For seven years, Claire was more than just Damien's overlooked assistant—she was his secret wife, living in the shadows. He never even allowed their own daughter to call him "Dad," his heart forever belonging to his first love. When a shattered Claire decides to leave, their daughter proposes three final tests. He fails each one catastrophically: choosing to save his first love over Claire from a falling chandelier, stealing their daughter's achievement to please his first love's child. The final straw comes when his negligence nearly costs their daughter her life. Claire leaves decisively. Only then does Damien discover her silent sacrifices, but it is too late. His desperate pleas are met with cold rejection. Can a life spent in atonement ever mend the wounds he caused?
