Burnt for Her, Saved by Amnesia
Modern I woke up in the hospital with a fractured tibia and a hell of a headache, but the worst part? Amnesia.
They said I'd forgotten someone important, but when my buddy Matt showed up, his face etched with worry, and asked, "You really don't remember Emily?", I drew a blank. Emily who?
Turns out, pre-accident me was obsessed with Matt's sister, Emily. Chased her for two years straight, showering her with flowers, gifts, and even redesigning my whole damn apartment in hopes of impressing her. Total cringe. The kicker? She wasn't interested. Cold, distant, and according to Matt, I was bordering on stalker territory. My phone was filled with creepy candid shots of her, and my notes app looked like a stalker's diary. Likes, dislikes, journal entries detailing every rejection.
I was horrified. This wasn't love; this was a damn train wreck. Who was this pathetic dude?
Then, standing at the edge of a new life, my mom mentioned Chloe, a childhood friend, and a potential architectural project back home at her family's farm. Ditching my city life and all those toxic memories, I vowed to never love her again. Forget getting my memories back; I was starting fresh. This time, with someone genuine. My Husband's Blindness, My Sweet Revenge
Romance The roasted lamb was cold, a reflection of her marriage. On their third anniversary, Evelyn Vance waited alone in her Manhattan penthouse. Then her phone buzzed: Alexander, her husband, had been spotted leaving the hospital, holding his childhood sweetheart Scarlett Sharp's hand.
Alexander arrived hours later, dismissing Evelyn's quiet complaint with a cold reminder: she was Mrs. Vance, not a victim. Her mother's demands reinforced this role, making Evelyn, a brilliant mind, feel like a ghost. A dangerous indifference replaced betrayal. The debt was paid; now, it was her turn.
She drafted a divorce settlement, waiving everything. As Alexander's tender voice drifted from his study, speaking to Scarlett, Evelyn placed her wedding ring on his pillow, moved to the guest suite, and locked the door. The dull wife was gone; the Oracle was back. Rejected by the Alpha: Carrying His Secret Heir
Werewolf I waited at the private tarmac to surprise my husband of three years with my positive pregnancy test.
But a sweet, feminine voice answered his phone, and when he finally came home, he handed me a divorce agreement on our third anniversary.
He coldly announced that his childhood sweetheart, Kyla, had returned, and it was time to end our marriage. At his company, my major marketing project was snatched away and handed to Kyla. When I confronted the coworker who viciously insulted my late father, my husband stepped in.
"Apologize. Now."
He used his Alpha command to force my submission, then ordered me to personally manage Kyla's campaign, making me build her throne with my own hands. He even handed me a rare vinyl record I'd always wanted, only for Kyla to publicly humiliate me later.
"Do you like the gift I gave you, Arla?"
I was just a wolfless Omega, a pathetic placeholder who kept his bed warm while his true Luna was away. Three years of my devotion meant absolutely nothing, and I was left utterly destroyed, carrying a secret baby he didn't even give me the chance to reveal.
But as I stood in the corner of their celebration banquet, watching them accept everyone's blessings, my hand rested on my flat stomach.
The heartbreak faded, replaced by a cold, unshakeable resolve.
This wasn't about love anymore; from now on, I would be the one making the rules. Fleeing From My Possessive Billionaire Ex
Romance Three years after divorcing my billionaire ex-husband, I made the colossal mistake of sleeping with him.
To erase the humiliation, I accepted a date with a gentle colleague, only for my ex-husband to ambush us at our daughter's preschool.
He saw us together, his eyes turning as cold as steel.
"I'm reconsidering our arrangement. I'm filing for sole custody."
He dropped the words like stones, then ruthlessly ordered his lawyers to prepare the papers immediately.
He knew Poppy was my entire world, the only reason I survived our suffocating marriage.
I was terrified, but the nightmare was just beginning.
That night, Poppy slipped out of my apartment and ended up at his penthouse with a dangerously high fever.
When I frantically rushed over to treat her, the ruthless tycoon who always put his empire before me suddenly looked vulnerable.
He handed me a bowl of hot soup, his voice losing its usual commanding edge.
"Don't go, Chloe. Poppy needs you. And I need you."
I stared at him in disbelief.
Why now?
Why use our sick child as a weapon to chain me back to a gilded cage he knew I almost died escaping from?
As my daughter cried and clung to my neck, begging me not to leave, I looked at the powerful man standing in the doorway.
I was trapped by their love, but this time, I wouldn't just surrender. Too Late, Mr. Mafia: The Surgeon He Discarded
Mafia I was the wife of Dante Cavalli, the most ruthless mafia Don in the country.
But today, his Underboss slid mandatory annulment papers across my hospital bed, ordering me to dissolve our marriage.
In my past life, I dropped to my knees and begged them not to abandon me.
I spent the next thirty years locked in Dante's massive penthouse, waiting for a man who bathed the streets in blood but never gave me a single drop of warmth.
My aristocratic mother-in-law stripped me of every cent, leaving me completely isolated.
I foolishly threw away a brilliant surgical career to be a submissive, obedient mafia wife.
In the end, Dante never came to see me, and I died entirely alone in that massive, empty bed.
Until my last breath, my chest was suffocated by a lifetime of regrets.
I couldn't understand why I had sacrificed my freedom and my scalpels for a man who would only feel a twisted guilt decades after I was already a cold corpse.
Opening my eyes again, Fate had dragged me back to the exact day my nightmare truly began.
Matteo stood at the foot of my bed, clearly expecting my usual pathetic tears.
"Take your time to think about it."
This time, I didn't cry or beg for my life.
I just picked up the fountain pen, signed my name, and walked out to reclaim the scalpel I had abandoned. Taming My Time-Traveling Lover in My Bed: The Savage King
Modern I bought an antique four-poster bed at Sotheby's, said to be the final resting place of a long-dead European king.
A week later, I woke up to the thick smell of blood, only to find a massive, heavily wounded man in my bed holding a forged steel sword to my throat.
He was dressed in ruined velvet and gold, bleeding out from a massive abdominal gash. When I tried to save him with modern medicine, he called it sorcery and nearly choked me to death. He destroyed my expensive appliances, treating my home like a witch's lair. I thought he was a lunatic cosplayer who broke in, until he tossed me a massive ruby ring as a down payment for my help. I looked it up online. It was the lost coronation ring of King Cain the Cruel, valued at thirty million dollars.
I was terrified of this savage who could snap my neck in an instant. I couldn't comprehend how a tyrant who had been dead for 135 years was breathing in my attic, until he lay back down on the antique mattress and literally vanished into thin air before my eyes.
The bed was a time portal.
The police would lock him in a psych ward and confiscate the priceless artifact, leaving me with nothing but bloodstained sheets and trauma.
"I can give you more wealth than you can imagine."
So, when he reappeared and offered me the lost Fabergé eggs of his fallen empire in exchange for modern shelter, I didn't call 911. I took his hand and became the 21st-century gatekeeper for a time-traveling king. The Scapegoat Fiancée: I Am No Substitute
Mafia Seven years. That was the price I paid for my sister’s crime.
My fiancé, Dante, the most ruthless Don in New York, called my prison sentence "mercy." He promised we would go back to how things were once the debt was paid.
But when I walked out of those gates, I didn't find a husband waiting for me. I found him peeling grapes for my sister, Chiara.
They sat at the family table, telling me I was unstable. They demanded I break our engagement so Dante could marry her instead.
They claimed she was fragile, dying of leukemia, while I was "strong enough" to handle the rejection.
They didn't know the truth.
They didn't know that while I was in solitary, I was dragged to a clinic to donate my bone marrow—without anesthesia—to save her life.
I gave my freedom and my bones for this family. Yet, when I told Dante the truth, he looked me in the eye and called me a liar. He chose the sister who framed me over the woman who sacrificed everything for him.
So, I didn't scream. I didn't fight. I simply disappeared.
Two years later, when Dante finally found me in a gallery in Paris, begging on his knees with his wrist slashed in desperation, I didn't feel love.
I looked at the man who destroyed me and said, "Security, please escort this gentleman out." Five Years, A Fading Love
Romance For five years, I was Grafton Mcleod's shadow. I wasn't just his assistant; I was his alibi, his shield, the one who cleaned up his messes. Everyone thought I was in love with him. They were wrong. I did it all for his brother, Justen—the man I truly loved, who made me promise on his deathbed to look after Grafton.
The five years were up. My promise was fulfilled. I handed in my resignation, ready to finally grieve in peace. But that very night, Grafton's cruel girlfriend, Cherrelle, dared him to a deadly street race he couldn't win.
To save his life, I took the wheel for him. I won the race but crashed the car, waking up in a hospital bed. Grafton accused me of doing it for attention, then left to comfort Cherrelle over a sprained ankle.
He believed her lies when she said I pushed her, shoving me against a wall so hard my head wound split open again.
He stood by while she forced me to drink glass after glass of whiskey he was deathly allergic to, calling it a test of loyalty.
The final humiliation came at a charity auction. To prove his love for Cherrelle, he put me on the stage and sold me for the night to another man.
I had endured five years of hell to honor a dead man's last wish, and this was my reward.
After escaping the man who bought me, I went to the bridge where Justen died. I sent Grafton one last text: "I'm going to be with the man I love."
Then, with nothing left to live for, I jumped. The Face Swap Scandal
Romance My fiancée, Chloe Miller, replaced my face with someone else' s on our engagement photos and posted them online, proclaiming "Liam Stone" her "soulmate" after "ten years of waiting."
When I confronted her, she dismissed it as a "joke" for her followers, but at our lavish engagement party-which I paid for-she publicly disavowed me, feigning ignorance and crying harassment, leading to me being brutally beaten and thrown out by security.
Waking up in the hospital with a concussion and broken ribs, I watched her and Liam flaunt their "new life" on social media, even occupying my apartment. Her subsequent call, laced with fake concern and an audacious request that I jump-start Liam' s car, truly opened my eyes.
The pain of betrayal was immense, but it was nothing compared to the sickening realization that I had wasted five years, abandoning my family for a manipulative parasite. The absurdity of her demands, even after all this, finally brought a cold clarity.
I hung up, dialed my mother, and asked if the arranged marriage offer was still on the table, ready to reclaim the life I had foolishly cast aside. The Shattered Wife's Ascent
Romance My husband, David Chen, the CEO of "InnovateX," called for a celebration on our fifth anniversary. He announced, with a theatrical wink, that the two representatives for the Global Tech Summit in Hawaii would be chosen by a game.
He drew his own name first, then reached into the glass bowl, his hand going straight for a specific spot, and pulled out a precisely folded slip: his much-younger assistant, Emily White.
A wave of whispers and knowing glances went through the office. Emily, wearing the new perfume I' d noticed in our bathroom, practically ran to him, her red nails lingering on his arm after an embrace that lasted far too long. I stood frozen, the silent partner, the co-founder, the wife whose marriage was a secret to protect his "young, bachelor CEO" image-an image he was now building with Emily.
The next morning, Emily sabotaged a crucial presentation I' d spent two months perfecting. David, instead of holding her accountable, punished me. He canceled my trip and ordered me to fix "my department's mistake" over the weekend, all while comforting Emily and giving her credit for my work in front of the entire company. The humiliation was a physical weight, pressing down on my chest.
Later, I found an elegant Vera Wang box on our bed, a dress I' d dreamed of. My heart leaped, hoping for an apology, a real celebration of our secret marriage. But David nonchalantly explained it was for a client, "to seal a deal." Hours later, I found his phone, a notification for "E's final dress fitting tomorrow" on the screen. The wallpaper was Emily, in my wedding dress, with his chilling caption: "My future Mrs. Chen." The glass shattered in my hand. My entire world shattered with it.
The silence in our once-shared home was deafening, the truth a cold, hard slap. This wasn't about business; it was about betrayal, about a life I poured my soul into, stolen and given to someone else. I was ready to vanish, a ghost in my own life. But the rage that simmered beneath my quiet compliance ignited a spark. Now, I wanted something more than to disappear. I wanted justice and I wanted everything back. Reborn For Vengeance, Not For Love
Modern The sterile scent of the morgue was the last thing I remembered, watching my own lifeless body while my mother sobbed for someone else.
My death, labeled a suicide after pushing my foster sister Ashley down the stairs, was a lie.
No one cried for me, Chloe Chen; only for Ashley Miller, my mother Sarah' s "precious" foster daughter.
My mother's betrayal had been a slow poison: she' d stolen my inheritance, my future, even fabricated a criminal record for my decorated NYPD father to disqualify me from a prestigious government job, all for Ashley.
The final blow was discovering the truth in my mother's safe: a secretly altered birth certificate listing Ashley as her biological daughter, and me as erased.
The grief consumed me, and my final confrontation ended my life.
Lingering as a ghost, I saw Ashley' s faint, triumphant smirk, very much alive, playing the tragic victim.
Rage consumed me-a tearing force demanding justice, revenge.
Then, the world twisted violently, dissolving into white light, pulling me backward through time.
I gasped, sucking in a real breath of warm, lemon-scented air.
I was in my childhood bedroom, my phone buzzing with the date: the day my background check for the government job began.
I was alive.
I was back.
This wasn't just a second chance; it was a chance to fight.
I heard my mother' s cheerful voice downstairs, cooing over Ashley: "Ashley, darling, come see what I bought you."
She presented Ashley with an expensive designer bag, then offered me a cheap knock-off.
In my past life, I' d forced a smile, but now, I saw the deliberate cruelty.
"No, thank you," I said, my voice clear and firm.
My mother' s smile faltered, her face hardening as I called out her insult and Ashley' s fake concern.
When I denied Ashley was my sister, her fury erupted, culminating in a violent slap that left me bleeding.
Any shred of hope for my mother vanished with that blow.
She blamed me for Ashley's feigned injury, demanding an apology.
"You hit your own daughter to defend a fraud," I spat, revealing I knew about Ashley' s true parentage, the truth about Jake Miller.
Leaving their shattered lies behind, I contacted Officer Thompson, my father' s best friend, to uncover everything about Jake Miller and their scheme.
He revealed the horrifying truth: my mother, a victim of human trafficking by Jake Miller at fifteen, had given birth to Ashley and abandoned her, consumed by guilt.
Now, that guilt had been weaponized into a calculated criminal conspiracy by Ashley and the recently released Jake Miller.
I was done being manipulated.
At Ashley' s lavish "victory" party, poised to celebrate her stolen job, I delivered my counter-punch.
As the clock struck 8 PM, Ashley' s name was missing from the State Department list.
Mine was at the top.
Then, the doorbell rang.
Two NYPD officers, with David Thompson, delivered the crushing blows: my mother was arrested for fraud and bribery.
Ashley' s meltdown began.
I silenced my condemning relatives, exposing my mother' s hypocrisy and her scheme to slander my father and erase me.
On the living room TV, I projected the forged birth certificates, revealing Sarah' s deceit and Ashley' s true parentage: the daughter of a human trafficker.
"This is my father' s house," I told a stunned Ashley, opening the door. "Get out."
She retorted with a threat: "My father will hear about this."
Knowing Jake Miller' s greed, I set a trap, luring him into a confession that led to his re-arrest.
I sent Ashley a photo of her father in handcuffs.
I never heard from them again.
The past was behind me.
I was Chloe Chen, no longer a victim, but finally free. A Wife's Quiet Devastation
Modern My husband, Mark, swore he' d never betray me.
After three years of his relentless pursuit, promising a world where my work was respected, I believed him.
Then, a routine check of our shared finances revealed recurring, substantial transfers to a secluded suburban home I' d never heard of.
I drove there myself, my heart pounding at the sight of his second car in the driveway, the one always "at the repair shop."
Chloe, Mark' s distant cousin, opened the door, her panic palpable, and behind her, two small children, twins, peeked out with Mark' s eyes.
Just then, Mark' s car pulled in, and his smile vanished when he saw me, followed by his parents, beaming, cooing over the toddlers.
He dropped to his knees, begging, "Those aren' t my kids. I swear they aren' t."
He spun a tale of Chloe' s assault and his noble act of protection, a story Chloe tearfully corroborated, then added, "Please, let me stay."
As she moved, I saw it-a clear, undeniable pregnant belly, and before I could ask who this father was, she shrieked, pulling a paring knife to her throat, "Don' t ask! I can' t take it! I' ll kill myself!"
Mark' s parents shot me dirty looks, comforting a sobbing Chloe, their unified front of lies cornering me.
I gave a stiff nod, allowing this charade, this invasion, into my home.
But in that moment, something inside me broke. He didn' t buy himself more time; he' d only started the clock on his own destruction. The Woman He Wronged
Romance The city lights glittered below, a diamond carpet as I stood on Liam's penthouse balcony, a velvet box heavy in my pocket.
Inside, the watch I'd saved for months, a five-year anniversary gift for the man who was supposed to be my future.
He was the brilliant tech entrepreneur, my Liam, and tonight was about us.
Then, his voice, cold and casual through the slightly ajar sliding door: "The wedding is in two weeks."
My breath hitched.
Wedding?
A dismissive laugh followed.
"Chloe doesn't need to know."
"She's… comfortable."
"She can be my girl on the side."
"It's the perfect arrangement."
"I get the family connections, and I still get to keep the woman I actually enjoy being with."
The world tilted.
Mistress.
The word echoed, a sickening smear across my vision.
I was a business plan, a line item.
The five years, the love, the life we'd built-all a lie to be sold for a better deal.
The casual cruelty was a physical blow, leaving me unable to breathe, lost in a room suddenly filled with monstrous laughter.
He caught my eye from across the room, smiling that warm, intimate smile he reserved for me, the one that promised forever.
And in that moment, the champagne glass slipped from my numb fingers, shattering on the polished floor, echoing the complete destruction of my heart.
His fake concern, the lies in his eyes-I saw it all.
Chloe Chen, the woman who loved him, ceased to exist.
I walked out of the penthouse, out of that life, knowing I had to erase him.
Piece by piece.
Starting with me. From Outback Predator to Texas Queen
Mafia Three years in the unforgiving Australian Outback had transformed me from the Cullen Cartel' s soft heir into a predator, but nothing prepared me for the sickening horror awaiting me in Texas.
I' d returned, expecting to surprise my sister and mother, Maria, after a dubious "hunting accident" had severed contact with my uncle.
Instead, on my first acquisition as the new Cullen head, I stood on a VIP balcony, watching an illegal auction devolve into a nightmare.
Down below, my sister Molly, drugged and half-naked, was paraded like livestock, a "charity" lot to be sold off in parts.
Matthew Scott, her ex-fiancé, grinned, announcing her as "a lesson" for Maria, humiliating her every step of the way.
My mother, once a formidable Cullen, looked broken, her dress second-hand, as Matthew jeered about her foreclosed ranch and called her a "cleaner."
She tried to save Molly, desperately, using our family's sacred Saddle-Maker's Coin and then the priceless soil from our founding homestead, each treasure a piece of her soul.
Matthew, Wendy Fuller, and my own father laughed, reveling in the cruelty, planning to sell Molly' s kidney and then auction her beloved horse, Starlight, to a slaughterhouse.
The raw injustice burned through me, watching my mother, once so proud, making unimaginable sacrifices to shield her child.
How could they do this?
How dare they desecrate what was mine?
In that moment, a cold, precise rage solidified inside me, turning pain into power as my mother, with a final, desperate plea, cast a plain black card onto the auctioneer' s table, crashing the system and signaling the true turning point of the Cullen empire. The Husband's Cruel Secret
Romance Today marked our fifth wedding anniversary, sweet with the scent of blueberry pancakes, and I hummed, cradling the secret joy of our twelve-week pregnancy. I couldn't wait to surprise Mike tonight with the news we'd finally conceived after years of trying.
But a sudden, chilling suspicion washed over me when I looked at the "stronger supplements" Mike had insisted I take, recommended by his high school ex, Jessica. These pills were unfamiliar, chalky, and came in a plain, unmarked bottle.
A frantic search of Mike's sock drawer yielded a pharmacy printout: Misoprostol, a drug specifically used to terminate pregnancies. The dosage matched his instructions for the "supplements." My baby was gone, blood gushing, the world went dark.
I woke in a sterile hospital room, our baby gone, my mother's face a mask of grief. Mike walked in, completely devoid of remorse, claiming Jessica "needed this" for *her* last chance to have *his* child, accusing me of being "insensitive" to her needs.
Then, my father, crushed by the devastating loss, collapsed into a coma. While he lay fighting for his life, Mike publicly flaunted his relationship with Jessica online, creating a GoFundMe painting himself as their selfless hero, and me as the "unsupportive, bitter ex."
The audacity escalated when his lawyer brazenly suggested I "channel my maternal instincts positively" by caring for Jessica's future baby. My anguish turned to a cold, hard resolve as I realized the depth of their malice. I wasn't just getting a divorce; I was going to make them pay for every lie, every manipulation, and every ounce of pain they had inflicted. Six Lives, One Endless Game
Sci-fi Five times I died.
Five times I tried to build a life, a bond, with Ethan Cole, and five times I failed.
The last time was a masterpiece of cruelty.
He knew.
All along, through every new face, every persona, he knew.
“I’d rather jump off this skyscraper, Amelia, than be with your desperate act.”
His icy words cut deeper than any simulated death the ReLife Program put me through.
My current identity, Maya, drowned three days later.
Always an accident.
I was trapped in an endless loop of new lives, new hopes, and the same crushing, inevitable end.
Just survive.
Stop dying.
Exhausted, I was offered an unprecedented choice: Ethan, or Liam Walker, his best friend.
As consciousness faded, a desperate whisper echoed: "Next time... choose me..."
A dying hallucination?
Or was it Liam?
I chose him.
I became Sarah Miller, armed with five lifetimes of observation, determined to finally break the cycle.
But Liam wasn't the salvation I hoped for.
He was aloof, his actions bafflingly calculated.
My carefully planned “accidental” encounter with CEO Liam ended with a cold dismissal, leaving me shattered.
Was I destined to another death, or could I finally escape this cursed program, and the frustrating game he seems to play? You might like
Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle
Ming Yue Twenty minutes before the "Wedding of the Century" at The Plaza, I stood outside the Presidential Suite in a fifty-thousand-dollar Vera Wang gown. I was the girl from a West Virginia trailer park about to marry Hugh Maxwell, the golden heir to a billion-dollar defense empire.
I pushed the door open only to find Hugh pinned against the bed with my own stepsister, Floy. She was wearing my bridal diamond necklace, and the sounds of their laughter scraped against my eardrums like sandpaper.
I didn't scream; I listened as Hugh grunted that once the wedding was over and the trust fund unlocked, he'd dump "that hillbilly trash" on a bus back to the mountains. They weren't just cheating; they were planning to steal my family's land deeds and leave me with nothing. When I set off the sprinklers and exposed their naked bodies to the paparazzi, the Maxwell family didn't apologize. They called me a "greedy peasant" and threatened to ruin my life unless I signed a new deal to save their crashing stock.
I realized then that I was never a bride to them. I was a transaction, a rounding error in a ledger to be used and discarded. They thought my poverty made me weak and my silence made me a victim.
"If we don't have a marriage certificate by midnight, the bank freezes thirty percent of our liquidity," their lawyer warned.
So, I gave them exactly what they wanted. I used a loophole in their hundred-year-old family covenant and married the only other direct heir available. I didn't marry Hugh. I walked into the ICU and married his uncle, Fleet Maxwell-the legendary war hero who had been in a vegetative state for months.
Now, I am the matriarch of the Maxwell dynasty. I've suspended Hugh's executive powers, exiled my mother-in-law to the Swiss Alps, and taken control of the family vault. They think I'm just a gold-digger waiting for a "corpse" to die so I can collect a fifty-million-dollar widow's payout.
But last night, as I lay beside my comatose husband, the man they called a vegetable gripped my hand back. Rejected By My Ex, Desired By His Father
Glitch Petal After six years together, Joslyn was abandoned before her wedding when her boyfriend chose his first love over her.
Then came an unexpected proposal-from Connor, her ex-boyfriend's adoptive father. "Marry me. You'll get everything you want-and you can get back at him."
The deal came with its perks: a lavish monthly allowance, abundant resources at her fingertips, a husband who was practically never home, and the sheer pleasure of rubbing her new status in her ex-boyfriend's face.
But the distant husband she expected turned possessive instead.
While her ex begged publicly for another chance, Connor pulled her into his arms. "Say that again, and you'll be out of the family forever."
Only later did Joslyn discover the truth-Connor had spent six years planning to make her his.
Believing it was only a beneficial deal, Joslyn agreed.
Constant traveling? A complete lie. And the promise that they'd each live their own lives? Another carefully spun deception. On their wedding night, he had her pinned beneath him, his kisses stealing her breath. And night after night, he kept coming home-utterly fixated on her. Flash Marriage to the Tycoon, I'm Spoiled Rotten
Hollow Echo Cast out by an "elite" family and mocked by high society, Elena shocked everyone by marrying the most powerful man in town.
They assumed it was a temporary arrangement-after all, he had said, "The agreement is for two years. After that, we're done."
Yet after the wedding, he refused to let her go. "Elena, you can't leave me."
As he doted on her, rumors shattered one by one. A renowned painter, top hacker, and tech mastermind-her true identities stunned the world.
When a luxury empire announced their lost heiress, all eyes turned to her. "Why did she look exactly like Elena?" The Unwanted Wife Is A Zillionaire
Reilly Mcardle For seven years, I played the perfect, hidden wife to billionaire August Chambers while working quietly as an ER nurse.
Three days before our marriage contract expired, he stormed into my emergency room carrying a bleeding woman. It was Allena, his cousin's fiancée.
She had suffered a ruptured corpus luteum from their violent, aggressive sex. Instead of hiding his affair, August ordered me to clear the floor and threw a massive check at my face to buy my silence. Later, his friends trapped me in a VIP club. When a waiter tripped, August violently shoved me aside just to protect Allena from a spilled cup of coffee. I crashed into a glass table, a sharp edge slicing deep into my arm.
"Apologize to her, and I'll have my driver take you to the hospital."
As my blood soaked into the white rug, he stood over me, demanding I get on my knees for his mistress. He didn't know I had faked a miscarriage five years ago to secretly raise our daughter far away from his cruelty. He also didn't know the money he flaunted was pocket change compared to my hidden AI tech empire.
I calmly tied a tourniquet around my bleeding arm with my teeth and wiped my blood directly over his heart onto his custom suit.
"I'm done with you."
The submissive nurse was dead, and it was time to let him burn in the ruins of his own lies. Jilted Heiress: Marrying The Untouchable Tycoon
Piao Guo Allison Montgomery was waiting at the airport when an audio alert from her parked Range Rover flashed on her phone.
Assuming it was a break-in, she checked the live dashcam feed, only to see her fiancé, Finn, and her younger sister, Cheyanne, passionately making out in the backseat.
"Tell me I'm better than her," Cheyanne whispered. "Tell me I'm better than Allison."
"You are," Finn gasped. "God, you are."
When Allison confronted her family with the video, she expected justice.
Instead, her uncle and mother fiercely defended the cheaters.
They blamed Allison's "cold and frigid" nature for pushing Finn away, victim-blaming her in front of the entire household staff.
To protect their corporate alliance, her uncle ruthlessly announced that the engagement would be transferred to Cheyanne, and threatened to strip Allison of her inheritance.
Stripped of her fiancé, her family, and her dignity, Allison realized her pristine twenty-year life was a complete lie.
The people who were supposed to love her were actively protecting her abusers, leaving her utterly isolated and burning with a cold, protective rage.
Refusing to be their victim, Allison targeted Finn's ruthless, billionaire uncle, Adam Kensington, proposing a fake marriage to secure the capital needed to crush her family.
But when the notoriously untouchable Wall Street phantom not only accepted her proposal, but demanded she immediately move into his penthouse to raise his secret daughter, Allison realized she had just sold her soul to the devil.
