Chapter 3

I packed my suitcase and took one last, lingering look around the house. Ari had personally chosen each piece of furniture here. I remember him holding me close, a sweet smile on his lips as he said, "Honey, this is going to be our home now. I designed this house just for you, and in the future, I'll design many more homes for us!" Sadly, this house would soon belong to someone else. Ari's promises would likely be kept with another woman.

Just as I was about to dial a familiar number, my phone rang, the call coming in first.
