The Jilted Ex-Wife's Lethal Comeback

Serenity Now Romance

“I endured years of humiliation and forced sedatives from my billionaire husband's family, hoping my quiet obedience would eventually win his heart. When I finally discovered I was pregnant, I thought the child would be our anchor. But when I rushed to his office to tell him, I found his untouchable first love sitting in his chair, rubbing her own swollen belly. She smiled and whispered that she was the one who orchestrated the car crash that left my adoptive mother in a vegetative state. When I lunged at her in a blind rage, my husband shielded her and shoved me backward with brutal force. My spine slammed against a marble table, and blood pooled at my feet. "Kingston, please! I'm pregnant too!" I sobbed, clutching my stomach. He just looked down at me with profound disgust. "I had a vasectomy five years ago," he hissed, condemning me as a cheating whore before ordering his men to lock me up and forcibly abort the child. I had never touched another man. I couldn't understand how the man I loved could order the murder of his own flesh and blood without a second thought. To save myself, I stole his prized Aston Martin and drove it off a bridge into the freezing Atlantic, letting his pathetic, obedient wife drown in the wreckage. Five years later, I returned to New York as a powerful European executive, ready to burn his empire to the ground.”
