Shocked to her core, Aria sprang to her feet. She had never expected to see divorce papers—especially not handed to her by her aunt, without any prior conversation about ending her marriage. So why now? And why so early in the morning?Her brow furrowed as she stared at Olga.“What is the meaning of these documents, Auntie?” Aria demanded, her voice trembling slightly. “Why are you serving me divorce papers? Did I ever tell you I want to divorce Tyler?”Olga recoiled as if struck, blinking rapidly as if trying to regain her composure. Slowly, she rose to her feet and forced a look of shock onto her face.“What are you saying, Aria?” she asked, voice thick with feigned disbelief. “You mean to tell me you don’t want to end this marriage? You don’t want to leave a man who tried to—” Her words faltered as she glanced away, then snapped back. “Who tried to rape your own aunt?”Aria was as confused as hell. She scrambled to make sense of where all this was coming from—how it started, who ha

Aria’s anger simmered beneath the surface, growing with every word her aunt spoke. She wished she could speak her mind, truly tell her Aunt Olga everything that was brewing inside her. The resentment, the frustration, the disbelief. But the nature of their bond, the deep-rooted love she had for her aunt, held her back. She couldn’t bring herself to shatter the fragile peace they shared.Even when Olga had bluntly declared, “You will marry Brantley, whether you like it or not!”Aria had to fight the urge to lash out, to argue, but instead, she swallowed her pride and kept her voice steady.“No problem, Auntie.” Her voice was calm, but her words carried the weight of unspoken thoughts. “This whole situation needs to be sorted out, I agree. I know what you're hoping for, what you want from this marriage, but at the same time... I need you to understand that I’m not ready for marriage again. Especially not with Brantley.”Olga’s face twisted in confusion, her brow furrowing deeply. “Meani

Seeing how fiercely Aria defended her aunt, Melanie smiled faintly.She wasn’t surprised. Not in the least.After all, Aria had always loved her Aunt Olga more than she ever loved herself. Even while they were growing up, Aria never tolerated the slightest form of humiliation directed at her aunt. A careless word, a subtle insult—she would shut it down immediately. If it ever escalated to abuse or neglect, Aria wouldn’t hesitate to drag the offender to court without blinking. That was the kind of loyalty she had always shown.So no, Melanie wasn’t shocked by Aria’s defense.What unsettled her—what she could never support—was something far more disturbing.Olga wasn’t just standing by Aria. She was fully supporting her. Advising her. Encouraging her to marry the very man who had raped her repeatedly.A man who beat her whenever she refused to sleep with him.A man whose so-called love was nothing more than a sick obsession with her body.Melanie’s smile slowly faded as the weight of it

Shocked by Chloe’s sudden grip, Melanie rolled her eyes in irritation.She knew that Chloe is troublesome, thus, she had only come there to cause trouble. Well, Melanie didn't seem to be in the mood for a fight. So, she spoke softly. “And what is it with you?” she snapped, trying to pull her hand back. “Will you just leave my hand already?”Chloe’s face remained rigid the entire time, her expression cold and unyielding.“I heard you speaking with Aria earlier,” she said stiffly. “And I’m concerned. What exactly were you discussing with her?”Melanie was taken aback. Before she could even process the question, she shoved Chloe’s hand away from her and stepped back, her eyes flashing with warning.“Whatever I was discussing with Aria is none of your business,” Melanie snapped. “Can you at least mind your business—for once?”Chloe’s lips tightened.“I asked you a question, Melanie,” she said sharply. “And you’re supposed to answer me. Don’t respond like an illiterate. Or don’t tell me
