Marrying the love of her life should have been Olivia's greatest joy-but it quickly became her worst nightmare. To Harrison, their marriage was nothing more than a mistake, and he treated her as if she were the biggest regret of his life. Heartbroken and defeated, Olivia asked for a divorce. No matter how much she begged, he refused to give their love a second chance. Humiliated and shattered, she returned to her parents' home, leaving behind the man she once adored. But no one-least of all the arrogant Harrison-expected her to come back. Only this time, Olivia wasn't the humble, self-effacing woman he once knew. She returned powerful, elegant, and with a plan: revenge. Yet just as Olivia sets her game in motion, Harrison awakens to a love he never understood-until it was gone. Will he win back the heart he so carelessly broke, or will Olivia's pain run too deep to forgive?

Between Love and the Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 1 Please Don't Leave Me!

The night was cold-cold as the ice that had long since settled in Olivia's heart. The dim lights of the living room barely illuminated the tension that hung in the air as she moved gracefully through the space, burdened by the invisible weight of her troubled marriage.

He-Harrison-the man for whom Olivia had sacrificed so much, watched her from a distance. Yet it wasn't admiration that glimmered in his eyes, but a subtle contempt that lingered in the shadows. Every word he spoke was a sharpened blade, every gesture a cruel reminder of his indifference.

"Olivia, can't you do anything right?" His voice sliced through the silence like a whip as she tried to balance the tray with trembling hands.

Olivia remained silent, her eyes lowered, concealing the pain that pierced her soul. Deep down, she knew something had shattered, but still clung to the hope that one day, he might love her. That hope, however, faded with each passing humiliation.

Harrison, meanwhile, couldn't take his eyes off the elegant woman gliding across the dance floor. Olivia noticed his wandering gaze, and her heart sank at the sight of the desire gleaming in his eyes-a desire that no longer belonged to her.

"Olivia, you're just a nuisance. You should learn some elegance from women like her," Harrison muttered, contempt thinly veiled, as he gestured toward the woman who had stolen his attention.

"But my love, I can be elegant like her... I can shine just as brightly... if only you-" Olivia hesitated, her words flickering like a candle in a storm.

"What about me, Olivia?" Harrison smirked, his eyes devoid of empathy.

"If you were just a little more compassionate with me... You've delegated all the mansion's responsibilities to me. I'm the one who cooks, who cleans. I don't feel like your wife-I feel like your maid!" Olivia burst out, the words spilling with the strength of someone who had kept her silence for far too long.

Her confession hung in the air. Harrison looked at her with a coldness that could freeze even the tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

His scornful laugh pierced the room. "Compassionate? You expect me to feel compassion for a woman as insignificant as you?"

Olivia felt the last remnants of her hope collapse. The elegance she longed to embody, the brilliance she yearned to possess, seemed now more distant than ever- completely unreachable.

The moment plunged into tragedy as Harrison, with a defiant glance, left Olivia standing in the middle of the room and walked toward the enigmatic woman who had enchanted him. The music began, and with every spin, every shared laugh, Olivia's heart was torn apart.

Three years had passed since Olivia had bound her life to Harrison's-three long years in which he had done nothing but wound her heart with abuse and insults. To him, Olivia was no more than a dull presence-a woman who had appeared from nowhere, attractive only for the first few months. Over time, in his eyes, she had become nothing but a burden.

The next day...

"Olivia! Where's my breakfast?" Harrison shouted, his brusque tone echoing through the house.

"As always, Harrison... Olivia doesn't understand you need to leave for work early. I still don't know why you ever married that woman-she doesn't even have a last name. She's a peasant," grumbled Harrison's mother, Emma.

"Mom, I know it was a huge mistake. But our family name won't be stained much longer by her dishonor. Soon, everything will be ready for her to leave this house," Harrison declared coldly.

Emma smiled with satisfaction and stared at her son.

"But you'd better get a maid to help with the chores. If she's leaving, I'm not going to lift a finger in that kitchen."

"Mom, we can't afford a maid right now. Our business is in recession," Harrison replied dismissively.

The mansion's atmosphere was thick, poisoned by the toxicity of broken relationships. Olivia, meanwhile, continued to carry the burden of a crumbling marriage.

And yet, in that moment, the only thing on Olivia's mind was her husband's presence.

She loved him so deeply that she had given up everything that had once been hers. Despite being labeled a mere peasant, Olivia carried a secret of significant proportions-one she had never shared. Her deepest longing had always been true love: someone to love her for who she was, not for what she had.

That's why she had given herself entirely to Harrison Martens, a successful agricultural entrepreneur known throughout the country. At the time, however, both he

and his family were drowning in financial ruin. Despite their difficulties, they continued projecting a glamorous image to society-displaying luxuries and eccentricities they could no longer afford, desperately clinging to the reputation they had built over the years.

Behind the glittering façade, Olivia hid her true identity and the extent of her sacrifices, convinced that one day she would receive the love she so deeply craved.

Remembering the cruel words her husband had hurled at her during the corporate dance, Olivia decided to surprise him. That afternoon, she transformed herself completely: she let her hair down, applied makeup-an art she had never mastered due to her humble life-and wore an elegant dress, though nothing too modern or flashy. She made sure that her reflection in the mirror radiated beauty. Her heart burned with hope-hope that she might win back her husband's affection.

She gathered a few dollars she had saved, planning to take him to dinner at an upscale restaurant, and headed straight to Harrison's company. She entered unannounced. However, all eyes turned to her-not with admiration, but with mocking laughter and whispered ridicule. Everyone sneered at her appearance.

Though a hollow feeling crept through her body as the stares pierced her, Olivia pressed on toward her husband's office. She was about to knock when a strange sound stopped her-noises from within. Intrigued, she froze, her hand suspended in the air, torn between the door and the ominous sounds coming from inside.

And in that instant, Olivia's heart shattered into a thousand pieces.

The sounds were moans-the brutal evidence of her husband's betrayal.

Without a second thought, her body trembling with grief, she burst through the door... only to find the most devastating sight she could have imagined: her husband was cheating on her in his office, right there, with another woman.

When the woman noticed Olivia standing at the door, Harrison quickly covered her and turned to his wife with disdain, scanning her with a mixture of reproach and mockery.

"What are you doing here? And dressed like that?" The woman beside Harrison laughed openly at Olivia. Chapter 1. The Fall

"What's going on here?" Olivia asked, her voice cracking.

When she recognized the woman, she realized it was the same one she had met at the dance.

"What you're seeing, my dear. There's another woman in my life-one who looks nothing like you. So please, get out of my office," Harrison replied coldly.

"But Harrison! How can you do this to me? What did I do to deserve it?"

"You're just a simple woman, with nothing that catches my attention. Look at you- how you're dressed, how you've done your makeup. You look like you walked straight out of a circus," the man snapped in anger.

Humiliation and betrayal twisted inside Olivia's broken heart as she struggled to hold back her tears. The surprise she had been promised had turned into a nightmare from which she couldn't wake. The reality of her marriage was crumbling before her very eyes.

Olivia ran out of the company. Tears streamed down her flushed cheeks. The pain was unbearable-yet the helplessness hurt even more. She loved him. She loved him with such intensity that even the word love felt insufficient.

She arrived at the mansion, still clinging to the hope that her husband would explain himself-that he would react to her discovery and choose to stay with her. That was what she longed for the most.

But Harrison chose to resolve the situation sooner than expected. That night, he arrived with a white envelope. Inside it were bold, cold divorce papers.

"Harrison, you've come home early," Olivia said, hopeful that he was having second thoughts.

The man threw the envelope at her chest. She barely managed to catch it.

"What's this, honey?"

"Are you blind?" Harrison replied mockingly. "Sign it and get out of my house."

"What? No, Harrison-please, my love, don't do this to me. I'll do whatever you ask. Just don't leave me."

"To stay with you, you'd have to be born again. Now go, Olivia. I don't want you in my mansion another minute."

He began pulling all her things from the closets and throwing them on the floor. Olivia, her tears blinding her, picked them up one by one. Inconsolable, she wanted to beg him again-but her husband dragged her across the floor in front of his family's mocking eyes. They all humiliated poor Olivia at that moment, and she felt her soul being mercilessly torn apart, without a shred of compassion.

"No! Harrison, please!" Olivia begged on her knees in front of the mansion's door-just before it was slammed in her face.

No one opened it.

They turned off the lights and left her out there-utterly heartbroken.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.

For two years, I was the invisible force behind tech billionaire Kieran Douglas, convinced that our "private" romance was his way of protecting us from the tabloid spotlight. I managed his mergers, warmed his bed, and waited for a future that didn't exist. The illusion shattered at 6:00 AM when a Page Six alert debuted Kieran’s "real" romance with socialite Aspen Schneider. Before I could even process the betrayal, Kieran sent me a cold, professional text: "Order flowers for Aspen. Pink peonies. Her favorite." When I tried to walk away, my own mother called me a disgrace and threatened to lock my inheritance forever unless I married a sixty-year-old businessman to save her failing estate. At a high-society gala that same night, Aspen intentionally crushed my burned hand in front of the cameras, while Kieran stood by and dismissed me as a "mediocre assistant" who had overstayed her welcome. I stood in the cold New York rain, drenched in champagne and humiliation, realizing that every sacrifice I made for Kieran was a joke. I was a ghost in a penthouse that was never mine, discarded the moment his "soulmate" returned. To the world, I was just a placeholder whose time had run out. But Kieran forgot one thing: my father’s multi-million dollar trust fund unlocks the moment I legally marry. I didn't need love; I needed a signature and a shield. I walked into a discreet law firm and signed a marriage contract with a man I believed was the city’s most notorious, scandal-ridden playboy. I thought I was marrying a degenerate "beard" to buy my freedom and secure my revenge. I didn't realize the man who signed that paper wasn't a playboy at all, but Gaston Collins—the most powerful and dangerous man on Wall Street—and he had no intention of letting our fake marriage stay fake.
