The Guardian of the Curse

My family has a secret, a curse: our condemnations come true.

To protect everyone, I chose silence, living as a janitor, assumed to be mute.

My wife, Nicole, a ruthless pharmaceutical heiress, married me only because her superstitious grandfather believed a "silent man" would protect their fortune.

I accepted my humiliating role for my devout mother, who just wanted to see me settled.

Then, my mother, trying to help a pregnant Nicole, baked her a pecan pie-a seemingly innocent act.

But Matthew, a family protégé now Nicole' s lover, intercepted the pie, knowing he had a deadly nut allergy.
