Introduction

"Akiri perkahwinan kita dengan tandatanganmu, dan serahkan gelaran Puan Wellington kepada yang benar-benar memiliki hatimu."

Perkahwinan tiga tahun Evelyn Taylor dengan Edward Wellington penuh dengan pengabaian yang jelas. Dia sedar bahawa segala usahanya sia-sia; kasih sayangnya hanya untuk orang lain. Dengan penuh keikhlasan, Evelyn menandatangani surat cerai dan mengambil kembali kehidupannya, melangkah semula ke dunia sebagai dirinya yang sebenar—satu-satunya pewaris kekayaan besar, seorang doktor yang dihormati, seorang penggodam elit, dan seorang pakar pedang.

Edward terkejut dengan lapisan-lapisan keperibadian Evelyn yang pelbagai. Dia tidak pernah menyangka bahawa wanita yang dilepaskannya memiliki bakat yang begitu memukau.

"Saya telah membuat kesilapan. Adakah peluang untuk kita bermula semula?" Edward merayu, menggenggam tangannya dengan rendah hati yang baru ditemui.

Senyuman Evelyn penuh dengan sindiran ketika dia menjawab, "Senarai penari saya penuh dengan peminat yang luar biasa. Apa sebab saya perlu kembali ke masa lalu dengan bekas suami?"

Chapter 1

Ruang tamu sunyi sepi.

Secawan kopi melayang ke arah Edward Wellington, membasahinya. Kalau dia tak sempat tunduk, mungkin dah pecah dah dahi dia.

"Kau ni memang tak guna, selalu nak lawan cakap aku, kan?" Datuk Edward, Byron Wellington, menghentak meja dengan marah.

"Aku dah cakap berjuta kali jangan dekat dengan keluarga Adams, tapi kau bawa balik orang yang mencurigakan sebelum bercerai pun. Apa orang akan fikir tentang Lily? Apa kata keluarga Wellington?"

Edward berdiri di situ, diam tapi tegas.

"Tuan Wellington, tolong bertenang," pelayan tua, risau tentang kesihatan tuannya, cepat-cepat menuang secawan kopi lagi. Tapi Patrick Wellington menyambutnya dan menyerahkannya kepada Byron dengan hormat.

"Ayah, saya tahu Edward buat silap, tapi kita tak boleh kawal perasaan. Edward dan Lily dah kahwin tiga tahun. Kalau dia tak jatuh cinta dengan Lily sampai sekarang, itu bermaksud mereka tak sesuai."

Patrick sepatutnya diam. Melihat wajahnya hanya membuat Byron lebih marah.

Byron mengambil tongkatnya dan memukul Patrick. "Ini semua pengaruh buruk kau. Aku tak pernah suka isteri kau, dan sekarang Edward nak lepaskan menantu yang aku luluskan." Dia nak pukul lagi tapi tiba-tiba rasa pening dan susah nak bernafas. Edward dan Patrick cepat-cepat menyokong dan menepuk belakangnya.

"Memang sedih. Kamu berdua sama saja, lepaskan wanita yang hebat dan pilih yang ada agenda tersembunyi."

Selepas bernafas lega, Byron menolak tangan Edward dengan marah dan akhirnya mengambil kopi itu. "Cakap jujur dengan aku, macam mana kau boleh tandatangan perjanjian cerai dulu? Aku nak tahu berapa banyak Lily menderita dengan kau."

Bibir Edward bergerak-gerak sambil dia melihat air yang menitis dari rambutnya, mengingatkan kesan air mata pada perjanjian itu. Dia tenggelam dalam fikirannya.

Lily Brown berdiri di depan Edward, matanya penuh dengan kesakitan, memaksa senyuman pahit. "Apa yang kau cakap tadi?"

Edward menjawab dengan sinis, "Aku tak ada masa nak berdebat dengan kau. Aku dah tandatangan kertas cerai."

Lily menggigit bibirnya, cuba bercakap sambil menangis. "Edward, kau mesti bergurau. Cerai adalah sesuatu yang kita patut bincang bersama. Macam mana dengan Datuk..."

Edward semakin tak sabar. "Kau tahu macam mana perkahwinan kita terjadi. Aku dah cukup dengan perkahwinan tanpa cinta ini. Datuk pun tak boleh ubah fikiran aku hari ini."

"Tak ada perasaan? Edward, kau tak nampak ke yang aku sayangkan kau? Kita dah kahwin tiga tahun, bukan tiga hari atau tiga jam. Kau tak nampak langsung ke?" Lily hampir putus asa, terhuyung-hayang ke meja tapi degil mengangkat kepala, berharap jawapan dari Edward.

Tapi ekspresinya tetap sama, sejuk dan keras seperti patung. "Kau selalu tahu kalau bukan kerana campur tangan Datuk, aku tak akan kahwin dengan kau. Kahwin dengan kau adalah jalan terakhir. Aku ada seseorang yang aku cintai, dan dia akan balik tak lama lagi."

Bila Edward sebut cinta pertamanya, Nicole Adams, nadanya lembut, "Aku sepatutnya bersama Nicole sudah lama. Sekarang, tak ada apa yang boleh halang kami."

Lily tidak dapat menahan air matanya lagi dan memandang Edward dengan penuh kesedihan. "Jadi, aku cuma halangan yang perlu dibuang?"

Edward mengeluh, "Perkahwinan kita adalah kesilapan dari awal. Mengakhirinya sekarang adalah yang terbaik untuk kita berdua."

Kedua-duanya tidak berkata apa-apa lagi, suasana menjadi tegang, hanya terdengar bunyi air mata Lily jatuh ke atas meja.

Dia segera mengelap air matanya, cuba menahan sisa-sisa maruahnya.

Pada saat itu, telefon Edward berdering, memecahkan suasana berat itu. Melihat nama pemanggil, ekspresinya melembut, dan dia menjawab.

"Nicole, bukankah sepatutnya kau berada di dalam pesawat ke Mythorica? Ada apa-apa yang berlaku?"

"Tidak, Edward, cuba teka di mana aku sekarang?" Suara manja Nicole kedengaran melalui telefon.

"Aku tak dapat teka. Bila kau akan balik? Pukul berapa penerbangan kau mendarat supaya aku boleh jemput kau?"

"Aku sudah berada di Lapangan Terbang Mugden."

"Apa?" Edward memeriksa jam tangannya. "Kalau aku ingat dengan betul, kau sepatutnya tiba pukul tujuh malam ini."

Nicole menjawab, "Tapi bagaimana ia boleh menjadi kejutan jika kau tahu?"

"Kau ni nakal. Tunggu di situ, aku akan sampai sekejap lagi." Edward tersenyum dengan penuh kasih, tanpa memandang isterinya, Lily, dan hilang dari pandangannya.

Lily tidak dapat menahan lagi, rebah di atas sofa di ruang belajar dengan senyuman pahit. Ia sudah berakhir, perkahwinan tiga tahunnya yang tiada harapan.

Tetapi dia tidak rela. Dia telah mencintai Edward selama lebih tiga tahun, bahkan sebelum mereka berkahwin, dia sudah menyukai Edward selama sepuluh tahun.

Apa yang boleh dia lakukan? Jika dia tidak melihat sikap lembut Edward terhadap Nicole sebentar tadi, mungkin dia akan terus menipu dirinya sendiri, berfikir bahawa suatu hari nanti dia boleh mencairkan hati beku Edward dengan cintanya. Tetapi sekarang...

Lily membuat keputusan, menahan kesakitan yang menyekat di hatinya. Kini, mereka hanya boleh mengakhirinya di sini.

Akhirnya, dia menandatangani perjanjian cerai dengan tegas.

Dia berfikir kepada dirinya sendiri, 'Itu saja, Lily, tinggalkan perkahwinan ini dengan sisa-sisa maruah.'

Apabila malam tiba, Lily dengan teliti memeriksa susunan meja makan seperti biasa, mengabaikan suasana riang di luar pintu.

Edward mengangkat seorang wanita anggun dalam pelukannya, memutarnya tiga kali di tengah-tengah jeritannya, menarik perhatian semua orang.

"Edward, apa yang kau buat? Letakkan aku, malu dengan ramai orang yang melihat. Apa kata Lily salah faham..." Nicole menekan wajahnya ke dada Edward, memandangnya dengan malu-malu.

"Jangan risau tentang dia," Edward tersenyum, tetapi ada tanda-tanda tidak senang dalam matanya, "Aku sudah jelaskan dengan sangat jelas kepadanya; jika dia ada akal, dia takkan mengganggu kita."

Senyuman Nicole semakin triumf, matanya menyapu provokatif ke arah Lily.

Dari saat dia masuk, dia telah melihat figura kesepian Lily. Dia berfikir, 'Apa guna Lily berkahwin dengan Edward? Pada akhirnya, hati Edward tetap bersama aku.'

Kedua-duanya berjalan masuk ke ruang makan, menarik perhatian semua orang. Sebaik sahaja mereka duduk, butler yang biasanya tenang tergesa-gesa datang, berbisik kepada Edward, "Puan Wellington telah lari dari rumah!"
