You were nothing but a placeholder until the real heiress returned." Those were the last words Vivian heard from her fiancé before he humiliated her on their wedding day. She thought losing her groom was the worst thing that could happen. She was wrong. To cover his massive gambling debts, her ex-fiancé did the unthinkable.
