Veronica went from college boyfriend-girlfriend to husband and wife with Jonathan Rollings. They got married and on Jonathan’s request, kept their marriage a secret. He even gave her a silver band saying one day he would change it to a diamond ring. 
Two years after their marriage, Jonathan met Imelda who promised to help him build his business for a favor. 
Fulfilling this favor, seven years have passed by. 
Today, she’s still legally married to Jonathan Rollings, now one of the city's most powerful men, yet she serves wine at his parties in a server's uniform while Imelda openly calls him her fiance. Not only this, to the world, her husband is dead. 
Even her daughter cannot call her father Jonathan and must call him “Mr. Rollings”, while Imelda’s son calls him “dad” in public. 
She has endured it all in silence, hoping one day he will accept them in public. 
But after seven years of silence, she gives up. 
Behind Veronica’s back, something else was quietly unraveling. Marriage records changed, money she never received, correspondence she never heard of. 
Imelda didn’t want to make Jonathan forget Veronica, she was erasing her from his life.
But when she saw not only her health but her daughter’s life was also affected, she decided to give up and stop sacrificing anymore. 
Now, with a countdown running, Veronica decides to give Jonathan the last chance to choose her or Imelda, and finally she takes the decision. 
Some could lose everything they thought they were protecting. Some will find they never left them. And one woman, who was a secret for seven years, will become a truth no one can deny.
Veronica survived being erased. The only question is, whether Jonathan can see through Imelda’s schemes and win his love, Veronica, back or not.

I returned home and saw Veronica was resting on the sofa.


"Nicky, you remember we promised to rebuild our marriage after all that we endured?"


"How about we spend the evening together?"


She agreed immediately, but her stiff posture made me uneasy.


I wondered if she was feeling frightened because of the trauma or doesn't feel the same about me anymore.


It had been a month since I held her in my arms, but since she came back, she has been keeping her distance and I didn't want to pressure her as well.


I still took my chance and leaned over, but she pulled herself away.


I questioned her as I was about to kiss her, and she didn't get up teasing me, rather avoiding me.


"I need time to recover and adjust so–"


"I won't come near you unless you tell so,"


I didn't react but I was deeply hurt by her reaction.
