I walked in on my husband caressing his pregnant mistress' s belly. In my own home. But the real betrayal wasn't his affair. It was when he, his mother, and even my own parents declared my pregnancy a "complication" that needed to be erased for a multi-billion-dollar merger. They locked me in my penthouse and dragged me to a clinic. My own mother and father sold me out for a check, signing off on the procedure to get rid of my baby. "It's time to cleanse the bloodline," my mother-in-law said as they held me down. As the needle went into my arm, I felt my child, the one I'd prayed for, being stolen from me. They didn't just break my heart; they murdered my baby. But they didn't know who I really was. Rescued by my true family-the powerful Pittmans-I learned I wasn't a discarded wife. I was a kidnapped heiress. And now, I will use every bit of my power to make them pay for the child they took from me.

Alyssa Bolton POV:

The sight of Chase with his hand gently caressing Indiana' s swollen belly hit me harder than any physical blow ever could. My own child, our child, a secret I guarded with my desperate heart, felt like a cruel joke in that moment.

His eyes, usually filled with a distant ambition, softened as he looked at her, a tenderness I yearned for but rarely received. He laughed then, a low, intimate sound that wasn't meant for me. It was a laugh that spoke of shared futures and unspoken dreams.

"Alyssa, darling, are you ready for brunch?" Clementina's sharp voice cut through the air, pulling me back from the edge of that dark abyss. My mother-in-law's voice was always precise, like a surgeon's scalpel.

Chase flinched, his hand dropping from Indiana' s belly as if burned. He spun around, his charismatic facade cracking for a split second, revealing a flicker of panic in his usually controlled eyes.

"Alyssa," he said, the single word a question, a plea, a warning. His gaze darted between me and Indiana, who now looked up at him with wide, innocent eyes, a perfect picture of vulnerability.

I felt a cold rage bloom in my chest. He said nothing else, just stood there, letting the silence twist into an accusation. His silence was louder than any shout.

"What was that, Chase?" My voice, to my surprise, was steady, though it felt like shards of glass in my throat. "What was that tender little moment I just walked in on?"

His jaw tightened. Indiana, a master of timing, let out a soft whimper. "Chase, my head... I'm feeling a little dizzy."

Chase was instantly by her side, his arm going around her waist. "Indiana, are you alright? You look pale." He wasn't even looking at me anymore.

"Don't you dare," I whispered, my voice shaking now. This was my home, my life, and he was treating me like an inconvenient interruption.

Indiana buried her face into Chase's shoulder, her small, delicate frame trembling. "It's just the morning sickness, Chase. I'm so sorry." She cast a quick, defiant glance at me over his shoulder, a flicker of triumph in her eyes.

"Morning sickness?" The words ripped from my throat. "You're telling me about morning sickness in my living room, with my husband?"

Nicole had entered marriage with Walter, a man who never returned her feelings, bound to him through an arrangement made by their families rather than by choice. Even so, she had held onto the quiet belief that time might soften his heart and that one day he would learn to love her. However, that day never came. Instead, he treated her with constant contempt, tearing her down with cruel words and dismissing her as fat and manipulative whenever it suited him. After two years of a cold and distant marriage, Walter demanded a divorce, delivering his decision in the most degrading manner he could manage. Stripped of her dignity and exhausted by the humiliation, Nicole agreed to her friend Brenda's plan to make him see what he had lost. The idea was simple but daring. She would use another man to prove that the woman Walter had mocked and insulted could still be desired by someone else. All they had to do was hire a gigolo. Patrick had endured one romantic disappointment after another. Every woman he had been involved with had been drawn not to him, but to his wealth. As one of the heirs to a powerful and influential family, he had long accepted that this pattern was almost unavoidable. What Patrick wanted was far more difficult to find. He longed to fall in love with a woman who cared for him as a person, not for the name he carried or the fortune attached to it. One night, while he was at a bar, an attractive stranger approached him. Because of his appearance and composed demeanor, she mistook him for a gigolo. She made an unconventional proposal, one that immediately caught his interest and proved impossible for him to refuse.

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."
