Ketika selingkuhan Wilson datang membuat keributan di depanku untuk yang kesembilan kalinya, aku tidak lagi merasakan apa pun. Aku menatap Wilson dengan tenang dan berujar, "Kamu sudah berkali-kali berjanji nggak akan biarkan selingkuhanmu membuat masalah di depanku."

Naomi sacrificed ten years for her love with Liam, only to be betrayed and sold to Lucius, a cold CEO who saw marriage as nothing more than a transaction. A one–year contract, no emotions, no complications. But when two different worlds collided, the boundaries were quickly erased, and an invisible forbidden feeling arose. Yet, just as she began to love someone new, the old lover returned. Liam refused to let go, and Lucius would not accept having what he owned taken from him. Not love with the old, not a possession to the new… yet impossible to refuse!

At the dinner celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary, I held the pregnancy test report in my pocket, planning to surprise my CEO husband. However, the moment the doors opened, I froze. A stunning woman stood there with her arm intimately linked through my husband's. She clung to Charles Lawrence with the ease and confidence of someone who clearly belonged at his side, carrying herself like the lady of the house. Neither Charles nor the guests found it strange. If anything, they seemed entertained. Someone even joked, "Mr. Lawrence and Ms. Cooper aren't just ideal partners at work. Their chemistry is something to admire as well. I've personally reserved the presidential suite at Jubilee City's finest resort for Mr. Lawrence tonight. You can be sure no one will disturb you." Fiona blushed and slipped shyly into Charles's arms. He lowered his head and kissed her hard. They fit together so naturally, so intimately, that the sight was unbearably glaring. My thoughts flashed back to the night before, when Charles had pressed me into the bed. In that moment, I had caught sight of a strange message sent by someone named Fiona: [Everyone in the company thinks we've slept together.] Charles had explained that Fiona was only his assistant, a forty-year-old woman, and that the message was nothing more than a punishment from a lost game, a foolish dare. That explanation had dissolved my suspicion and anger. Then, I finally saw the truth. I was the one who had lost everything. Inside my pocket, the pregnancy report was crushed into a tight ball. I forced the tears back, stepped away, and opened the invitation from the National Aerospace Research Institute on my phone. Without hesitation, I tapped Accept. Three days later, I would vanish completely from Charles's world.
