Sabrina Ventimiglia gave her all to her marriage, only to be met with disrespect, betrayal and damaged reputation. Two years with him and all she was left with were divorce papers and a name dragged through the mud. With no one to turn to, she finds herself meeting with the one man from her past she had never expected to see again: Luca McCorkindale-CEO of Luca Airline & Transportation. He offered her a way out, a chance to reclaim her name-but it came with a price. Marriage. After enduring nothing but heartbreak in her previous marriage, would Sabrina be willing to get married again?? Most importantly, would she be willing to return back to the man she had once left behind all in the name of desperation??

BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better Chapter 1 The Scandal

Sabrina's POV

"Fuck...Hmm....yes baby, that's it..ohh fuck.." My husband moans filled my ears while I stood at the door watching as he fucked another woman.

He had done it again, Haynes Chadwick had done it over and over again! Fucking another woman on our matrimonial bed when he had never even touched me.

"Fuck you Haynes" A bitter laugh escaped my lips, and they both paused. The shameless sound of moans coming to an abrupt stop.

Turning to look at me, there was no sign of remorse in Haynes cold, dark eyes and that made me chuckle.

"Mira?" I called, surprised but not too shocked. He has a knack for picking my secretaries to be his one day whore.

"It– It wasn't my fault ma'am" She buried her face in her neck, body shaking uncontrollably as her hands grabbed the duvet and she covered her naked body.

"Wasn't your fault? Is it mine that you are in bed with my husband?!" I roared at her.

All Haynes did was send the lady away with a flick of the wrist while I stood frozen at a spot. My secretary fumbled with her clothes as she picked them up and dashed out of the room. I wasn't suppose to be hurt, but my chest tightened and my throat burned. It's what I had been enduring in this prison of a marriage.

Haynes stood up, sliding his jeans on. I moved closer to him and slapped him across the face. Not once, but twice. At least, I could still do that to a man who disrespects me.

The sharp sound echoed in the air but Haynes only smirked.

"Don't you know when to stop?" I asked, my voice trembling, as I held back the tears that glistened and threatened to fall off my eyes.

He chuckled mockingly and that made me feel more disrespected, more irritated and more miserable.

"Are you sure you are supposed to be worried about that and not your failure of a family right now?? You should watch the news, dear wife!" He roared and my breath hitched, my heart hammered in my chest as I wondered what he meant.

Without wasting a second, I rushed downstairs and wasted no time in turning the TV on, my breath hitched- hell! My eyes widened at what I was shown.

As if dealing with Haynes Chadwick wasn't enough, now there is my Dad's fucking problems to deal with. Right there on the news with the news anchor reporting-"The Scandals of Richard Ventimiglia, the CEO of RC corporations" attached to it were videos supporting the anchors claim of what the scandals were all about. I never had a good family, being born into a rich family was nothing to be proud about when my Dad was nothing but someone who can't even take care of himself and what he owns.

The scandal has to do with the shady deals he had made with investors, recordings of illegal meetings which were likely to have been recorded by those partners he trusted so much and videos of him harassing young workers and waitresses whenever he got drunk. It would have been cool if it had nothing to do with me but in just few minutes, it started affecting my company, the only thing I could ever boast of owning.

All because I was his daughter, the public started attacking me, posting malicious comments about me and even a video of me slapping a young lady in a restaurant was revealed.

Hell! That happened a year and half ago. When I was still crazy about my marriage with Haynes. The lady was one of his mistresses who I had only wanted to teach a lesson. I did nothing wrong, but the public wouldn't see that.

I had to confront him; my dad. Ask him what he will do to end this mess involving me. I dashed out of the house slamming the door behind me, but then I remembered my bag and car keys. With a sigh, I rushed back in, heading to the sofa where I had dropped the bag but then I heard distinct low voices coming from the other corner of the room and gently, I tiptoed there, eavesdropping on the conversation of my husband who had come downstairs after I went out of the house.

Haynes said, "He's surely getting ruined, I have to ruin them if I want to help my political career. The next thing I'm doing is getting a divorce. Getting involved with the Ventimiglias is surely a mess"

It took a while, but the realization struck me. The person behind all of this was Haynes and the most heart wrenching part? He has plans for me.

Divorce.

He was going to divorce me, after all my years of sacrifice.

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

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.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
