When I Left, You Begged Me Back

Prologue

Henry was planning a second wedding, and I wasn't the bride.

When he hired Chloe as a surrogate to carry his child, I swallowed my pride and endured it.

Now, he wanted to give her my place as his wife, too.

Only then did I realize that six years of marriage had just been my own foolish, one-sided delusion.

I stopped fighting. I stopped waiting. I applied for a permanent residency visa to Germany, packed up all my things, and prepared to vanish completely.

Just as I asked for a divorce, Chloe publicly announced her pregnancy.
