Zara’s world shatters when she discovers her husband, Eric, has been secretly sending money to her best friend, Claire. The betrayal runs deeper than she imagined. Instead of breaking, Zara plots revenge.
Claire and Zara had been inseparable since college. Claire’s marriage was in ruins, and she constantly complained. Zara reassured her, unaware Claire had already found a solution—Eric.
One evening, while using Eric’s laptop, a notification popped up: $800 transfer to Claire. Stunned, Zara checked their joint account. Multiple transactions. Her stomach dropped. Then she found the texts.
Claire: “You treat me better than Jake. I feel safe with you.” Eric: “I’ll always take care of you. You deserve to be happy.” Claire: “I wish I was your wife instead.” Eric: “I can’t stop thinking about last night.”
Zara’s heartbreak turned to rage. She orchestrated a grand public humiliation—an orchestra, a choir singing about betrayal, cheerleaders holding up screenshots of their texts. The entire neighborhood watched as Claire and Eric’s secrets unraveled. Claire begged Jake for forgiveness. Eric pleaded with Zara.
“Enjoy your new life, Eric. I’ve already filed for divorce. Hope Claire was worth it.”
Later, Claire appeared at Zara’s doorstep, pleading. “I was lonely. I never meant to hurt you.”
Zara scoffed. “You knew exactly what you were doing.”
Tears streamed down Claire’s face. “I don’t want to lose you.”
Zara’s voice was cold. “You lost me when you chose to be Eric’s mistress over my friend.”
Claire walked away, broken. Zara shut the door, knowing their friendship was over—forever.
