Thorn in My Palm

Abstract

At her meticulously prepared wedding, Cherry Thorne was met not with the happiness she had dreamed of, but with a devastating humiliation when Victoria Skye appeared, pregnant and demanding recognition. Ten years of devoted love was exchanged for Sullivan Sinclair publicly letting go of her hands and the mockery of the entire city. Leaving with resolve, the wound carved into her palm by the wedding ring became her indelible mark. Love died, hatred fueled her. Cherry wiped away her tears, transformed into a cold warrior, and forcefully entered the power center of Sinclair Corporation through a calculated deal. She was determined to reclaim her dignity and everything else on the battlefield, where she had once been dismissed. Facing her husband's coldness, subordinates' challenges, her rival's schemes, and the turbulent undercurrents within the family, Cherry navigated carefully with wisdom and resilience. However, as fragments of truth gradually came together, she discovered that the betrayal on her wedding day was far more than a simple emotional entanglement—behind it lurked a deeper conspiracy and calculation.
