She was happily married… to him, but he died? That’s what everyone told her. Everyone insisted it, made her believe it, left her to grieve alone. But she never stopped hoping. Even if he had truly died… could a love like theirs ever really vanish? Could he still be out there somewhere, thinking of her, waiting for her?
Until one day… she saw him again. Alive. Breathing. Standing in front of her. But he was no longer the man she had married. He had changed. Hardened. Colder. And worst of all… he was someone else’s fiancé. Her chest ached, her world crumbled, and the life she had been clinging to evaporated in a single heartbeat.
What is she supposed to do now? How could everyone lie to her like this? Who decided that her grief, her life, her love, didn’t matter? Why is he with another woman, someone else taking the place she thought was hers forever? How could he move on when she had been left in shadows, clinging to hope that maybe… maybe he was still hers?
And the people she trusted most… her friends, her family, the ones who promised to protect her, who said they had her back… were they all part of this lie? Did they all betray her? How could she have been so blind? How could those she loved and relied on turn against her so completely?
What now? How does she survive the shock, the heartbreak, the betrayal? And when the truth finally comes out… what will she do? Will she forgive? Will she fight? Or will the world she thought she knew crumble forever, leaving only pain, anger, and the memory of the love she once held so tightly… now taken from her by lies and secrets too dark to ignore?
