My life as a celebrated chef was perfectly seasoned: a Michelin-starred restaurant, a demanding but respected father, and a beautiful fiancée, Chloe, who promised an empire.
Then, one catastrophic night, I found Chloe, my love, in a passionate embrace with Liam, my supposed business partner, amidst the dry storage of my father' s restaurant.
Rage, blinding and raw, consumed me. A fight erupted, sacks of flour burst, and cooking oil slicked the floor, transforming our kitchen into a powder keg.
My ailing father, drawn by the chaos, collapsed, his eyes filled with disappointment, not at the scene, but at me.
Chloe seized the moment, twisting the narrative: "He' s lost it, Dad! He' s going to destroy everything!"
Liam, at Chloe's silent command, ignited a kitchen torch and tossed it into the spilled oil and flour.
The world exploded in flames as Chloe dragged Liam away, screaming, "Ethan did this! He tried to kill us all!"
