DINING WITH THE DEVIL; SHE USES A SHORT SPOON
“I never asked for this life. I was in love with someone else-someone I believed I'd grow old with. The jerk jilted me for another woman. Just when I thought I was going to take a break from love and heartbreak, my father had other plans. He begged me to marry a man I didn't know, Alexander McQueen, I'm exchange to pay off the company's debt and save us from bankruptcy. My sister was there but he chose me. He made me the sacrificial lamb without considering my sanity. When I refused, he said he would ex-communicate me from the family's wealth. I didn't want that in my conscience. So I accepted the crazy offer. Alexander didn't want me either. He emphasized that I wasn't good enough for him. From the first day of our marriage, he hated me. He humiliated me, pushed me aside, and had affairs right in front of me. I had no voice, no one to believe me-not even my father. The problem worsened when I found out that I would not be able to carry my child. I didn't want to lose my home, so I opted for a surrogacy. The decision almost ruined my life. How did I navigate from it? Find out in this remarkable story!”
