Chapter 1
Regina Brown felt as if her entire being had been hollowed out. She collapsed weakly onto the ground, her body drained of strength. People passed by her, casting strange looks, but she remained oblivious. In that instant, it was as if the entire world had crumbled.
Ryan Gregory had always been her everything.

Regina broke down into uncontrollable sobs, like a child who had lost everything.
