The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

Huo Wuer
Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

💋Rylie's POV💋

My eyes peeled open as a full blast of sunshine hit me in the face. I groaned as I turned over, trying to get some sleep when my brother suddenly sauntered into the room.

"Rylie! Wake up!"

I ignored him trying to act as though I was still asleep. He called me a few more times but eventually left when I didn't budge only to return a few moments later and before I knew what was going on, he was pouring a bucket of icy cold water all over me.

"Miles!!!" I yelled frigidly.

He smirked and said "Good morning to you, sis."

"I am so going to kill you." I yelled running after him.

"Guys! Guys! What is it now?" My mom asked, Miles hiding behind her.

"Miles poured cold water all over me."

"Only because she wouldn't wake up." Miles yelled back and I growled.

"Rylie, go get ready for school. Miles, go up to Rylie's room and clean up the mess the mess you made."

"But Mom…" He tried arguing but one look from my mom stopped him.

Instead he sighed and groaned out a "Yes Ma'am."

As he passed by me, I stuck out my tongue.

"You're such a child."

"And you're such a jerk." I replied, heading up the stairs to the bathroom.

I got to the bathroom and took off all my clothes before heading to the shower and turning it on. It felt good as the warm water cascaded down my body. I was done in no time and I came out to find my room sparkling clean.

I headed towards my closet and picked out the clothes to wear which were a white tank top, blue ripped jeans and white sneakers.

Once I was done dressing, I packed all my necessities into my backpack and headed downstairs for breakfast.

"Morning Mom. Morning Dad. Morning butthead brother of mine."

"Morning to you too, fish face." Miles retorted but before I could reply, my mom jumped in and said "That's enough you two. Eat your breakfast."

"Yes mom." We replied in unison, still giving each other the stink eye.

"So Mom, what's with the noise next door?" I asked, halfway through my sandwich.

"Well we have new neighbors."

"New neighbors!?" I asked, louder than I intended.

"Yeah, new neighbors."

"Who are they?" I tried to ask as casually as I could.

"I haven't had time to meet them yet but they got here late yesterday. You were already asleep."

"Oh okay." I replied going back to my food as I took a trip down memory lane.

The house next door had belonged to my boyfriend, or rather ex boyfriend. He and his family had had to move away during the summer and despite all my hopes that we could do it long distance, it didn't work out.

A few weeks after they moved, he uploaded a picture of himself and a girl kissing. I tried calling him to talk it out but he didn't pick my calls…and basically ruined my summer.

I told myself I was over it but it's hard to get over something like that…

"Thanks for the excellent food, Mom. Now I gotta go." I said standing up from my chair and heading to the kitchen sink where I dumped my plate.

"Bye Mom. Bye Dad. Bye butthead." I said as I headed out of the house, not waiting to hear his response.

I made my way to my car and went in. I closed the door, started the car and reversed out of the drive way before heading in the direction of my school.

Rylie Myers is my name. I'm nineteen and I live in Los Angeles, California with my mom, dad and my dumb twin brother, Miles. We live a pretty comfortable life and I really couldn't be happier. I also have two best friends, Olivia and Mason but you'll get to meet them later.

And that's basically all you need to know about me. There's more but you'll find those out later on.

***

Our first class went by as uneventful as could be. It was Maths and it was extremely boring. Nevertheless we pulled through and went on to our next class; History.

However, just before class, I made a visit to the toilet where I ran into an unexpected visitor.

"So we'll catch up later?" I said to Olivia who nodded as I made my way to the toilet where I saw quite a sight.

I opened the door to find a girl giving someone who I recognized as the new guy a blowjob in the girl's bathroom.

"Oh my gosh!" I yelled, horrified at the sight in front of me.

Neither behaved as though they saw me and continued until the guy released all over her face.

I watched as she smiled and licked her lips before washing her face clean with water.

"Later baby." The girl said blowing him a kiss before leaving.

I watched the whole scene with my jaw down before eventually bringing my eyes back to him who was leaning against the wall with a satisfied smirk on his face.

"Oh my God!" I yelled staring at him. "What the heck was that?"

Instead of replying, he scowled at me and asked "Don't you have any manners at all?"

"Excuse me!?"

"You heard me, didn't you parents teach you any manners? If you wanted in, you could have just indicated."

"First of all, gross. Secondly, what the heck are you saying? I wasn't the one getting a “blowjob” in the girl's bathroom!"

"And? If you felt offended, you could have just left. Instead you stayed and watched."

"Only because I was too shocked to move, asshat!"

"Mm-hmm. Whatever you say, girlie… Also, feel free to tell me if you want to hook up. You look like you need it." He winked and walked out of the bathroom.

"Okay… What the heck was that?" I asked myself as I stared at the door, unable to get the image of what I'd witnessed out of my head.
