Divorced and Disfigured, Now Married to a Zillionaire
For years, Liliana "Lilly" Lewiston lived a life defined by silence. A gifted ballerina forced into the background, she played the dutiful wife to Victor McCallum while her twin sister, Alina, lived as the family’s golden child. Lilly was the invisible scapegoat, used for her blood, her reputation, and her compliance, until she was finally deemed useless and discarded.
Framed for a crime she didn't commit, pregnant, and left for dead in the freezing rain, Lilly was certain her end had come.
But she didn’t die.
Sabistan Rhys Hart, the cold, egmatic, and devastatingly powerful uncle of the man who destroyed her. He doesn’t offer pity; he offers a deal. A marriage of convenience designed to secure her vengeance and ignite her rise to power.
Sabistan is a man of few words and ruthless instincts, but there is a fire in him that only burns for Lilly. As she sheds her mask and reclaims her place on the stage, she transforms from the timid, broken girl into a force of nature that will bring the McCallum empire to its knees.
But as the lines between revenge and passion blur, Lilly faces a dangerous truth. She is falling for the only man who knows exactly how dangerous she can be.

Chapter: Chapter 5Lilly I had been locked in this cell for a week, and no one had bothered to charge me. I hadn't been handled with any care, even though they knew I was pregnant.On a Saturday, I was finally told I had a visitor. I didn’t know who to expect, but I wasn't surprised when I saw Alina sitting across from me. Logically, only her would be twisted enough to come.I sat motionless, the cold metal of the chair seeping into my skin. Alina sat opposite me, her fingers laced together, the diamond ring on her hand catching the dull light of the interrogation room. It was a mocking reminder of everything she had, and everything she had stolen."Oh, this?" She noticed me staring at the ring. "Victor proposed last night. The wedding is in a month. You’re free to attend, if you’re out by then."The air left my lungs. I was too exhausted to cry, too numb to scream. All that remained was a burning, hollow need for the truth. I needed to know why I had spent years worshiping a ghost while I was buried

Chapter: Chapter 4Lilly My mouth went dry as everyone gathered around Alina, whose face wore a dazzling, victorious smile. She was breathtaking, more radiant than she had been two years ago.Victor didn't even see me. He walked straight to her, his gaze locked on hers, and claimed her lips in a deep, possessive kiss.“Welcome home, baby. Happy birthday,” he murmured against her skin.The room seemed to forget I existed, until Alina’s eyes locked onto mine.“Why are you staring, sister? You look like you’ve seen a ghost. Did you wish I’d died in that accident so you could keep living my life?”I watched, my lips shivering in realization. Had she planned this all along?“Alina?” I managed to whisper, trembling.“That’s me, Liliana.” She walked toward me, her heels clicking like a countdown. “Sometimes I wonder how vile you can be. You sacrificed your own legs just to try and kill me? Why?”The room gasped. The crowd turned on me instantly. She wanted to kill her sister?How wicked?She deserves everyth

Chapter: Chapter 3Lilly“You’re five weeks pregnant, Mrs. McCallum.”I stared at the file in my hands. Pregnant? I’m pregnant?I was still outside the hospital. I had woken up three hours ago, and the doctor who had attended to me, and finally run proper tests, had delivered the news. I couldn't believe my ears. So, my exhaustion wasn't due to hunger; it was because I was carrying a child.Dorcas’s warning from earlier echoed in my mind. So, she had known. She had seen it.A tentative smile spread across my face. The doctor hadn’t told anyone else yet, and I had begged him to let me share the news with my husband myself.I pushed my wheelchair to the roadside, expecting to find my own way home. I was waiting for a cab when a sleek, black limousine pulled up. I frowned as the glass rolled down.I looked up to meet the cold, grey eyes of my husband’s uncle: Sabistan Rhys Hart. The man barely spoke, always moving with a commanding, terrifying presence. I never knew how to act around him, so I made it a po

Chapter: Chapter 2Lilly“Let me help you, ma’am,” Dorcas said, guiding me into my chair.I watched Victor walk away without so much as a glance in my direction. He was clearly still furious over my disastrous performance on stage, but his indifference cut deeper than any scolding could.“Thank you, Dorcas,” I replied, forcing a smile for the only person in the house who treated me like a human being rather than a nuisance. She was in her early fifties and served as the head cook of the McCallum estate.“You go and get prepared, ma’am, so Mr. McCallum isn’t kept waiting. I’ll clean up this mess and have the staff put the pieces together.”I nodded, grateful yet fearful. “Will you be alright? I don’t want you to get hurt.”“I’m fine, ma’am. You have nothing to worry about. Just go.”I nodded, pressed my palms together in gratitude, and pushed the wheelchair toward the exit. I could have had an electric one. Something that would cause me less physical strain, but my husband was too busy to bother with upd

Chapter: Chapter 1Lilly, 25“I can't. I just can't.” I let out a jagged, muffled protest as my eyes hit the stage. Why had my mother brought me here, forcing me into these ridiculous maid clothes? She had promised me a surprise, and my foolish heart had actually dared to hope that I finally mattered to her.“You can’t?” She groaned. She released the handles of the wheelchair I was sitting in and marched around to face me. I instantly recognized the familiar glint of pure hatred and displeasure in her eyes. “Did you just say you can’t?” She repeated, then turned toward my husband, Victor, who stood near the entrance with his hands in his pockets and an unreadable expression on his face. “I told you, Victor. She is useless. All she knows how to do in that wheelchair is sit all day and play a pathetic wife to a man meant for her sister.”For two years, ever since I was forced to marry Victor in place of my twin sister, who lay in a coma, I had been trapped. To save face for the family, I was coerced into
