I tried to die a hundred times to make him notice me. For two years, I was Shawn Scott’s wife in name only—an unwanted bride bound by a scandal, left to live in the shadow of another woman. My parents only saw my faults. My husband only saw my mistakes. As for me? I saw no way out. Every time I tried to end it, I’d wake up again, bruised and humiliated. I was greeted not with concern, but accusations such as "Why are you so selfish, Zoe Jennings?" or "Why can’t you be more like your sister Yvonne?" It wasn’t until my hundredth suicide attempt that I finally understood: I was the only one fighting for a love that never existed. So, I stopped. I walked away. I disappeared. I gave them what they wanted—my absence. However, when I left, the man who never looked at me twice started chasing the ghost of the woman he thought he knew. By the time he realized what he truly lost, I was already learning how to live again.

After being in love with Dylan for seven years, I planned to propose to him at his birthday party. But then I overheard him speaking to his friend in Italian: "You like Lydia? I'll give her to you. I'm tired of her anyway. Sarah is better—she's a dancer, young and sexy." He thought I couldn’t understand, but he didn’t know that I had learned Italian for him. I threw away the ring I had designed for him, tore apart the wedding suit I had sewn and left. Our friends were all speculating how long it would take before I came back. Dylan sneered with disdain, "She’s just an orphan with no family. Where could she go without me? Three days at most." But to his surprise, I never returned and found a new home.

"Buy me, Mr. Gabriel Esguerra and I will do everything for you basta bayaran mo ako katumbas ng utang ng pamilya ko kay Oliver," buong tapang na sabi ni Gianna. Wala na siyang ibang choice kung 'di lunukin ang pride at kahihiyan, maisalba lamang ang kaniyang pamilya mula sa pagkakalugmok. Seryoso siyang tinitigan ni Gabriel na tila ba binabasa siya pero walang panghuhusga sa mga mata nito. "Sigurado ka ba sa sinabi mo, Gianna?" "I-I don't have a choice, Gabriel at kung may kaya akong gawin for my family, I'm willing to do it." Nangingilid na ang luha sa kaniyang mga mata dahil kahit siya'y naaawa sa sarili. "Five millions is really a huge amount of money and do you think, papayag akong ikaw lang ang kabayaran niyon?" "H-hindi pa ba ako sapat?"
