Ninety-Nine Wishes, One Broken Marriage
Brave VeteranBetrayalDivorceGolden BoyTragedyDoctorRegret
When Jeremy Cooper marries Camilla Sloan, he's certain they will live happily ever after. Her family, however, never stops showing their contempt for the union—and Camilla herself promises her sick childhood friend, Zachary Larson, that she will fulfill 99 wishes for him.
Jeremy witnesses the extreme lengths Camilla is willing to go to just to accomplish that.
She walks out of an important meeting because Zachary tells her he feels like having some roasted sweet potatoes.
In the middle of the night, when the mood is just right between Jeremy and Camilla, she will jump out of bed and rush to the hospital simply because Zachary says the thunderstorm is scaring him.
When Jeremy asks whether Camilla realizes she's crossing the line a bit, she curtly replies, "Don't worry about it. I know my boundaries."
Jeremy slowly grows disillusioned. The two start giving each other the cold shoulder, and they grow distant from each other.
But even so, Camilla refuses to back down.
One day, under the guise of being inebriated, she arrives on Jeremy's doorstep, but a gorgeous woman in a bathrobe opens the door instead.
At last, she panics.
