THE EX-WIFE MAKES A COMEBACK
She was once the woman the public admired—the flawless wife beside a man who swore she was his forever. But while the city worshipped their marriage, her husband was quietly building another life with the one person she trusted most.
On the night meant to celebrate their 7 years anniversary, Evelyn Hart didn’t expose the truth. She disappeared silently, like she never existed at all.
Three years later, she resurfaces as Lena Blackwood—the brilliant, untouchable CEO behind one of the world’s fastest STEM innovations,headquartered in London. Poised. Unfamiliar. And far beyond the reach of the man who broke her.
Julian Hart is remorseful now, and desperate to reclaim the woman he betrayed. Serena Vale, the former best friend turned enemy, will destroy anyone who threatens the life she stole. And Adrian Cole, a formidable rival who has loved Evelyn in silence for years, finally steps forward, ready to protect what Julian lost.
But Lena didn’t return for closure. Or forgiveness. She came back to dominate.
In a world ruled by billion-dollar empires, buried secrets, and ruthless ambition, can a woman who was erased rebuild herself and choose a love that never required her to shrink?

Chapter: Chapter 17(Julian's POV)My office phone had been ringing nonstop all morning. I stopped answering three days ago.My assistant kept leaving messages about board meetings I was missing. About investor presentations, and business reports that needed my signature. But I deleted them without listening past the first few seconds.None of it mattered. The company could as well burn to ashes for all I cared. Finding Evelyn was the only thing that mattered.I'd been staring at my laptop screen for so long my eyes hurt. Bank statements, phone records, anything that might give me a clue about where she'd gone. But there was nothing, just empty accounts and disconnected numbers. She wouldn't even respond on all the burner lines I used.The door to my office opened without warning."I said no interruptions." I yelled, without looking up."Yeah, well, I don't work for you."My head snapped up immediately at the voice. Daniel stood in the doorway, hands in his pockets, looking at me with a horrified look. I

Chapter: Chapter 16(Evelyn's POV)The plane landed with an alarming jolt that made my stomach drop. I'd been half-asleep, when it made its descent.Around me, people started grabbing their bags, turning on phones to call their loved ones, while some complained about the flight. All of these were normal things, but I sat still, trying to remember how to be normal.The sound system came up and aBritish accent announced our arrival at Heathrow. The temperature outside was twelve degrees Celsius, and local time was six in the morning.That seemed to wake me from my hazy thoughts as I realized that I was really in London. My legs felt shaky when I stood up. I'd only brought one suitcase, something easy enough to handle by myself. The businessman next to me didn't offer to help and I was glad. I didn't want to talk to anyone.The walk through the terminal felt endless. Signs in English pointed in every direction, and people rushed past speaking languages I couldn't identify. Everything just smelled like rec

Chapter: Chapter 15(Unknown POV)On the forty seventh floor of an Enterprise building, a man stood at the windows, hands clasped behind his back.The city moved beneath him, with buildings, streets, and people moving in patterns he'd gotten used to over the years.He was tall, and built in a way that suggested years of discipline and healthy living.His black hair had traces of silver at the temples, the kind that made him look appealing instead of old. His dark gray eyes studied the activities below with the intensity of someone who rarely missed details.The office behind him was flawless, with everything in their rightful places.In his right hand, he held a photograph. Slightly worn on some part from being handled too many times. A woman in a silver dress, half laughing, her eyes bright with genuine joy. It was the kind of photograph that you just could not get over.Five years old, that's how old the picture is. And it's been five years since he'd first seen her.The memory played in his mind agai

Chapter: Chapter 14(Julian's POV)The next day after the meeting with my private investigator, I was still sitting in the same chair, and wearing the same wrinkled shirt.My phone sat on the desk, screen blank , while I kept wishing it would light up with her name, and kept imagining what I'd say if she called. But she never did.The door opened then without a knock. I looked up, ready to yell at whoever had the nerve to walk in unannounced, but the words died in my throat when I saw who it was. Serena stood in the doorway, and she looked different than the last time I'd seen her. Her hair was packed in a ponytail that had not seen water and shampoo in days. Dark circles lined her eyes, and she was in jeans and an oversized sweater that hid the small bump I knew was starting to show."We need to talk."My assistant appeared behind her, panting with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hart. She just pushed past the desk—""It's fine." I waved her away. "Close the door."She left and Serena walked closer

Chapter: Chapter 13(Julian's POV)I hadn't slept properly in over a week. Maybe two. The days flew by, all running into an endless period of staring at my phone and praying for it to ring.My office looked like a mess. Empty coffee cups covered every surface, some with mold growing at the bottom because I'd forgotten they were there.Crumpled papers littered the floor, all printouts of Evelyn's last known locations, credit card statements, anything that might tell me where she'd gone.The cleaning crew had stopped coming after I yelled at them for touching my desk. My assistant barely looked at me anymore when she brought in messages.Not that any of them mattered. The only message I wanted wasn't coming.I pulled up Evelyn's contact on my phone for the thousandth time. I was still blocked. I'd tried calling from other numbers—burner phones, office lines, even a worker' line. She blocked every single one.My wife was a ghost.No, not my wife. My ex-wife. The divorce papers sat in my desk drawer, signed

Chapter: Chapter 12(Evelyn's POV)I spent the next week in a blur. Days melted together in the hotel room. I ordered room service and didn't leave except to meet with Mr. Creighton's team for more paperwork.My phone kept ringing from unknown numbers. Julian must have bought a dozen burner phones trying to reach me. I blocked each one and stopped answering calls altogether.On day five, I received an email from my assistant."Ma'am, Mr. Hart came by the office today asking about you. He seemed very concerned. He said you weren't answering your phone and asked if I knew where you were staying. I told him I didn't know anything. He asked me to have you call him if I heard from you. Are you okay?"I typed back: "I'm fine. Taking some personal time. If he comes back, tell him nothing. I'll be in touch soon about my resignation."That evening, Mr. Creighton called. "We've completed the financial transfers. Evelyn Hart's bank accounts are now empty. Everything has been moved to accounts under your new name."
