A week ago, Y/N was supposed to be on her honeymoon. Instead, she was left standing at the altar after her fiancé confessed he had always been in love with his childhood best friend. Heartbroken and humiliated, Y/N spends a week hiding from the world until her best friend convinces her to attend the grand opening of London’s newest luxury nightclub. She expects one ordinary night. He wasn’t expecting to meet anyone at all. Aleksandr Jian Volkov, the 33-year-old Russian-Chinese owner of the club, has spent his entire life waiting for the right woman. While others chased temporary relationships, he chose to wait for the person he would one day call his wife. The moment he sees the quiet woman sitting alone at the bar, carrying a heartbreak no smile can hide, one impossible thought crosses his mind. “I think… that’s my future wife.” Not because he believes she belongs to him. But because, for the first time in his life, his heart recognizes someone before his mind can explain why. As Y/N slowly rebuilds her life, an unexpected friendship begins to grow between two strangers who couldn’t have met at more different moments in their lives. One is learning how to love again. The other has spent his whole life waiting for someone to love. Sometimes the right person arrives only after the wrong one walks away.
