The Lover of a Billionaire
Evelyn thought marrying Jason meant finding love, a home, and a family to call her own. But
reality turned out crueler than her dreams. Scarred from saving her son and silently bearing the
weight of sacrifice — including giving Jason one of her kidneys — she is now nothing more than
a shadow in her own home.
To the world, she is just a maid. To her son Liam, she’s an embarrassment. And to her
husband? A secret.
Ignored. Unloved. Unwanted.
Jason hides their marriage to protect his image, while openly entertaining Ivy — the woman
everyone believes is Liam’s real mother. Evelyn’s once-kind son now cruelly compares her to
Ivy, mocking her scars and weight. But the final blow comes the day she discovers them
celebrating Liam’s birthday — without her.
Heartbroken and drunk, Evelyn ends up having a one-night stand with a stranger… only to later
discover he’s the company’s new boss — and Ivy’s brother.
As Evelyn begins to fight for herself, uncovering her hidden strength and quiet dignity, secrets
start to unravel. But how much pain can one woman endure before she finally says: Enough?

Chapter: She Already Knows Her PlaceEvelyn’s POVThe morning air was quiet, but my heart wasn’t.I barely slept through the night. My pillow was soaked with silent tears, and my eyes were sore. Ihad made up my mind. I would collect the divorce papers today. My lawyer had called earlierand said everything was ready. All I had to do was show up and take them.I stood in front of the mirror, brushing my hair slowly. I didn’t even recognize the woman staringback. My skin was pale. My lips were dry. The scar on my cheek… I used to hide it withmakeup. Now I didn’t bother. What was the point?As I slipped into a plain dress and picked up my bag, I took one last deep breath. Today,something in me had changed. I wasn’t going to beg anymore.I walked towards the living room, ready to leave the house, when I heard laughter.Jason and Liam were there — father and son — sitting on the couch, getting ready for work andschool. Liam was holding his little backpack while Jason helped him fix his tie.I paused.I used to be the one

Chapter: The Dress That Broke MeEvelyn’s POVI sat on the edge of the bed, my hands buried in my face. My whole body still felt heavy from thedrink the night before. I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror.What have I done?A married woman… with a child… how could I let myself go that far?The image of that man — cold, handsome, the way he threw that card at me — it still burned inmy mind. I wasn’t that kind of woman. I had never been.But last night… I was broken. I was just a woman nobody wanted. A wife unloved. A motherunrecognized.I picked up my phone to distract myself from the shame building up inside. That was when I sawthe message.“Mrs. Evelyn, there’s a dinner meeting tonight. We need you there. It’sregarding the new project files and mreoverThe CEO from abroad is finallyreturning.”My heart skipped a beat.I remembered — they mentioned weeks ago that the real boss of the company was returning.

Chapter: Echoes of Despair Evelyn’s POVMy head throbbed. Everything was spinning. I groaned softly and tried to sit up.My eyes opened slowly, and confusion hit me like a wave.Where… am I?This wasn’t my room. The sheets were silk, smooth beneath my skin. The air smelledexpensive—like cologne, leather, and something else I couldn’t place. I looked down.I was wrapped in a white towel. Nothing else.Panic exploded in my chest. I clutched the towel tighter and looked around the unfamiliarhotel-like room. Then, I saw him.A man.He was standing across the room, buttoning his shirt, completely calm—as if nothing waswrong. He looked rich. His black shirt clung to his chest, his wristwatch sparkled under the light,and his face… he was so handsome it hurt. Sharp jaw. Cold eyes. Lips that held no kindness.“What—what happened?” I asked, my voice shaking.He didn’t answer.I grabbed the nearest thing—a pillow—and held it to my chest. “What happened last night?!”He glanced at me once, then continued fixing his cuf

Chapter: His Party, Her TearsEvelyn’s POVI checked the time for the tenth time.6:45 PM.Liam should’ve been back by now. The school closes by 4:00, and the driver always brings himhome before 5:00. I had called the driver earlier, but he didn’t pick up. Maybe he was just busy.Or maybe… maybe something was wrong?I had spent the whole day in the kitchen. My hands were sore, my dress had oil stains, and myhair smelled of onions and chicken, but I didn’t care. I wanted to do something special. For myson. For Liam.Today was his birthdayAnd even if he hadn’t smiled much at me that morning, even if he had whispered to Jason that Iwas embarrassing, I still wanted to make him feel loved.Because I was his mother.Even if he no longer believed it.I looked at the table I had decorated—blue balloons, a small chocolate cake, his favoritemashed potatoes, and the gift I’d wrapped with trembling hands. A toy car just like the one hewanted two years ago, before he started hating me.Still… no one came.My heart pound

Not because anyone reminded me, but because how could I forget the day Ibecame a mother? Today was special — Liam’s birthday. I had marked the day in my mind the same way I did I didn’t need an alarm clock. My love for him had always been louder than anything else.I stepped out of my room quietly, still in my robe. The floor felt cold, but I didn’t care. All I couldthink of was how much Liam used to love it when I sang him awake on his birthdays — when hewas smaller, before he learned how to hate me.I walked to his room with a soft smile, holding onto a thread of hope that maybe, just maybe,today he would remember that I’m still his mother.The door creaked open and I peeked inside.He was curled under the blankets, his small frame rising and falling gently. The sight of himsleeping always did something to me — a mixture of p

Chapter: Loud Silence Evelyn’s POVThe morning was quiet.Too quiet.The kind of quiet that feels heavy in your chest. Like the silence is screaming all the thingsyou’re not allowed to say.I stood by the doorframe, watching my son, Liam, frown as he sat on the edge of the bed.His socks were halfway on. His school bag leaned against the wall. His uniform was a littlewrinkled. I had ironed it the night before, just like I always did.I took a small step forward. “Do you want me to fix your tie?”He didn’t answer.I walked closer, kneeling in front of him. My knees hurt these days, but I didn’t care. “Liam,” Isaid again, my voice soft, “Would you like me to make your favorite lunch today? I could bring itto school at break time. The j rice with the diced meat. Remember how much you used to loveit?”He looked up at me with the coldest eyes I’ve ever seen on a child.“No.”Just one word.But it shattered something inside me.“No?” I asked, trying to keep smiling.He stood up and pulled the tie out of my
