While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

Ethan's POV

I thought I had everything I wanted, everything I desired from this world and never once was it money or success or even power it was the beautiful women I was married to.The women I could stare hours at and never once get bored.I believed she was without a single flaw but like everything one on this earth she contained many flaws.Flaws that I was too blinded by what I thought was love to see and like most people, no matter how many warnings I was given I had to see it to believe it.

We were on vacation for the summer at our home in the country not too far from the valley in California.It was a family tradition that my great great grandfather managed to create when he first began the family wine business in our fields in order to celebrate the years earning's.

Though the day was similar to any other day we were on vacation my father had created a large gathering to celebrate handing over the company key.There were many successful individuals from all over the world some I have not even seen but like my father says a great businessman or women make many allies and little to none enemies.So I understood why he invited them. My wife Diana, my mother, sister Mary and her son Kenan were all there of course.

The tapping of a spoon on a champagne glass by my father brought the rowdy crowd to silence, " Hello everyone we are all gathered here as you know so I could hand over the company key to my son Ethan Scott."The applause began shortly after my father stepped away from the microphone to pick up the box of the key and so I walked up to him."Thank you for sharing this lovely evening with my family."He smiled while handing the box to me and I was quick to accept and then walk back to the table where my family was situated at.

"You know this family would be complete if you and Diana had a child."My mother began and Diana's figure tensed.

Oh, fantastic as always she couldn't leave anything at peace.
