She’s three hours into her honeymoon when her husband’s phone won’t stop buzzing.
"Can’t wait to see you tonight. ?? —Alexandra"
She keeps scrolling. Months of messages from his mistress.
"When’s she leaving? She’ll never know."
That’s how Melody learns the truth: her husband, Leo, has been cheating for over a year.
But the affair wasn’t the worst of it.
Leo found out Melody was about to inherit a fortune - and only married her to steal it. That’s why he won’t give her a divorce. A wife he doesn’t love means nothing to him. A rich wife is worth the wait.
But Melody doesn’t go home. She stays in Thailand, alone and heartbroken. And that’s where she meets another man.
His name is Noah. Steady. Kind. The sort of man who pulls her out of the ocean when she’s drowning and looks at her like she matters. Slowly, she starts to feel like herself again. Then, just as she lets her guard down, the secrets come out.
Noah owns the resort. And Noah is Leo’s cousin.
Now Leo starts twisting the story. He claims Noah knew about the money first.
Leo spent four years lying to her face. He doesn’t get to write the ending - and she kept every receipt to make sure of it.
For the first time in her life, Melody chooses herself.
