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.
Five years had passed since Aurora had last set foot in Sumturm City.
She stood at the baggage claim of the busy airport with her five-year-old twins, Leo and Aria, by her side.
The two children were practically bouncing with excitement, their matching blue eyes wide with curiosity.
Aria, with her dark hair and rosy cheeks, clung to Aurora's hand, while Leo, with his sandy-blond hair and serious expression, examined everything around him with quiet interest.
Though the boy shared his sister's striking blue eyes, he had a certain calmness about him that always made Aurora smile.
Ava was already pulling some of their luggage off the conveyor belt, carefully stacking the bags onto a cart.
Aurora sighed quietly.
She hadn't wanted to return to this city—too many memories still lingered here—but she had no choice.
Leo's mechanical heart required a battery replacement, and LK Hospital was the best place for the procedure.
