She woke up to find a divorce certificate plastered on her bedroom wall and a stranger wearing her husband's heirloom. He called her a traitor. The hospital said a blood clot stole her memories — and that she had months to live unless she let surgeons cut her open. She remembered two things clearly: the boy who saved her after the earthquake, and the promise that he would always protect her. They buried her, then they saved her. The surgery should have been the ending — instead it was the beginning. She returns scarred, half-paralyzed, and legally rich, while the man she loved is engaged to the nurse who held his parents when they died. Accidents, sabotage, whispered phone calls, and a burned-in brand on her back hint that her life has been a staged lie. The truth lives in the dark: who ordered the ambulance to fail, who pushed the nurse down the escalator, and why was a piece of her taken before she even learned what fear meant? She has six months not to die but to dismantle the lie. Memory by memory, scar by scar, she will pull the threads that made a family into a battlefield. This is a story about a woman who lost her past and used the future to get even.
