“I’m sure she wasn’t feeling sorry when she’s all up on my husband last night!”

When Alexandra finally married her childhood crush at the age of 25, she didn't expect that she would one day catch another woman in the arms of her husband while she hid in the bedroom closet. But there she was, anger, betrayal, and sadness washed over her all at once as she stared at her husband and the woman who had the same dark brown eyes and dark hair as her. They looked almost identical...?

That same night, she stumbled onto the beach and before she knew it, she was sitting across the table from her high school ex, Caleb, looking down at the terms of their marriage contract that he drafted up hastily. 

Fuelled by anger and betrayal by the people she once loved, Alexandra knew she had to take things into her own hands. Together with Caleb, they plot her revenge.

“Let’s go,” Caleb demanded as he grabbed Alexandra by her wrist without a warning, pulling her away from the chaos and out of the ballroom in a matter of seconds while both Ethan and Hannah watched them leave with a smug smile on their faces.

“Why are we the ones leaving?” Alexandra questioned, yanking her wrist out of his grasp as soon as they were out of their sight, just the two of them hidden behind a wall somewhere. 

Caleb let out a deep breath. “I have my reasons, Al. Trust me.”

“Well, they can’t just -”

“Hey, hey listen.”

He was now looking down at her with both hands on her shoulders as she had her back pushed up against the wall, their faces only a few inches apart. “What?” 

A smirk etched itself onto his face. “I promise they will regret everything they had said earlier.”

“How so?”

“You’ll find out soon.”

"I found a new job," she stated simply, her voice remained unwavering as she refused to be intimidated by him, not breaking eye contact as she spoke.

He leaned forward, coming closer to her now, their faces dangerously close. He paused briefly before he turned to whisper into her ear. "Don't think I don't know about your little game."

"Who said I was playing any games?" Alexandra asked, batting her eyelashes innocently.

She brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear, revealing a gentle smile. Her eyes keenly watched as Ethan's gaze fell on her lips before returning to her eyes, and Alexandra's lips stretched just the slightest.

This man was revolting. He enjoyed women as though they were tools, and wasn't able to appreciate what he had until he lost it. This was the same with his relationships— now that Alexandra was no longer with him, she could tell the way he looked at her was different from when they were married.
