Lavender faced the ultimate betrayal after discovering that her fiancé, the man she loved most, had been using her all along. He had only dated her to seek revenge against her father and to claim everything her late mother had left her as a gift to his real fiancee.

Devastated, Lavender lost everything she owned to him, and her family was plunged into dire poverty as a result. Heartbroken, she fled her past, running away from her disowned father and the agonizing pain. She dedicated her life to caring for the "blessings" her ex-fiancé had left behind.

But just when Lavender thought she had found a measure of peace, everything starts falling apart again. Forced to reconcile with her ex, Lavender is torn—he is a changed man now, but to her, he remains an enemy. As her bottled-up emotions resurface, past cases reopening, and his persistent efforts to win back her affection intensify, how long can Lavender's hatred last?

It Should Have Been Like This

Lavender nodded, her eyes still fixed on what she was doing. Her hair was weaved back into three big fancy braids and she had some green stuff all over her face. "Welcome home, kids, how was your day?" Is that my shirt? 


"Mommy, are those our books?" Serenity asked, jumping on the sofa next to her mother. She stretched her hand out and poked the green stuff. "Can I get a face mask too, Mommy?" 


Lavender nodded. "Your grandmother is mixing more in the kitchen. You can ask her to make it for you too," Serenity jumped down from the chair and ran to the kitchen. Lavender was distracted. I continued to stare at the shirt on her body. It was my favorite green shirt but the edge of the sleeves had been tinted pink, the same with the hem. I wouldn't have recognized the shirt if it wasn't for my initials that were written on the collar.
