Claire Reed thought she married the man of her dreams, Evander Kensington, but she had no idea that their marriage was built on a lie; a family vow that trapped him by her side. His heart, however, belonged to another woman, his white lotus. No matter how hard Claire tried to win Evander’s love, he only grew colder, and his family treated her like she didn’t exist. When she lost their unborn child, Claire’s world shattered. She wanted to see Evander, but he didn't bother to check on her. Instead, he went to meet that white lotus. Unable to bear the betrayal, she decided to free Evander from this marriage, leaving behind a letter and divorce papers, claiming she now had someone else she loved! ~~~~ "You’re mine, and I’ll never let you go!” he declared, his voice dark with possessiveness. “But I don’t want you anymore! You can have Susan—I’m now in love with someone else!” Claire shot back, her words sharp and final. "You can't be with anyone. Do you even know how sleepless nights I've without you?" Evander's hold on her tightened. "I'll see how you become some else when I'll claim you," he pronounced before crashing his lips on her.
Susan's POV
I wasn't done there. I had plans… plans that would ruin Claire forever and make her hate herself.
Yes, I had sent people to abduct her while I was on my way to the mansion. I set everything up and even paid them in advance, making sure that every detail was covered. I knew that when Claire saw Eliam calling me "mother" and Evander as "father," she would go crazy. I figured if she had even a little bit of pride left, she would leave him for good.
And just as I thought, Claire dashed off out of the mansion, as if her world was torn apart, "again".
