The Mysterious Tycoons Spoiled Wife

The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

Huo Wuer

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.

Alyssa Graham pushed open the door and saw Ryan Young, her boyfriend, having sex with another woman in bed.

That woman's slender arms were wrapped around the man's neck, and her bright red lip prints were all over the latter's naked body. Alyssa immediately knew what was going on without asking.

Alyssa tried hard not to let the tears fall, and the look in her eyes was stubborn. "Ryan, what does this suppose to mean?"

"What a fool! Why even bother asking? Didn't you see it all?" Ryan held the enchanting woman tightly in his arms and gently stroked her hair. "I'm no longer interested in you, Alyssa."

"You are lying. You've just said you loved me yesterday!"

"Nah, that's a lie. Otherwise, how could you have transferred all the money of the Graham Family to my account? Now that I have obtained the Graham Family's wealth, why should I put up with you for any longer? You have such a bad temper and do nothing all day long. Also, you treat me like a servant. Who do you think you are? You were the young lady of the Graham Family. But now, all those that used to be yours are mine. I can easily get any woman I fancy."

While listening to Ryan, who had always been loyal on the surface, Alyssa became utterly stunned.

They met and fell in love in college. However, it turned out that the three-year relationship was nothing but a beautiful yet hurtful lie. Those details that happened in the past three years, such as Ryan waiting in line to buy food for her, holding an umbrella for her in the rain, waiting for her overnight under her dormitory building after their quarrel, came to Alyssa's mind one after another.

After they graduated from college, Alyssa's father wanted to marry her into the Hunter Family. When the Hunter Family's wedding convoy came to pick her up, she jumped out of the hotel dressing room. She eventually prevented the marriage by a suicidal attempt. From then on, the entire Graham Family grew sick of and even hated Alyssa. Besides, because she fell from a high building, Alyssa's kidney was seriously damaged and almost killed her.

Suddenly, a sharp female voice interrupted Alyssa's recollection. "Miss Graham, haven't you figured it out yet? You're just a tool for Ryan to get your family's money. Now that he has made it, you're no longer useful. Stop thinking so highly of yourself. Yes, you used to have the Graham Family standing behind you as you are the family's daughter. Now, even the residence of the Grahams is on fire. Do you still think you are a young lady better than others? Nah, you're just a bitch!"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Alyssa rushed over to the other woman, trying to scratch her face. Instead, however, Ryan slapped Alyssa fiercely.

She turned around and happened to see the video playing on Ryan's phone. In the video, the Graham Family's villa was drowning in the sea of fire. And piercing screams could be heard at the same time.

Alyssa stared at the screen and could not believe what she saw.

Everything was fine when she went back the day before asking for money to transfer to Ryan.

Soon, Alyssa came to her senses and grabbed Ryan by the collar. "How could you do this?"

Ryan pushed her away in disgust, saying, "It's all your fault, you stupid woman. Do you know that I almost got killed by you yesterday? You blatantly asked the Graham Family for money, and others certainly saw my purpose at a glance. Last night, if I hadn't followed you, I would have been arrested as a swindler. If you hadn't transferred the money to me, I really thought that you and the Graham Family were going to partner with each other to collect evidence and send me to prison."
