Synopsis
For ten years, I loved Paul Wesley quietly. I warmed dinners he never came home to eat. I smiled beside him at galas where strangers praised the life I helped him build. I remembered his motherās medicines, his foundationās donors, his staffās troubles, and every fragile piece of his world he never noticed I was holding together. To everyone else, Paul was a billionaire. Powerful. Brilliant. Untouchable. To me, he was the man who once kissed my wrist before every meeting and called me his luck. Then Chloe Sullivan came back. A grieving widow. Fragile. Beautiful. The kind of woman everyone rushed to protect. Paul said she needed family. So I opened our home to her. I gave her kindness. She took my place. She sat in my chair, wore my shawl, cried into my husbandās arms, and somehow I became cruel for noticing. Then she accused me of stealing her dead husbandās wedding ring in front of Paulās family. I waited for my husband to defend me. Instead, he looked at my bag and said, āAlicia, please donāt make this harder.ā The ring was found later under Chloeās pillow. No one apologized loudly enough to matter. Still, I stayed. Because leaving a marriage is not easy when you remember the man he used to be. Then came the hospital. I was holding his motherās hand when Chloe appeared in the doorway, trembling, saying she couldnāt breathe. Paul looked at me. Then he looked at her. And once again, he chose her first. That night, I left my wedding ring beside his untouched dinner with a note: I was never asking you to worship me. I was only asking you to see me. Then I walked away from the life where I had become easier to lose than to love. Now Paul knows the truth. Chloe lied. I saved his company. I built the foundation that carried his name. And for years, I was lonely while standing right beside him. Now he wants me back. But regret is not redemption. Apologies are not love. And I am no longer the wife who waits to be chosen.
