The ever-cold, untouchable CEO, Ethan Sinclair, dragged me into his room after getting drunk. After a wild night, he looked at me and asked, "Want to get married?" As if possessed, I nodded. I thought it was the start of our love story, but instead, we spent three years in a hidden marriage where I never earned a real place in his life. On our anniversary, the woman he always loved came back to town. He ditched me to go to a bar for her welcome party, leaving me to wait alone in the restaurant until closing time before I had to brave the downpour to get home. When I nearly fainted from acute gastritis, he abandoned me the second she called, leaving me to fend for myself. When she asked who I was, he answered coldly, "She's just my secretary." That very day, I booked a divorce consultation, tidied up the apartment and my broken heart, and disappeared from his world.
