In order to marry me, Casper kneeled outside Mr. Stratton's study for three days and three nights despite everyone's obstruction, and he finally agreed.
After marriage, we loved each other very much, but his childhood sweetheart Felicity became my biggest trouble.
We were jealous and fought for eight years.
Until I had two miscarriages, and Felicity was gradually neglected.
But as soon as Casper took over the Stratton family business, he asked for a divorce from me, and then turned around and held a century wedding with another woman - my former stepsister Delilah.
Felicity and I were both hurt.
