Emily, who is a 25-year-old woman with a successful career in a design firm. She is very close to her brother, David, who is married to a woman named Sarah. Emily's parents had an accident and were critically injured. Due to their severe condition, Emily had to step in to handle the family's problems.

Chapter 1 Emily paced back

Emily paced back and forth in her parents' large, old-fashioned living room, the ticking of the grandfather clock echoing through the silence. The house felt emptier than ever. Her mind was racing, trying to piece together the fragments of the will she had just read. Richard's face flashed in her mind – a constant reminder of the complicated situation she found herself in. The door creaked open, and David, her older brother, walked in, his face a mask of exhaustion.

"Emily, how are you holding up?" David's voice was heavy with concern.

Emily stopped her pacing and turned to face him. "I'm trying, David. I really am. But this is just... it's too much. Why would Mom and Dad do this to us?"

David ran a hand through his hair, his shoulders sagging. "I don't know. I thought we had more time to sort things out. But with their accident... it's like everything has come crashing down on us."

"Exactly," Emily agreed, her voice trembling. "And now, on top of everything, we have to deal with the fact that I'm supposed to marry Richard. Can you believe this? It's as if they wanted to make sure that every part of my life was tangled up in this mess."

David took a deep breath and approached Emily, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. "I know it's hard. I'm not thrilled about it either, but we have to think about the family business, the legacy. Richard's involvement was always part of the plan, even if it wasn't part of our immediate plans."

Emily shook her head, frustration evident in her eyes. "It's not just about the business, David. It's about my life. I don't even know how I'm supposed to face Richard after all this. We've never really gotten along."

"I know," David said softly, his eyes filled with empathy. "But maybe this is an opportunity for us to come together as a family. If we handle this well, it could actually work out better than we expect."

The room fell into silence, punctuated only by the sound of the clock. Emily stared out the window, lost in thought. The late afternoon sun cast a warm glow over the garden, but it did little to ease the chill in her heart.

Just then, Richard himself walked in. He had a serious expression on his face, his eyes meeting Emily's with a mix of determination and unease. "Emily, David," he greeted, his voice steady but not without a trace of awkwardness. "I wanted to talk to both of you about the next steps."

Emily turned to him, trying to mask her discomfort. "Richard, I... I'm not sure where to start."

Richard nodded, understanding her hesitation. "I know this isn't easy. None of this was planned, and I can't imagine what you're going through. But we have to look at this rationally. We have responsibilities now, and I want to make this as smooth as possible for everyone."

David cleared his throat. "Richard, we appreciate your willingness to step up. It's just... a lot to process. Emily and I need to figure out how we're going to handle everything, including the wedding and the business."

Richard took a deep breath. "Let's start with the basics. We need to discuss how we're going to manage the transition. I've already started reviewing the business documents and legal matters. We need to make sure everything is in order."

Emily's frustration bubbled to the surface. "This isn't just about the business, Richard. It's about my life and my future. I didn't ask for this, and I don't know how to just switch gears and marry someone I barely know."

Richard's gaze softened slightly. "I understand, Emily. Believe me, I don't take this lightly either. I never expected to be in this position, and I'm not here to force anything on you. But if we're going to make this work, we need to be honest with each other and communicate openly."

David glanced between them, sensing the tension. "Maybe it would help if we talked more about what this means for each of us. We need to establish some boundaries and expectations."

Emily nodded, her voice weary but determined. "Okay, let's try to figure this out together. I need to understand what this marriage will really mean for both of us. And I need to know how we can manage this without losing ourselves in the process."

Richard nodded, his expression resolute. "Agreed. Let's set up a meeting to go over the details and discuss our roles moving forward. We'll take it step by step."

As the conversation continued, Emily couldn't shake the feeling of uncertainty that hung in the air. The road ahead was fraught with challenges, but for the sake of her family and her own future, she had to find a way to navigate it with grace and determination.

Two years after her marriage, Ximena lost consciousness in a pool of her own blood during a difficult childbirth. She forgot that her ex-husband was actually getting married to someone else that day. "Let's get a divorce, but the baby stays with me." His words before their divorce was finalized still lingered in her head. He wasn't there for her, but he wanted full custody of their child. Ximena would rather die than see her child call someone else mother. As a result, she gave up the ghost on the operating table with two babies left in her belly. But that wasn't the end for her... Years later, fate caused them to meet again. Ramon was a changed man this time. He wanted to keep her to himself even though she was already a mother of two children. When he found out about her wedding, he stormed into the venue and created a scene. "Ramon, I died once before, so I don't mind dying again. But this time, I want us to die together," she yelled, glaring at him with hurt in her eyes. Ximena thought he didn't love her and was happy that she was finally out of his life. But what she didn't know was that the news of her unexpected death had shattered his heart. For a long time, he cried alone due to the pain and agony. He always wished he could turn back the hands of time or see her beautiful face once again. The drama that came later became too much for Ximena. Her life was filled with twists and turns. Soon, she was torn between getting back with her ex-husband or moving on with her life. What would she choose?

"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!
