The shards of her heart

Yes, the presidential suite is incredible. However, the size of the room only accentuates her loneliness. She stripped off her dress alone. Her only company were two security guards who were outside the room.

Eleonor buried herself in the silk sheets and allowed the tears to roll down her face after she undressed. She felt an intense tightness in her chest. A difficult, painful feeling to describe.

She's so disappointed. She shouldn't have thought for a second that she could find a home in such a situation. How could anything good come out of all this, after all? Her father sold her out. Her mother hates her, despite her efforts to be loved. Josh betrayed her. And now her husband is a heartless man.

Emily remains the only person in the world who deserves her heart. That is why, despite all the sadness, Eleonor remains firm in her conviction that she had done the right thing. She's doomed to a lonely, loveless, and dangerous marriage, but at least her sister will be safe and happy. T
