It was our ninth anniversary, another lavish Hamptons party, a gilded cage I' d endured for years. My wife, Victoria, reveled in the spotlight, surrounded by people who barely acknowledged my existence. Then, amidst the expensive chatter, she dropped a bombshell: she was pregnant, with her personal assistant, Leo. The room erupted in applause, but my heart, already a weak, stressed muscle, hammered in protest. Moments later, she publicly commanded me to hand over my late father' s vintage watch to Leo. When he "accidentally" shattered it on the marble floor, a collective gasp filled the room. Victoria' s icy voice cut through the silence, forcing me to apologize to Leo for his own clumsiness. This was the woman who had stepped over me, gasping from a cardiac episode, telling me not to be dramatic. Later, knowing my documented heart condition, she brutally forced a dangerous blood transfusion from me to Leo. Trapped in my own home, a prisoner under her constant surveillance, I knew this was my last chance. Leo, her conniving puppet, even set fire to my guest suite, and Victoria simply dragged him away, leaving me to choke in the flames. Nine years of silent screams, a heart slowly breaking, sacrificed for a debt I didn't owe. How could I have endured such calculated cruelty, such blatant disregard for my life and humanity? Was there no end to her manipulation, her insatiable need to dominate and destroy? But as the fire raged around me, a fierce resolve ignited. I escaped the inferno, not just to survive, but to finally reclaim my life. With my childhood friend, Chloe, by my side, I orchestrated my liberation, delivering a public farewell that would shatter Victoria' s perfect world forever. This wasn't just an escape; it was my calculated revenge, and it was glorious.

Introduction

It was our ninth anniversary, another lavish Hamptons party, a gilded cage I' d endured for years.

My wife, Victoria, reveled in the spotlight, surrounded by people who barely acknowledged my existence.

Then, amidst the expensive chatter, she dropped a bombshell: she was pregnant, with her personal assistant, Leo.

The room erupted in applause, but my heart, already a weak, stressed muscle, hammered in protest.

Moments later, she publicly commanded me to hand over my late father' s vintage watch to Leo.

When he "accidentally" shattered it on the marble floor, a collective gasp filled the room.

Victoria' s icy voice cut through the silence, forcing me to apologize to Leo for his own clumsiness.

This was the woman who had stepped over me, gasping from a cardiac episode, telling me not to be dramatic.

Later, knowing my documented heart condition, she brutally forced a dangerous blood transfusion from me to Leo.

Trapped in my own home, a prisoner under her constant surveillance, I knew this was my last chance.

Leo, her conniving puppet, even set fire to my guest suite, and Victoria simply dragged him away, leaving me to choke in the flames.

Nine years of silent screams, a heart slowly breaking, sacrificed for a debt I didn't owe.

How could I have endured such calculated cruelty, such blatant disregard for my life and humanity?

Was there no end to her manipulation, her insatiable need to dominate and destroy?

But as the fire raged around me, a fierce resolve ignited.

I escaped the inferno, not just to survive, but to finally reclaim my life.

With my childhood friend, Chloe, by my side, I orchestrated my liberation, delivering a public farewell that would shatter Victoria' s perfect world forever.

This wasn't just an escape; it was my calculated revenge, and it was glorious.

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.
