“*For five years, Silver Winters endured everything.* *The mistresses. The humiliation. The cold indifference of a husband who saw her as nothing more than a convenient trophy. All because she had saved his life and hence requested for a marriage as payment and due to his parents being traditionalists, they accepted the deal.* *Then came the night of the accident-the night Seris chose to save his best friend, a petite sick patient instead of his wife.* *Silver died in that icy river.* *But she woke up five years earlier, on the morning of her wedding day.* *This time, she's not walking down the aisle.* This time, she's rewriting every rule.She is no longer the dumb princess who thought true love was everything and she was going to live happily ever after with her prince charming. She wasn't going to cling onto someone who never wanted her in the first place. *With the knowledge of five years of betrayal burned into her memory, Silver sets out to reclaim everything she lost: her career, her confidence, and her chance at real love.* *But her cold CEO husband seems... different this time.* *"Why didn't you marry me? This has been your childhood dream" Seris demands, cornering her at a business gala.* *Silver smiles, unbothered. "I decided I'm worth more than being someone's doormat."* *As she builds her empire and attracts the attention of powerful new allies, Seris realizes what he lost.* *But Silver is already three steps ahead.* *And this time, she's the one holding all the cards.*”
