Chapter 1 Got Green and Flash Married with the CEO

Chapter 1

Maggie unexpectedly gained a domineering CEO boyfriend on the same day she was cheated on by her previous one. He teased her playfully at every opportunity and loved her deeply. However, he always called her "Meg" in bed. Maggie thought it was just one of his peculiar habits.

Later, Maggie saw Megan's grave. Only then did she realize that his deep affection was not inexplicable, but rather perfectly calculated.

In the cramped backseat of the car, Maggie curled up near the door, ready to escape at any moment. However, the man beside her had no intention of letting her go. He shifted closer, pressing his body against hers, and locked the car door.

He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Miss, you think you can ruin my reputation and just leave?"

His breath on her ear made her shiver and feel a sudden heat. "I, um, I was impulsive just now. I'm sorry."

Today was the 100th concert of Brody's career, Maggie's idol since high school. She had spent a fortune buying three tickets from a ticket reseller to attend Brody's concert with her boyfriend Andrew and her best friend Rebecca.

Unexpectedly, when the camera panned to Andrew, he pulled a veil from his pocket and placed it on Rebecca's head. Ignoring Maggie's shocked gaze, he got down on one knee and proposed to Rebecca.

Furious, Maggie glanced at the man sitting next to her. He wasn't bad-looking, had no ring on his finger, and was accompanied by a male friend. In a fit of rage, she grabbed his collar and kissed him without hesitation.

Initially, Maggie only intended to brush her lips against his, but as she tried to pull away, the man cupped the back of her head. She felt his tongue slowly prying her lips open, exploring until it entwined with hers.

"Maggie, what are you doing!" Andrew yanked her away from the stranger.

Maggie found Andrew's anger amusing. He could propose to another woman in front of everyone, disregarding her feelings as his official girlfriend, but couldn't stand her making him a cuckold.

She glanced at Rebecca behind Andrew. Rebecca, perhaps intentionally, raised her hand to adjust her hair, revealing the diamond ring on her finger. Maggie kicked Andrew in the groin. "Do I need to report my actions to you? What relationship do we have? Take care of your fiancée!" With that, she pulled the stranger and left the concert.

Maggie dragged the man out of the stadium. Once outside, she couldn't hold it together any longer. She collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably. Between sobs, she apologized to the man, "I'm sorry for ruining your concert experience. Let's exchange messaging app contacts, and I'll reimburse you for the ticket."

She didn't get a response. Just as she was about to look up, she felt herself being lifted off the ground. The next moment, she was in the man's arms.

He carried her all the way to the parking lot and put her in the luxury car they were now sitting in.

The man continued to close in on Maggie. With no space left behind her, her back was pressed firmly against the car door. "So, tell me, how do you intend to make it up to me?"

He looked at her with interest, his body pressing against her chest. One hand caressed her slender waist, his cold yet handsome face inching closer. Maggie, nervous, closed her eyes. Seeing this, the man stopped teasing her and retreated to a safe distance. "You were quite bold when you kissed me earlier. Now you're scared? That's no fun."

He unlocked the car door. Hearing the sound, Maggie quickly opened the door and fled in a panic.

I was in the kitchen of the Vance mansion, slicing black truffles worth more than my car while my mother-in-law, Victoria, mocked my "backwoods" origins. My back throbbed from standing for six hours, and my head spun from the chronic anemia I’d developed since marrying into this family. Suddenly, my phone vibrated with a call from my husband, Julian. He didn't ask if I was okay or if I’d eaten; he simply ordered me to get to the hospital because his "fragile" friend Caroline needed another emergency blood transfusion. "Her hemoglobin is low, Seraphina. Get to St. Luke's now." I looked down at my left arm, which was a roadmap of bruises and needle marks hidden beneath my sweater. When I tried to tell him that the medical guidelines forbade donating again so soon, Julian’s voice turned dangerous. "I don't care about guidelines. She’s in crisis, and your anemia is manageable. Are you really going to be this selfish after the life we gave you?" Seconds later, a photo arrived from an unknown number. It showed Julian sitting on Caroline’s hospital bed, tenderly feeding her apples. The text underneath was a visceral slap in the face: "He wouldn't even eat dinner with you, but he's feeding me. Thanks for the refill, blood bag." At that moment, something inside me finally snapped. I realized that to the Vances, I wasn't a wife or even a human being—I was a biological spare part, a servant they kept around only to be drained dry for a woman who was faking her illness. I untied my apron, dropped it into the trash, and walked past a screaming Victoria toward the front door. I picked up the phone and dialed the one number I had been forbidden to contact since my wedding day. "Mr. Henderson, it's Seraphina Sterling. Prepare the divorce papers. And if they contest it... burn their entire empire to the ground."

The last thing I remembered was the freezing water filling my lungs. My adoptive parents, the Millers, had sold me, a tool for their precious biological son. They took money from Olivia Hayes's family, the very girl who made my high school years a living hell, and used it to force me out of school, arranging a marriage to a man twice my age. Then, a sterile, mechanical voice echoed in the void, "Host soul detected. High levels of grievance and resentment. Revenge System activating." My eyes snapped open. I wasn't at the bottom of a lake. I was back in my classroom, the day it all started, the day Olivia Hayes framed me for cheating. The system's voice revealed a shocking truth: "You are Ava Hayes, the true heiress of the Hayes family. The woman you know as Olivia Hayes is actually Olivia Miller, the biological daughter of your adoptive parents. A deliberate swap was made at the hospital eighteen years ago." My tormentor was their real daughter, and I belonged to the wealthy family she pretended to be a part of. The sheer irony was suffocating. Olivia, my "sister" in this twisted reality, continued to mock me, ordering me to do her "brother" Liam's homework. Liam, the lazy, entitled leech, expected me to be his personal servant. In my past life, this refusal led to my destruction. But this time, I saw the resemblance between Olivia and "Mom" Miller, the woman who sold me. A cold smile touched my lips. "You're right. Family is so important. You know it's funny. Liam looks so much like his dad, but you… you look exactly like his mom. Almost like you're her real daughter." Planting the seed of doubt, I knew they would soon learn how to play my game. The old Ava was gone. This time, I was setting the board.

I sat on the cold tile floor of our Upper East Side penthouse, staring at the two pink lines until my vision blurred. After ten years of loving Julian Sterling and three years of a hollow marriage, I finally had the one thing that could bridge the distance between us. I was pregnant. But Julian didn't come home with flowers for our anniversary. He tossed a thick manila envelope onto the marble coffee table with a heavy thud. Fiona, the woman he'd truly loved for years, was back in New York, and he told me our "business deal" was officially over. "Sign it," He said, his voice flat and devoid of emotion. He looked at me with the cold detachment of a man selling a piece of unwanted furniture. When I hesitated, he told me to add a zero to the alimony if the money wasn't enough. I realized in that moment that if he knew about the baby, he wouldn't love me; he would simply take my child and give it to Fiona to raise. I shoved the pregnancy test into my pocket, signed the papers with a shaking hand, and lied through my teeth. When my morning sickness hit, I slumped to the floor to hide the truth. "It's just cramps," I gasped, watching him recoil as if I were contagious. To make him stay away, I invented a man named Jack-a fake boyfriend who supposedly gave me the kindness Julian never could. Suddenly, the man who wanted me gone became a monster of possessiveness. He threatened to "bury" a man who didn't exist while leaving me humiliated at his family's dinner to rush to Fiona's side. I was so broken that I even ate a cake I was deathly allergic to, then had to refuse life-saving steroids at the hospital because they would harm the fetus. Julian thinks he's stalling the divorce for two months to protect the family's reputation for his father's Jubilee. He thinks he's keeping his "property" on a short leash until the press dies down. He has no idea I'm using those sixty days to build a fortress for my child. By the time he realizes the truth, I'll be gone, and the Sterling heir will be far beyond his reach.
