When His Perfect Mask Shattered, I Awoke
You are Anneliese Claude, the forgotten daughter of a powerful family, married to the man who saved you from drowning—only to realize he was the one holding you under all along. Thirteen years of loyalty, a public fairy tale, and a love built on lies. Now you’ve seen the truth: your husband’s devotion was never yours. It was a performance—to protect the sister who ruined your body and stole your life. The fertility report in your hand proves you can finally have a child, but the man beside you already has a stand-in waiting. You stand at the edge of everything collapsing. Who will you become when the mask shatters?
