Torn Apart Dorothy Roberts

Di tahun kelima pernikahanku dengan Anto, gadis yang ia simpan di hotel akhirnya terungkap ke publik, menjadi perbincangan semua orang. Untuk menghindari tuduhan sebagai "pelakor", Anto datang kepadaku dengan membawa surat cerai dan berkata, “Profesor Jihan dulu pernah membantuku. Sebelum beliau meninggal, dia memintaku untuk menjaga Vior. Sekarang kejadian seperti ini terungkap, aku tak bisa tinggal diam.” Selama bertahun-tahun, Vior selalu menjadi pilihan pertama Anto. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, saat mendengar kata-kata itu, aku hancur dan marah besar, bersikeras menolak bercerai. Hingga akhirnya aku menderita depresi berat, tetapi Anto, hanya karena Vior berkata, “Kakak nggak terlihat seperti orang sakit,” langsung menyimpulkan bahwa aku berpura-pura sakit, menganggap aku sengaja bermain drama. Dia pun merancang jebakan untuk menuduhku selingkuh, lalu langsung menggugat cerai. Saat itulah aku baru sadar bahwa aku selamanya tak akan bisa menandingi rasa terima kasihnya atas budi yang diterimanya. Dalam keputusasaan, aku memilih bunuh diri. Namun ketika aku membuka mata lagi, tanpa ragu, aku langsung menandatangani surat cerai itu. Tanpa ragu, aku menandatangani surat perjanjian cerai itu.

Sa mismong araw ng kanyang divorce, nagsuot si Dorothy Navarro ng pulang bestida—hindi para mang-akit, hindi para magpakitang okay siya, kundi para alalahanin ang minsang pagmamahalan na ngayo'y ganap nang nawala. Pagkatapos niyang talikuran ang isang sirang kasal ng walang halong drama, ang huli niyang inaasahan ay ang mapansin ng pinakanakamisteryosong CEO sa bansa—si Theodore Velasco. Tahimik. Mapanuri. Mapanganib sa mga taong humaharang sa daan niya. At tila may alam ito tungkol sa matagal nang tinataguang katotohanan: ang pagkamatay ng tiyahin ni Dorothy—isang kasong tinapos ng mundo bilang "suicide." Ngunit isang tawag lang, isang paper bag ng kape, at nahulog si Dorothy sa isang masalimuot na mundo ng lihim, kapangyarihan, at paghilom ng lumang sugat. Upang mabuhay sa bagong laban, kailangang mamili ni Dorothy: pagkatiwalaan ang lalaking walang emosyon ngunit may hawak ng katotohanan—o layuan ang tanging taong handang bigyan siya ng proteksyon, kalayaan, at isang bagong apelyido—Mrs. Velasco. Ngunit ang kasunduang kasal na ginawa para sa paghihiganti… ay baka mauwi sa totoong pagmamahal. Magtatagumpay ba si Dorothy bilang maging tagapagmanang pinagkait sa kanya noon? O ang pangalawang pagkakataon niya sa pag-ibig ang tuluyang magpapabagsak sa kanya?
