Chapter 1 A new beginning

It was 5:00AM in the morning: It was in the heart of snow in the city of America as one would wish to spend his whole day in bed due to the coldness of the weather.

On this day, little miss Isabella could be seen snoring loudly,her voice almost at everywhere in the room"

as her door suddenly opened revealing her father who was already dressed in a black suit and ties ready to go to work.

He had been knocking on her door since but gotten no response from her and since he knew his daughter was a "heavy slumber" he had to do the needful by twisting the doorknob and letting himself into her room before closing the door behind him.

A little smile crept through his lips as he found his daughter all curled up in bed with her knees almost touching her face...

"Sweetie" he called in a scooting voice.

"Good morning dad! She greeted as she sat on the edge of the bed glancing at her father. "Good morning sweetie" how was your night? "Good, yours. She asked, yarning as her father sighed.

" Stressful, "but why? she asked glaring at her dad who was putting on this sad countenance. Like something was wrong. " Is everything okay dad, '' she asked, noticing how lost he was in his thoughts. "Yes.., yes.. sweetie?" everything's totally fine. He assure as she stood up and walked to him.

"Dad! I think you're working too hard on yourself!! You should probably take a break from your work. "Maybe a week to relax. " Daddy; you'll literally get sick if you continue like this.

She paused and glared at him. "wait dad, please don't tell me this is all because of my school. "It's because of (saint Mary high school) I planned on attending.

She shuddered, already scared that he might get sick if he continues like that. It's okay, if he can't afford the expenses of the school! He shouldn't even think of sacrificing his life for her.

She thought as she awaited his response. "No sweetie" absolutely not! "Please don't worry. Her father muttered, hoping he had convinced her enough because he doesn't actually wanna tell them the truth of what's happening.

He felt like he might get his family worried if he does, so there isn't any need in doing that. He just has to keep the whole Truth to himself.

"Okay father! "please take good care of yourself. " Yeah sweetie" you too! "Just wanna see you first before going to work. Her father utters as she beams, glancing at him suspiciously.

"What's that dad? What's with the new Changes? "seeing me first before going to work?" But you'll see me after you've come back from work right. She asked, beaming a smile which revealed her dimples in her chain.

"Yeah sweetie"but I just wanted to see you, because I might come back home late tonight. "Okay, let me escort you to your car. She uttered and they sailed out of her room heading downstairs.

" Good morning mom! Isabella greeted as her mom gave her dad a peck before exiting the parlour. " Isabella" Her father called as she glared at him. "I want you to listen to what I'm about to say to you!! Okay. Her father spoke as they walked towards the car. she gulped hard nervously waiting to hear what he's about to say to her.

"Promise me this?

No matter what happens, you'll always protect your mother and make sure you guys live a good life even though I'm not around. " But dad why.... "Promise me that first, her father interrupted her off as she sighed. " Fine!! Promise.

" Protect yourself and promise me you'll stay away from the "Kendricks family" her father utter. "Yes of course dad, I can protect myself and mom. But why are you telling me this and who's the " Kendrick family" you don't have to know now sweetie, Everything will be clear to you soon. "But just stay away from them as soon as possible if you have an encounter with them. Her father warned as she sighed.

"Okay dad!! " I'll keep the promises. have a wonderful day at work. She muttered as her father gave her two small boxes. "What's this dad? "oh it's a surprise. Give this red box to your mother and this black one is for you.

" Really, what's inside. She is anxious to know. because her guts tell her it's actually a gift. "It's a surprise. " Tell your mother that I love her so much. With them, he gave her a peck and hope inside his car as he drove off waving at her until she couldn't see him anymore and went back to the house.

"But why was his father behaving strangely? "Could it be that something was wrong. What could be the problem? She thought

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

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.
