The midday sun streamed through the office window, casting a warm glow across the cluttered desk where Nathan sat, immersed in files and paperwork.

Brixlee felt her eyes brimming with tears, her voice shaking as she struggled to find a response. "But... Nathan and I already married," she managed to choke out, her voice barely above a whisper.
