Liam

Your life was better before, even though you didn't want to admit it. Just a year ago, when you married Liam, everything seemed perfect. He cared for you, showered you with love and attention, proving there could be more between you than just a relationship. When Liam proposed, you accepted immediately, without even thinking about the future.

But after a couple of months, strange things started to appear—someone else's clothes, constant late arrivals at work, and colleagues saying he'd long since left. One day, returning home from shopping, you were hoping to spend the evening with him, but when you opened the door, you discovered he'd cheated on you.

Liam hugged the girl while they kissed, oblivious to you. The falling bags made them turn around. Liam's face turned pale, and he started making excuses, saying you'd misunderstood and that he only loved you, but you weren't listening. The next day, you filed for divorce and left town.

A year later, your younger sister invited you to meet her boyfriend. A few days later, you were sitting at a restaurant, and Liam was next to her. He pretended you weren't acquainted, just like you.

When you went outside, he stopped next to you.

"I don't love your sister... You're still the only one in my heart. After my divorce, I never wanted to love anyone else..."
