"It's not," she said quickly. "I already made that decision. I just didn't want to leave without telling you."
She saw it then-the way his eyes dimmed, the way his jaw tightened as if holding himself together took all his strength. The sight hurt more than she expected.
"I don't think we'll be seeing each other again before I leave," she continued, forcing the words out. "I'll be busy wrapping things up at the company."
Laura Evans thought she had everything-
a successful company, a stable relationship, and a future carefully built on trust.
Until the man she loved became the reason everything fell apart.
Betrayal doesn't always come loudly. Sometimes it comes in quiet distance, in unanswered questions, in another woman standing where you once stood. When Laura discovers her partner's infidelity, she's forced to choose between staying in a love that is slowly breaking her... or walking away from the life she thought was forever.
But leaving isn't easy when the past refuses to stay buried.
Old wounds reopen. Feelings resurface. And as Laura fights to reclaim her self-worth, she learns that love can both destroy and heal-and that choosing herself may be the hardest, bravest decision of all.
Some exes are lessons.
Some are mistakes.
And some are the reason you finally learn to let go.
