The Neglected Wife's Spectacular Corporate Comeback

Ardisj Matthies Romance

“On her fourth anniversary, Chloe prepared a perfect candlelight dinner for her billionaire husband, Julian. He ignored the meal, coldly forced himself on her, and rushed out the door the moment his first love called with a "pregnancy scare." Left alone, Chloe suddenly collapsed from a ruptured ovarian cyst. Bleeding internally and in agonizing pain, she called him from the emergency room, begging him to sign her life-saving surgical consent form. He just laughed coldly. "Are you really so desperate for attention that you'd fake a medical emergency? Stop playing these childish games." He hung up to comfort his pregnant mistress, leaving his wife to bleed out alone. Chloe had to carve her maiden name onto the consent form herself. As the cold anesthesia set in, she realized her four years of absolute devotion were nothing but a cruel joke. He was perfectly fine letting her die just so he could hold another woman's hand. When she woke up alone in the hospital room, her heart had completely turned to stone. She took out the unlimited black card he had given her and swiped a quarter of a million dollars for a new luxury apartment. Then, she signed the divorce papers and scheduled a leak of his company's most confidential files to his biggest rival. Tomorrow, she wouldn't be returning as his devoted wife. She would be his absolute ruin.”
