My mom needed heart surgery, and there were only three doctors in the world who could perform it. But my husband, Zayne Lawson, an expert doctor, gave up operating on my mom to fly overseas and take care of his first love, Salome Keller, who was only down with a cold. When I thought all hope was lost, my childhood sweetheart, Calum Lambert, managed to find the best doctor to operate on my mom. But in the end, because of the delay, I still lost her on the operating table. Three years later, Calum proposed to me. When I was about to say yes, I overheard a conversation between him and Zayne, now my ex. "Noemi's got a fiery temper. If she finds out her mom was never sick and that we killed her for Salome's sake, she..." said Zayne. My blood ran cold. Calum cut him off. "Enough. Salome's heart condition has been worsening ever since her mom died. Noemi's mom's heart was the only one that matched. Was I supposed to stand by and watch Salome die? "I'm marrying her and giving her a home now. She should be thankful." That was when it hit me. My mom was never sick at all. They conspired to take her heart, causing her death.
