To the world, he's the enigmatic Capo of the Chicago Outfit, a man of power, control, and unwavering resolve. He's sculpted his life meticulously, sticking to a code that demands order. Yet, sometimes, even the most disciplined minds can be led astray. Claire “Cindy” Parker is the life of every party, a vivacious burst of sunshine that lights up any room.

Slowly but surely, they begin to unravel each other's layers, exposing vulnerabilities they've long kept hidden.

On my birthday, one of my husband’s subordinates leaned close to him and whispered in Russian, “Sasha has a surprise prepared for you tonight.” My husband smiled at me as he finished cutting my cake. Then, in the same language, he replied, “She has quite a few tricks in bed. I’ll see her later. “Just don’t let Madam find out, or I’m afraid I’ll get thrown out.” Everyone around laughed and assured keep it quiet. None of them knew that I’d been fluent in multiple languages since I was a child. What they also didn’t know was that I’d found the hidden phone he kept in the false drawer, where all the filthy videos of him and Sasha were saved. I didn’t confront him. Instead, I contacted a few remaining connections in the Vegas and had them prepare a new identity for me. In three days, Claire Vega would no longer exist, and he would never have me again.

My husband, Harry Forger, who couldn’t have kids, got a college girl pregnant. He was thrilled and planned to keep it a secret until the baby was born, but I caught him red-handed at the hospital. I completely lost it and demanded to know how he could betray me after all I had done to land 10-billion-dollar deals for him. He just handed me divorce papers and said coldly, “You can’t give me a child, but Claire is already pregnant and needs someone to take care of her. I’m going to marry her and give her a real family. “Sign the papers. If we end things peacefully, you can still have a spot in the company.” I refused, and that’s when his revenge started. He had me thrown in prison and froze all my assets. In the end, he even tied my parents, who both had heart problems, to a drop tower ride. “Sign the divorce papers, and I’ll let them go. If you don’t sign, then watch them die up there.”

In the silence of the night, I stumbled upon a secret that changed everything in my marriage. My mafia husband was going to set me up in another man's bed on the night of our 5th anniversary, so that he could be with his old lover. CHAPTER 1# "Five years together, and it still feels like a dream," Daniel whispered, his breath tickling my ear as we danced in the middle of the crowd. I smiled, feeling like the luckiest woman alive. “I know exactly what you mean”. I replied, my voice barely above a whisper. “Happy anniversary emily” I turned around and saw my sister in law Claire holding a glass of wine and standing in front of me with her eyes filled with malice. I stared at the drink for a while, filled with shock and fear. If I hadn't checked my beloved husband's phone last, would I ever have imagined that he planned on drugging me and getting my nude video leaked online just so he could run back to his old lover.

I'm bound to a rebound system by nature. Everyone who has come up with rumors about me will receive backlash in return. When I was in high school, a male classmate had spread rumors about me being a prostitute who had intimate relations with a few old men. That very same day, he was taken away by a dozen or so old men and was modified into a gigolo himself. When I was in college, my boyfriend's childhood friend spread rumors about me being the female lead in porno videos. That night, all of the available porno videos on the Internet featured her as the female lead. Since then, no one dares to gossip about me. That is, until I'm reunited with the wealthy Hartley family, which happens to be my biological family. The fake heiress, Claire Hartley, takes my hand while adopting a friendly expression. "Hey Amanda, I heard that you got pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to a murderer's child. Now that you're back, why didn't you bring the baby home with you? "We're a family, after all. We won't look down on you."

Le jour où Jeanne Vidal et Clément Weyland ont fêté leurs cinq ans de mariage, Claire Lefèvre, la femme que Clément n'avait jamais vraiment oubliée, est rentrée de l'étranger. Le soir même, Jeanne a trouvé Clément enfermé dans la salle de bain, en train de se caresser en chuchotant le prénom de Claire. Là, elle a compris pourquoi, en cinq ans, il ne l'avait jamais touchée. « Jeanne, Clio est revenue seule. Elle traverse une période difficile. Je fais juste ce qu'un ami ferait. » Elle : « D'accord. » « Jeanne, j'ai promis à Claire de l'accompagner sur une île pour son anniversaire. Je respecte juste ce que j'ai dit à l'époque. » Elle : « Très bien. » « Jeanne, pour ce gala, j'ai besoin de quelqu'un qui tienne vraiment la route. Et Clio correspond mieux à ce rôle que toi. » Elle : « Vas-y. » Quand Jeanne n'a plus crié, n'a plus pleuré, n'a plus fait le moindre reproche, c'est là que Clément a commencé à s'inquiéter. « Jeanne, pourquoi tu ne te mets plus en colère ? » Pourquoi ? Parce qu'elle allait partir. Fatiguée d'un mariage qui ne menait plus à rien, Jeanne a appris l'anglais en secret, a passé l'IELTS en cachette et a envoyé ses dossiers de candidature pour partir étudier à l'étranger. Le jour où son visa a été validé, elle a posé un dossier de divorce sur la table. « Ne plaisante pas, Jeanne. Sans moi, tu comptes survivre comment ? » Elle n'a rien répondu. Elle a pris son billet d'avion dans la foulée et a disparu de la vie de Clément. La seule nouvelle qu'il a eue d'elle, c'était une vidéo qui faisait le buzz sur les réseaux : Jeanne, en rouge vif, dansant sous le ciel d'un autre pays. Il a serré les dents. « Jeanne, même au bout du monde, je viendrai te récupérer. »
