A woman escapes her abusive dean husband and marries a man who prioritizes her well-being.
After seven years of marriage to a university dean who forced abortion pills to cover a student scandal, stole her research for his mistress Chloe, and mocked her with cheap anniversary meals, Sarah loses a second pregnancy when Chloe drugs her tea. She divorces him and flies to London, where her best friend's brother Liam Ashworth greets her wearing an apron. He welcomes her without demanding she be considerate, fries twenty spring rolls on their wedding night, swaps every white cup for blue, and undergoes a vasectomy after doctors say she cannot carry again, removing the word heir from any future pressure.
