Setelah putri kaya palsu itu kembali mengancam bunuh diri, Nikos diam-diam menjalin hubungan dengannya di belakangku. Namun dengan satu syarat: hubungan ini tidak boleh sampai ke telingaku. "Aku bisa bersamamu, tapi Aurora adalah hidupku. Apa pun yang terjadi antara aku dan kamu, sama sekali nggak boleh dia ketahui." Putri kaya palsu itu berpura-pura menyetujui, lalu mengirimkan kepadaku sebuah video yang memperlihatkan Nikos membawa anak kami dan tinggal serumah dengannya. "Bagaimanapun juga, Kak Nikos nggak akan meninggalkanku. Jangan pernah berangan-angan bisa bersaing denganku." Yang tidak diketahuinya adalah: aku tidak pernah berniat bersaing dengannya.

Aku menunggu donor jantung selama dua tahun, tetapi jantung itu malah ditransplantasikan oleh suamiku kepada putri palsu keluarga kaya, Inara. Dokter mengatakan aku hanya memiliki sisa waktu hidup satu minggu. Karena itu, aku memutuskan untuk membekukan jenazahku. Aku menyumbangkan jasadku sendiri kepada studio milik Inara. Pada hari aku menandatangani surat donasi, anakku berlari memelukku dan berkata bahwa akhirnya Mama dan Bibi sudah berdamai kembali. Orang tuaku memujiku karena akhirnya aku mengerti arti kasih sayang antarsaudari dan mau saling membantu. Suamiku pun merasa lega, mengatakan bahwa aku akhirnya melepaskan ganjalan di hati dan menjadi lebih pengertian. Aku tersenyum tipis. Ya, kali ini aku benar-benar sudah belajar untuk patuh. Aku akan mengembalikan identitas putri Keluarga Mahardian kepada Inara dan mengabulkan keinginan kalian semua.

Semua bermula ketika aku dibawa kembali ke Keluarga Andaru. Di saat yang sama, putri palsu di keluarga itu memilih untuk terjun ke laut dan memalsukan kematiannya. Seketika, dunia berbalik menyerangku. Semua orang menudingku sebagai penyebab kematiannya. Hanya suamiku, Arya Baskara, yang tetap berdiri kokoh di sisiku. Aku sempat terbuai, mengira dia benar-benar mencintaiku. Hingga suatu malam, aku tak sengaja mendengar percakapannya dengan temannya. "Saras akan segera kembali. Apa rencanamu terhadap istrimu di rumah?" Suara Arya terdengar begitu dingin saat menjawab, tanpa sedikit pun kehangatan. "Bagaimana mungkin aku jatuh cinta padanya? Dia sudah menyiksa Saras sampai mati. Aku mendekatinya cuma buat balas dendam dan menghancurkan hidupnya." Tak lama kemudian, aku diculik. Saat para penculik menelepon Arya untuk meminta tebusan dan mengancam akan membunuhku, dia sedang sibuk menggelar pesta penyambutan yang mewah untuk kepulangan kekasih hatinya. Dia bahkan tidak sudi membuang waktu untukku. "Kalau mau bunuh, lakukan saja sekarang! Setelah mati, buang saja mayatnya ke laut untuk jadi makanan hiu!" cetusnya ketus. Akhirnya, keinginannya terkabul. Jantungku ditikam dan tubuhku dilempar ke laut dalam untuk dimangsa ikan. Akan tetapi, rambut pria itu justru mendadak memutih dalam semalam karena penyesalan yang tak berujung.
