Love Fades Without a Trace

Elena Frost has been by Aaron Reed's side for a decade. He goes from being a broke freshman who almost drops out of university to the proud CEO of Reed Corporation.

Everyone in Halston City knows Aaron loves Elena more than life itself. At one point, even Elena believed this.

Then, in the third year of her and Aaron's marriage, she discovers his mistress. He even has a one-year-old child with her.

Since Aaron doesn't appreciate the sacrifice Elena has made to be with him, she decides to take it all back.

…

Aaron sees Mia Wynn as a distraction and a form of entertainmen and heir child is an accident. Elena is the only person he truly treasures.

"There's no special reason for venturing into the amusement business, either. My wife likes Ferris wheels, so I want to build her one that's unlike any other in the world.

"Acquiring a gaming company has to do with my wife, too. I want to develop a game that my wife likes and exclusively for female players. Even in virtual reality, I don't want any men to get close to my wife."

He mentioned his wife with every sentence. His deep affection for her made countless people stop to watch the interview.

"Mr. Reed treats his wife so well. I can't even imagine how happy she must be, falling asleep and waking up with such a man by her side," one of them murmured.

"Ha! Well, I can imagine it," another added. "Not only would I want to fall asleep and wake up in his arms, but I'd also want him to accompany me as I
