Our engagement felt like a fairytale, complete with a gleaming diamond and seven years of shared history. I believed Michael and I were building our future, hand in hand. But at the annual gala, the illusion shattered. Michael was on the dance floor, not with me, but intimately whispering to his intern, Jessica. Moments later, in his car, I found a diamond necklace – not for me, as he coldly snatched it away. "That's not for you," he said, his voice flat. From then on, the disrespect spiraled. He threw Jessica's misplaced scarf at me, denigrated my dream wedding dress, and abandoned me for her petty dramas. My health issues were met with harsh insults and dismissed as "bad manners." While he flaunted Jessica online, I was expected to cater to her bizarre demands, like making special chia seed pudding for her made-up "episodes." Each blow chipped away at my belief. How could the man I'd dedicated seven years to treat me with such casual cruelty? Was I truly so disposable? The overheard truth pierced deepest: "Love Sarah? Not really. But she's been around like a puppy..." No more. The tears dried. I cut my wedding dress into ribbons, packed my bags, and left him a note: "We're done." He could chase, she could scheme, but my patience was exhausted. My life, finally, was mine again.

Introduction

Our engagement felt like a fairytale, complete with a gleaming diamond and seven years of shared history.

I believed Michael and I were building our future, hand in hand.

But at the annual gala, the illusion shattered.

Michael was on the dance floor, not with me, but intimately whispering to his intern, Jessica.

Moments later, in his car, I found a diamond necklace – not for me, as he coldly snatched it away.

"That's not for you," he said, his voice flat.

From then on, the disrespect spiraled.

He threw Jessica's misplaced scarf at me, denigrated my dream wedding dress, and abandoned me for her petty dramas.

My health issues were met with harsh insults and dismissed as "bad manners."

While he flaunted Jessica online, I was expected to cater to her bizarre demands, like making special chia seed pudding for her made-up "episodes."

Each blow chipped away at my belief.

How could the man I'd dedicated seven years to treat me with such casual cruelty?

Was I truly so disposable?

The overheard truth pierced deepest: "Love Sarah? Not really. But she's been around like a puppy..."

No more.

The tears dried.

I cut my wedding dress into ribbons, packed my bags, and left him a note: "We're done."

He could chase, she could scheme, but my patience was exhausted.

My life, finally, was mine again.

My world revolved around Jax Harding, my older brother's captivating rockstar friend. From sixteen, I adored him; at eighteen, I clung to his casual promise: "When you're 22, maybe I'll settle down." That offhand comment became my life's beacon, guiding every choice, meticulously planning my twenty-second birthday as our destiny. But on that pivotal day in a Lower East Side bar, clutching my gift, my dream exploded. I overheard Jax' s cold voice: "Can't believe Savvy's showing up. She' s still hung up on that stupid thing I said." Then the crushing plot: "We' re gonna tell Savvy I' m engaged to Chloe, maybe even hint she' s pregnant. That should scare her off." My gift, my future, slipped from my numb fingers. I fled into the cold New York rain, devastated by betrayal. Later, Jax introduced Chloe as his "fiancée" while his bandmates mocked my "adorable crush"-he did nothing. As an art installation fell, he saved Chloe, abandoning me to severe injury. In the hospital, he came for "damage control," then shockingly shoved me into a fountain, leaving me to bleed, calling me a "jealous psycho." How could the man I loved, who once saved me, become this cruel and publicly humiliate me? Why was my devotion seen as an annoyance to be brutally extinguished with lies and assault? Was I just a problem, my loyalty met with hatred? I would not be his victim. Injured and betrayed, I made an unshakeable vow: I was done. I blocked his number and everyone connected to him, severing ties. This was not an escape; this was my rebirth. Florence awaited, a new life on my terms, unburdened by broken promises.
