She looked at her with contempt, her red heels clicking on the ground. A sinister smile is plastered on her face full of malice. "Whatever you do, he's mine. Even if you go back in time, he's always be mine." Then the man beside the woman with red heels, snaked his hands on her waist. "You'll never be my partner. You're a trash!"

"How dare you step into this house with that child?" he said, his eyes cold. "You've disgraced me." ‎She gave him four years. ‎Four years of loyalty. Four years believing a marriage built on paper could turn into love. She trusted him with everything... her heart, her future, her reputation. She believed in him when no one else did. ‎ ‎He repaid her with lies, one accusation, one carefully orchestrated betrayal, and just like that, she was erased, branded a traitor and left with nothing. ‎They thought she'd disappear quietly, they were wrong. ‎ ‎She's not broken, she's awakened, and when she comes back, it won't be with tears or pleas for forgiveness. ‎It will be to reclaim every single thing they tried to bury her with. ‎He wanted her gone. ‎Now he's going to wish he'd never let her go. ‎

“You’ve been married for two years, and I’ve slept with you 666 times. Keith, do you think Kelly knows?” After Kelly Shaw regained her hearing, the first thing she heard was the woman her husband called 'sister' saying that to him. Her husband had been cheating on her. Kelly didn’t waste time on tears or drama, and she wasn’t about to fight for him. She just pulled out the prenup. It stated clearly: if either party cheated, they walked away with nothing. … Keith Parsons had always been waiting for Kelly to turn back. He watched her rise to become the lead designer of a major national event, the first woman to win the GlobalBest grand championship, and a figure admired by industry elites. Keith panicked. He dropped to his knees before her, his fingers trembling as they clutched the hem of her dress. “You gave me everything once… Are you really going to throw me away just like that? Kelly, can you love me again?” Kelly didn’t even spare him a glance. He could only watch as she ran, bright with joy, into the arms of another man—one even more powerful and untouchable. The man held her like she was the most precious thing in the world. … On Valentine’s Day, Sebastian Carter frowned at the bouquet delivered to the house. “Throw it out. It’s an eyesore. Not everyone gets to send things here.” Kelly deliberately teased him. “It’s actually pretty nice.” That night, Kelly rubbed her aching waist and couldn’t help but complain. For someone who’d been retired from the service for years, Sebastian’s stamina was downright ridiculous.
