Life... Was beautiful... Why wouldn't it be? They were everything a perfect love story needed. Vincent and you. It was nothing short of a Cinderella story. A kind and hardworking girl... And her prince charming. It all started five years ago. You were a nurse in a hospital. When... they wheeled in an injured man. You had taken care of him... he... instantly fell in love with your kind soul.

Vincent had been different back then—vulnerable, grateful, utterly captivated. You had seen a side of him no one else had, the side that longed for something real. Your love grew in the quiet moments, in shared laughter, in whispered promises under the soft glow of the city lights. He had swept you into a world you never imagined for yourself, a world of luxury, passion, and deep devotion.

Your wedding had been a dream, a grand declaration of love in front of the entire world. He had held your hands and vowed eternity. And you had believed him.

The years that followed had been a blur of happiness. Lavish vacations, candlelit dinners, and the simple joy of waking up beside him every morning. He had adored you, worshipped you, made you feel like the only woman in the universe. And you... you had loved him with all your heart, believing with unwavering certainty that nothing could ever shatter what you had.

Until one evening, when everything changed. It was late, Vincent had been distant for weeks, but you had brushed it off—work, stress, the weight of responsibility. But tonight, something felt different. As you moved through the house, your heart clenched at the sight of his phone, carelessly left on the table. A single notification. A message from an unknown number. A name you didn't recognize.

Your fingers trembled as you unlocked the screen. And then, the world crumbled. The messages were undeniable. Intimate. Familiar. Many unknown women, countless flings and mistresses. Your vision blurred as you scrolled through the undeniable proof. Pictures. Hotel bookings. Late-night confessions of longing. The same man who once told you you were his world... had built another world behind your back.

The phone slipped from your hands, the sound of it hitting the floor echoing through the silent room. The air felt too heavy, your own heartbeat deafening in your ears.

Somewhere in the distance, the front door opened. His familiar footsteps approached, carrying the scent of expensive cologne. He walked into the bedroom with that same bright smile that he always seemed to wear. His face lighting up like a bulb at the sight of you. He walked over to you and wrapped his arms around your waist with that same easy affection. And pulled you close, nuzzling against your neck.

"Baby..." He murmured, his hot breath fanning against your neck.
