Still you, still me still falling

Three years ago, Sheila Jensen shattered Edmond Halley with a carefully chosen lie. Claiming their love had meant nothing, she walked away from the powerful heir and buried herself in demanding electronics research, convinced that distance was the only way to protect them both. When fate brings her home, one glance at Edmond proves that neither time nor bitterness has erased what they shared.\n\nEdmond insists he despises the woman who humiliated him, yet his control fractures whenever another man stands beside her. Sheila builds new walls, hides behind work, and pretends she has moved on, but every confrontation exposes the feelings still burning beneath their anger. As her mentor's struggling research institute searches for funding and the secret behind their breakup threatens to surface, Sheila must decide whether silence is still protecting Edmond—or destroying their last chance.\n\nCaught between wounded pride, buried sacrifice, and a love neither learned to forget, Sheila and Edmond are forced to confront the truth: some hearts can be separated, but never truly untangled.
