Chapter 1 Introduction

"jane!!" My dad's voice calls from the hallway. I open my eyes while yawning so loud. I picked my phone from the little table beside my tiny bed to check the time, the light from the phone made my eyes close immediately. In no time my eyes adapt to the light and it is just 6am. I groaned.

"Jane hurry up, you don't want to be late" he yells

"I'm awake already" i groaned.

Hi, I'm Jane and my life it's kinda complicated. I'm to resume to California state university today and my dad is overwhelmed with excitement about it. He wants me to be a doctor but that's like a really boring job to me. Before I lost my mum, she used to teach me some dance moves and I grew to be a natural that I am right now. My dad hates it, he hates dancers. He's the religious kind of man so he calls it a waste of time.

Even though I'm not interested in this "course" if mine I still have to be prepared.

"Good morning Dad" I say as I approach the dining room. I can already smell the aroma of roast chicken and my tummy wants to just consume everything at this point.

"Good morning my jewel" He says as he kissed my forehead

"I can't believe you're grown already, it's all like a dream and today you'll be miles away from me" he's getting emotional now.

"You'll be fine dad" he's trying to hide his tears now.

My dad gets emotional most times but he's as tough as a rock and as stubborn as a goat.

" I made roast chicken" he says as he brings out the yummy little chicken from the oven

"Be careful it's still ho.." he raises his head to see me taking a big bite out of the meal already. He chuckled.

"I'll miss you" he says while smiling

"I'll miss you too Dad".

After breakfast I went to my room to take my bath since that would be the only thing I'll be doing. I arranged my outfits already and I don't feel a little bit nervous.

As soon as the hot water touches my skin my body relaxed under the shower as I run my fingers in my hair and shaved my arm pit. I might as well set a reminder on my phone to remind me to buy some wax.

I tie the towel around my waist and walk out of the bathroom, I really don't have much time left. I hurrily dry my air,wear my clothe, an off shoulder top and a high waisted blue jean. I put on my lucky bracelet, the one my mother gave to me.

"Jane!!" Dad yells again

"I'm coming" I yell back

"Take care dear and are you sure you don't need me to escort you?"

"That won't be necessary dad and I don't want to stress you" I say.

He helps me to put my luggages in the booth of my car and kisses me on my forehead.

"Jane?"

"Yeah?"

"Focus" he says

I enter my car and starts to drive, I can still see my dad watching my car. Well... he'll be fine.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.
