I never told my fiancé that I owned the island where he tried to humiliate me. To him, I was just a servant—someone he could order around while pretending to be single and openly flirting with tourists. I thought I had already seen his true colors, but he was far more cruel than I ever imagined. When I asked him to watch my five-year-old son, he agreed with a smile. When I came back, I found him forcing my child’s head under the water. “We’re just playing,” he sneered as my son choked and struggled for air. I rushed my boy to the hospital and left him with only one sentence: “Your nightmare is about to begin.”
