Driven by teenage humiliation, she forged a wildly successful career in the cutthroat world of London finance, armouring herself with ambition, expensive suits, and a ruthless efficiency that extended to her personal life – brief, transactional encounters offering physical release but zero connection. But when a shocking confession from her boss ignites a dangerous game, and the hollowness of her solitary success becomes undeniable, Chloe is forced to question the foundations of the life she fought so hard to build.
