Chapter 1 ‘Nothing’ That Lasts Forever

Nothing lasts forever…
Raelle had engraved this statement not only on the deepest part of her heart but also on her soul. Whether it be anger, hatred, sadness, happiness, or love. None of these emotions could affect you forever. Every emotion tends to wane in the current of time.
And since nothing was believed to last forever, Raelle resolved to be content with ‘Nothing’. Because as long as she felt nothing, these vain emotions couldn’t shake the harmony of her life. Human emotions had always been too difficult to understand for her brain.
She had seen people destroying each other in the name of love, jealousy, hatred. She had seen people stuck in the endless cycle of revenge. All of this was considered counterproductive to her.
Even though she never understood any of it, every nerve, every sinew, every thought of hers was hell-bent on the sole purpose of finding that ‘Nothing’ that would last forever. Because in her opinion, emotions would only make a person impulsive and then people would become slaves to their own emotions.
However, this simple logic was something she couldn’t make her grandfather understand. While her grandfather strongly believed that her lack of emotions was keeping her from enjoying life to the fullest, she didn’t agree. She didn’t believe in things she couldn’t explain with reason; just like emotions that went beyond the logic one’s brain could comprehend.
Nonetheless, she could never bring herself to hurt her grandfather or go against his words. And that was the reason, she was sitting in this cafe with her new blind date.
Seriously, she had even lost the count of how many times she had come to such blind dates. This was supposedly a never-ending cycle. She was tired of it but apparently, her grandfather definitely wasn’t tired of arranging such meetings.
She blinked her black peach blossom eyes at the man sitting before her with a smile plastered on her naturally red lips. Her eyes were charming with rows of thick, long, curly eyelashes that looked like densely packed black feathers of top-quality. Whenever she blinked, they seemed to flutter like butterfly wings — alluringly, making one’s heart itch.
She elegantly picked up the glass of water before her to take a sip. The remnants of water stuck on her soft red lips making them look like rose petals being caressed by the dewdrops.
Unbeknownst to her, each and every gesture of hers was making someone’s heartbeat quicken. Although Mr. Blind date only came here under the pressure of his family, he was now entranced. The girl before him had a beguiling face, her smooth jade-like skin, and her sharp features gave her a tempting vibe.
He really couldn’t bring himself to look away. He opened his mouth to introduce himself, “I’m…” But before he could continue, the girl before him slid a document towards him. His brows furrowed up as he looked at her inquisitively, “This is…?”
Raelle’s lips curled into a beautiful arc as she answered, “I heard Mr. Zhang wants to spread his wings and venture into the field of Augmented and Virtual Reality. However, your family isn’t very supportive of your ambitions.”
Mr. Blind date or Mr. Zhang whatever you’d like to call him, squinted his eyes at her, “Your point is?”
“I’m willing to be the supporter you need to spread your wings and soar high in the sky,” was her carefree response but her tone was very determined. She definitely wasn’t fooling around. Although her lips had a smile playing on them, her eyes left no room for argument.
Something flickered through Mr. Zhang’s eyes as he said, “There is no such thing as free meal… And I don’t think there is anything I can offer Miss Xiang.”
Raelle crossed her one leg over the other as she leaned back in her chair, “I don’t have the habit of making deals that aren’t beneficial to me. As it so happens, there is something you can offer me in return.” She took a brief pause and just as the smile on her face widened, she went on, “You just have to tell my grandfather that we are not compatible with each other.”
Doubt flashed through Mr. Zhang’s eyes or maybe it was disbelief. The girl before his eyes was offering him his biggest dream and only wanted him to say one thing to her grandfather? What game was she playing? He really couldn’t understand.
Seeing his hesitation, Raelle sighed out, “You can read the contract. I definitely won’t go back on my words.”
Mr. Zhang had just picked up the document when in a blink of an eye, someone splashed the glass of orange juice before him onto the face of the girl sitting opposite him. By the time he came back to his senses, he was being pulled out of his chair.
“You shameless little witch! How dare you try to seduce my boyfriend with this bewitching face of yours?!” The woman shrieked like a madwoman. “Just because you’re rich doesn’t mean you can steal my boyfriend from me.”
Unlike what one would expect, Raelle was rather calm in this situation as she took a napkin and dabbed her face. She even looked at this pair of lovers as if she was looking at something very amusing.
But her gaze made Mr. Zhang feel unsettled so he tried to pull the madwoman back saying, “Xinxin, stop causing trouble!”
“I’m causing trouble?” the woman was enraged. “We have been together for years and yet I am not allowed to stop this? What right does she have to come out of nowhere and steal my love just because she has power and money? Are those the only things important in life? Does my love and sacrifices for you amount to nothing?” Tears had trickled down the woman’s supple cheeks as she cried her heart out miserably.
Raelle yawned lazily and stood up at a languid pace. Her eyes settled on this pair of lovers and she spoke in a calm voice, “Ms. Whoever-you-are, you asked a question, let me give you the answer…” Her voice got dangerously low as she continued, “Love and sacrifices, people only use these terms to shackle others. To imprison them in the cage of guilt in the name of love.” She raised her hand and the woman cowered back and hid in her boyfriend’s arms. However, Raelle only raised her hand to snatch the contract documents from Mr. Zhang’s hands as she concluded, “Now, let me prove to you what money and power can do. Trust me, it’ll bring an even magical result than your so-called love and sacrifice.”

La contre-attaque du milliardaire déguisé

Résumé

Ma famille se situait au seuil de pauvreté et n’avait plus aucun moyen de payer ma facture de scolarité. Je devais travailler à temps partiel tous les jours pour joindre les deux bouts et payer mes études. C’est alors que je l’ai rencontrée – la jolie fille de ma classe avec qui tous les garçons rêvaient de sortir. Il était clair pour moi qu’elle était trop bien pour moi. Cependant, j’ai rassemblé tout mon courage et lui ai dit courageusement que j’étais tombé amoureux d’elle. À ma grande surprise, elle a accepté d’être ma petite amie. Elle m’a dit, avec le plus beau sourire que j’aie jamais vu, qu’elle voulait que le premier cadeau que je lui fasse soit le dernier iPhone. Un mois plus tard, mon dur travail a enfin porté ses fruits. J’ai pu acheter ce qu’elle voulait. Mais pendant que j’emballais mon cadeau, je l’ai vue dans les vestiaires en train d’embrasser le capitaine de l’équipe de basket. Puis elle s’est impitoyablement moquée de mes insuffisances et m’a ridiculisé. Pour couronner le tout, le type avec qui elle m’a trompé m’a même frappé au visage. Le désespoir m’a envahi, mais je ne pouvais rien faire d’autre que de m’allonger par terre et de les laisser piétiner ma fierté. Mais soudain, mon père m’a appelé et ma vie a été bouleversée. Il s’avère que je suis le fils d’un milliardaire.

Chapitre 1 Le gémissement à travers la porte

Dans le gymnase d’une université

Trevor Sanderson, en uniforme de basket bleu, a franchi les portes du gymnase.

Lorsqu’il est entré dans le gymnase, il a ramassé les bouteilles plastiques et les canettes de soda vides laissées par la foule qui avait suivi le dernier match.

« Ce serait formidable si l’université organisait un match de basket tous les jours. Je pourrais facilement me faire cinquante dollars en collectant ces bouteilles et canettes. Si je me fais autant d’argent chaque jour, je pourrai offrir un iPhone à Sylvia pour son anniversaire. »

Trevor a levé la tête et a regardé avec enthousiasme le gymnase jonché.

Pendant qu’il collectait des bouteilles et des canettes, un groupe d’étudiants de grande taille est sorti du vestiaire.

Celui qui marchait au milieu du groupe avait des cheveux roux, il s’appelait Bernard Collins et avait une cigarette à la bouche.

Il a ramassé une chaussette et l’a jetée sur Trevor.

Avant même que Trevor ne puisse esquiver, la chaussette a directement atterri sur son visage, et une odeur désagréable a envahi ses narines.

« J’ai demandé à tous les membres de l’équipe de garder leurs vêtements sales pendant une semaine entière pour que tu puisses gagner plus d’argent. Je suis gentil, non ? »

Bernard a fait un signe de la main, et les autres membres de l’équipe ont jeté leur linge sale vers Trevor tout en lui adressant des insultes.

« Espèce de crétin, il vaut mieux le sortir de l’école avant qu’il ne soit trop tard ! »

« Ce type déshonore l’école ! »

« Il ne ramasse pas les ordures, mais il gâche délibérément notre plaisir ! »

« Mauviette ! »

« Je… »

Trevor a retiré la chaussette sale de son visage en rougissant.

Il ne pouvait pas offenser Bernard.

Il était après tout un simple étudiant issu d’une famille pauvre.

Il ne pouvait travailler qu’à temps partiel le week-end et proposer ses services de courses et de devoirs à ses camarades de classe pour gagner de l’argent.

C’était le seul moyen qu’il avait de se permettre d’aller à l’université.

Si Trevor avait le choix, il ne ferait pas affaire avec quelqu’un d’aussi odieux et suffisant comme Bernard.

Mais puisqu’il devait gagner de l’argent pour payer ses études, tout ce qu’il pouvait faire était de ravaler sa fierté et de retenir sa colère.

Il a pris une profonde inspiration, avant de ramasser la chaussette que Bernard avait jetée sue lui, et la lancer dans le seau.

« Cinquante dollars pour la lessive », a-t-il dit.

Bernard a sorti son portefeuille, en a retiré quelques billets, et les a jetés aux pieds de Trevor.

D’un sourire narquois, il a dit : « Voici cinquante-cinq, je veux que tu me fasses une autre course. Je veux que tu récupères un colis à la porte de l’école et que tu l’amènes au vestiaire. C’est pour Dennis Cooper, le leader de l’équipe de basket. »

Après avoir prononcé ces mots, Bernard a fait demi-tour et est parti avec le reste du groupe, tout excité.

Trevor a ramassé l’argent par terre et l’a serré dans son poing.

« Ils sont connards, dommage qu’ils soient des connards riches. »

Après le départ de Bernard et de ses coéquipiers, Trevor a continué à ramasser des bouteilles plastiques et des canettes de soda vides dans le gymnase.

Ayant rempli son sac-poubelle, il s’est rendu au centre de recyclage situé à l’extérieur de l’école pour vendre ce qu’il avait collecté.

Il s’est ensuite rapidement rendu à la porte de l’école pour prendre le colis dont Dennis avait parlé, puis il est retourné au vestiaire.

En chemin, Trevor a soigneusement compté l’argent qu’il venait de gagner aujourd’hui.

Il était fatigué, mais il sentait que cela en valait la peine.

Il était impatient d’économiser suffisamment d’argent pour acheter des cadeaux à sa chère petite amie.

Trevor était sur le point d’ouvrir la porte du vestiaire quand soudain le gémissement d’une femme l’a arrêté dans son élan.

« Quoi ? Pourquoi cette voix m’est-elle si familière ? »

La femme de l’autre côté de la porte a poussé un cri de joie.

Le visage de Trevor est devenu rouge et son cœur a commencé à battre contre sa cage thoracique.

Il a soudain réalisé avec horreur que la voix était si semblable à celle de sa petite amie Sylvia Farrows.

« Oh, Dennis, j’adore quand tu me touches les seins comme ça. Oui, comme ça. Ne t’arrête pas. »

« Pourquoi nous précipiter, Sylvia ? Hey, je t’ai acheté de la lingerie sexy aujourd’hui. Enfile-la pour qu’on s’amuse encore plus. »

Quand Trevor a entendu leur conversation, il ne pouvait plus le nier.

« Sylvia ? Que fais-tu ? »

Le sang de Trevor bouillonnait quand il a ouvert la porte d’un coup de pied.

Il était abasourdi et terrifié par ce qu’il a vu.

Chapitre 1 La tromper

« Je me suis donnée à toi. Pourquoi ne romps-tu pas avec Janet ? », a demandé la femme d’une voix séduisante et essoufflée. Elle était à moitié nue et se tenait au-dessus d’un homme.

« Ne mentionne pas son nom quand on est au lit. » L’homme était tellement excité qu’il a serré les seins de la femme et a gémi de plaisir.

La femme avait l’air mécontente car elle n’avait pas obtenu la réponse qu’elle voulait. « Pas question ! Elle est une fille adoptive, même notre chien occupe une place plus importante qu’elle dans notre famille. Qu’est-ce qu’elle a de si bien ? »

L’homme est resté silencieux. Il a saisi la taille de la femme et a poussé plus fort, ce qui a fait crier cette dernière.

Janet Lind se tenait devant la porte, écoutant tout ce qui se passait dans la pièce. Ses yeux fatigués sont devenus froids lorsqu’elle a compris la situation.

Elle venait de rentrer de l’hôpital.

Hannah, la femme de chambre qui avait élevé Janet depuis son enfance, avait été diagnostiquée il y a trois mois d’une cirrhose du foie avancée. La femme avait besoin d’une greffe de foie immédiatement. Janet devait rassembler l’argent pour payer les frais médicaux.

Pour rendre sa situation encore plus compliquée, son petit ami l’a trompée avec sa sœur. Janet avait l’impression que sa vie tombait en morceaux.

« Tu m’as entendue ? Tu dois me donner ta décision ce soir. C’est elle ou moi. À toi de choisir », a dit Jocelyn Lind en frappant sur la poitrine de Steve Carter, désespérée d’entendre sa réponse.

Janet a ouvert la porte d’un coup de pied et a jeté un regard furieux au couple. « Laisse-moi t’épargner cette peine. Ce n’est qu’un homme. Tu peux l’avoir si tu veux. »

Bien que Janet ait l’air nonchalante, elle a eu le cœur brisé en voyant son petit ami la tromper avec sa sœur.

Steve était le camarade de classe de Janet à l’université. C’était un bel homme issu d’une famille aisée. Il avait couru après Janet pendant trois ans.

Il lui avait à nouveau avoué son amour juste avant leur remise de diplôme.

C’était sur la cour de récréation de leur université. De nombreuses personnes étaient présentes, et presque tous les élèves avaient assisté à la scène romantique. Janet avait finalement accepté d’être sa petite amie.

La douleur de la trahison l’a écrasée. En regardant les deux personnes en face d’elle, Janet a serré les poings, ses ongles s’enfonçant dans sa chair.

Steve s’est empressé de repousser Jocelyn, d’enfiler son pantalon et de sortir du lit.

Jocelyn a failli tomber. Les mots de Janet ont enflammé sa colère.

Elle avait fait beaucoup d’efforts pour sortir avec un homme riche et beau comme Steve.

Janet avait gagné son cœur sans rien faire, ce qui rendait Jocelyn furieuse.

Janet n’était qu’une fille adoptive après tout.

« Mais qu’est-ce que tu racontes ? Tu parles comme si tu avais largué Steve. C’est Steve qui t’a larguée, salope ! », a ricané Jocelyn en tirant la couette plus près de son corps. Puis, elle a regardé Steve et lui a demandé : « Steve, qu’est-ce que tu viens de me dire ? Dis-le à Janet ! »

Steve avait couché avec Jocelyn par pure impulsion. La femme l’avait séduit, et il a perdu le contrôle de lui-même.

Il s’est agenouillé et a attrapé le poignet de Janet. « Janet, s’il te plaît, pardonne-moi. Je ne savais pas à quoi je pensais. »

Malgré les larmes qui remplissaient ses yeux, Janet le regardait avec dégoût. Une fois que Janet a décidé de quelque chose, personne ne pouvait lui faire changer d’avis.

Elle a retiré sa main de la prise de Steve. « Je suis désolée, Steve. Je ne veux rien qui soit corrompu par Jocelyn. Vous allez parfaitement ensemble. C’est fini entre nous. »

Jocelyn est décontenancée. Steve était au bord de la crise, mais il n’y avait pas la moindre trace de tristesse sur le visage de Janet. La colère montait dans ses veines parce qu’elle n’avait pas obtenu ce qu’elle voulait.

Janet n’a pas eu le temps de leur parler. Jocelyn avait toujours été en compétition avec elle depuis qu’elles étaient enfants et elle aimait prendre ce qui appartenait à Janet. C’était son habitude d’arracher les jouets de Janet. Maintenant qu’elles avaient grandi, elle a aussi arraché son petit ami.

Janet était habituée à ça. Elle était seulement préoccupée par les frais médicaux d’Hannah à ce moment.

Au moment où elle s’apprêtait à partir, elle a entendu le claquement des pas dans le couloir.

« Il se fait tard dans la nuit. C’est quoi tout ce bruit ? »

Les parents adoptifs de Janet, Bernie Lind et Fiona Duncan, se sont précipités après avoir entendu le vacarme.

Bernie est entré le premier dans la pièce. Ses yeux se sont élargis avec horreur lorsqu’il a vu sa fille assise sur le lit, presque nue, à l’exception de la couette qui l’enveloppait. « Que diable fais-tu ? Tu vas bientôt te marier. Que fais-tu avec un autre homme ? », a-t-il hurlé.

Jocelyn s’est serrée contre elle et a regardé Bernie avec des yeux enflammés. Elle a grincé des dents pour refouler sa rage.

Les familles Lester et Lind s’étaient mises d’accord pour que leurs enfants se marient une fois adultes. Son fiancé était un enfant illégitime, et la famille Lester l’avait chassé de la maison il y a de cela bien longtemps. Il était pauvre et n’avait même pas un travail décent. C’était juste un flemmard qui perdait son temps à ne rien faire. Jocelyn ne voulait pas se marier avec lui.

Elle avait le sentiment qu’elle méritait quelqu’un de mieux que lui.

« Je suis enceinte ! », a déclaré Jocelyn en pointant Steve du doigt. « Je suis enceinte de lui. Donc je ne peux pas épouser quelqu’un d’autre. Tu ferais mieux d’annuler le mariage. »

Steve était stupéfait. Il n’avait couché avec Jocelyn que quelques fois. Alors comment pouvait-elle tomber enceinte ?

« Quelle absurdité ! Tu dois te marier dans la famille Lester ! » Bernie était fou de rage. Il avait envie de gifler Jocelyn pour avoir agi aussi bêtement.

Le mariage était, en effet, une question de prestige pour lui. Que pourrait-il répondre à la famille Lester si elle lui demandait la raison de l’annulation du mariage ?

Fiona se trouvait, de manière protectrice, devant sa fille. Elle était protectrice envers Jocelyn et la grondait rarement. Son mari était furieux, mais elle ne pouvait pas supporter de le voir crier sur Jocelyn.

« Bernie, pourquoi es-tu en colère contre Jocelyn ? », a crié Fiona. « Janet est aussi une fille de la famille Lind. Elle peut aussi se marier dans la famille Lester. »

Bernie et Fiona n’avaient pas eu d’enfant pendant les premières années de leur mariage. À cause de la pression des aînés de la famille Lind, ils avaient dû adopter Janet. Bien des années plus tard, Fiona était finalement tombée enceinte et avait donné naissance à Jocelyn.

Cette épreuve l’a fait haïr encore plus Janet. L’existence de Janet était pour elle la preuve de son infertilité. La simple vue de sa fille adoptive irritait Fiona.

Après avoir donné naissance à Jocelyn, Fiona est devenue partiale envers sa fille et a méprisé Janet.

Avec le temps, Janet est devenue meilleure que sa fille dans tous les domaines. Cela a semblé intensifier encore plus sa haine pour Janet.

Les mots de Fiona ont mis Janet en colère. « Tu avais accepté de faire épouser Jocelyn à la famille Lester, pas moi », a-t-elle rugi. « Pourquoi planifies-tu de me marier juste parce que ta douce fille s’est tapée quelqu’un ? »

« Nous t’avons élevée toutes ces années. Il est temps pour toi de nous rendre la pareille, Janet », a lancé Fiona à voix basse, les yeux étincelants de ruse. « Tu ne veux pas que cette femme de chambre se fasse opérer ? Nous paierons les frais médicaux à condition que tu te maries à la famille Lester à la place de Jocelyn. »

Un sourire complaisant s’est dessiné sur le visage de Jocelyn. Elle trouvait que Janet, une orpheline adoptée, et le fils illégitime de la famille Lester seraient une alliance bien assortie.

Janet a serré les dents à cause des mots de Fiona qui l’ont rendue furieuse. Mais les mots du docteur lui ont traversé l’esprit. Hannah n’avait plus beaucoup de temps.

Janet était fraîchement diplômée et n’avait pas les moyens de payer le traitement d’Hannah.

Bien que Bernie et Fiona aient adopté Janet, ils ne lui avaient jamais vraiment accordé d’importance. Hannah, la femme de ménage de la famille Lind, était celle qui a élevé Janet. Hannah était un peu comme la grand-mère que Janet n’a jamais eue. Elle refusait de la laisser seule dans une situation désespérée.

Se rendant compte de son hésitation, Fiona s’est approchée de Janet. « Tu devras épouser quelqu’un plus tard. Et si tu nous aidais en épousant le fils de la famille Lester ? Je te donnerai l’argent dès que tu seras mariée. »

Les pieds de Janet tremblaient tandis que tout le monde dans la pièce la fixait. Elle avait absolument besoin d’argent pour payer les frais médicaux d’Hannah.

Finalement, des larmes ont coulé sur ses joues. Elle a baissé la tête et a répondu d’une voix basse. « D’accord, je vais l’épouser. »

Publishing platformMoboReader

Melissa could tolerate being deceived and humiliated, but being framed was a different story.

Three years of marriage was less important in her husband’s eyes than a teardrop from his other woman, Arielle.

Finally, on a rainy day, she was ruthlessly abandoned.

Five years later, Melissa showed up with her adorable twins. She became world-famous in the medical field. That was when her ex-husband, Everett, came crawling back, asking her to help cure Arielle…

“Hey, old man, if you want to talk to my Mommy, you have to pass my test first.” Melissa’s young son, Merrick, raised his chin proudly.

‘Old man?’ Everett checked himself carefully. Did he look that old?

“Daddy, you really are very old…” Lindsey, Merrick’s twin sister, said with a pout.

Chapter 1 Facade

The bedroom was dimly lit, emanating a depressing aura. Melissa Sherman fell on the floor, clutching her stomach.

The pregnancy caused her discomfort. The stomach cramps were unbearable. Her face was pale as paper. She was drenched in a cold sweat.

Just then, the bedroom door flew open, and a man came into her sight.

Melissa reached out her hand, asking for help. “Honey, help me…”

However, a shiver ran down her spine when she met the man’s cold, distant gaze.

“Melissa, is this what you want?” The man’s voice dripped with disgust. “You played tricks and made me sleep with you. Do you think that will make me fall in love with you?”

Melissa and Everett Mayfield were engaged since childhood. Eventually, the two got married under their parents’ arrangement. However, Everett didn’t like her.

They were married for three years, but everyone knew her husband had no feelings for her, and she was just the nominal Mrs. Mayfield—nothing more than that. Therefore, everyone ridiculed her for three years.

Two months ago, the Mayfield Group held a banquet, and Melissa attended it as Everett’s wife. Unexpectedly, she and Everett had sex that night.

Regardless of how much she explained, Everett thought it was her plot.

Melissa frantically shook her head. “No, it wasn’t me. I was drunk that day. I don’t know what happened… Please trust me…”

Melissa felt a piercing pain in her stomach. She stretched out her hand and held Everett’s trousers in desperation. “My stomach hurts. Can you please take me to the hospital?”

“God, are you still acting?”

Everett’s face turned grim when he heard the word “hospital”. “Do you think you can get away with pushing Arielle downstairs and causing her miscarriage by pretending this way?”

His words were like a bolt from the blue. Melissa’s eyes widened in horror.

She couldn’t believe Arielle Sherman was pregnant. That meant the baby’s father was…

Everett’s jaw tightened. The dim light made him look regal and majestic.

He squatted down and grabbed Melissa’s throat. “Melissa Sherman, you are the most disgusting woman I have ever known!” he hissed, stressing every word.

Melissa could barely breathe. She patted his hand and struggled to catch her breath. “Let… Let go of me…”

Tears streaked down her cheeks. “Honey, I didn’t push her. She fell down herself. In fact, I’m also… I’m… I’m pregnant too… It is our baby…”

Everett was in a daze for a moment. Soon, he snapped out of his thoughts and glared at her.

No way! After that night, he had personally seen Melissa take contraceptives. It was impossible for her to get pregnant.

He assumed she was lying to him again.

“Even if you are really pregnant, do you think…” Everett sneered and shot her a contemptuous look. His voice dripped with sarcasm as he continued, “Do you think I’d want that bastard in your belly?”

Melissa was stunned. She looked up at him in disbelief. The blood in her body froze.

Before she could react, Everett threw her on the floor and ordered, “Throw this woman out! She is no longer a part of our family and can’t be in Andeport anymore.”

The bodyguards immediately grabbed Melissa and pulled her to her feet. It was raining cats and dogs, but the guards showed no mercy. They threw her out of the villa.

Melissa was wearing loose pajamas. The cold wind and rain intensified the pain in her stomach.

She braced herself from the howling winds and looked up at the gigantic villa before her.

The man she had loved with all her heart all these years had literally kicked her out of his life. She had ended up on the streets.

Chapter 1 Repaying Cruelty With Kindness (Part One)

It was a late autumn morning. As the dawn chased the dark shadows, the sun added some warmth to the chilly air.

An oil lamp in the cellar of Luo’s House lit up. A young man named Zen Luo sat upright in front of a table, shading most of the light of the oil lamp. Quietly he pulled out a battered thread-bound book.

Zen Luo was a lean, average-looking young man who had just turned 17.

“It has taken me a month to finish Heavenly Principles. Its arguments are all very well, but, what I find most revolting are those four words, repaying cruelty with kindness,” Zen Luo whispered as he stared at the bean-sized flame of the oil lamp.

Melancholy was written all over his face.

“Had my father not been so kind-hearted as to believe those four words, I, the direct descendant of my Clan, would not have ended up like this, and father would still be alive…”

The sudden noise of the cellar door being unlocked interrupted his flow of thoughts. Zen Luo replaced the melancholy he was feeling with a solemn expression. He promptly blew out the oil lamp and covered himself with the shabby cotton quilt.

The door of the cellar flew open and footsteps began drawing close. The man in charge stepped forward and stomped his foot on Zen Luo’s bed before shrieking at him, “Still in bed? Dreaming about being the young master of the Luo Clan? Get the fuck up!”

The man was a steward in the Luo Clan. He looked rather wretched. He had a wart on his forehead that often invoked disgust from people.

Zen Luo sat up and rubbed his eyes.

The steward rolled his eyes, criticized Zen, and then waved his hand. Several men surrounded Zen and forcibly put a thick leather armor and shackles on him.

After they were done, Zen Luo followed the servants as they walked out of the cellar and toward Luo’s Martial Arts Hall.

The Martial Arts Hall was an open area. It was a place where the children of the Luo Clan would come for practice.

In the middle of the Martial Arts Hall, dozens of children from the Luo Clan practiced martial arts under the guidance of a teacher. They were all dressed alike, in gray robes.

They bawled and their boxes whirred again and again.

In order to win a position in the family, every child needed to study diligently and practice hard. These children looked like they were more than 10 years of age.

On the other side of the Martial Arts Hall stood over a dozen men who were dressed like Zen Luo, in leather armor and shackles. These men were dejected, bleeding, and wounded all over their bodies.

Zen Luo was escorted into the Martial Arts Hall. The guard placed him amongst the injured men.

Since most of these men had been bought by the Luo Clan from local prisons, they were now the slaves of the Luo Clan. These slaves played the roles of live targets for the Luo Clan children for the purpose of training and testing their own strength.

Zen Luo was not a death row inmate and thus, was not bought by the family. He was the eldest child in the eldest branch of the Luo Clan. The rest of the Clan used to call him the young master. He was once noble, and his peers would bow and salute him with respect. Even the family elders were polite to him.

However, something disastrous happened in C County two years ago. Zen Luo’s father, the head of the Luo Clan, had been poisoned by his brother. He died on the spot.

Immediately after, the eldest branch of the Luo Clan was set up by the other three branches. They framed a case against Zen Luo’s father. According to their accusations, Zen’s father was a rebel. The family didn’t survive the allegations, and the eldest branch became no longer powerful.

Zen Luo, the former young master, was also labeled a rebel and became a slave of the Luo Clan. He became a tool, and was beaten up at the whim of the other children in the Luo Clan as part of their martial arts practice.

Zen Luo had lived like this for two years. He had lost count of how many fists and insults he had endured during this time.

“Today’s boxing practice is over. You can select a slave for the next practice now! Hitting the human body allows you to fully understand actual combat skills, get familiar with the weaknesses of the human body, and the body structure!”

After the teacher had finished speaking, the children started selecting their slaves. Soon, the sounds of slaves begging and pleading for mercy could be heard in the Hall. The Luo children did not treat slaves as humans. They were trained to hit the flesh without mercy.

Many of them tried to find Zen Luo. The act of beating up a former young master with as much aggression as they could muster gave them a greater sense of accomplishment!

When being used as a sandbag, Zen Luo protected vital parts of his body with calmness. Since it had been two years, he was now quite used to it.

Before long, a few people came through the entrance of the Martial Arts Hall. A young man who was dressed finely led this group of newcomers.

“The young master is coming!”

“Young master, your practice has finally come to a halt. You seem to feel refreshed in spirit. You must have progressed greatly in your ability and power!”

“Our young master is intelligent. He is the talent of our Luo Clan. He must have grown stronger and has surely entered the higher level of bone refining.”

The children who noticed the young master entering stopped their practice and began patronizing. Some even walked up to the young master as they generously threw praises his way. It was obvious that they all wanted to flatter the young master.

Zen Luo’s eyes fell on the young man, and his imperceptible anger rose quietly. The young teenager being called the young master by the Luo children, was Perrin Luo. He was the oldest son in the second branch of the Luo Clan. He was the same age as Zen Luo.

Zen Luo was relegated to slavery and Perrin Luo replaced Zen as the young master of the Luo Clan.

Zen Luo had heard that Perrin Luo had been staying in a secluded place to practice some time ago. He had disappeared for a long time. It seemed as though he had improved a lot after the practice.

Perrin Luo was very sensitive and he turned to look at Zen Luo when he became aware of his cousin’s hate-filled glare. He smirked as he walked straight toward Zen Luo and said,” Zen Luo, I practiced for a long time. I didn’t expect to see you alive when I returned.”

“Thanks for caring about me. I’m fucking alive.” Zen Luo answered in a muffled voice.

“How dare you! What kind of tone is that? How dare you speak this way to the young master?”

“You are just a slave here, kneel! Fall to the ground quickly and apologize to our young master or you will regret being alive.”

Several children of the Luo Clan shouted as though Zen Luo had done something very unforgivable to them.

Zen Luo looked around indifferently. These people used to behave like little dogs in front of him in the past. They were too scared to even breathe in his presence when he was the young master. Once he lost power, their attitudes changed. It had been so sudden. Now, they were Perrin Luo’s dogs.

Perrin Luo waved his hand to stop the excited Luo children from defending him. He spoke to Zen Luo with a triumphant smile,” Zen Luo, do you know why I left for the practice?”

Zen Luo did not speak. He just looked at Perrin Luo expressionlessly.

She had thought that her husband of three years would come to see her, but unexpectedly, he strode into the ward next to hers to take care of another woman! And as if that wasn’t bad enough, he even threatened to put her in jail for that woman’s sake!

“You gave me five hundred million as compensation, right? Now, I’m exchanging it for a slap on her face.” Claire looked at her husband, Darren, coldly. “Let’s get divorced.”

At that moment, Claire regretted wasting three precious years trying to win Darren’s heart. It was time to end all of it.

Chapter 1 A Bolt From The Blue

A searing pain shot through her arm. It was unbearable.

Claire Williams licked her chapped lips and tried to open her eyes but couldn’t.

Her eyelids felt hot and heavy. She heard a muffled voice as she stirred on the bed. Sometimes the voice sounded loud and clear and at times it softened, confusing her.

“Gosh, poor thing! The girl’s family refused to give her anesthesia. I wonder why they hate her so much.”

“Yes. She has thirty stitches on her arm. I feel the pain just by looking at it.”

After a long while, Claire slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying in a hospital bed. Her eyes widened in horror when she saw the IV drip pinching her skin. She soon realized what had happened.

Sierra Brooks had asked her to go shopping with her. But she had brought her only to carry the shopping bags for her.

Sierra often ordered Claire to do her chores, and the latter always obeyed her. That was the case even now.

On the way back, Sierra drove the car and Claire was sitting in the back seat. The next moment, the car crashed.

The car accident flashed in her mind. Claire’s heart was drumming in her chest. She broke into a cold sweat. The fear wracked her nerves.

Her body trembled. She frantically looked around and realized no one else was in the ward.

Just as she was about to sit up, she heard sound of footsteps outside the ward.

Claire turned around and saw a tall figure. Her heart fluttered as she realized it was the person whom she had missed a lot.

“Darren!” she cried with joy.

Darren Sampson was her husband. They had been married for three years. She liked him even though they barely saw each other.

Claire thought he had come to visit her after knowing about the car accident. She knew it. He cared about her.

But the next second, the man hurried away, not bothering to even look at her.

Claire’s smile vanished in an instant.

She immediately pulled the needle out of her arm and ran after him.

“Darren…”

Thinking he hadn’t heard her, Claire shouted his name and ran after him all the way to the next ward.

However, she stopped short the next moment.

Sierra, the woman who always pretended to be weak in front of Darren, was lying on the bed. Her left wrist was wrapped with gauze; tears streamed down her face. Her eyes were puffy and bloodshot; she looked pitiful.

Darren’s elder sister, Bonita Sampson, and his mother Elora Sampson were also present in the ward. The three of them surrounded Sierra and looked after her, ignoring Claire.

Claire was visibly startled when she saw them.

She had stupidly believed Darren was here to visit her.

The four of them unanimously turned to look at Claire. Her well-dressed mother-in-law stood up first. “Claire, you’re just in time,” she said haughtily. “Turn yourself in to the police and tell them you caused the accident.”

“That’s right. Take the blame for Sierra,” Bonita chimed in.

“What?” Claire recoiled in shock.

Anger surged through her veins.

She took a deep breath and pointed at Sierra. “She hit someone! She caused the accident! Why should I take the blame?”

The Sampson family always treated her as a maid, and she had been used to it.

Sierra always made things difficult for Claire by joining hands with the Sampson family.

However, Claire endured all the pain and suffering to retain her marriage with Darren. After all, she had married into the Sampson family to win Darren’s heart.

But these people had crossed all their limits today. She couldn’t believe they would ask her to take the blame for the pretentious woman.

“I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I didn’t expect to cause such an accident.” Sierra covered her face and burst into tears. “I’m willing to go to jail to atone for my sins. If the victim’s family members don’t forgive me, I’m ready to pay for it with my life. But…”

She sniffed loudly and stroked her belly. “I… I’m pregnant with Darren’s child,” she said, looking at him tenderly. “I can’t let my child suffer because of me.”

Claire’s heart leaped to her throat.

Sierra’s words were like a bolt from the blue.

Claire couldn’t believe it. How could she be pregnant with Darren’s child?

Unexpectedly, her comatose husband regained consciousness on the day after their wedding!

Theodore opened his eyes and looked at her coldly. “Who are you?”

“I’m your … wife,” Ariana answered in a trance.

Hearing this, Theodore looked extremely upset.

Chapter 1 The Betrayal

Ariana Edwards was sitting in a hotel room wearing a white wedding dress and delicate makeup. It was the day of her wedding, but the groom was nowhere to be found.

In her hands were two documents. One was the consent form for artificial insemination, and the other was a non-disclosure agreement. The first document showed that the insemination was going to take place tomorrow. The Anderson family’s lawyer was waiting for Ariana to sign the documents after handing them to her a moment ago.

The sperm that was going to be inseminated into Ariana belonged to Theodore Anderson, her groom and the eldest son of the Anderson family.

Their wedding was going to be the wedding of the century. However, the groom was involved in a ghastly car accident three months ago. It was said that he didn’t have much time left.

“Miss Edwards, please, you have to sign them immediately,” the lawyer urged Ariana, impatience written all over his face.

The Anderson family was one of the most powerful families in this city. The Andersons valued the continuation of their lineage as much as their wealth. Theodore was a childless bachelor before the accident, so his father, Darian, took it upon himself to get his son a wife. He had it all planned out. The sperm that Theodore froze years ago was going to be inseminated into the new bride’s womb before he died.

Ariana’s eyebrows furrowed as she looked at the documents. A glint of imperceptible panic was in her eyes.

“I’m sorry. I need to read all the clauses thoroughly. Can I have some time alone?”

The lawyer frowned slightly before he nodded and left.

As soon as the door was shut, Ariana put down the documents and called her boyfriend.

Yes, she had a boyfriend. But it was top secret.

Her boyfriend happened to be Jasper Anderson, the second son of Darian and Theodore’s half-brother.

He was in on the whole thing. In fact, the conspiracy was his idea!

A month ago, Ariana’s father passed away after a brief illness. Her stepmother, Glenda Edwards, took over all the properties and drove her out of the house. She left Ariana penniless and even collected all that belonged to her late mother.

Ariana was down in the dumps. It was at this time that her boyfriend, Jasper, came up with a plan. He asked her to marry Theodore and sabotage the artificial insemination operation when it was time. Jasper wanted to be the only inheritor of his family’s wealth once his half-brother died.

He promised to marry Ariana. To sweeten the deal, he also vowed to help her take back her mother’s belongings from the wicked Glenda.

It had taken Jasper a great deal of persuasion to get Ariana to agree. But now, she was starting to have second thoughts. Ariana’s conscience was already pricking her. She didn’t think she could go through with the plan.

Jasper didn’t pick up even after many rings. This made Ariana more anxious. She paced back and forth in the room. Out of desperation, she sneaked out to look for Jasper.

Ariana’s heart was in her mouth as she walked down the corridor. She feared that she might bump into someone who knew her in the elevator, so she took off her heels and headed toward the stairs.

Just as she arrived in front of the last suite at the end of the corridor, she halted in her tracks.

The door of this suite was slightly ajar. A familiar giggle came from inside.

“Oh, don’t stop, Jasper. Stay with me for a little longer. After all, Ariana doesn’t have time for you now.”

Ariana’s heart sank. Her legs were as heavy as lead at this time. However, she slowly walked closer and looked through the crack of the door.

A young man and woman were lying half-naked on the sofa. The woman who was twisting her body on the man was none other than Ariana’s stepsister, Brielle. And the man was Jasper!

“Baby, you know I’d love to stay with you, but I can’t now. I’m afraid Ariana would back out of the plan and run away. I need to keep an eye on her,” Jasper said with a grunt, trying to push Brielle away.

Brielle didn’t take no for an answer. She lowered her head and gave him a hot kiss. “You don’t have to worry. That bitch won’t run away. She is always obedient to you. Remember that we still have her mother’s belongings. She would do anything for those.”

“Hmm. You have a point there.” With these words, Jasper lay back on the sofa. He wrapped one hand around Brielle’s waist and slid the other under her dress. “Ha-ha! She has no one to rely on since her father is dead. She has no choice but to do my bidding.”

“Things wouldn’t have been this smoothly if you hadn’t tampered with her father’s medicine,” Brielle said with a chuckle. As soon as Jasper’s hand slid through her underwear, she moaned. Her body trembled and melted in his arms. “My silly sister thinks you will marry her after everything is said and done. She has no idea that you killed her father. You are a bad boy, Jasper.”

“Isn’t that why you love me?” Jasper suddenly turned over and pressed Brielle under his body while kissing her. “Not to worry, you will be my bride when everything is over. I only have eyes for you. For now, let me show you how bad I can be…”

The next second, their voices trailed off and were replaced with pleasurable moans.

Ariana’s legs turned to jelly. She staggered back and held the wall for support.

Her beloved Jasper was a betrayer! It dawned on Ariana that his love and promises were all lies! He even killed her father!

Tears suddenly streamed down her cheeks. A painful lump went up her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Ariana clenched her wedding gown tightly. She gritted her teeth in hatred as she listened to the moans coming from the suite.

It turned out that these two were using her as a pawn to carry out their real plan. Now that she found out about it, she decided to work against them.

Ariana wiped her tears and put on her heels again. With her head held up high, she walked back to her room. She took the documents and signed them without hesitation.

She decided to marry Theodore for real and work against Brielle and Jasper secretly. Those two were in for disappointment now that she was one step ahead of them.

*

At night, the Anderson family’s residence was brightly lit.

Ariana was sent to Theodore’s room as soon as the wedding was over.

This was the first time she was meeting her so-called husband.

According to Jasper, Theodore was so bad-tempered and evil that even Lucifer would give up his throne in hell for him. Jasper had described his half-brother using all the bad words he could think of. He also said that Theodore was as ugly as an ogre.

As a result, Ariana expected to see a hideous man lying on the bed. But her jaw dropped when she saw his face. He was actually good-looking. Even though he was in a coma, the air of dignity and power clung to him.

Ariana’s eyes widened in awe as she studied Theodore’s chiseled features.

Jasper was such a liar! She regretted believing the words that came out of that betrayer’s mouth.

While she was lost in thought, the door was kicked open from the outside. Jasper swaggered in with a bottle in his hand. He belched and said out loud, “Hey, Aria! I’m sorry I missed your call earlier. I was too busy.”

Ariana knew that she had to play her cards right if she wanted to come out victorious. So, she hid her real emotions. “It’s okay. I understand.”

Jasper took a big gulp from the bottle of wine and then smiled confidently. “I knew you would understand. After all, you love me so much.”

A spark of fury shone in Ariana’s eyes for a split second. Clenching her fists, she said, “It’s late. You should leave now. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

Without uttering a word, Jasper locked the door and then walked to Ariana slowly.

She stepped back warily. “Jasper, what are you doing?”

“The wedding night shouldn’t go to waste. Let’s make love.”

With a mischievous smile on his face, Jasper lunged forward.

It took Ariana by surprise that Jasper was so shameless and bold that he wanted to have sex with her in the presence of his unconscious half-brother. He was nuts!

When Jasper moved closer again, she pushed him away and muttered, “Sober up, Jasper. Don’t forget the plan.”

Jasper didn’t stop. “I have changed my mind. You need to conceive my child before the insemination. That way, my child will become the heir and we can inherit everything.”

Ariana was disgusted by him. She was about to go for broke by knocking him down.

Just as she raised her hand to strike him, she saw that Jasper’s attention was on something else. He was looking behind her with his eyes widened as if he just saw a ghost.

“Theo… Theodore…”

The Supreme Trillionaire novel by Neilla Steedly

The Supreme Trillionaire

Summary

I grew up in a poor family. My foster mother worked tirelessly as a maid to support me.

In order to climb out of poverty, I studied hard and got into a prestigious university.

But not long after, my foster mother fell seriously ill and quickly racked up two hundred thousand dollars in medical expenses.

I tried to borrow money, but instead, I only received humiliation and abuse.

I hated my life. Why was I so incompetent?

When I was at my most desperate point, I suddenly received a text message from the bank.

“Mr. Larson, you’ve received $1,000,000,000 in your account.”

I was dumbfounded. A billion dollars? It had to be a scam!

But then suddenly, a strange man called me.

“Mathews, do you want to know how your biological mother died?

Spend a billion dollars within the month, and I’ll tell you everything!”

read now

Chapter 1 Why Am I Born Poor?

The corridor of the hospital was bustling. Many doctors and nurses came and went, attending to their patients’ needs.

Mathews Larson squatted on the floor, leaning against the cold wall. His sobs echoed through the corridor.

The doctor’s words still lingered in his mind, loud and clear. “Your mother has kidney failure, and she needs to undergo an operation immediately. You need to prepare at least one hundred thousand dollars for the operation. If we don’t do it soon, I’m afraid she can only live for a month at most.”

These words were like a knife piercing through the deepest part of Mathews’ heart.

When he was ten, Mathews was abducted and sold by human traffickers. Later, he was able to escape. However, he was just a kid, wandering on the street and having no way to support himself. It was Rosa Astley who found, saved and adopted him.

When he escaped, he had an accident and hit his head. As a result, he lost his memory. And he was still very young, so he couldn’t remember anything about his family, even his biological parents.

Since then, Rosa had been his only family.

Rosa only finished junior high school, so she made a living by working as a servant. But she worked very hard to support Mathews.

Mathews dreamed of changing his fate and giving Rosa a better and happy life, so he studied hard and did his best to get into Nouis University. He thought everything was finally getting better, but Rosa suddenly suffered from kidney failure and had to undergo a kidney transplant.

“No, I can’t let Mom suffer like this. I must find a way to raise one hundred thousand dollars.”

Mathews wiped away his tears, gritted his teeth, and stood up.

One hundred thousand dollars was like an insurmountable mountain, but he must do this.

He walked into the ward and looked at Rosa on the bed. She was in a coma, and tubes were attached all over her body.

There was only one thought in Mathews’ mind now. He had to save Rosa, who had been a very good mother to him, at all costs.

He tucked her in and walked out of the ward.

While in the corridor, he took out his phone with his trembling hand and dialed a number. “Mrs. Coleman, my mother is seriously ill, and she is in the hospital now. I want to borrow one hundred thousand dollars from you. But I will definitely pay it back in the future.”

On the other end of the line, Patty Coleman shouted angrily, “What did you say? One hundred thousand dollars? How dare you make such a request! Your mother is just a servant. How can her life be worth one hundred thousand dollars?”

Patty was Debby Coleman’s mother, and the latter was Mathews’ fiancee. The Coleman family ran a catering company with more than ten million dollars in assets. Rosa had been a servant of the Coleman family for ten years.

It was understandable if Patty didn’t want to lend him money since Rosa was just their maid. But did she really have to say such harsh words?

People would have feelings for a dog they had raised for ten years, let alone a woman working for them for that long.

Mathews gritted his teeth fiercely to suppress his anger. Then he said humbly, “Mrs. Coleman, I beg you. Even if I’m still studying, I will work hard to pay you back.”

Patty sneered, “You? A loser like you? How long will it take for you to earn one hundred thousand dollars by doing part-time jobs? By the way, you must break off your engagement with Debby within this month. Don’t wait until your mother dies. Otherwise, people will say that the Coleman family is inhuman.”

After saying this, she hung up the phone without giving Mathews any chance to retort.

At this time, the heart rate monitor next to Rosa’s hospital bed alarmed rapidly. The nurses and doctors rushed in and pushed her into the emergency room.

Upon seeing this scene, Mathews felt like he had lost the most important thing in his life. He hurriedly followed them, but he could only wait anxiously outside the emergency room.

Ten minutes later, the doctor walked out of the emergency room and approached Mathews. “The patient’s condition is getting worse. This time, we have managed to revive her and she is fine now. But if we can’t do the operation before five o’clock this afternoon, you can start preparing for her funeral.”

Mathews felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and his limbs turned cold. Then a painful and unspeakable emotion surged in his heart.

Just now, the person closest to him almost left the world, but there was nothing he could do.

He felt he was such a loser.

Mathews slammed his fist against the wall, and his knuckle bled at once.

He roared, “Why don’t I have money? Why am I born poor?”

Chapter 1 Let’s Divorce

The doctor looked at Caroline Harper with a smile and said, “Miss Harper, congratulations! You are two months pregnant.”

Caroline was surprised to hear this. She took the test result from the doctor and looked at it carefully. Was she really pregnant?

After confirming it, she left the doctor’s office joyfully. She was so happy that when she got to the door, she took out her phone and made a phone call.

“What’s up?” As soon as her call was connected, a man’s deep voice sounded from the other end of the line.

Caroline called Damian Mayson, her husband. When she heard his cold voice, she felt a little sad. But when she thought of the good news that she was pregnant, she became happy again.

She was about to say something, but she hesitated for a while. In the end, she just said, “Are you coming back tonight? I have something to tell you.”

Caroline thought she’d better tell him the news in person later.

“I’m not sure.”

After saying this, Damian hung up the phone without even giving her a chance to say something more.

Caroline sighed and returned home. As soon as she entered the door and took off her shoes, she heard a harsh voice coming from the living room. “Caroline, where have you been all afternoon? You left without doing the housework. I’ve been calling you, but you’re not answering your phone. How dare you!”

It was Damian’s mother, Megan Mayson. She stood up, looked at Caroline disgustedly, and snapped, “Hurry and cook dinner now!”

Caroline lowered her head. She was already used to Megan’s attitude, so she didn’t retort. Instead, she replied in a weak voice, “Okay, Mom.”

Caroline had already eaten dinner, but Damian had not returned home yet. She sat in the living room to wait for him. She couldn’t help touching her belly, feeling a little disappointed.

It was late at night, and she had fallen asleep on the sofa. She only woke up when she vaguely heard the sound of a car outside.

Then Damian, in a black suit, came in. He was handsome, but he exuded a cold aura.

“Damian, you’re back!” Caroline stood up, feeling a little nervous.

Damian walked over expressionlessly. He put the document he was holding on the table and said coldly, “Caroline, let’s divorce.”

Caroline froze for a moment. Then she looked at him in disbelief.

“Divorce? Why? Did I do something wrong? You…”

“Ximena has regained consciousness.”

It finally dawned on Caroline. It turned out that Damian’s first love had regained consciousness.

Damian looked at her and said coldly, “She clearly remembers that you hit her with your car that day. What else do you want to explain?”

“No, it wasn’t me. Damian, it was really not me.”

Tears welled up in Caroline’s eyes. She and Ximena Shipley were classmates in college, and they had always been hostile to each other. Three years ago, when she was driving on the road, Ximena suddenly rushed out. Fortunately, she was able to stop her car in time.

But at that moment, another car rushed over and hit Ximena directly. The driver escaped, so when Damian came, he only saw Caroline there. And before Ximena passed out, she questioned Caroline in front of Damian why Caroline hit her.

There were no surveillance cameras in the area, and Caroline didn’t have a dashcam, so she couldn’t defend herself.

Ximena became a vegetable, and Caroline became the culprit just like that.

“Damian, I really didn’t hit her. Let me see Ximena. I want to talk to her.”

Obviously, Damian didn’t believe Caroline’s words. He said disgustedly, “You’re still lying until now? Sign the divorce agreement, pack your things, and leave the villa immediately. I don’t want to see a vicious woman like you again.”

Goodbye My Love novel by Axel Bob

Goodbye, My Love

Summary

Loraine was a dutiful wife to Marco since they got married three years ago. However, he treated her like trash. Nothing she did softened his heart.

One day, Loraine got fed up with it all. She asked him for a divorce and left him to enjoy with his mistress.

The elites looked at her like she was deranged. “Are you out of your mind? Why are you so willing to divorce him?”

“It’s because I need to return home to get a billion-dollar fortune. Besides, I don’t love him anymore,” Loraine replied with a smile.

They all laughed at her. Some believed that the divorce affected her mentally.

It wasn’t until the next day that they realized she wasn’t fibbing. A woman was suddenly declared the world’s youngest female billionaire. It turned out to be Loraine!

Marco was shocked to the bone. When he met his ex-wife again, she was a changed person. A group of handsome young men surrounded her. She was smiling at them all. The sight made Marco’s heart ache severely.

Putting his pride aside, he tried to win her back. “Hello, love. I see that you are a billionaire now. You shouldn’t be with suckers who just want your money. How about you come back to me? I’m a billionaire too. Together, we can build a strong empire. What do you say?”

Loraine squinted at her ex-husband with her lips curled in disgust.

Chapter 1 Surprise

In the dark of the night, Loraine Bryant walked nervously to a room, straightening her silk nightgown with sweaty palms.

This was the first time she’d worn such a revealing nightgown, and she wasn’t wearing any underwear, either.

There was a cool breeze, and the sensation of it brushing past her skin made her tremble.

Loraine spurred herself on.

There was nothing to be afraid of, she reminded herself.

The man in the room was her husband, Marco Bryant, and they had been married for three years. A nightgown like this was made for times like this.

Patting her face and taking deep, calming breaths, Loraine knocked on the door.

A man appeared, tall and strong-looking. His eyes were unfriendly and his lips were slightly pursed. He was as handsome as a god from an ancient Greek oil painting.

“It’s late. What’s up?”

His voice was ice cold. It was like looking at a stranger.

Loraine almost lost all the courage she had worked so hard to gather.

“Marco, do you remember what day it is?”

Marco frowned. “Get to the point.”

The expectation in Loraine’s eyes became disappointment. Forcing a smile, she said, “It’s our third wedding anniversary. You’ve seemed so busy lately. But it doesn’t matter; I prepared a surprise for you!”

No sooner had she finished speaking than a woman suddenly stepped out from behind Marco. She stood comfortably by his side and greeted Loraine with a smile.

“Loraine, I’ve heard so much about you from Marco. We haven’t been introduced, have we?”

The woman was beautiful. Her voice was gentle, and her eyes were lively. It made people want to protect her.

But the sight of the woman shocked Loraine. She froze, feeling the warmth drain from her hands and feet.

“Keely? Why are you here?”

Though they had never met, Keely Haywood’s existence had always overshadowed Loraine’s marriage like a dark cloud.

The house was full of traces of Keely. All the members of the Bryant family had reminded Loraine that Keely was Marco’s woman of choice and that Loraine was just the titular Mrs. Bryant.

Noticing Loraine’s sexy nightgown, Keely lowered her eyes with embarrassment.

“Marco, am I disturbing you?”

Loraine unleashed her hostility. “Yes, obviously.”

The color drained from Keely’s face. “I’m sorry. Please don’t be angry. I’ll leave right away.”

As Keely spoke, she moved as though she were about to leave.

Frowning, Marco looked at Loraine and said, “Keely is our guest, Loraine. Watch your attitude.”

Standing alone at the door, Loraine felt humiliated, as though she was stripped naked.

Legally, she was his wife, but she hadn’t received any respect from Marco or the Bryant family for the past three years.

Marco was always busy with work and seldom came home, and even when he did come home, he never slept in the same room as Loraine.

Now Loraine was being told not to be angry about seeing another woman in Marco’s room. What the hell was going on?

All of her efforts, patience and expectations over the past three years had become nothing but a joke.

Loraine looked into Marco’s eyes. “What about me?” she asked, her voice heavy with disappointment.

“Don’t complicate things,” Marco replied impatiently. “Keely is recovering and needs rest. Which do you want, money or a gift? I’ll make it up to you.”

Loraine watched as Keely’s eyes shone smugly. Before she knew it, she lost her temper.

“Marco, how do you not understand that it’s never your money I want?”

Loraine then spun around and left, dejected.

Marco watched her leave, pinching the bridge of his nose between his eyebrows.

“What is wrong with her today?”

Keely blinked and said gently, “She should be angry with me. I’ll go apologize to her.”

Loraine walked back into her room, changed out of her nightgown, and lay on the bed.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Loraine’s eyes lit up.

Did Marco come to see her?

Loraine jumped out of bed and opened the door. Keely’s face was all she saw. The light in Loraine’s eyes dimmed.

“What are you doing here?”

Keely got straight to the point. “You and Marco might have been married for three years, but I’m the only one he loves. Up until recently, I was receiving treatment overseas. I didn’t think I had much time left, so I let Marco leave me and marry you. But now I have recovered. I hope you’ll respect our love and divorce him.”

Loraine’s heart ached, but she was too dignified to let Keely see her squirm.

“You, a mistress, are asking a wife to divorce her husband? Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds?”

The smile on Keely’s face disappeared. “Watch your mouth, Loraine. I’m not a mistress. When it comes to love, the one who isn’t loved is the mistress!”

Loraine sneered. “As long as I don’t divorce, I’m Marco’s wife and you’re the mistress.”

Loraine’s words hit Keely hard, and she glowered ferociously.

“Don’t get complacent, Loraine. Let’s see what Marco does when something happens to me. Will he let you go?”

Loraine suddenly had a bad feeling about it.

“What do you want, Keely?”

Keely suddenly pounced on Loraine and dragged her towards the stairs.

Caught off guard, Loraine was unable to free herself from Keely’s grip.

“Marco! Help! Loraine is trying to kill me!”

Keely threw herself down the stairs wildly, still holding onto Loraine. Failing to break free, Loraine was pulled down the stairs.

Bang!

Loraine rolled down many flights of stairs before finally landing heavily on the floor.

The repeated blows to her head created a deep wound, causing blood to start gushing out.

Sharp pain coursed through her body, making her dizzy and eventually causing her to pass out.

Just as everything began to fade to black, she saw Marco rushing over. He strode straight past her, choosing to pick up Keely and carry her away, leaving Loraine to lie in a pool of her own blood.
