Seven Blanks, Then His Enemy

Serena loved James for seven years, but he always swapped her name cards for blanks at the annual blind draw. Before the eighth gala, she heard him plan to marry her next year after calming Bella. Heartbroken, she drew Lucian Blackwood, James’s enemy, and married him instead. James went bankrupt, and Bella was exposed. Years later, James and Bella died in a warehouse fight, while Serena and Lucian lived happily with their daughter.
