After the divorce, my husband demanded something from me. When I heard it, I laughed like a madwoman.

For a long time, I denied the truth—Sergey was cheating on me with his work assistant. The signs were clear: late nights, strange scents, secret calls. When I finally confronted him, he coldly admitted it and asked for a divorce.

Friends and family comforted me, but I still hoped he’d come back. He didn’t. Instead, I found support in Marina’s brother, Kirill. Spending time with him helped me heal, and eventually, we started a relationship.

Then, out of nowhere, Sergey called to ask for my wedding ring back—because he was marrying someone else and wanted to save money. I laughed, then threw the ring into a pond, freeing myself from the past.

Now, with Kirill, I feel loved and hopeful for the future. After pain and betrayal, I finally found true happiness.
