Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 17 Emily, are you ready?

I thought I was over Arthur and Vivian, but seeing them together hit me hard. He never kissed me like that.

Then I noticed a guy with a rose and realized it was Valentine's Day. They were probably celebrating too.

Arthur never remembered special dates. I used to think he just didn't care about them. Looking back, I feel so foolish. And their choice of place to get intimate? Gross.

"Isn't this Mr. Miller? Out with your mistress on Valentine's Day?" Bella's shout drew everyone's attention. They finally pulled apart. Arthur turned and saw me, his wife, standing there. He looked shocked. "Emily?" Vivian said, stepping away from Arthur, clearly surprised to see me.

I knew why they were shocked. I used to dress plainly, trying to save money. But today, Bella gave me a complete makeover. Even I barely recognized myself. No wonder they were stunned.

"Mr. Miller, you have good taste. Your mistress looks pretty, with a standard fake face," Bella mocked. Vivian's face darkened, and Arthur didn't look much better.
