While I Waited, He Built Another Family — A woman feigns madness to survive her husband and best friend's conspiracy while hunting her father's hidden evidence.

Chloe's grief over her father's suspicious car crash becomes a weapon when husband Liam and best friend Mia declare her insane and commit her to a psychiatric ward. For two years hallucinogens cloud her mind until Liam stages a loving homecoming. One night she discovers them together with a toddler son conceived during her captivity. Rather than confront them, Chloe pretends the drugs still control her. Covert aid from Noah, a psychiatrist her father funded before his death, lets her quit the medication and search the house for the proof her father concealed.
