Emelia thought that she had a successful career and a loved husband, Victor. But all this was broken by the arrival of Victor's “childhood friend”, Lily. Although Victor claimed that they were just friends, Victor's casual intimacy with Lily and Lily's frequent display of their affection made Emelia feel like an outsider in the marriage. Victor even gave Lily the promotion that originally belonged to Emelia. Emelia fell into suspicion of Victor, but according to Victor's explanation, these all seemed to be excusable. Until Emelia discovered the deeper secrets of Lily and Victor... What will she do? Will she continue to forgive Victor or leave resolutely?

Chapter 1 — Suspicious Ties

Emelia’s POVAlexis: Um, bestie! Why's Victor at a restaurant with another woman?I had to reread the text several times to make sure I had read things correctly. Surely she had to be mistaken, right?Victor wasn't the type to casually dine with just anyone, much less a random woman.Ding! Another text came through.Alexis sent a photo this time, and there was no mistaking Victor's slicked back blonde hair. A massive chandelier hung above him, so I knew the place had to be expensive.But who was the woman that was with him? In the photo, her back was towards the camera, so there was no seeing her facial features at all. The only thing I could see was that she had long, wavy brown hair—reminiscent of my own.And why did he look so… at ease? Tender? It was almost as if he was admiring her. The Victor I knew was always serious and indifferent towards other people. It made him appear cold-hearted to others, even though that wasn't truly the case.Still, it was so odd seeing him act this way. I ...

Chapter 2 — Change of Plans
Emelia’s POVShock hijacked my nerves as I sat there in disbelief. Victor had never lied to me before, and now all of a sudden he was?He'd never hung up on me like this before either! What was going on?It was genuinely starting to worry me with how Victor was behaving. Was everything truly okay with him? Was this person actually just a friend?I stayed up all night as my mind ran rampant. I stressed cleaning our closet and organized every article of clothing to try and settle down, but it didn't work. It wasn't until close to midnight that Victor finally came home."Hey, I'm surprised to see you're awake." Victor hung up his coat and came to sit next to me. "Is everything alright?""I should be asking you that question. What happened earlier tonight? I was trying to call you and ask you when you'd be home and you just hung up on me."Victor took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to me. "I didn't realize that my phone was on low battery and it died."I thought about holding

Chapter 3 — A Seed of Doubt
Emelia’s POVI stood in disbelief as Victor rushed to Lily's side. It had to have been her—his changed behavior for her matched his changed behavior for the woman from last night!Not only had he lied to me about who he was with the other night, but he completely canceled plans with his grandfather for her.What was really going on between them? Why couldn't he just tell me the truth from the start?As I got a closer look at Lily, I found that what surprised me the most was the way she looked. Her hair was the same shade of brown as mine; same long, and wavy length; and even the natural highlights were identical.There was also a distinct beauty mark at the corner of her mouth—same as my own.Surely this was a coincidence, right?"Lily! Is everything okay?" Victor asked, his voice laced with worry. "I got here just as soon as I could.""Everything's fine now that you're here." Lily's smile was fragile. “I was too scared, I thought I wouldn’t see you again…” her voice trembled.“I'm h

Chapter 4 — Wrongly Accused
Emelia’s POV"Who lies about something like that?! You know I didn't do that at all!" I basically yelled."Emelia! Lily's in the hospital, and you're throwing glass at her? What reason could you have to do that? Why would you try to hurt her?" Victor shouted back. His voice was cold towards me, as he held onto Lily's hand."So you're just going to believe her over your own wife?! Just like that? Like you actually think I'd do something so low as to hurt someone in the hospital?!" I fired back.Instead, Victor ignored my words and drew his attention to Lily and the broken glass. I watched as he carefully collected the pieces and threw them away."Are you hurt anywhere? Did the glass get you?" Victor asked softly, giving her hand a light squeeze."No, no. I'm okay now that you're here." Lily's smile was small. "Please don't leave me alone with her again..."Irritation crawled underneath my skin like a bug just by hearing Victor's change in tone as he spoke to Lily. I had to tune out the

Chapter 5— Split Interests
Emelia's POVA ringing hijacked my hearing and suddenly, my head started to spin. Even in my place of work I couldn't escape that name.Lily, Lily, Lily.Why was she everywhere I went?"Why is she being given my position, Trevor? Am I not doing enough?"Trevor sighed. "You know you're one of our best, Emelia. And I really am sorry, but Mr. Russo made it perfectly clear that this decision was his—you know I can't refute his word."I knew Victor’s words couldn't be swayed by anyone.Still, I could maybe accept someone else getting the promotion, but not Lily. Especially since she only got the position because of her connections, and not because she was qualified.It also didn't help that she and Victor had secrets between them I knew nothing about…"Are you alright? You look a little unwell." Trevor asked."I’m fine, I just need a moment." I responded. "Do you mind if I go back to my office?""Of course, I know it's a lot to take in." Trevor looked at me with concern. "But don't be too

Chapter 6 – Revealing Names
Emelia's POVTime slowed to an agonizing crawl as I felt the muscles in my body freeze. I couldn't even think of anything smart to say. Victor had never mentioned anything in the company belonging to Lily, much less the entity as a whole! There was nothing about the company that implied their connection, which was what confused me even more.Lily noticed my shock and looked at me with a smug smile. "Actually, it's not of your concern. Simply put, Victor is just too good to me. I mean, I understand you're married and everything, but you don't understand him like I do. Or maybe he just doesn't value you that much?"You're not actually serious, are you?" I was almost unable to control my anger. Lily shook her head. "Don’t speak to me in that manner, I'm simply telling the truth. You've known him for all of what? 3 years? Why do you think you know Victor like I do?""Lily!" Victor reprimanded. "That’s enough.""But…" Lily's expression changed. She pouted her lip with tears welling at

Chapter 7 — Party Crasher
Emelia's POVThe love and warmth of our shared moment vanished like a water droplet against scorching pavement. Irritation crawled up my spine at the sight of her texts.Especially when she was still questioning what was supposed to be Victor's decision on the matter of the shares."Lily seems to still be concerned about my decision about giving you the company shares. But don't worry, I won't be going back on my word. She means well, though."Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!Then four more text messages came in."It seems like she has more to complain about." I answered flatly.Victor turned his phone so it would face me. "Look for yourself. None of it should be that important during work hours anyway."Lily: Emelia really isn’t up to the task. She’s only fit to be an employee. Don’t let marriage cloud your judgment :(Lily: How can I not worry about you? In the company, I not only have to look out for you, but also manage my own work. It's exhausting!Lily: All this paperwork is giving me a

Chapter 8 — Chasing the Past
Emelia's POV"What do you mean I look like you?" I couldn't help but blurt out and ask.When I first saw Lily at the hospital, this entire time, I always thought that she looked like me. Now given how their relationship predated what I had with Victor, it didn't even cross my mind that it was the other way around—me looking like her.My stomach started to churn at the possibilities of her words and our looks.Was there a possibility that I was simply Lily's replacement?Still, I kept my face as natural as I could make it, and tried to hold the vomit that threatened to rise."I mean, look at us! " Lily placed her hands on her hips. "Same long, wavy brown hair—even our natural highlighting matches. Oh! And that beauty mark on the side of your face. There's definitely no copying that!" "You know, I couldn't help but notice the same thing when I first met you…" I agreed. "Isn't that a little bit weird, Victor?""Is it?" Victor tilted his head. "Brown hair seems a little common, no?""Tha

Chapter 9 — Spoken Bonds
Emelia's POVWhat in the actual hell? What did Lily mean by that?I was completely blindsided. Even with these doubts, I didn't think the extent of their "friendship" ran like this. Victor had reassured me time and time again.So had he been lying this entire time?I could just barely hold back my tears, but I clasped my hand over my mouth so I could.I remained hidden in the shadows as I diverted all of my attention to their conversation.Despite not being the type to generally eavesdrop, I knew in this instance, I needed to. I needed to hear just exactly what was going on between them, even though I wasn't sure if I could take any more heartache for the night.But it was time I found out the extent of their relationship—the truth. Even though I knew it'd hurt me."Don't start, Lily. I'm not the one to blame here!" I heard Victor say."Why are you so afraid to face the truth?" Lily almost screamed. "The truth that your marriage was a mistake, just like mine!”"You don't get to talk

Chapter 10 — Not So Accidental
Emelia's POVFor a while, there was nothing but black surrounding me. If this was the afterlife, this was depressing. However, it seemed like the spirits had a different plan for me. Beep… Beep… Beep…I heard the steady beeping of a machine. I felt my consciousness being pulled by the reality of being alive. As I slowly opened my eyes, a sharp pain ran pierced my head and ran down the side of my body.It made me wince and groan slightly."Emmy, please…" A familiar, warm voice of a woman pleaded. "I need you to wake up. Please…"The fluorescent lights above were blinding, but I opened my eyes nonetheless. I looked around the immaculately clean beige, plain room I was in."W-where am I?" I managed to say, although my voice was hoarse."Emelia!" The woman's voice cheered. "You're finally awake! It's about time! I couldn't imagine life without you, bestie!"I shook my head slightly and looked up to a pair of smiling blue eyes and golden blonde hair. It was Alexis."Y-you're here." I smil
