After a seventeen‑hour flight, Nadia only wanted to spend her birthday with her husband and daughter.
Yet what greeted her was no warm celebration: her husband was spending the night with his mistress, while her daughter had prepared a birthday portrait for that very woman. On the card were the words, “Will you be my mom?”
Throughout their seven‑year marriage, Nadia had yielded and endured time and again. She gave up her love, career, and identity for Rodger.
