The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Skyler had no way of finding her. In the end, all he could do was announce to the world that she'd died in childbirth.

Looking back, when Nora married Skyler, the wedding had been grand, but not a single member of the press was invited. Every detail was kept tightly under wraps; no one dared to leak a thing.

Nora herself preferred to keep a low profile. Aside from close friends and family, hardly anyone even knew she was Mrs. Williams. In the media, whenever Skyler's wife was mentioned, she was always referred to as Mrs. Williams-never by name. Over time, people simply forgot who she was.

Later, Nora made a name for herself in Novaris, but Skyler's family was all the way in Solmaris and had no idea what she'd achieved. After years spent searching with no trace of her, Skyler had quietly called off the search. He didn't want to push too hard and drive Nora further away.

He told himself that, with three children between them, Nora would eventually come home.

He never expected that the next time he'd hear from Nora, it would be because she wanted him to acknowledge their daughter as his own.

The revelation that Nora was Skyler's wife sent gossipmongers into a frenzy.

"Skyler's always parading his dead wife around to play the grieving widower, hasn't remarried for years—I thought he was devoted! Turns out he's just another heartless bastard who abandoned his wife and kid!"
