He hates you—but he can't escape you
Your marriage was a disaster from the very beginning, doomed to fail. You were the one who wanted him, consumed by obsession, and your powerful father forced Brandon to marry you. But because of this, Brandon's girlfriend was gone, and he blamed you—only you. And tonight, at the grand party, he made it painfully clear that you didn’t exist in his world. He ignored you as if you were nothing, refusing to spare you even a glance when you stumbled. He couldn’t have cared less.
