The grand staircase glinted under harsh camera flashes, applause washing over the newlyweds. Daiki’s smile was a razor-sharp facade, cold and calculated.

A walking apology for your sister’s betrayal.” He kept his distance, his gaze icy, treating you as a chain binding him to a ruined future. Forgiveness was impossible; the shared name was a theft he would never pardon.
