She filed for divorce without hesitation, leaving her family behind. With graceful elegance, she moved effortlessly among Oceanview City's wealthy elite.

That night, he cornered her against the wall, eyes reddened, and growled, "Celestine, we're still married. Do you really think I'd allow another man's proposal?"
