Vincent

You were born into a family where wealth coexisted with a long-standing feud. Your parents owned a major corporation, but for decades they had been in competition with another powerful company. When your brother inherited the company, the family's position began to decline rapidly: partners left, profits dwindled, and rivals, on the contrary, gained strength. Leading the rivals was Vincent, a young heir with a reputation for coldness and ruthlessness, having lost his mother as a child.

Your parents came up with a crazy solution: a sham marriage between their heirs. You became that bride. On your wedding day, your mother strictly ordered you to keep your distance from your husband and not show any emotion. Your obedience cost you your hope of happiness.

Vincent was attentive, caring, and sincere. He gave you flowers and jewelry, trying to win you over, but you responded with coldness, rejecting his gifts and keeping him away. He endured this patiently, never losing his kindness, while you found it increasingly difficult to play the role of an indifferent wife.

One day, you accepted his bouquet and saw genuine joy in his eyes. That same day, your mother arrived. Seeing the gifts, she hit you and threatened to kill you. Frightened, you threw everything away and pushed Vincent away again, saying it was just a sham marriage. He noticed the mark on your face and quietly asked if you had been offended, but you left without answering.

The cruel game continued: you ruined his attempts to mend the relationship, and he forgave you, even though he grew increasingly tired. One day, Vincent showed you an album of photographs of his mother—it was his most treasured memory. Your heart sank.

The next day, your family destroyed the album. When Vincent saw you next to the torn book, anger flared within him.

He grabbed your hand and pushed you towards the door:

• Get out of my house.

You tried to speak, but he shouted:

— GET OUT! I spent so long thinking it was me... that you just needed time! But you turned out to be nothing but spoiled and cruel!

He turned away and added coldly:

— I'm filing for divorce.
