Elena's world shatters in an instant when she discovers that the man she has devoted herself to for five years, Salvatore Bellomo, has kissed another woman on stage, and their love story is splashed across screens for all to see.

The Wife He Waited Ten Years ForChapter 1

Salvatore Bellomo had two front-row concert tickets tucked neatly into the breast pocket of his tailored suit. I thought he had planned a surprise for me. I was giddy with anticipation, counting down the days until the concert. But when the day finally came, I found out he had taken those tickets and gone on Family business instead.

With the help of a few connections and a ridiculous amount of money, I managed to get a ticket last minute. And that's when I saw it.

Onstage, under the dazzling lights and booming music, he was kissing another girl—deeply, passionately, like they were in the middle of their own love story. Their kiss was so emotional, so raw, that the camera crew caught it and broadcasted it on the giant screen for thousands of people to see.

After the concert, I stumbled across the girl's social media post.

Sharing a kiss with the love of my life at our idol's concert… Best birthday gift ever.

Wishing you 99! they said, wishing them a love that would last a hundred years.
