hubby, let me tidy up your study. You've been so busy lately that it's gathering dust," I called toward the bedroom.His voice came back quickly, thick with sleep. "Sure. Just be careful. Don't

The person who had secretly filmed that video was my mother.I remembered it clearly. That year, she had rented a room across from the school so she could look after my sister and me while we studied for our exams.The camera angle matched the view from her window exactly.I clutched the cold phone in my hand, walked out of the study, and called my mother.The phone rang for a long time before she picked up. In the background, I could hear the clatter of cards being shuffled."Hello, Minnie. Why are you calling at this hour? Mom's busy right now.""Mom, I need to ask you something." I kept my voice calm. "Senior year, when Winona knocked over my paint palette, did you film it from across the street?"The sound of shuffling cards stopped.A few seconds passed before my mother's self-righteous and utterly unbothered voice came through. "Yeah, I filmed it. So what? It's been years. You're still holding on to that?""Why did you film it? Who did you show it to?" I demanded.My mo

When Matthew rushed home, he looked travel-worn, with a thin sheen of sweat still on his forehead.The moment he walked in, he saw Winona sitting on the sofa with red-rimmed eyes while I set a plate of cut fruit in front of her, every inch the "thoughtful" sister."Eat some fruit. You'll feel better," I said gently.At the sight of us, the fury in Matthew's eyes immediately gave way to tenderness and self-reproach.He strode over, pulled me behind him in one swift motion, and fixed Winona with an ice-cold stare. "What are you doing here?"Winona flinched at the force of his words, and fresh tears spilled down her face."I... I came to see Minnie... I just wanted you, Matty... to talk to your brother—""My business is none of yours." Matthew cut her off without a trace of warmth in his voice. "Leave. Now."He pulled me into the study and shut the door, cutting off the sound of Winona's crying.He held me tightly, rested his chin on top of my head, and spoke in a hoarse voice. "

A week later, at Lutetia…The apartment I had rented was in Saint Germano, on a quiet street lined with plane trees just outside my window.My career as a food vlogger entered a new chapter here.I began visiting Lutetia's century-old shops and hunting for the freshest ingredients at the markets along the Sevan River.Little by little, I wove Lutetian elegance and ease into my videos.I had already handed my domestic account over to a trusted friend to manage. My new talent agency was professional, and my views continued to climb, drawing a wave of new followers from overseas.I stayed busy every day. I had classes to attend, videos to film and edit, and an entirely new world to explore.I was too busy to think about Matthew.Meanwhile, Matthew was likely enduring the most blindsiding week of his life. He had sent Winona away with enough money to travel the world and told her to stop coming back to bother us.-(3rd POV)Matthew returned to their empty house with a carefully

Matthew had barely boarded his flight to Lutetia when Winona, who was supposed to be "healing" abroad, flew straight back into the country.She had taken the enormous sum of money Matthew had given her and immediately went on a frenzied shopping spree through the luxury boutiques.Once she had thoroughly indulged herself, she headed back to the home I had shared with Matthew, ready to enjoy a life of luxury all to herself while Maxwell was away.But she rang the doorbell for a long time, and no one answered.She called Maxwell. His phone was off.She called Matthew. His was off too.Then she called Minnie. Hers was off as well.A sense of foreboding settled over her. She called a locksmith and had the door forced open.The apartment was empty. Everything that belonged to Minnie was gone. Her clothes, bags, and shoes had all vanished from the closet without a trace. Her skincare products and jewelry were gone from the vanity too.Not a single trace of Minnie remained in that ho

Chapter 7

Matthew spent three full days searching for Minnie in Lutetia. He carried her photo everywhere and asked around at every place he could think of, anywhere she might have gone.He tried galleries, museums, and even trendy restaurants. In the end, he tracked down an open-air market she frequented after recognizing a background detail that had briefly appeared in one of her social media posts.-(1st POV)It was Sunday afternoon, and the sunlight was just right.I stood at a flower stall, discussing the topic of my next video with my new collaborator, a handsome Lutetian man.His name was Antoine Dubois, the photographer and planner the agency had assigned to work with me. We got along well.Antoine told a joke that made me laugh out loud. That was when a figure practically radiating hostility came storming toward us.Matthew grabbed my wrist and squeezed hard enough to nearly crush the bone. His eyes were bloodshot, and stubble shadowed his jaw. His once-immaculate shirt was hopel

Matthew did not go home. He stayed in Lutetia, lingering at the edge of my life but never quite part of it.He stopped chasing me down on impulse. Instead, he showed up every day on the corner beneath my apartment building.When I left for class in the morning, he stood beneath the plane trees. When I came home at night after meetings with my team, he was still there.Autumn in Lutetia brought endless rain, and he often stood outside without an umbrella. The cold rain soaked his hair and coat until he looked like an abandoned statue.He lost weight quickly. His eyes sank deep into his face. He no longer resembled the golden boy who had once brimmed with confidence and looked down on the world from above.I looked straight through him.His devotion and regret meant nothing to me. It all played out like a silent film that had nothing to do with my life.My heart had already died the moment I signed the divorce agreement.-Eventually, news of the mess back home reached Matthew t

Getting the money and successfully throwing the Whitebrook family into chaos was not enough to make Winona stop.She hated me. In her mind, if it weren't for me, Matthew would never have invented the identity of Maxwell to deceive her.If it weren't for my "heartless" decision to leave, Matthew would have remained her walking ATM of a boyfriend forever.I was the one who had stolen everything she believed should have been hers.Thus, she turned all her resentment on me.With the money the Whitebrook family had given her, she hired a small army of paid trolls and launched a sweeping smear campaign against me across every major platform back home.Overnight, I went from an inspiring, elegant food vlogger to a calculating, gold-digging schemer who had abandoned her husband and family for fame.[Heard for a while now that this Minnie girl was no good. Went after her own sister's boyfriend just to marry into money.][Her sister's pregnant, and she's still out there running off overs

Chapter 10

Matthew's legal team back home swiftly called an online press conference.On camera, Matthew sat alone in an empty conference room with a plain white backdrop behind him. He looked even thinner than he had in Lutetia. Dressed in a black suit, he appeared unusually solemn.He faced a wall of flashing cameras and thousands of viewers online and spoke without notes, his voice calm and clear. "Hello, everyone. I am Matthew Whitebrook."Regarding the rumors that have recently circulated online about me, Miss Minnie Sherwood, and Miss Winona Sherwood, I am here today to give the one and only complete account."He paused and fixed his eyes on the camera as if he were looking at one particular person."First, I need to clarify something. I do not have a twin brother named Maxwell Whitebrook. From beginning to end, Maxwell's identity was a deception that I planned and carried out myself."The moment he finished speaking, the room erupted into an uproar.He ignored the commotion and conti
