What happens When a renowned actress becomes entangled in a scandal with the nation's most powerful senator, the stakes couldn't be higher. Falling inlove in politics is a whispered sin, a fragile thread spun in the shadows, waiting to unravel. It carries the weight of hidden desires and the peril of exposed truths, a delicate dance on the edge of a knife. When the veil lifts, it's more than just hearts that break-the trust of a nation fractures, and the once-steady ground beneath powerful feet trembles. What begins in quiet whispers can end in a storm, leaving ruin in its wake and turning ambitions to ashes.

Chapter 1 Prologue

"So, you're just going to throw it all away, just like that?!" Isabelle, a brunette woman, yelled across the room, her voice trembling as she watched the woman she once loved walk down the stairs with her luggage in hand.

The woman, Alexandria, seemed unfazed by Isabelle's pleas. "Alexandria! I'm talking to you!" Isabelle shouted again, hoping that the name would stop her, and indeed, it did.

Alexandria turned to face her, her expression cold and emotionless. "Yes, Isabelle. We never should have started this in the first place," she stated calmly, but her tone was firm.

Isabelle's eyes welled up with tears, her voice breaking as she asked, "Was I... Did you even love me?"

Alexandria met her gaze briefly before turning away, picking up her luggage once more, ready to leave.

But before she could walk out the door, Isabelle gathered all her remaining strength to speak. "If you're going to leave now, then go. But don't ever come back, because there's nothing left for you here."

As Alexandria walked out without another word, Isabelle collapsed onto the staircase, hugging her knees as she cried. She couldn't help but wonder how it had come to this-how she had lost the love of her life so completely. How?

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!
