Escaping My Coldhearted Billionaire Husband
“Ada was eight months pregnant, sitting peacefully in her husband's Manhattan estate, looking at a baby nursery catalog. Suddenly, her husband's mistress, Jacklyn, walked in, threw an ultrasound photo on the table, and locked the door. Before Ada could process the betrayal, Jacklyn dragged her to the top of the marble staircase and threw herself backward just as Desmond walked through the front doors. "She pushed me, Desmond! She tried to kill our baby!" Desmond looked at Ada with absolute hatred. He ignored Ada's breaking water and her agonizing screams for help, leaving her to miscarry on the freezing floor while he rushed Jacklyn to the hospital. He sent Ada to a brutal federal prison for three years, where she was tortured and left with a body covered in horrific scars, mourning the baby she was told died at birth. When Ada was finally released, Desmond destroyed her cousin's company to force her back to his estate as a lowly maid. But when Ada saw Jacklyn's three-year-old son, her world stopped. Right in the center of the little boy's palm was a faint crescent moon birthmark. It was the exact same mark Ada had kissed on her own lifeless baby's tiny hand before the doctors took his body away. How did her dead child become Jacklyn's little prince? Looking at the woman who stole her life and the husband who threw her in hell, Ada clenched her scarred hands and swore she would tear their world apart to get her son back.”
