Sakura Misses Her Chance

"People always told me life was about second chances, but no one ever said they’d come in the form of a wedding gone wrong. I promised my father I’d be strong, but when my best friend betrayed me and my fiancé humiliated me on what was supposed to be the happiest day of my life, I broke. I died… and woke up at the very moment everything fell apart. This time, I won’t let them ruin me. When Jaewon, my cheating fiancé, tried to drag me back into his web of lies, I made a choice that shocked everyone: I proposed to his older brother, Heeseung. The cold, enigmatic CEO who had always seemed untouchable, and the man I’d underestimated for far too long. Marrying Heeseung wasn’t just a spur-of-the-moment decision. It was my way of rewriting my destiny and taking control of a life that had spiraled out of my hands. What I didn’t expect was the way he looked at me—as if I was more than just a pawn in this game of revenge and redemption. As if I mattered. Now, I’m navigating a world of power, betrayal, and unspoken feelings. But one thing is clear: I’m no longer the Yuna who was crushed under the weight of heartbreak and deceit. I’m stronger, smarter, and ready to fight for the life I deserve. And if anyone—especially Jaewon—thinks they can stop me, they’re about to learn just how wrong they are. This is my second chance, and this time, I’ll make every move count."

But as she navigates the treacherous world of court intrigue, one question lingers— Was Cairon truly her greatest enemy? Or had she been blind to an even greater threat? Time is running out. The villain has been given one last chance. And this time, she refuses to lose.
