I lost him. 

I lost everything.

One second, he was mine-the next, he was gone. Stolen by fate, ripped from my grasp like a dream that turns to dust the moment you wake. His absence became a gaping wound, one that bled through every inch of my life. Then, as if grief wasn't cruel enough, the world took everything else. My job. My future. The people I trusted. One by one, they vanished, leaving me in a storm of silence and betrayal.  

The dust around me felt thick, toxic, pressing against my ribs. The weight of my own failure crushed me, each breath harder to take than the last. I clawed at the ruins, desperate for something-anything-to hold onto. But pain was the only thing that stayed.  

Like a whisper in the dark, a hand reached out. A lifeline wrapped in promises. A new world, a fresh start. I didn't hesitate-I seized it. What other choice did I have?  

But the world doesn't welcome the broken. It doesn't forgive those who rise from the ashes. The public saw only what they wanted to see: a woman who had betrayed the life she once had. Their hatred was relentless, venomous, branding me a traitor before they even knew my story.  

Still, I fought. I clawed my way up from the abyss, one role at a time, one shattered expectation after another. And when the dust finally settled, I was at the top. The brightest name on the screen. The actress they couldn't ignore.  

I thought I had won. I thought I had rebuilt the life they destroyed. 

Just when I felt safe, the ground beneath me crumbled once more. The nightmare I thought I escaped was waiting for me in the shadows.  

I was forced to marry my ex's rival.
