‘When one door closes, another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us’ - Alexander Graham Bell Maisie Fleming thought her life is over. Not long after she finds out about her infertility, she is serve divorce paper. Ever since then, her insecurity grows and her confidence drops. Living feels like a burden for her as she carries on with her daily life like a robot. One day, opportunity hits her in a way she never expects - a car accident so painful yet welcoming and when she wakes up, she is now married to Edmund Bainbridge - a complete stranger. As she tries to figure out how that happens and ways to annul the marriage, she finds herself falling for the charm in being Edmund's wife. It is him who makes her see her true worth and how the people surrounding her love her all the same despite being infertile. --- "Is it true?" I stood frozen, unable to respond. My eyes were too busy locking in on the little boy's head resting on Alistair's shoulder. Is that his son? A sharp tug ripped my heart into pieces. A child that I failed to give - someone who will continue carrying his name, blood and lineage. "You don't have to go this far and force yourself to marry him," Alistair's obvious pleas shake my entire being. I wanted to comfort him saying there has been no one but him in my life. I wanted to be in his embrace! Instead, another man's arm wrapped around my shoulder and pulled closer. "Alistair, fancy seeing you here. I see you have met my wife." "WIFE?" Alistair's words and my surprised voice synced at the question. My head turned at the man who I have spent the previous night at. --- "Alistair is my nephew," he answered when I asked of their relationship. "Your nephew?!! On whose side?" I racked my brain trying to figure whether I have seen Edmund before and going through all the relatives I have met. "Why? He's not your ex-boyfriend is he?" Edmund smirked but his smile dropped as soon as I opened my mouth. "No. But he's my ex-husband," I whispered.
