Too Late For Regret, Mr. Carlisle

George B Romance

“Chloe thought the positive pregnancy test in her trembling hand would finally save her cold, three-year marriage to Alistair. But before she could tell him, her best friend Elara blocked her path, dangling an identical lab report and whispering that she was also carrying Alistair's child. Elara even smugly admitted she had orchestrated the fake cheating scandal that made Alistair hate Chloe in the first place. When Alistair arrived, Elara threw herself into his arms, faking an attack and a sudden miscarriage. Alistair violently shoved Chloe to the ground, ignoring her desperate confession about her own pregnancy. To protect his mistress, he threatened to bankrupt Chloe's adoptive parents to force her into signing the divorce papers. "You think that some bastard child is going to threaten me?" He then ordered his loyal driver to take her to Widow's Leap and plunge her locked car off the rocky cliff. As the windshield shattered and freezing black water filled her lungs, Chloe curled around her stomach in absolute terror. She couldn't understand how the man she loved so deeply could ruthlessly execute her and their unborn baby just to pave the way for a venomous liar. Three years later, inside the city's most exclusive bridal boutique, renowned couture designer Chloe Shen adjusted her immaculate dress. Looking at her reconstructed face in the mirror, she turned to greet the newly engaged Alistair and Elara with a perfect, chilling smile, her revenge finally beginning.”
