Julian Moreau has built a life of wealth and prestige, a dazzling empire born from ambition and sacrifice. But beneath the gilded veneer lies a man tormented by expectations—his mother's relentless demand for a family and his own inability to envision a life beyond his business. The hollow luxury of his existence is shattered one fateful night when an accident nearly claims his life, and a mysterious young woman named Isabella risks everything to save him.

Isabella, a selfless girl from a humble background, is thrust into Julian's world of opulence after a desperate plea from his mother, Cilla Moreau. With the promise of money that could change her family's life, Isabella agrees to marry Julian, a man she barely knows. As she steps into the grandeur of the Moreau estate, Isabella is faced with the enormity of her decision—and the daunting task of breaking through Julian's guarded heart.

Bound by a sense of duty, a promise, and an unexpected act of courage, Julian and Isabella are thrown together in a world neither fully understands. Can love grow in the shadow of an arrangement built on desperation? And will Julian find the courage to confront the emptiness within him before it’s too late?

"The Scars We Carry" is a poignant tale of redemption, resilience, and the transformative power of love, where two lives collide in the unlikeliest of circumstances, and fate tests the limits of their hearts..

The Scars We Carry

Lucy returned home and shouted, "Everyone, come here!"

Her voice echoed through the house. She even called Lisa. Slowly, everyone gathered—Lisa included.

Julian crossed his arms. "What is it now, Lucy?"

Lucy smirked. "Titan and Rose are plotting against you and Isabella. And you, Lisa, played your part by placing this camera."

Rose stepped forward, eyes wide. "What are you talking about?"

Lucy turned to Titan. "Titan, you're the smartest one here. You must know."

Cilla spoke up. "Then speak, Lucy."

Lucy smiled. "Gladly. Rose and Titan are plotting to stop the wedding."

Everyone gasped. Isabella looked especially shocked.

"Why?" Isabella asked, her voice trembling.

Lucy pointed at Rose. "Because Rose is in love with Julian. And Titan? Titan hates you, Isabella."

Lucy raised an eyebrow. "Am I? I have someone who will confess."

Rose whipped her head toward Titan. "No…"

Lucy grinned. "Rose will confess. Tell them, Rose. Are you in love with Julian? Do you want to stop the wedding?"

Rose, flustered, shook her head. "No!"

Lucy leaned in. "Then why are there so many photos of Titan, you, and Julian together?"

Rose glared. "As I said, Titan sees me as her sister and Julian as her big brother."

Lucy paused, studying her. "Okay. I believe you."

Julian narrowed his eyes. "So, you're saying she's right?"

Lucy gave a sly smile. "Yes and no. She's right about Titan seeing you both as family… but she's lying about the rest. The day Titan joined MII, I knew they were planning something. I even took precautions—like calling Lisa and placing cameras all over MII."

Lucy burst out laughing. "Relax. Just kidding. I have no proof. But tomorrow? We're heading to MII. Titan's room will tell us everything. Now, let's get some rest. We'll need the energy."

Later that night...

Lisa stood before a camera with a confident smile.

"Here at LTFN, we reveal the family drama of the Moreaus. Because no family is perfect. Goodnight."

The camera shut off. Lisa waved her goodbyes. Everyone headed to bed—except Rose and Titan.

"She needs to go," Rose whispered.

"Yes," Rose hissed. "If we don't stop her, she'll turn Julian against both of us."

Titan stepped back. "No… we can't."

"I will." Rose's voice was cold. She dialed a number.

Rose's gaze hardened. "Lucy Moreau. The door will be open for you."

The voice replied, "It will be done."

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the house, Lucy looked out her window with a knowing smile.
