The Love I Couldn't See - Romance novels & stories
Shude
Her silky hair was a mess. Her makeup, ruined. Her dress wrinkled like she slept on it. She was there, but her mind, elsewhere. Her eyes went to me. Her lips curled into a lazy smile. In every step she gave, my heart sank thinking she would fall. “What happened to you? Are you okay?” I rushed towards her. Her face twisted with disgust. “Oh, perfect Bella. The golden girl. Always correct. Always the best.” “What…” “Perfect Bella. Has the best grades. She doesn't have to fight to get into college, colleges fight over her.” “Emma, you are drunk.” “Perfect Bella doesn't drink. She is as pure as water. Saint Bella.” Her eyes glinted. “Perfect Bella doesn't sleep with her best friend's husband.” My body froze as a wave of chill ran through my spine. “What… what are you talking about?” She leaned in, her breath thick with alcohol, “Where do you think Marcus is? Why do you think I can barely walk straight? Is it hard to believe he took me and not you to that bad that was supposed to be yours?” My heart clenched. Tears started forming in my eyes. It didn't take long till they gave up to gravity. He… he didn't. We'd promised this morning. He couldn't. “He wouldn't.” ***** It's been a year, but the scars are still there. My past echoing in my head reminding me of everything that happened since that day. Every time I open my eyes in the morning to see... nothing. “You only get hurt by the ones you love the most.” “You only get betrayed by the ones you trust the most.” What happens when these two misbeliefs collide? ***** I hope I wrote this book good enough to make you feel it. Obrigada.☺️

SYNOPSIS After her mother’s passing, Clara found a simple happiness in her marriage to Julian, a brilliant CEO. She was the perfect, quiet wife in the shadows—managing his home and supporting his career, entirely unaware that her husband saw their union merely as a secret convenience. When her father fell critically ill and needed an urgent, costly surgery, Clara turned to Julian for help. He coldly refused, claiming the company desperately needed its capital for a massive expansion. Disappointed but understanding of his business pressures, Clara chose to sell a piece of her secret passion: a masterpiece she had painted in complete anonymity. To her relief, a wealthy buyer purchased the painting for a staggering price. She used the funds to save her father, finding comfort in the belief that her art had finally been cherished by someone who valued it. Everything shattered when Julian’s first love returned to town. The same man who claimed to have no money suddenly spent a fortune on a lavish fireworks display to celebrate her homecoming. But the ultimate betrayal came when Clara discovered her own hard-won masterpiece now bore the name of Julian's first love. The anonymous buyer had been her husband all along—not out of any genuine appreciation for her art, but simply to use it as a shallow prop to boost his ex-lover’s reputation. Heartbroken and disillusioned, Clara handed Julian divorce papers. He dismissed her actions as a pathetic tantrum, completely oblivious to the fact that the "useless" housewife he had taken for granted was, in reality, a master of her craft. He failed to realize the true value of what he had lost until she was already gone—having found a new life, and a fierce new love, alongside his greatest business rival.
