From Neglected Wife to Tech Empress

“The spotlight hit Ethan, and the crowd cheered for our AI launch, the culmination of years of *my* groundbreaking work. But my world shattered the instant his eyes, full of an affection he hadn't shown me in years, flickered to his assistant, Chloe, as he credited *her* with cracking *my* core algorithm. That public lie, that possessive look mirroring my deceitful father, was a searing betrayal, instantly extinguishing the future of our unborn child. The applause for *her* stock options felt like a funeral dirge for *my* genius; I walked out, terminating my pregnancy, then served him divorce papers. His hand meeting my face was the final, brutal confirmation of his blindness and my freedom from everything we built. How could one careless look unravel a decade, erase my professional identity, and destroy a family? My unwavering truth compass guided me: I called an old friend, ready to build an ethical AI empire, armed with the intellectual property Ethan thought he owned. Now, as his company collapses, he will finally face the agonizing truth of losing everything he never truly saw.”
