The story
Charlotte Hale is a private chef hired by Cole Donovan for a one-million-dollar annual salary to manage his gastritis with her cooking. Her orderly life is upended the day Cole brings home Claire Sterling, who announces herself as his first love and mistakes Charlotte for a home-wrecking replacement installed during her time abroad. Claire refuses every explanation, insisting the First Love and the Stand-In cannot share a roof, and demands that Charlotte be sent away.
To keep the peace, Cole moves Charlotte into his downtown penthouse, doubling her pay and adding a three-month bonus for the inconvenience. Claire is triumphant, certain she has won, while Charlotte quietly banks the windfall and keeps cooking. Yet Claire's novel-inspired demands only escalate, and she soon turns up at Charlotte's door, convinced Cole has hidden her away in another house.
Opening
Then I saw her. The ghost. She pointed a trembling finger at me, her eyes welling with cinematic tears.
“I knew it!” she cried, her voice cracking with practiced despair. “It’s always true, what they write in the novels! The second I go abroad, you find a replacement and install her in your house!”
A replacement?
