On our first Christmas as husband and wife, I spent hours cooking for my mother while Andrew left her stranded at the train station. Then he brought Lily, his precious childhood sweetheart, into our home, dressed her in my pajamas, and gave her the meal I had made. That was the moment I stopped being the obedient wife who swallowed every insult. I packed my documents, took my mother home, and filed for divorce. Andrew laughed, certain I would come crawling back—until I froze the marital assets he tried to transfer to Lily and served him with a court summons. Now Andrew is desperate to regain the wife he never valued, but I am done sacrificing myself for his family. As I rebuild my career, protect my mother, and discover a love built on respect, he finally learns the price of choosing another woman over his wife.
