For their tenth anniversary, Lucy Sterling hand-paints three hundred place cards, then watches her billionaire husband raise his glass to Margot as the woman who keeps his world running.
Three hundred guests laugh when he remembers his wife only long enough to praise the party.
No one in the room knows that Lucy has drawn every room of every Sterling lodge for ten years, unpaid, beneath the credit line Sterling Design Team.
Brushed off as the woman choosing napkins while Margot built the company, she drives back to the dusty studio she closed a decade earlier.
Three months later, a magazine cover names Margot the mind behind the Sterling aesthetic and illustrates the claim with Lucy's own sketches, including her handwriting.
The toast leaves their marriage in crisis, and any second chance will have to be hard-won without turning that night into an affair.
