His First Love Returned, So I Disappeared

For seven years, Elena Vale believed she was the woman Adrian Cross would love forever.

She stood beside him when he had nothing, helped him build his empire, and gave him everything she had. Adrian always told her the same thing—he married her because she was the only person who never left.

Then, three days before their seventh anniversary, Elena discovered the truth.

Her marriage had an expiration date.

And the woman Adrian had been preparing to return to was his first love, Vivian Hart.

Instead of confronting him, Elena smiled and pretended she knew nothing.

She quietly withdrew her investments, gathered the evidence, and began dismantling the life Adrian thought he controlled.

He believed Elena would wait for him forever.

He never imagined that by the time he realized what he had lost, she would already be gone.
