Dear Wife, You Are Mine!

Layla spoke softly yet resolutely, "It's time for us to end it." She couldn't endure the situation any longer. Their marriage, a mere facade, had been built to fulfill her late father's final request. Despite her once hopeful belief that love could conquer all, the return of Nate's ex shattered her faith.

Layla valued her dignity, so, despite the pain, she chose to let go rather than remain a substitute when he no longer showed affection. But why did Nate refuse to accept the inevitable?
