To the public, she was the CEO's executive secretary. Behind closed doors, she was the wife he never officially acknowledged. Jenessa was elated when she learned that she was pregnant. But that joy was replaced with dread as her husband, Ryan, showered his affections on his first love. With a heavy heart, she chose to set him free and leave. When they met again, Ryan's attention was caught by Jenessa's protruding belly. "Whose child are you carrying?!" he demanded. But she only scoffed. "It's none of your business, my dear ex-husband!"

Love Renewed: The CEO's Wife Escaped Chapter 1 She Doesn't Deserve That

"Come to Imodon Hotel."

After reading the message from her husband Ryan Haynes, Jenessa Wright rushed to the hotel.

The entrance was filled with colors. A new red carpet gleamed, and flowers overflowed from every corner. It was clearly a celebration of some kind.

Today was their marriage anniversary. Was Ryan planning a surprise? A shy smile tugged at Jenessa's lips as she retrieved the crumpled checkup report from her purse. She was pregnant. Her heart overflowed with a sweetness that threatened to spill.

This was the perfect moment to tell Ryan. She wondered how he would react.

Butterflies danced in her stomach as she entered the bustling hotel.

The celebration hall was a crowded buzz. In the center stood Ryan, his tall figure radiating a confidence that always made her knees weak.

He was her husband, the soon-to-be father of their child.

Jenessa approached him, a joyful greeting on her lips. "Ryan!"

Ryan whirled around, his smile dissolving into a chilling frown. "Jenessa? Why are you here?"

The warmth in her chest evaporated. "Didn't you ask me to come?"

He scowled, a crease forming between his brows. "No. When would I have done that?"

Panic clawed at Jenessa's throat. Just then, a woman in a designer dress sashayed up to Ryan and gently linked arms with him. "Ryan, don't be so harsh on our guest."

Jenessa's blood ran cold.

It was Maisie Powell, Ryan's first love!

When did Maisie return? Why was she never told?

"Actually, it was I who invited Jenessa," Maisie purred, her gaze flickering to Ryan.

Jenessa's head spun.

Ryan guarded his phone like a hawk, yet Maisie could send messages from it? A bitter taste filled Jenessa's mouth. "I..." Jenessa stammered, unsure of what to say.

Maisie released Ryan and held Jenessa's hand, saying softly, "I had just come back and Ryan threw this lovely party for my return. When I saw you weren't here, I took the liberty of inviting you."

Maisie's smiling face was met with Jenessa's confused gaze. "Why the glum face? Don't you want me back?" asked Maisie.

"No, it's not that. I was just a little surprised," Jenessa choked out, the words heavy on her tongue.

Maisie's smile remained unfazed. She snagged a glass of champagne from a passing waiter and offered it to Jenessa.

"Come, Jenessa, it's been ages since we last met. Cheers to my return."

Jenessa stared at the offered glass, her hand hovering in the air. "Actually, I can't drink..."

The words barely left her mouth when the wine glass slipped from Maisie's grasp, showering Jenessa in alcohol.

The crystal glass shattered on the floor with a sharp snap.

"Ah!" Maisie shrieked, stumbling backward, feigning horror at the flying shards.

Before Jenessa could react, Ryan shoved her aside.

He scooped Maisie up and held her close. "Are you hurt?" Let's get to the lounge. We'll get you to the private doctor there."

His protectiveness stung Jenessa worse than the spilled wine.

Maisie cast a hesitant glance at Jenessa. "But Ryan, what about-"

Ryan cut her off, his voice laced with impatience. "She shouldn't have even come. She's spoiling the mood."

He carried Maisie away, leaving Jenessa exposed in the middle of the hall.

Shame burned in her cheeks as guests disdainfully gaped and murmured.

It was as if she, the wife, was the shameless other woman.

Despite the humiliation, a sliver of concern for Maisie's safety pricked at Jenessa. She couldn't simply walk away.

After a long, agonizing moment, she followed them to the lounge.

The door was ajar, revealing a snippet of their conversation.

"Ryan," Maisie chided, "that was harsh. Jenessa's been your wife and took care of you for years. A little kindness wouldn't hurt, especially considering you're going to divorce her soon..."

Jenessa froze, the blood draining from her face.

Ryan's voice was cold. "Fine, I will do anything you say."

Maisie cautiously asked, "How will you handle your grandmother? She pushed for the marriage, you know. I heard in the three years you've been married, she's been pushing for grandkids..."

"Don't worry. I'll deal with it," Ryan said curtly. "I promised you. You're the only woman for me, the only one who deserves to be my wife and the mother of my children. Jenessa, she doesn't deserve that."

Each word was a shard of ice piercing Jenessa's heart. She stumbled back, a daze clouding her mind.

The journey home was a blur.

When she finally reached her room, it was completely dark outside.

Mechanically, she pulled out the checkup report, a bitter smile twisting her lips.

This was supposed to be a surprise for Ryan. What a cruel joke.

He wanted a divorce, didn't want their child. If he knew she was pregnant...

"What are you doing?" A cold voice shattered the silence. Ryan stood in the doorway.

I was the titan of Wall Street until an indictment and an ankle monitor turned my penthouse into a gilded cage. To save face, I was forced into a marriage with Elza, a "mute" girl from the Schmidt family whom I treated as nothing more than a silent piece of furniture while my empire crumbled. The night I was poisoned at a high-society gala, a mysterious server in an oversized uniform saved my life with terrifying, clinical precision. They disappeared into the night, leaving me with a silver cufflink and a burning obsession to find the shadow who held my life in their hands. Back home, I took my frustration out on Elza, telling her she was "exhausting to look at" and "smelled like sickness" after her charity visits. Her own family treated her like a stray dog, trying to humiliate her at the next gala by dressing her in what they claimed was a cheap knockoff while whispering to the press that she was nothing but a high-end escort. "Stay out of my way," I would growl at her, never noticing the steel in her eyes. I sat at my table, watching my rivals' stocks plummet and wondering who "The Zero"—the legendary financial ghost—really was. I never suspected that the woman I ignored was the same one solving the equations that were currently burning Manhattan to the ground. The injustice peaked when Elza stood before the city's elite, not as a victim, but as a queen. She dropped over a hundred million dollars to buy back her family’s legacy, revealing a secret fortune that made my own empire look like pocket change. As I grabbed her wrist and saw the small red mole hidden beneath her watch, the truth hit me like a physical blow. The silent wife I had despised was the savior I had been hunting, and she was finally done playing the victim. "We have a lot to talk about, wife," I whispered, realizing I had been sleeping next to the most dangerous woman in the world.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

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.

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.
