Chapter 1

"Diana, take Cecilia's place. Go to prison."

When Damian said those words, he couldn't even look me in the eye.

Three years of marriage, and he'd worn me down from a proud heiress to the joke of our social circle.

He bought Cecilia houses. Spent nights with her. Shielded her from everything. And yet he wanted me to take her place behind bars.

I agreed.

After I signed the divorce papers, I turned around and dialed 911. "I'd like to report a hit-and-run. Cecilia Martin fled the scene."

He caught up with me at the airport just as the security gate was slowly closing.

"Diana! You lied to me!"

I didn't look back.

Later, the truth came out.

I heard he searched the world for me like a madman. I heard he finally saw that woman's true colors. I heard he collapsed from kneeling outside my shop.

I never went out.

Not until someone pushed the door open.

The man who once made me take the fall for Cecilia now knelt before me on broken porcelain, holding up a diamond ring.

"Diana, can we remarry?"
