The Fake Wife

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen
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 packed everything and I could barely hear what Kisha was talking to me. My mind is filled with questions now, why did she do that?

What's wrong with her? She looks desperate about this matter.

"Kisha..." I seriously called her who now stopped talking and looked at me.

"Why?"

"Can you tell me who that girl is?" I asked directly which he swallowed, one by one the few girls left my room to leave the two of us. I saw Kisha's confusion when others left her.

"Carizza, you didn't know?" I raised an eyebrow at him. Would I ask if I knew? It sighed. "That's Georgianna Romano Lanzaderas, but before she got the surname Lanzaderas she's already the omnipotent woman of the world."

"Omnipotent woman of the world?" I asked wonderingly. I am aware of that Romano surname it's well-known but I don't obviously put so much effort to know about it. it nodded.

"Higher than the president, that kind of meaning. She got fame, power, and money. I think she has everything, everyone knows her except you... she is the one who saved their Roman bloodline, everyone looks up to her, second only to the Roman is the Lanzaderas. but he is not that familiar from his face, only his name resonates with him." There is a trace of amazement and admiration on his face. "Do you know that the whole world almost shook when it was found out that Romano and Lanzaderas will be one, knowing that Georgianna is an only child they really need to have a descendant to continue what it started and Lanzaderas is a good bloodline for it . The Lanzaderas are three brothers, there's Queven Lanzaderas, the eldest, the second is Yhulo Lanzaderas and the third is Rajah Lanzaderas." I just kept listening to his story.

"Why didn't the eldest get married?" I asked, because from what I know, the firstborn is often the one who will be sent to such marriages.

"Because the firstborn was involved in a scandal, the Romans didn't want their name to be tarnished, so they chose the safe son which is Yhulo. I don't know much about him because it looks like he's hiding it, it's low-key, their marriage is a secret." He was serious in telling the story.

It seems that the force that that girl has is strong.

"If Romano and Lanzaderas are that strong why do they need us? why is she so desperate to buy one of us when in fact she can pick a lot of girls, she doesn't have a problem with money." I asked wondering, still a puzzle to me. He shrugged his shoulders and took a breath.

"I don't know my radar is weak to gather gossip. but Julika told me that her uncle who works with the Romans said that the two clans had a conflict."

"I don't want to get involved in any of this, Kisha. Why does he have to change his position when he can play it?" She shrugged her shoulders.

"That's what I don't know. Do you know the reason for this is good, what Julika said is not really reliable. This is a good investment, Carizza, don't you want to go to New Zealand and buy a house and land there? This is your chance!" he was right, so Lawrence didn't want to agree to that woman's offer, I was planning to retire. I will save a little bit to make my dream come true.

I will live a peaceful life, get married and build my own family. but why do I seem to be in a serious problem?
