Once the pillar of her life, Jared now feels like a stranger, more lighthouse than man—steady but unreachable, leaving Jerica adrift in loneliness and suspicion. When she catches him leaving work early with a mysterious woman in a red dress, her world shatters. As she balances her growing suspicion with the suspicious arrival of Harold Braddock, Jerica's former flame, the lines between loyalty, betrayal, and her own desires blur. Her once steady life spirals as her husband’s frosty demeanor and her own emotional wounds collide. As the emotional distance between her and Jared widens, Jerica must decide whether to fight for a love that seems to have slipped away—or walk away from the man who once completed her. What will she decide? What is Jared's secret? Was their marriage truly over? Has she truly stopped loving him? This is a heartstring-pulling journey of love, pride, and the devastating cost of hidden truths and unspoken desires, where one woman must decide if she’ll fight for the man she married or leave him behind to save herself.

Had She Been Wrong?
Jerica blinked, pulling herself back to the present. The gala. She understood Lila's excitement though. It was a high-profile event thanks to the few A-list celebrities being the patron who attend. The gala created news each year.
Jerica hadn't attended in years, not since her mother's passing. For her, it was just another reminder of everything she had tried to escape. The thought of returning to that world, where everyone still praised her mother and spoke of her like she was some sort of saint, was unbearable.
Some people who knew her mother for who she was, hated her and showed it to her. After her mother's death, Jerica didn't want to be a part of that world anymore. She inherited the foundation as it was written clearly in her mother's will. Jerica didn't have the strength to handle it and appointed people to look after the foundation and all the charity work.
Jerica for now was just the Honorary Head of the Foundation.
