Chapter 1

Eloise Brooke

'Congratulations, Mrs Holt. You are four weeks gone'

As I waited in the living room, my fingers tightened around the pregnancy test result, as if my whole world depended on it.

Lucas, my husband, walked in through the entrance door. Elegant in his charcoal suit. A briefcase in his grip. A deep frown on his face... as always.

My heart pumped hard in my chest as I stood and went to take his briefcase. "Lucas... You are home..."

He ignored me and went to sit on the couch.

"How was work? I made dinner... You should shower and eat something." I was sure I looked so stupid right now, with my voice almost shaky. I just didn't want him to have a reason to complain today like he always does.

"I'm not hungry..." He paused, his eyes scanned me with contempt, then he said, "Give me that," his voice icy cold and dismissive.

I hurried to give him his briefcase.

"Sit." He commanded, without so much as even a glance.

My heart pounded hard against my ribcage as I sat across from him, waiting for his face to soften so I could break the news of our baby to him, but what he did next made me freeze on the spot.

He dropped a paper and pen on the center table and pushed them to me, with the casual word. "Sign it, Eloise."

'What's this?' I resisted the urge to ask a question, reaching for the paper, however, my eyes widened the moment I saw what was written in the paper.

'Divorce agreement' I looked at him, shocked.

"Wh... what is this?"

"Divorce agreement. We are getting a divorce, Eloise."

I froze, the paper slipped from my hand. What is he talking about?

"Are you joking?"

"No, I'm not." He replied flatly, and my face went pale.

I swallowed the lump in my throat, picking the paper from the floor.

"Uhm... I...I... Lucas... Wh...why... I mean, what's going on? Why are you giving me this?"

I stuttered, hands trembling, lips quivering, and heart hammering against my ribcage.

"Lucas---"

"Rose and I are getting married. She's carrying my baby, and we are going to start living together soon. I don't want you to make her uncomfortable."

My jaw dropped, and my eyes widened. For a second, I stared in silence, trying to process what he said, and after a long silence, my voice sounded beneath the loud pounding in my chest. "Ro... Rose?"

Rose? Isn't that the woman he claimed was 'just a friend?'. The same woman I've told him several times that I wasn't comfortable with him being around her, and he claimed that I was just being insecure?

"I will write you a cheque later when you are done packing... I think that'll be enough to compensate you since you have nothing now."

Just like that? A cheque? To compensate me? After five years of marriage?

My heart twisted in my chest. I stared at the paper, its black letters swimming before my eyes. My mouth parted, but no sound came. Everything in me had gone still. I couldn't even cry. There were no tears left in my eyes.

'I promise to love, care for you, and cherish you for the rest of our lives'

That vow he made to me five years ago when we were joined together in front of both of our families as husband and wife. Did it mean nothing to him? The promise he made to always protect me, have they gone with the wind?

Love wasn't what brought us together, I know that. This whole marriage thing was arranged by both our parents, but I've always loved Lucas desperately. I was ready to make this marriage work, regardless of what it was going to cost me. But It was the worst mistake I ever made. Trying to make a man who feels nothing for me, to love me.

If only my parents are alive.

Born with a silver spoon in my mouth, and the heiress of a multi-billionaire, I got everything I ever wanted. My parents loved and treated me like a princess. I had the smoothest life, loved by everyone, Lucas and his mom included. At least that was what I thought, but that love only lasted till after the sudden death of my parents, and I lost everything they left for me.

Without another word, Lucas stood and turned to leave.

I rose to my feet and shook my head. "You can't divorce me, Lucas. I'm carrying our child."

He stopped and turned to me, his eyes flickered with shock, but it only lasted for a split second, then disappeared.

I knew I was crazy, but I was hoping he would change his mind about the divorce. However, his next words pierced right through my heart like a dagger.

"Do what you wish with the baby, Eloise. Keep it, or get rid of it... Your choice."

"Lucas!"

"Sign the paper before nightfall."

My legs trembled beneath me, and I crashed to the floor when they weakened.

Twenty months ago, I was here too. Bleeding. Broken. Mourning the child we lost. And he hadn't cared then either. Even when he was the reason we lost the baby.

'Why did I stay even after everything?'

There was only one answer. I was madly in love with him. And if there had to be another reason, it would be that he was the only family I had left. I was practically living at his mercy.

"Lucas..." My voice trembled. "Please don't do this... You can't do this," I crawled to him and held his leg, whimpering.

"You're all I have left, Lucas... Please... don't do this. Our child needs you. I need you." I begged without a choice. If I didn't, I was going to end up on the street. I would not be able to give our child the happy life he or she deserves.

"Sign the paper and leave my house, Eloise. I'm done." He kicked me roughly, and without another glance, walked away, while I cried out...

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?
