Only Close When I’m About to Lose YouUpdated at Nov 13, 2024, 21:03
Leah Evans, the number one socialite in Los Angeles, was renowned for her grace, elegance, and impeccable manners. From a young age, she showed remarkable talent—reading by three, composing poetry by five, and mastering the arts. Everyone who met her admired her refinement.
Raised with the traditional belief of "obeying her father, husband, and later her son," Leah accepted her father’s arrangement to marry a stranger in exchange for a two-billion-dollar contract. Even when her dowry went entirely to her brother, she quietly complied.
Everything changed when she received a medical report: "Terminal cancer, six months left to live."
From that moment, Leah transformed. The gentle, refined woman became bold and outspoken, refusing to tolerate any injustice. She no longer let grievances fester, confronting them head-on, sometimes even with force. The image of the quiet, aristocratic lady was shattered.
To Frederick Carter, Leah had always seemed lifeless, like an obedient puppet. He thought she was emotionless—until the day she handed him divorce papers with a vibrant, radiant smile. Only then did he realize how captivating she truly was.
It wasn’t until she was gone that Frederick understood her importance. His only mission became bringing Leah back into his life.
