My husband, Caleb Price, and I, Sienna Hart, have been married for many years. Our relationship is going strong, and our son, Tobey, is thoughtful and kind. I've always believed we would spend our whole lives together. What I don't expect is that Caleb would hurt me and Tobey three times because of the same woman. The first time, we agree to celebrate Tobey's birthday, but Caleb forgets his promise because he has to pick up his first love, Lila Monroe, from the airport. When I return home from a business trip, all I find is my heartbroken son. The second time, Caleb secretly takes our son and Lila to the amusement park.

Maybe he's forgotten, but I once told him that I'd only forgive him three times. So, when he finishes apologizing and thinks life will return to the happy days it was before… It doesn't. Yes, I forgive him, but I'm also taking Tobey and leaving him—forever.

El día que mi hermana gemela, Alexia Cavanaugh, y yo cumplimos veintidós años, me desplomo y descubro que tengo cáncer en etapa avanzada. Ignorando el consejo del médico de ser ingresada, salgo del hospital. Todo lo que quiero es pasar un último cumpleaños con mi familia sin una sola preocupación. Pero cuando llego a la fiesta, un mesero me detiene en la puerta y me dice que el lugar ha sido reservado exclusivamente para Alexia. No se permite la entrada a personas ajenas. A través del cristal, observo cómo mi hermano sostiene un pastel y mi padre le coloca un gorro de cumpleaños en la cabeza a Alexia. Incluso mi novio está allí, sonriendo mientras Alexia pide un deseo. Me quedo allí durante media hora, apretando mi teléfono, hasta que mi novio finalmente responde mi llamada. —Estuve en el hospital. Yo... Él me interrumpe. —Ophelia, siempre has estado sana. Hoy es el cumpleaños de Lexi. Deberíamos hablar más tarde. ¿Acaso hoy no es también mi cumpleaños? Mi madre murió al darme a luz. El médico explicó más tarde que yo privé a Alexia de nutrientes antes de nacer, lo que la dejó frágil desde el principio. Y así, sin más, todos decidieron que yo siempre debía hacerme a un lado por mi gemela, que nació cinco minutos antes que yo. Hago una bola con el informe de mi diagnóstico de cáncer y lo arrojo a la basura. He terminado de dejar que su favoritismo me lastime. Nunca he recibido su amor de todos modos, así que elijo irme para siempre.

The Shermans are the richest family in town, and both of the Sherman daughters are about to get married on the same day. I, the older of the two sisters, am about to marry Andrew Hammond, a wealthy scion and the man I've loved for many years now. Meanwhile, my younger sister, Celine Sherman, is set to marry the heir of the Wright family. The upcoming wedding fills me with joy and anticipation, but suddenly, Andrew disappears for three whole days. When I go to confront him about it, I end up overhearing a conversation between him and his friends. "On the wedding day in three days, you guys must ensure that the wedding cars are switched, so that it's Celine's car that comes to the Sherman residence instead. "That illegitimate son of the Wright family is a cold, heartless man. I can't let Celine suffer by marrying him!" "Relax," one of his friends replies. "We've made all the arrangements with the drivers and everything. But what about Joanna?" Brimming with confidence, Andrew declares, "The Sherman family has the Wright family's business by the throat, and everyone knows that Joanna is mine. There's no way the Wright family would dare to do anything to her. "When the time comes, I'll send Celine off and bring Joanna back for the wedding ceremony. I'm sure the Wrights won't dare to say a single word." The initial shock leaves me on the verge of a breakdown, but eventually, it morphs into the stillness of despair. In the end, I decide to go along with the plan, letting Andrew and Celine get their happy ending. Thus, when Andrew proceeds with the next part of his plan and arrives to pick me up, all he's greeted with is the sight of my cold dead body.

On the way to my twin boys' parent-teacher conference, I'm informed that my sons, Ricky and Micky Stallone, have already been taken home by their parents. I'm immediately worried sick about their safety. However, when I look across the road, I suddenly catch sight of a very happy family of four—Ricky, Micky, my husband, Corbin Stallone, and his first love he could never forget, Ingrid Lacelle. Ricky and Micky both run into Ingrid's arms, cozying up to her and calling her "Mommy". Meanwhile, Corbin gently kisses Ingrid's forehead with a doting expression on his face. I join the crowd of envious onlookers, watching the beginning of the end of my marriage.

In my seventh year of dating Elliot Sheppard, he pulls every string to save the exiled daughter of his imprisoned mentor—Margot Fairgrave—and gives her a wedding that makes headlines. "Professor Fairgrave was my guiding light and a man of integrity, who'd never yield to corruption. I owe it to him to protect his daughter," he declares. The Sheppard family, with their billion-dollar empire and strict family rules, will never accept a daughter-in-law like Margot. So, to secure her place, he demands that our son call her "Mom" and tells the world that I am just the nanny. He promises. "Just wait. Once I collect enough evidence to prove that Professor Fairgrave was framed, I'll return everything to the way it was." For three years, I waited and watched their picture-perfect family of three. My son no longer knows me as his mother, yet I remain their lowly nanny. Since I can't possibly wait forever, I've decided to stop waiting.
