Jilted Wife: The Billionaire's Contract Bride
“Ten years together, three years of marriage. I thought we were the perfect couple, especially after our IVF finally worked and I became pregnant. But an anonymous text shattered everything. It was a photo of my husband, Jereme, passionately kissing my stepsister, Ericka. Through a cracked bedroom door, I heard them laughing. Ericka was pregnant too. Jereme promised her he would divorce me as soon as I delivered "our" baby. Then came the most chilling part. Jereme bragged that he had bribed the clinic to swap his sperm with a "discarded" sample. He called me a mere incubator, refusing to let his precious bloodline run through my body. When I coldly handed him the divorce papers, his fragile ego snapped. In a fit of rage, he shoved me hard against his office wall. As blood pooled around my legs and I begged for help, he just sneered. "Stop faking a miscarriage to get my attention. It's pathetic." Then, he ran off to comfort a crying Ericka, leaving me and my unborn baby to die on the cold floor. Lying in my own blood, my ten years of love turned into pure, icy hatred. I didn't understand how the man I trusted could be so monstrously cruel. But Jereme made one fatal mistake. That "discarded" sperm didn't belong to a nobody. It belonged to Blace Salinas, the most powerful and ruthless billionaire in the city. And when I woke up in the hospital, Blace was standing by my bed, ready to make them pay.”
