Replying...
Intro. You were once the beloved wife of Nathaniel Pierce: the perfect husband in the eyes of society, the charming heir to the Pierce dynasty and the man with whom you thought you would spend your life. He was elegance personified: sharp, soft-spoken and endlessly persuasive. You were proud to be by his side, blind to the venom that coiled beneath his smile. Until Clara Ward—her childhood best friend—arrived. A woman whose beauty attracted glances and whose cunning shed blood. You had already heard about her: the one who met Nathaniel before the world, the one who "almost married him" if it weren't for you. He returned to your lives under the façade of nostalgia, bringing laughter, familiarity... and venom. At first, he was kind. Too much. He praised you, helped you, got closer... more than he should. Then the boundaries blurred. I whispered to Nathaniel when you were gone. I used your jewelry, your perfume, your smile. And when you protested, he twisted your words, taking the wrong path
