No wonder her marriage was so happy.
Thinking about her own disastrous life, Liana let out a heavy sigh.
As they walked out of the boutique, Daisy asked, "You seem really down. What's going on? Tell me, maybe I can help you figure it out."
Liana sighed again. "It's my marriage prospects. Now that Winona has moved to the capital, I don't think I'll ever have a chance with Stefan again."
Daisy patted her arm soothingly. "Fate works in mysterious ways. You never know what might happen. Look at Orion and Renie—their marriage was a wreck, but Renie refused to sign the divorce papers. I had honestly given up and was ready to just raise my son on my own. But then, Renie had that terrible accident, and Orion and I finally got our happily ever after. Don't lose hope, Liana. Things always work out in the end. Who knows? Maybe Winona will have some unfortunate accident that forces her to leave Stefan. Then you'd be right there to step in."
Liana frowned. "But she's perfectly healthy. Why would she have an accident?"
What happened to Renie was a freak medical tragedy. The odds of that happening again were zero.
Suddenly, a dark, reckless idea bloomed in her mind—if fate wasn't going to help her, she would just have to help herself.

When Winona got home, she found Audrey playing with a bubble machine.
"Who got you the bubble machine, sweetie?" she asked.
"The boy," Audrey replied cheerfully.
Winona turned to the nanny. "Who gave it to her?"
"We were at the park today, and a little boy came over and gave it to her," the nanny explained.
The machine had run out of liquid, so Winona had ordered some new bubble solution on a delivery app.
The courier dropped it off, and Winona brought it inside. She grabbed the bubble machine, ready to refill it.
But as she twisted the cap open, her highly trained sense of smell caught a harsh, chemical odor. She immediately froze.
The nanny walked over. "Ma'am, need any help with that?"
