Love Me Again,My Darling Chapter 1 Chapter 1

CHAPTER 1

*I'm getting married to Lucia.You have to be happy for me.Her family's fortune will change my life.You have nothing to offer me,Daphne but I still love you.I want you to secretly be my mistress.*

Those were the words of her boyfriend of five years.

Those words reverberated in Daphne Howard's head over and over again.

She thought her family's background didn't matter to him.She thought he had loved her,unconditionally.Were the memories?Was everything they went through together so easy to throw away?

How could he do this to her?

And he had the nerves to suggest she becomes his mistress?!

His other woman?

His dirty little secret!

Daphne might not be a perfect woman but she knew her worth.She had great self esteem and would never settle for less.She had bluntly told Jacob that it was over between them.She would never be his mistress or anything to him ever again.

But the pain of the break up was still very fresh in her heart.She leaned against the window,devastatingly.She was in a cab when she caught sight of a club.

She sat up and quickly told the driver to pull over.She just wanted to distract herself.Do anything to get over this pain.

Daphne hurried up to the entrance of the club but she was stopped by two bouncers.

"The club's having a mask party tonight.Everyone has to be on masks."They informed her.

Sighing,she bought a mask by the side,put it on and walked into the club.She immediately went to the counter where she sat and order some alcoholic drinks.

She downed bottles after bottles,wanting to drink her sorrows away.Vaguely,she noticed a man sitting beside her.

He was also on a mask and elegantly sipping his glass of wine.

Daphne's drunk senses took notice of how gorgeous he looked in his suit.She instantly had a feeling that he must have a very handsome face.

As she continued to gush over him,she longed to be in a man's arms tonight.

Without thinking twice,not that she would be able to think twice in her alcohol filled brain,she got off her chair and staggered closer to him.

"Hello there."She purred."Wanna spend the night with me?"

The man only stared at her for a second and to her surprise,he nodded.

**********

Few minutes later found them walking into an hotel room.

As the man turned on the light,Daphne closed the distance between them,stood on her toes and kissed him.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back,passionately.

As he took nibbles after nibbles of her lips,Daphne thought about how much she had loved it when Jacob kisses her.

The man's lips fell to her neck,sucking on her pulse point.

Daphne shut her eyes feeling so turned on and she had no idea when she moaned out a name.

"Jacob."

The man instantly moved away from her.

Daphne panicked knowing no man,even if this was a stranger to her,no one would appreciate you moaning someone else's name.

How did that name even fall from her lips?!

She wanted nothing to do with Jacob!

Daphne froze when the man took off his mask.Her eyes dilated as she recognized him.

Griffin Reyes!

The most sought-after lawyer and Bachelor in Chicago!

He was very famous in the high society and people had so much respect for him.

That wasn't the only thing shocking to her.He was Lucia's brother.The brother of the woman Jacob had left her for!

He was Jacob's future brother-in-law.

She shakily took off her mask and he didn't look fazed by who she was.

He only clicked his tongue and walked up towards the window.

"So you picked me at the bar to make Jacob jealous?"He snarled.

Daphne swallowed hard.

Obviously,Griffin knew who she had been to Jacob.

She couldn't really pretend she didn't know him.

But he had been on a mask and they've never really had a close encounter to recognize him by his voice.

By now,she had sobered up,completely.

The shock of whom she had almost slept with was enough to get her back to her right senses.

"I wasn't making anyone jealous."She explained."We were both on masks and I.and I didn't recognize you.I'm sorry about even suggesting we spend the night together,I was drunk."

Fortunately,he didn't make things difficult of her.

He spun and walked towards her.Taking off his jacket,he placed his around her shoulders.

"Come,I'll take you home,Miss Howard."He said,expressionlessly.

"Thanks."She murmured and followed him.

**********

In Griffin's Maybach,neither of them spoke throughout the drive but Daphne stole glances at him a few times.

She still couldn't believe that she had almost slept with someone as magnificent as he was.

He was literally a Greek god.She stared at his perfect face and expensive clothing.

Daphne guessed he might be used to high societal women.

Griffin pulled over close to her house,he glanced at her,discreetly wishing she hadn't moan out another man's name,wishing they had continued what she had started.

He stretched his business card to her and Daphne wordlessly understood what that meant.

He wanted her to give him a call in any case she wanted to really spend the night with him.She was surprised that a man like him wanted that from her,even after finding out who she was to Jacob.

Even though he was charming and probably good in bed,Daphne didn't want to get involved with him.Not only was he a big shot,he was related to Jacob now and she just wanted to forget all about Jacob.

She didn't even want to see him again.

I spent four hours preparing a five-course meal for our fifth anniversary. When Jackson finally walked into the penthouse an hour late, he didn't even look at the table. He just dropped a thick Manila envelope in front of me and told me he was done. He said his stepsister, Davida, was getting worse and needed "stability." I wasn't his wife; I was a placeholder, a temporary fix he used until the woman he actually loved was ready to take my place. Jackson didn't just want a divorce; he wanted to erase me. He called me a "proprietary asset," claiming that every design I had created to save his empire belonged to him. He froze my bank accounts, cut off my phone, and told me I’d be nothing without his name. Davida even called me from her hospital bed to flaunt the family heirloom ring Jackson claimed was lost, mocking me for being "baggage" that was finally being cleared out. I stood in our empty home, realizing I had spent five years being a martyr for a man who saw me as a transaction. I couldn't understand how he could be so blind to the monster he was protecting, or how he could discard me so coldly after I had given him everything. I grabbed my hidden sketchbook, shredded our wedding portrait, and walked out into the rain. I dialed a number I hadn't touched in years—a dangerous man known as The Surgeon who dealt in debts and shadows. I told him I was ready to pay his price. Jackson and Davida wanted to steal my identity, but I was about to show the world the literal scars they had left behind.

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.
