Cara Smith is happily blessed with a caring and loving husband, Chris Knowles, with a true best friend, Jessica, by her side. For two years, everything is going on perfectly fine. Or so she thought? On their anniversary party, Cara discovers a shocking secret about an intimate relationship with Jessica and Chris, and apparently, everyone around knew about it except for her! Devastated and heartbroken, she filed for a divorce and headed back home to her parents. Somewhere else lies a rich and successful artist and CEO of a famous art museum, Romeo Armani, who is desperate for true love. Romeo and Cara are actually best friends since childhood, but when he asked her to come with him to France to further their career two years ago, Cara had rejected his offer to be married to Chris, although this is a sweet lie she tells herself. She couldn't dare state the real reason she left Romeo. Chris threatens to ruin Cara's career after a lie he hears from Jessica in an attempt to make him despite Cara. However, Romeo mocks him for making such threat. He is rich and powerful and announces that Cara's company would be the best no matter what Chris does. A year later and Cara becomes stronger and powerful. Chris has a change of heart and wants her back, but Cara has moved on and is finding a new love with Romeo.

So that's what we are going to do. Now, let us share our duties. I will work on the decorations, what's left is cake, drinks, appetizers and presents. You all should decide on which one you feel capable of doing." Andrew said."I'll take the cake!" Camilla exclaimed excitedly. "The caterers in charge of our wedding makes the best of the best cakes. She is very talented and I think she will be able to make a good iron man cake."Do you think it should be a statue of him? I mean Iron man. I think that will look very cool and mature!""Sure, you're on cake. Just make sure it's perfect and more than one please." Andrew ordered."I'm on appetizers." Jastrow said. "Although the caterers should do that too but it's cool, I know someone anyway.""That girl you have been dying to hook up with?" Andrew asked. "I can't believe you a
Cara had a smile on her face. Winter had come and the weather was perfectly chill. Days had gone by in peace and she could finally escape from the stress of her work and meet up with her new friends who treated her no differently even though she wasn't rich like either of them.Andrew tossed her a can of chilled coke and sunk into his soft sofa. "You know I had a feeling that those two lovebirds would be the last to join us." He said to Cara."It's always them." Jastrow added."Hey, you can't blame them," Cara said with a smile. "They have a wedding to prepare for.""True but the wedding isn't today so why aren't they here yet? Just one day to plan the perfect surprise, we are all busy with our jobs so they should not use the wedding as an excuse." Andrew explained.Cara simply smiled. Wedding preparation was always more grand than outsiders thought. They couldn't know the stress unless they were the ones getting married.So she didn't bother to raise an argument to contradict Andrew'
Days had gone by and silence was proudly dominating the home of the Knowles family. Sarah Knowles had not spoken to her husband ever since he took Jessica's side and not hers while Jessica herself walked around the house like a ghost no one could see.She didn't pretend to be nice to her mother in law, the woman was of no use to her. She smiled at her father in-law, acting nice to him just to get into his head like a parasite and feed on his brain.It was working, that was the only reason she kept it up.And to Chris, she ignored him like he was the ghost. A ghost she didn't see or cared less about. To her, he was just as insignificant as their plant to her. Less insignificant even.She found herself thinking of a man before falling asleep though, a handsome man, suit and tie yet underneath he was like Superman.He was handsome, impossibly good looking for that matter. With eyes that seduced just about anyone and a smile that was even more beautiful than a sunset and a sunrise.Romeo
Chris rose to his feet under the watchful gaze of Cara. His body shook with anger and he clenched his fist. With a glare, he warned Romeo through gritted teeth. "This isn't over yet, pretty boy. I promise you."Cara scoffed a laugh, trying not to find it unbelievable that Chris was going to such extents. Didn't he boast on the day of their divorce that she would be the one to beg him to take her back? Why was he so desperate now?She watched him storm to his car and drive off, leaving them with nothing but his dust. Her eyes landed on Romeo and sorry flickered across them as she scanned his body for any sign of injury."Are you okay? Were you hurt?"Romeo smiled softly. He had been the one that landed the blows yet she was worried about him. His eyes lit up like an excited puppy. "I'm alright." He took her hand in his. "As long as you are."She nodded her head with a weak smile. A soft sigh escaped her mouth and Romeo cupped her cheek.He looked into her eyes, his emerald balls of mag
"I think that is very weird but it's not important to me right now. Can you just tell me if Cara is here or not? I really need to talk to her like right now." Chris sounded desperate and pleadingly polite.Andrew let out a sigh. "I don't know the full story so I'm not going to pretend like I do. Just make it quick, I'll call her out for you."He poked his head into the shop and called out for Cara. Cara confusedly walked out with her boyfriend's arm around her shoulder and Rick and Camilla behind them as well and a small shopping bag. Her eyes squinted as they landed on Chris as if she wanted to confirm if she was hallucinating."Chris?!" Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, knowing that he was truly there. "What the f*ck?!""That's what I said except with an 'actual'." Andrew chirped in.Chris' eyes fell on Romeo's arms around Cara's neck and he angrily gritted his teeth. He frowned. "Have you slept with him yet?" His brow arched."What the f*ck! Why would you even ask me that!" She an
Chris got into his car and drove all the way to the place where Cara's ship had arrived. Unfortunately, he didn't meet anyone. He felt so angry but decided to calm down and check around, they couldn't have gotten too far ahead if he sped up.Only a while ago did Andrew update it that their ship had sailed back safely which meant they were still around somewhere.He bumped into one of the dock workers who immediately apologized to him on seeing his nice dressing and car keys in his hand."Uh excuse me!" He called out to the man who was about to walk away after a short bow of his head. "I'm looking for my... Friend...? My friend uh... Andrew Malhotra, his ship sailed in just a while ago and he texted me to meet up here but I don't know where.""Ohh, I'm sorry but I don't know that name. Except if he was one of young master Romeo Armani's friends." The man stated.Chris nodded his head swiftly. "Yes, yes! He's one of you-- one of Romeo's friends. He is tall, handsome, tanned skin and bro
Jessica bent her head to the side slightly. "Are you even hearing me?"The maid blinked. "Yes! Oh of course! Thank you so much! I really appreciate this opportunity ma'am, thank you so much! I promise to return this favor someday one way or the other." Tears brimmed at the young girl's eyes.She looked slightly over twenty with beautiful blue eyes and silky blonde hair. Her small body was wrapped in her maid uniform of black and white. Her small dress was black while the apron clinging on to her waist was white. A color to match the scarf on her head.Jessica stared at her with an unreadable expression and rolled her eyes. "Go on then. And next time, don't make a promise you're not so sure you can keep. Also, I don't know how long you get to keep the job so don't look at me like you worship me now."The maid chuckled softly before running off in excitement.Jessica rolled her eyes once more and shook her head. People were so gullible, she thought to herself.The thought led her back t
Jessica slammed her fist on the table and rose to her feet, aggressively shoving the seat behind her further away. "This is outrageous! It is more than outrageous!" She fumed. "How can you ask for something as lowly as this from me?" She squinted. "I may have little value in your eyes but I know my worth enough to know that I will never be seen working the cash register at some dumb café!" She kept her head high as she spoke.Michael fumed. "How dare you talk back to your mother-in-law like that?!" He rose to his feet like a rising storm. "Do you have any idea of the gravity of what you just did?" He pointed a judgmental finger at her face. "This is the highest form of disrespect in front of your parents in-law!""Go ahead!" Jessica barked. "Get angry! Yell all you want but let me tell you this, however angry you get, it will not drive me to do something as lowly as this. Can't you even stop to think about this for once? This isn't embarrassing for me alone but the entire Knowles fami
Romeo cupped Cara's face in his arms and smiled softly. "I know. I remember." She blinked. "What?" "One year ago when I went with you to face your ex husband, I remember they said something like that and it really hurt you. I don't have a problem with that. Just to be sure, we will go see my doctor once we are back in the city and whatever he says, we'll move on from there." He explained to her with a calm look on his face. A single tear drop trailed down her face. "You... You remember...? Why didn't you... I mean, they said you love kids, why didn't you... I mean, why are you--""Because I love you." He cut her off. Wrapping his hands around her waist, he pulled her in closer to himself and smiled. "I know I love kids but I can imagine myself living without one of my own... Somehow, I can't imagine myself living without you. Besides, there are tons of kids out there without parents, I can take in as many as I want since I love kids so much." She couldn't control her tears as they
"Have you seen him?!" The music was nearly deafening as Cara yelled out to her friend. "I can't hear ya!" Jessica shouted back. "Wait here, let me go find him."Cara was enjoying the time of her life that evening at the club, except, her husband was nowhere to be found. It was their second year anniversary and it still felt like yesterday when she had said yes to his proposal. "Okay, just drink more. It's your day!" Jessica passed her drink to her, watching Cara sip from its content. "Come on, don't be a bore! Drink up.""You know I'm drunk already." Cara placed the cup on the table, her eyes scanning the room for her husband, Chris."I'll go get him. And you should drink up, honey. It's not like you're the one who's going to drive. Chris will take you home, and you guys can have the night of your lives tonight. Who's gonna be on top in bed?" Jessica teased her friend as a smile worked its way to her face. "Shut up, Jessica." Cara felt her cheeks burn red. Everytime she thought abo...
