Aurora Grey thought she could win her husband, Lucas Rossi's heart, even if it took years. For three long years, she endured his coldness, hoping that one day he would see her as more than just a convenient substitute. But when she reads the headlines announcing Lucas’s return to the city with his ex-girlfriend, Julia Mayhem, the truth hits her like a dagger—she never had a place in his heart. Lucas's affection had always belonged to Julia, and now that she’s back, Aurora knows her time is up. No longer willing to be the woman in the shadows, Aurora takes control of her fate. With a sharp resolve, she demands a divorce, choosing to reclaim her dignity rather than watch the man she loves cherish someone else. But Lucas Rossi isn’t a man who easily lets go of what he considers his. The moment Aurora steps out of his life, he realizes just how deeply she had entwined herself in his heart. Driven by a need to reclaim what he’s lost, Lucas tracks her down, determined to make her see that she belongs with him—and no one else.
Caleb pushed open the door, padding over to his mother's side with a serious look on his face.
He looked up at her expectantly, his brows drawn together in the same determined way Julia remembered from someone.
Julia leaned forward, crossing her hands under her chin with a feigned warmth in her smile.
"What's on your mind, honey?" she asked sweetly, though inside, her curiosity flared.
If Caleb had any information about Aurora, she wanted every detail.
Caleb hesitated, a small frown darkening his face. "Daddy took me to see Nana," he began slowly. "But when we got there, Mrs. Aurora was with her… and then Gabriel brought Aria and Leo, too." He huffed, folding his little arms and lowering his voice. "They were calling her Great-Nana, like she was theirs."
Julia's eyes narrowed slightly.
After catching a glimpse of Aurora in the mansion through Caleb's tablet some time back, Julia had wasted no time doing her own digging.
