Maggie was dumped by her boyfriend and unexpectedly gained a domineering boyfriend that same day. He flirted with her everywhere, loved her to the core, but always liked to call Maggie "Meg" in bed. Maggie thought this was his special quirk. Later, Maggie saw Megan's grave. Only then did she realize that there was no inexplicable deep love, only calculated manipulation.

Chapter 1 Got Green and Flash Married with the CEO

Chapter 1

Maggie unexpectedly gained a domineering CEO boyfriend on the same day she was cheated on by her previous one. He teased her playfully at every opportunity and loved her deeply. However, he always called her "Meg" in bed. Maggie thought it was just one of his peculiar habits.

Later, Maggie saw Megan's grave. Only then did she realize that his deep affection was not inexplicable, but rather perfectly calculated.

In the cramped backseat of the car, Maggie curled up near the door, ready to escape at any moment. However, the man beside her had no intention of letting her go. He shifted closer, pressing his body against hers, and locked the car door.

He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Miss, you think you can ruin my reputation and just leave?"

His breath on her ear made her shiver and feel a sudden heat. "I, um, I was impulsive just now. I'm sorry."

Today was the 100th concert of Brody's career, Maggie's idol since high school. She had spent a fortune buying three tickets from a ticket reseller to attend Brody's concert with her boyfriend Andrew and her best friend Rebecca.

Unexpectedly, when the camera panned to Andrew, he pulled a veil from his pocket and placed it on Rebecca's head. Ignoring Maggie's shocked gaze, he got down on one knee and proposed to Rebecca.

Furious, Maggie glanced at the man sitting next to her. He wasn't bad-looking, had no ring on his finger, and was accompanied by a male friend. In a fit of rage, she grabbed his collar and kissed him without hesitation.

Initially, Maggie only intended to brush her lips against his, but as she tried to pull away, the man cupped the back of her head. She felt his tongue slowly prying her lips open, exploring until it entwined with hers.

"Maggie, what are you doing!" Andrew yanked her away from the stranger.

Maggie found Andrew's anger amusing. He could propose to another woman in front of everyone, disregarding her feelings as his official girlfriend, but couldn't stand her making him a cuckold.

She glanced at Rebecca behind Andrew. Rebecca, perhaps intentionally, raised her hand to adjust her hair, revealing the diamond ring on her finger. Maggie kicked Andrew in the groin. "Do I need to report my actions to you? What relationship do we have? Take care of your fiancée!" With that, she pulled the stranger and left the concert.

Maggie dragged the man out of the stadium. Once outside, she couldn't hold it together any longer. She collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably. Between sobs, she apologized to the man, "I'm sorry for ruining your concert experience. Let's exchange messaging app contacts, and I'll reimburse you for the ticket."

She didn't get a response. Just as she was about to look up, she felt herself being lifted off the ground. The next moment, she was in the man's arms.

He carried her all the way to the parking lot and put her in the luxury car they were now sitting in.

The man continued to close in on Maggie. With no space left behind her, her back was pressed firmly against the car door. "So, tell me, how do you intend to make it up to me?"

He looked at her with interest, his body pressing against her chest. One hand caressed her slender waist, his cold yet handsome face inching closer. Maggie, nervous, closed her eyes. Seeing this, the man stopped teasing her and retreated to a safe distance. "You were quite bold when you kissed me earlier. Now you're scared? That's no fun."

He unlocked the car door. Hearing the sound, Maggie quickly opened the door and fled in a panic.

I was in the kitchen of the Vance mansion, slicing black truffles worth more than my car while my mother-in-law, Victoria, mocked my "backwoods" origins. My back throbbed from standing for six hours, and my head spun from the chronic anemia I’d developed since marrying into this family. Suddenly, my phone vibrated with a call from my husband, Julian. He didn't ask if I was okay or if I’d eaten; he simply ordered me to get to the hospital because his "fragile" friend Caroline needed another emergency blood transfusion. "Her hemoglobin is low, Seraphina. Get to St. Luke's now." I looked down at my left arm, which was a roadmap of bruises and needle marks hidden beneath my sweater. When I tried to tell him that the medical guidelines forbade donating again so soon, Julian’s voice turned dangerous. "I don't care about guidelines. She’s in crisis, and your anemia is manageable. Are you really going to be this selfish after the life we gave you?" Seconds later, a photo arrived from an unknown number. It showed Julian sitting on Caroline’s hospital bed, tenderly feeding her apples. The text underneath was a visceral slap in the face: "He wouldn't even eat dinner with you, but he's feeding me. Thanks for the refill, blood bag." At that moment, something inside me finally snapped. I realized that to the Vances, I wasn't a wife or even a human being—I was a biological spare part, a servant they kept around only to be drained dry for a woman who was faking her illness. I untied my apron, dropped it into the trash, and walked past a screaming Victoria toward the front door. I picked up the phone and dialed the one number I had been forbidden to contact since my wedding day. "Mr. Henderson, it's Seraphina Sterling. Prepare the divorce papers. And if they contest it... burn their entire empire to the ground."

The last thing I remembered was the freezing water filling my lungs. My adoptive parents, the Millers, had sold me, a tool for their precious biological son. They took money from Olivia Hayes's family, the very girl who made my high school years a living hell, and used it to force me out of school, arranging a marriage to a man twice my age. Then, a sterile, mechanical voice echoed in the void, "Host soul detected. High levels of grievance and resentment. Revenge System activating." My eyes snapped open. I wasn't at the bottom of a lake. I was back in my classroom, the day it all started, the day Olivia Hayes framed me for cheating. The system's voice revealed a shocking truth: "You are Ava Hayes, the true heiress of the Hayes family. The woman you know as Olivia Hayes is actually Olivia Miller, the biological daughter of your adoptive parents. A deliberate swap was made at the hospital eighteen years ago." My tormentor was their real daughter, and I belonged to the wealthy family she pretended to be a part of. The sheer irony was suffocating. Olivia, my "sister" in this twisted reality, continued to mock me, ordering me to do her "brother" Liam's homework. Liam, the lazy, entitled leech, expected me to be his personal servant. In my past life, this refusal led to my destruction. But this time, I saw the resemblance between Olivia and "Mom" Miller, the woman who sold me. A cold smile touched my lips. "You're right. Family is so important. You know it's funny. Liam looks so much like his dad, but you… you look exactly like his mom. Almost like you're her real daughter." Planting the seed of doubt, I knew they would soon learn how to play my game. The old Ava was gone. This time, I was setting the board.

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.

For seventeen years, I was the pride of the Carlisle family, the perfect daughter destined to inherit an empire. But that life ended the moment a DNA report slid across my father’s mahogany desk. The paper proved I was a stranger. Vanessa, the girl sobbing in the corner, was the real biological daughter they had been searching for. "You need to leave. Tonight. Before the press gets wind of this. Before the stock prices dip." My father’s voice was as cold as flint. My mother wouldn't even look at me, staring out the window at the gardens as if I were already a ghost. Just like that, I was erased. I left behind the Birkin bags and the diamonds, throwing my Centurion Card into a crystal bowl with a clatter that echoed like a gunshot. I walked out into the cold night and climbed into a rusted Ford Taurus driven by a man I had never met—my biological father. I went from a mansion to a fourth-floor walk-up in Queens that smelled of laundry detergent and struggle. My new siblings looked at me with a mix of fear and disgust, waiting for the "fallen princess" to break. They expected me to beg for my old life back, to crumble without the luxury I’d known since birth. But they didn't know the truth. I had spent years training in a shark tank, honing survival skills they couldn't imagine. While Richard Carlisle froze my trust funds to starve me out, my net worth was climbing by millions on an encrypted trading app. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves. They didn't realize they were just letting me off my leash. As the Carlisles prepared to debut Vanessa at the Manhattan Arts Gala, I was already making my move. "Get dressed. We're going to a party."
