My office monitor, usually a serene portal to the grand Vance estate gates, offered a peaceful view of my perfectly ordered life.
As Mrs. Vance, managing this dynasty was my daily routine, a far cry from my past as a script supervisor.
Today, the screen showed him: Ethan Vance Jr., the man who shattered my world three years ago.
Three years since he' d abandoned me at our Malibu wedding, turning my fairytale into tabloid fodder.
He looked almost the same, carelessly handsome, but beside him stood Chloe Monroe, her hand possessively resting on a visibly pregnant stomach.
My intercom buzzed with the news: "Mrs. Vance, Mr. Ethan Vance Jr. is at the gate, demanding entry."
He strode in, still full of that entitled swagger, proclaiming his pregnant girlfriend would bear the true Vance heir.
Then, with breathtaking audacity, he smirked and demanded I "make him some coffee," as if I were a mere servant to be dismissed and ordered.
