The Calm Before Revenge

Elara Hale

Summary

Description：
When she catches her fiancé Tristan cheating with her best friend Charlie—while three months pregnant—she doesn't cry or scream. Instead, she walks away calmly, hiding a decades-long grudge that's about to ignite. What seems like acceptance is actually the start of a twisted revenge plan targeting the "perfect" people who've haunted her life.
As she lures the charming James into her orbit and uncovers shocking family ties, every step pulls Tristan, Charlie, and even her own mother into a web of lies, betrayal, and irreversible consequences. This dark, suspenseful tale peels back the layers of envy, parental pressure, and the cost of letting resentment fester.
It's a gripping reminder: when we let others define our worth, everyone loses. Dive into a story where revenge burns bright, but redemption is nowhere in sight.
