Chapter 1

"I've agreed to marry Austin."

In the dimly lit room, Suzanne Yates held her phone tightly. Her voice was soft as she shared the news with her best friend.

Her best friend froze, clearly stunned, but then she let out a breath of relief. "So, you're finally breaking up with Jenson? After all these years, that big star never once made your relationship public. He even let his fans tear you apart. I've been waiting for this day."

Suzanne's tone stayed calm. "You're right."

"But..." Her friend hesitated. "Why now? Does Jenson know about the

engagement? Have you set a date to get your marriage certificate?"

"It's already decided," Suzanne said quietly. "We're getting the marriage certificate tomorrow."

"Suzanne!"

At that moment, the door flew open, and Jenson Lambert barged in. His figure was tall and imposing. His face was strikingly handsome, one of the reasons he was worshiped by countless fans.

"Marriage certificate? Suzanne, when did I ever agree to marry you tomorrow?"

Suzanne ended the call, muttering a quick, "I'll call you back," before turning to face him.

She didn't explain and only asked, "Why are you here?"

"You sent me that text. You obviously wanted me to come." Jenson held up his phone, his voice sharp and condescending. "Three months, Suzanne. Isn't this enough drama?"
