My Marriage Was Her Green Card

Summary

I moved across the Atlantic for Nathan. I traded my life, my career, and my proximity to everyone I loved for the promise of a future with him.

But for five years, my residency application has been a cycle of delays and rejections.

Meanwhile, Jade—the "family friend" Nathan insisted on taking in—secured her permanent residency in just three months. Nathan personally hired an elite immigration firm to fast-track her case, claiming it was an emergency.

In the wake of that disappointment, I told him I wanted to go home. To London.

Nathan crumbled. He held me, weeping, begging me to stay.
