His Heart longs for Another
Everyone," Evans said, his voice booming, "I want you to meet someone special. This is Bella, my partner."
The tray slipped from my hands, crashing to the floor. Glass shattered, champagne soaking my shoes. I grabbed the bar, my legs giving out, as Bella's gaze locked on mine. Her eyes were cold, hostile, like I was a stranger she despised. My sister, alive, glaring at me with a hate I didn't understand.
"Vivian!" Clara rushed over, grabbing my arm. "What's wrong?"
I couldn't speak, my throat locked. Madeline's laugh rang out, sharp and mocking. "Such grace," she called, stepping closer. "Someone clean this up."
Nate was at my side now, his voice urgent. "Vivian, talk to me. What's happening?"
I stared at Bella, descending with Evans, her smile sharp as a blade. "She is my sister…" I whispered, my voice breaking. "She is supposed to be dead."
Vivian Grants was once the beloved daughter of New York’s wealthiest family—until one tragic mistake shattered her world. When her sister drowned under her watch, her father’s scorn forced her into exile. For ten years, she lived like a shadow, too broken to return, too afraid to face her past.
Then she met Evans Newton, the man who became her refuge but never her love. No matter how hard she tried to reach him, his heart belonged to someone else. And on the night she thought she would finally earn his affection, he brought home the one person she had spent a decade mourning.
Her sister.
Bella Grants was alive.
And she wasn’t just back. She was here to reclaim everything.
As the lies unravel, Vivian realizes her past was never what it seemed. The people she trusted are hiding dark secrets, and the truth about Bella’s disappearance is more terrifying than she ever imagined. But in a world where love is a game, betrayal is currency, and the dead don’t stay buried, Vivian has only one choice.
