Ivy, a married woman and mother, grapples with her marriage partly due to her childhood experiences with her parents’ fractured relationship. Her father’s affair had deeply affected her mother, leading Ivy to fear that history might repeat itself in her own life.
Despite her reservations about marriage, Ivy met Jordan in a grocery store. Over time, their relationship grew, and they married. Despite Jordan being a good husband, Ivy remained wary due to her past experiences.
One morning, Jordan informed Ivy that he needed to take his mother to a medical appointment and would not be doing the usual school drop-off for their daughter, Mia. When Mia mentioned that Jordan always took off his wedding ring and hid it behind the wardrobe before going to “Linda,” Ivy’s anxiety spiked.
Ivy discovered Jordan’s ring in a box behind the wardrobe and became convinced that Jordan was having an affair with someone named Linda. She followed Jordan the next day and saw him entering a house where a young woman with long hair opened the door, intensifying her fears.
The following day, Ivy followed Jordan again and found him at the house with Linda. Jordan revealed that the house was a new property he had inherited and was working on, with Linda being an interior designer involved in the project. Ivy learned that Linda had met Mia and was working on decorating the house for the family.
Jordan explained that he had removed his ring because it had gotten covered in paint during renovations. Ivy admitted to taking the ring and expressed her fears about Jordan’s fidelity. Jordan reassured her that he was committed to their marriage.
The couple continued working on the house together, which helped them reconnect and strengthen their relationship.
