“ที่พูดนี่คิดรึยัง?!” พอพายุ Nightshade พูดมาแบบนั้น ฉันเลยพยักหน้าออกไปช้าๆ แล้วตอบกลับไปอย่างมั่นใจในคำถามนั้นเหมือนกัน “คิดแล้ว...ฉันว่าแย่กว่าการเป็นผู้หญิงของนาย คือเคยรักนายแต่จำมันไม่ได้มากกว่า”

Dalawang araw bago ang kasal, nalaman ng babae ang kanyang tunay na identity. Iniisip niya kung itutuloy pa ba ang kasal sa kabila ng kasinungalingan, o talikuran ang lahat upang protektahan ang sarili niya. Nang malaman ng lalaki ang tunay na plano ng kanyang mga magulang, tumutol siya rito. Handa siyang talikuran ang mana at labanan ang sariling pamilya para sa babaeng minahal niya. Sa gitna ng corporate rivalry, family politics, at personal betrayal, kailangang magdesisyon ang dalawa kung ang kanilang pagmamahalan ay sapat upang lampasan ang mga lihim at interes na bumabalot sa kanilang relasyon.

For six years of marriage, Cyran Valehart and I lived with measured respect, as if we were partners holding the same scale in perfect balance. For the sake of my equestrian career, I refused to have children. He shouldered the gossip, endured the judgment, and stood beside me without hesitation. But when I rode into what should have been my final international competition, he went back home with his first love—her hand resting protectively over her swollen belly. "All these years, you chose the horses over me," he spat. "That damned competition meant more to you than our family ever did." His voice shook with righteous anger, but his next words cut far deeper. "Six years ago, I abandoned Celia once. Now she carries my child. I won't betray her again." In that instant, my marriage became nothing but a title. I was reduced to a wife in name only, a figurehead in his home, a shadow he no longer cared to see. During the very competition meant to crown my life's work, Cyran laced a sharp needle beneath my saddle, each stride of my horse a fresh stab of pain meant to break us both. I lost the match. My horse collapsed with a shattered leg. And in that fall, my dream and my marriage were crushed together—ruined by the very man who once swore to protect them. Later, he paid with everything he had, desperate to make amends. But no matter what he sacrificed, Cyran Valehart was already behind me, nothing more than a ghost I would never turn to face again.

On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, all three of my fiancés showed up with the worst reports from their family-run businesses. My father had declared that I would marry the one who could bring the greatest benefit to our family. However, all three of them had already fallen for a penniless scholarship girl named Amelia Jones, and none of them wanted me. In my previous life, I kept them close, mentored them, and poured my resources into helping them rise. By the time they had each become powerful men in my family, they repaid me by framing my father, getting him arrested, and making him age more than 10 years overnight. He was dragged to prison. Me? They hired a crew of street thugs to brutalize me, leaving me to die while my private photos spread across the internet. As life slipped away, I heard their sneering voices: "Did you really think we ever liked you? Everything we did was for Amelia." "If you hadn't chained us to your side, we'd have married her long ago, we'd have a house full of kids by now!" "You and your father ruined her future. She couldn't afford college because of you. She had no choice but to jump!" Then I opened my eyes: reborn on the very day of my coming-of-age ceremony. I pulled my father aside, looked him in the eye, and said, "I'm an adult now. Throw them out. Strip them of every business and every asset we gave them." "I'm not choosing any of them. I chose Bruce Sullivan, the Don of the Sullivan family."
