Summary
Description: For three years, Chloe Bennett has been trapped as the heroine of a toxic angst romance, forced to endure her husband's cruelty while an unseen System measures her pain. Reach one hundred Suffering Points, and she can finally return to the real world. Then Chloe discovers the rules never said she had to be the one who suffered. When Adrian Sterling excuses his precious childhood friend Vanessa Hayes for destroying Chloe's family heirloom, Chloe stops playing the forgiving wife. Every double standard becomes a weapon. Every insult becomes a chance to turn Adrian's own logic against him. And every flicker of regret on his face pushes Chloe closer to freedom. But Adrian refuses to follow the script quietly. The more Chloe pulls away, the harder he fights to win her back—even as he keeps rushing to Vanessa's side. With her sharp-tongued friend Julian Carter helping her raise the stakes, Chloe launches a ruthless counterattack built on jealousy, public humiliation, and Adrian's growing fear that he has already lost her. Chloe knows his pain is her ticket home. The danger is that Adrian's obsession may prove harder to escape than his neglect—and the System will not release her until the score reaches one hundred. Author Biography: Casey Chen creates modern love stories about finding yourself while finding love, with humor and heart.
