Revenge On My Ex-Husband
Lora Jade had always been the kind of woman who gave everything for love. She stood by Jackson through his struggles, supported his dreams, and sacrificed her own happiness to help him succeed.
But the moment Jackson finally made it, everything changed.
The man she built her life around looked at her like she was nothing. He handed her divorce papers without hesitation, his eyes cold and unfamiliar.
“You’re no longer my standard,” he said.
As if that wasn’t enough, another woman stepped forward—claiming her place beside him. Together, they mocked Lora, calling her useless, unworthy… disposable.
Heartbroken and humiliated, Lora walked away from the marriage with nothing but pain. But life wasn’t done with her yet.
Just as she tried to pick up the pieces, she received devastating news, her mother needed urgent surgery. A surgery she couldn’t afford.
With no money, no support, and no hope, Lora found herself in a bar, drowning in alcohol and despair. That night, she made a reckless decision.
She gave in to the darkness… and ended up in a stranger’s bed.
By morning, shame and fear drove her to run without looking back.
But what she didn’t know was this—
The man she left behind was not someone she could easily escape.
And he was determined to find her… no matter the cost.

Chapter: Chapter 5Family Dinner Drake’s POVThe instant Lora stepped out of the changing room in the pearl dress, my chest tightened. She looked fragile, almost ethereal, her skin glowing against the fabric.But it wasn’t her beauty that stole my breath.It was the way she instinctively rested her hand over her stomach. Like it was a way to keep herself reminded that she needed to keep herself safe. She had no idea what this world demanded, no idea what I would protect her from.I followed her to the car. Her hands were folded in her lap, knuckles white around her purse. She was tense, afraid—of me, of this marriage, of everything.“Alright,” I told myself. Fear keeps her careful. Keeps her protected.I didn’t want her afraid. I wanted… something else. But that wasn’t possible, not with our arrangement.The mansion rose before us like a fortress. Lora gasped softly, eyes wide.“Is this your home?”“Where we reside,” I said, steering in. “For the year.”Her face paled further. I wanted to reach for her

Chapter: Chapter 4A Wife's First DayLora’s POVThe marriage certificate felt like it was burning a hole in my purse as we left the registrar’s office.It had taken less than thirty minutes. Signatures, stamps, the bored clerk barely looking at us. And just like that, I was married.Mrs. Lora Jade Grayson.The name sounded wrong, like I was wearing someone else’s skin. My fingers went to the plain platinum band on my ring finger—expensive, cold, empty.Drake walked next to me, steady and controlled. No smiles, no softness. Just business.We reached a black car, way too fancy for me to even think about. His hand slipped into mine. Comforting, claiming. I felt a jolt go through me. I told myself it meant nothing. It had to mean nothing.“We’re stopping at Meridian Mall,” he said like he was giving orders, not asking. “The contract will be ready for review before we go to the estate.”I slid into the leather seat, the smell of new leather and faint perfume hitting me. Drake shut the door and went to the d

Chapter: Chapter 3The Devil’s BargainLora’s POVThe fluorescent bulbs in Dr. Chen’s office hummed, a high-pitched buzz that pierced my skull. I sat stiffly in the plastic chair, my fingernails digging crescents into my palms.“Pregnant.”The word lingered between us like smoke, thick and choking. My chest tightened. Each breath was shallow, uneven, like inhaling through a narrow straw.“How long?” My voice felt foreign, detached, as if I were watching someone else speak.“Three weeks,” Dr. Chen replied softly. His tone scraped against me like sandpaper. “Considering your response, I take it this was unintentional?”Intentional? A bitter, wild laugh scraped my throat. My life had never followed any plan. The divorce. My mother’s illness. That night at Murphy’s Bar when I drowned myself in cheap whiskey and woke up in a stranger’s bed.My hands instinctively rested on my stomach. Smooth, still familiar…something growing there, something I hadn’t wanted, something beyond my control.“I want to abort.” T

Chapter: Chapter 2The StrangerLora’s POVSilence swallowed me. I stayed on the floor of what had been my home, surrounded by shattered dishes and broken dreams, pieces too small to ever put back together. The divorce papers were scattered around me. My shaking hands gathered them, holding them to my chest as though they were the only solid thing left. Tears blurred the ink until the words began to fade.I couldn’t stay. Not in this home, not in this life. My legs felt heavy as I rose, each step toward the door a struggle. I stepped into the darkness, leaving the door wide open. Let them ransack it. Let it burn. What did it matter anymore?The street was deserted, lit only by flickering yellow lamps. My legs moved on instinct, carrying me forward with no direction. A dog barked in the distance. A car alarm blared, then stopped.A buzzing in my pocket broke my thoughts. My phone.St. Mary’s Hospital.My mother.A cold, hollow weight settled in my chest.“Miss , apologies for calling,” the nurse said, vo

Chapter: Chapter 1Losing EverythingLora’s POV“What is this?”The words barely made it past my throat, drowned out by the roar of my own pulse. My fingers hovered over the manila folder on the mahogany table, the same table I’d worked double shifts to help him buy.Jackson faced me, but he might as well have been a stranger. The spark that had once lit his eyes when I walked in was gone. The easy smile, the gentle brush of his hand on my shoulder….they had vanished. His jaw was tight, muscles twitching. And his eyes…those eyes I had memorized in every kind of light…were hollow. Empty, like looking into ice.My chest constricted. Something was terribly wrong.I forced my gaze back to the folder, my breathing shallow. No. Please, no.Panic clawed its way up my throat. “Is it the company? Did the deal collapse?” The words tumbled out, frantic, uncontrolled.“What’s going on, Jackson? Why are you staring at me like that?”Like I was nothing. Worse than nothing.My mind raced over every sacrifice I had mad
