The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback
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."Brandon, Brandon, wake up, we are going to be late for our first class" Bruce called as he rushed into the bathroom to get ready,
Brandon lazily dragged himself out of bed, he gazed across the dorm room as a gentle smile appeared on his face, he was finally at the one and only Blue River Academy, the most prestigious and the best school in all of Eleanor. He and his childhood best friend, Bruce Devin both got admitted on scholarships, and coincidentally became dorm mates or so they thought.
Brandon waited for a few minutes before Bruce came out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist and one wrapped around his hair causing Brandon to chuckle,
"Don't say it" Bruce warned,
"Don't say what?" Brandon asked feigning innocence,
"Quit playing dumb, you know what I mean" Bruce replied,
"Oh you mean how you keep tying a turban in your hair that makes your head look like a croissant" Brandon teased with a grin,
"Come on man, that was ages ago, stop bringing it up" Bruce whined,
"But if I did that, who would tease you till your face became a tomato" Brandon replied grinning as he quickly slid into the bathroom before Bruce could find something to toss at him.
20 minutes later, they were walking along the hallway going to class while chatting,
"Hey, did you hear what happened to Rick?" Bruce asked,
"You mean Rick Bradson? no, why would I even want to hear anything about him, the guys a jerk" Brandon replied with an annoyed tone
When the school resumed, the freshers were given the first week off to explore and familiarize themselves with the school ground, it was during this period that Brandon and Bruce encountered Rick Bradson, he was a bully who picked on the scholarship students, he would insult their families, try to take their meals and even go as far as try to physically harm them knowing fully well, he wouldn't get punished, not just because his family was one of the schools most influential sponsors but also a noble house, no one from a poor background could go against them even if they had the best lawyers, no one stood up to him, the other nobles turned a blind eye to it, low status students avoided him like a plague, except for one, Brandon, he always stood up to Rick and due to him being amazing at Martial arts from elementary school, he always put Rick on his bottom.
"Not that I care but, what happened to him? Brandon asked,
"He was selected for a Mythic evolution program but there's news that he's no where to be found at the moment " Bruce replied,
"He's probably just hiding in one of his family's numerous properties around the area" Brandon replied with a flat tone,
"He's not, according to my update, his family said he never came home the previous day and no one has checked into any of their properties around the area" Bruce replied,
"So you are saying he's missing?" Brandon asked with a raised brow,
"That makes twelve of them now" Bruce said with a worried expression,
"Don't you think you are jumping to conclusions here, knowing you, it's probably hasn't been more than a day since you found out Rick was missing" Brandon attempted to cheer Bruce up'
"It's been 17 hours to be exact" Bruce announced proudly,
"Wow, you're totally going to awaken as a Techno mage with an affinity for lightning" Brandon said as he raised his hand to give Bruce a high five,
"Yeah, probably but I'm still so curious about what you might awaken as" Bruce replied as his hand met Brandon's,
"If only I knew my parents, I would probably have an idea" Brandon said with a sad sigh,
