The sun dappled through the canopy of ancient oaks, casting intricate shadows on the polished floorboards of Delwin's childhood home. It was a place of opulence and privilege, a gilded cage where he'd grown up, sheltered from the harsh realities of the world.

The realization of her true intentions, a calculated pursuit of his wealth, was a bitter pill to swallow. Yet, even then, he couldn't bring himself to let go.
