Previously, before Amira walked out of her engagement party. She and her boyfriend, Allen often plan their futures together. They discussed everything from their wedding plans to how the proposal should go. But after her first public proposal to her ex-husband, Oscar. She was terrified by the thought of having another public proposal, And she walked out of her engagement party after learning her fiance had planned one for her, Despite their plans not to surprise her with a public proposal.

When Amira's birthday celebrations rolled around. She figured out something was up, as they planned to meet at a restaurant for her birthday, unknowing to her that her fiance had planned to pop the question in front of everyone in the restaurant.

"Baby, it is true what am hearing? But I told you I don't want a public engagement. Why do this to me?" She lamented.

"Yea baby, I just wanna surprised you." He retorted without wasting time.

The shocking tale worsened her fears when her boyfriend told her he'd reserved the entire restaurant for 85 people. Amira was stunned, as she felt betrayed when people start pouring in.

"This wasn't our plans baby. Am sorry, I can't, but if you promised not to propose in front of everyone here, I will." Amira affirmed as she whispered into her boyfriend ear hastily, with tears rolling down her eyes.

"I understand baby, but I told some people, and those words got around and they were now expecting a grand gesture proposal. I gat no choice, otherwise, I wouldn't have wasted everyone's time and money coordinating and getting them down here for us." He said while frowning.

Amira was shocked and lost for words, as they both agreed never to have a public proposal. She became disturbed as they stood motionless looking at each other.

"Don't push me, baby. Because If you insist on doing this in this way that made me uncomfortable, I gat no choice." She reacted immediately while tears rolled down her eyes.

"I understand you completely now. But you're ungrateful because we both know you could easily say yes to my proposal. After all, any other woman would kill for a boyfriend, who would go through the toughest of ways to make a grand gesture proposal." He said while pouting and Amira walk out of the restaurant with a smirk on her face.

The shocking tale came to light when Amira called her childhood friend Charlotte explaining why she walked out of her engagement party, leaving her boyfriend surrounded by their family and friends. And people have been left stunned by her decision not to have a public proposal.

"Good evening Amira." Olivia saluted as she came to visit Amira to convey her situation, as she believed, Amira gats a better experience when it comes to marriage and divorce.

Amira was sitting on the balcony late evening taking some fresh air, reviving her perception when a knock came hard on the door, and before she could answer it was pushed open.

Amira was surprised to see Olivia in her house late evening.

"Wow, it's nice to see you again dear. Please come in" She gestured to her to come in.

Amira and Olivia live in a neighborhood right from a child. They attended the same school growing up as a child.

"I believe I had a related issue just like yours Amira. I wanna know why you walked out of your engagement party mid-last year and some of the experience you have when it comes to marriage and divorce?" Olivia asks abruptly and her face soars.

Amira was stunned but not as stunned as you may think because everyone knows about her stories. The damage that leads to her divorce.

Walking away from her engagement party meant exchanging the delights of a bride for the embarrassment of a deserter. Amira felt that It was better to walk away from her engagement party than to be abused and humiliated in front of everyone.

Amira sighed and turned to face her while smiling.....

"Whatever is the reason that makes you not to attend your proposal occasion. Whatever the reason may be, belief is the best, and don't leave a life of regret. If you want to be happy, do not dwell in the past, do not worry about the future, focus on living fully in the present" Amira reacted and Olivia smiled.

"I never attended my engagement party. I love my fiance and believe he's the one God has bestowed on me, but he goes against my choice." Olivia affirmed.

Amira signed hastily as a series of contemplation ran through her head.

"I don't wanna face any challenges in my marriage. Because my fiance said I have to tender a public apology before he could accept and chill out again with my preference." Olivia said instead of smiling, she was smirking.

Amira sigh hurriedly and flipped her hair over her shoulder.

"I believe we have some similarities, but I wouldn't want you to go through my experiences." Amira gestured and Olivia snickered and flipped her hair over her shoulder.

Olivia is a young and desperate girl who dreamed of getting married to her boyfriend, but she was adamant and skeptical, as she felt her choices in the marriage won't be accepted by her boyfriend. And she felt, she wouldn't tolerate that which may lead to divorce after marriage, and she skipped her engagement party and left her boyfriend humiliated.

But Olivia had every intention of saying yes to her boyfriend's proposal, but she doesn't like being put on the spot or being made to feel obligated to say yes. And she made it clear to her fiance that she would hate a public proposal. As the very idea gives her hives and makes her queasy with anxiety, as she never wants a public proposal.

While Amira was scared of having another public proposal with Allen, as the reason why she walk out of her engagement party. Because she felt she won't be able to face such a proposal after her first experience.

Amira and Olivia had similar incidents. Amira walked out of her engagement party, while Olivia ignored her public proposal. And her fiance said he won't consider proposing again until she makes an apology to his family and friends for embarrassing him and he promises to chill out about her preference in the future if she concurs. But Olivia hate it because she felt her fiance knew she would have preferred something more private and romantic just as planned than a public proposal.

It becomes wary to Olivia and when she seak for advice from friends, some suggested she should end the relationship following the argument. While some said, she should rethink the marriage proposal because the marriage should be about her, but he's making it about himself. "He made a decision to propose to you in a way he knew would make you miserable, then tried to manipulate you into it. Now, he's punishing you for not doing it."

Another of her colleagues said. "Do you really want to marry a guy who completely disregarded what you wanted and now blames you for his embarrassment?"

Olivia was traumatized by all this and she couldn't contemplate not knowing what to do. As the reason why she visited Amira, as they both have similar experiences.

"Am going to tell you something about my best friend Freya. She ignored my text messages 3 hours before her wedding, 6 months ago. She's currently facing traumatic abuse from her partner, and she filed for divorce 2weeks ago, and her husband wasn't ready to sign the divorce papers.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."

I sat in the gray, airless room of the New York State Department of Corrections, my knuckles white as the Warden delivered the news. "Parole denied." My father, Howard Sterling, had forged new evidence of financial crimes to keep me behind bars. He walked into the room, smelling of expensive cologne, and tossed a black folder onto the steel table. It was a marriage contract for Lucas Kensington, a billionaire currently lying in a vegetative state in the ICU. "Sign it. You walk out today." I laughed at the idea of being sold to a "corpse" until Howard slid a grainy photo toward me. It showed a toddler with a crescent-moon birthmark—the son Howard told me had died in an incubator five years ago. He smiled and told me the boy's safety depended entirely on my cooperation. I was thrust into the Kensington estate, where the family treated me like a "drowned rat." They dressed me in mothball-scented rags and mocked my status, unaware that I was monitoring their every move. I watched the cousin, Julian, openly waiting for Lucas to die to inherit the empire, while the doctors prepared to sign the death certificate. I didn't understand why my father would lie about my son’s death for years, or what kind of monsters would use a child as a bargaining chip. The injustice of it burned in my chest as I realized I was just a pawn in a game of old money and blood. As the monitors began to flatline and the family started to celebrate their inheritance, I locked the door and reached into the hem of my dress. I pulled out the sharpened silver wires I’d fashioned in the prison workshop. They thought they bought a submissive convict, but they actually invited "The Saint"—the world’s most dangerous underground surgeon—into their home. "Wake up, Lucas. You owe me a life." I wasn't there to be a bride; I was there to wake the dead and burn their empire to the ground.

I stood at the edge of the freezing pond on the Boone estate, my body trembling with a fear that rattled my bones. Across from me, Amanda Olsen looked immaculate in her cashmere coat, a sharp contrast to the jagged reality I was trying to hold together. "Why?" I whispered. Amanda just smiled, admitting she killed Grandpa Boone because he actually liked me. She pulled out a thick envelope-divorce papers Cordero had signed that morning. She told me he called me a parasite and was celebrating with her the night I suffered a miscarriage. Before I could even scream, Amanda lunged and shoved me into the icy water. My heavy wool coat acted like a sponge, dragging me into the artificial abyss. I thrashed and gasped for air, but Amanda just stood on the bank, watching me drown with her hands tucked casually in her pockets. As my lungs burned and the darkness closed in, I realized I had spent my entire marriage taking their abuse. I was the "foster trash" and the "gold digger" who let them win every single time. I was dying alone, hated by the husband I had tried so hard to love, while my murderer stood victorious on the shore. I never fought back. I just let them destroy me. Then, a violent spasm tore through my body. I sat up gasping, sucking in dry, air-conditioned oxygen instead of murky pond water. I wasn't dead. I was back in the opulent master suite, surrounded by red rose petals and wedding decorations. The digital clock glowed: October 14, 2019. I had gone back five years to the very night my nightmare began. The bathroom door clicked open, and Cordero stepped out, looking at me with the same cold disgust I remembered. But as I gripped the silk sheets, a new resolve hardened in my chest. This time, I wasn't going to be the victim. This time, the Boone family was going to find out exactly what happens when you push someone too far.

The Mute Heiress's Fake Marriage Pact

I was finally brought back to the billionaire Vance estate after years in the grimy foster system, but the luxury Lincoln felt more like a funeral procession. My biological family didn't welcome me with open arms; they looked at me like a stain on a silk shirt. They thought I was a "defective" mute with cognitive delays, a spare part to be traded away. Within hours of my arrival, my father decided to sell me to Julian Thorne, a bitter, paralyzed heir, just to secure a corporate merger. My sister Tiffany treated me like trash, whispering for me to "go back to the gutter" before pouring red wine over my dress in front of Manhattan's elite. When a drunk cousin tried to lay hands on me at the engagement gala, my grandmother didn't protect me-she raised her silver-topped cane to strike my face for "embarrassing the family." They called me a sacrificial lamb, laughing as they signed the prenuptial agreement that stripped me of my freedom. They had no idea I was E-11, the underground hacker-artist the world was obsessed with, or that I had already breached their private servers. I found the hidden medical records-blood types A, A, and B-a biological impossibility that proved my "parents" were harboring a scandal that could ruin them. Why bring me back just to discard me again? And why was Julian Thorne, the man supposedly bound to a wheelchair, secretly running miles at dawn on his private estate? Standing in the middle of the ballroom, I didn't plead for mercy. I used a text-to-speech app to broadcast a cold, synthetic threat: "I have the records, Richard. Do you want me to explain genetics to the press, or should we leave quietly?" With the "paralyzed" billionaire as my unexpected accomplice, I walked out of the Vance house and into a much more dangerous game.
