Destroying My Ex With His Worst Enemy
For five years, I was the fool behind his fortune.
I built my husband Julian’s company from a dusty garage into a million-dollar firm, surviving on sixteen-hour workdays and zero salary because I believed we were building our future. I even raised his seven-year-old "orphaned nephew" as my own son.
Then I found the offshore bank statements.
Julian wasn't just using me, he was secretly married to the boy’s real mother the entire time. I wasn't his partner, and I certainly wasn't his wife. I was just an unpaid, gullible caretaker funding his secret family's luxury lifestyle.
So, I wiped my code from his servers, left his company an empty shell, and walked out. After hiding out in a cheap motel for days, trying to figure out my next move, I went to a high-end hotel bar to lose myself for one night. Then, I met a dangerous stranger who I let drag me into his luxury suite and fuck me senseless in ways my ex couldn't even touch in five years of marriage.
I expected to slip away at dawn, but the stranger wasn't just anyone. He was Liam Blackwood: the city’s most feared billionaire, my ex’s worst corporate enemy, and a man who knew exactly who I was—the genius behind Apex media and apparently, the long-lost heiress to the multi-billion-dollar Montgomery empire.
Before I could walk out the door, he made me an offer I couldn't refuse: a ring, a contract, and his entire empire to help me burn my ex to the ground.
Now, my ex is on his knees begging for a second chance, completely unaware that behind closed doors, my possessive new husband takes, claims, and bends me over whenever he wants.

Chapter: Chapter 13The morning light hit the penthouse bedroom in soft, pale gray streaks. The storm had finally cleared over the city, leaving behind damp streets far below and a crisp, quiet sky.I woke up slow, my skin still warm where Liam’s arm was heavy over my waist, anchoring me flush against his side. The memory of the kitchen counter, the rain slamming against the glass, and the raw, uninhibited heat of the night before rushed back instantly. My body felt thoroughly used in the best possible way—a dull, thrumming ache between my thighs that served as a constant reminder of who I belonged to now.I shifted slightly, and Liam’s grip tightened instantly.He wasn't fully awake, but his instinct was to keep me close. He pulled me back against his bare chest, his breath warm against the nape of my neck before his lips found the sensitive spot right above my collarbone, pressing a slow, lazy kiss there."Morning.” He rasped, his voice thick with sleep."Morning.” I murmured, turning my head on

Chapter: Chapter 12The thunderstorm rolled over the city around midnight. Heavy rain slammed against the glass walls of the penthouse, and thunder rattled the windowpanes every few minutes.I couldn't sleep. The adrenaline from the last forty-eight hours was still humming under my skin.I quietly slipped out from under the heavy comforter, making sure not to wake Liam, and walked barefoot down the dark hallway into the kitchen. The city lights below were blurred by the rain streaking down the floor-to-ceiling glass.I poured myself a glass of ice water and leaned back against the kitchen island, staring out at the storm.It was surreal thinking about how quickly everything had changed. Six months ago, I was sitting in a suffocating house with Julian, quietly enduring his subtle insults, taking the blame for a failing marriage, and pretending not to notice how he treated me like an inconvenient ghost. I had been raised to be polite, to keep the peace, to be the dutiful woman while my uncle and my

Chapter: Chapter 11: They’re Turning On Each OtherChapter 11I didn't hide, and I didn't let Liam’s PR team issue some cold, robotic corporate statement. That was what Elena expected. She wanted me on the defensive.Instead, I booked a ten-minute live segment on Financial Morning Direct—the biggest business show in the city.By nine-thirty, I was sitting under the bright studio lights in a sharp cream suit, looking calm and totally unbothered."Miss Montgomery.” The anchor started, leaning forward with a cautious look. "Tabloid reports came out this morning alleging that you abandoned your former stepson after your recent marriage to Liam Blackwood. How do you respond to those claims?"I looked straight into the camera lens, keeping my expression relaxed and my voice steady."For five years, I raised Leo as if he were my own son.” I said simply. "I packed his lunches, put him to bed, and took care of him while his biological mother was living off Julian Thompson’s money in Europe. I love Leo, and I will always care about his we

Chapter: Chapter 10: She Wants A WarChapter 10We didn't go back to the penthouse. Instead, the SUV pulled straight up to the side entrance of the Montgomery Group headquarters. It was almost nine at night, and the towering glass building was mostly dark, except for the top floor.Uncle Richard’s floor.Liam and I stepped out of the car, flanked by two of his head security guards. My heart was pounding, but it wasn't out of fear. It was sheer, cold focus."My team has already disabled the internal cameras on the executive floor.” Liam said softly, holding the private service elevator open for me. "Whatever happens in that room stays between us and Richard.""Good.” I replied, smoothing down my dress. "Because I don't want any witnesses when I ruin him."The elevator doors slid open quietly on the top floor. The hallway was dead silent. We walked straight toward the heavy double doors of the chairman’s suite. Through the frosted glass, I could see lights on and a figure moving hurriedly around the room.I didn

Chapter: Chapter 9: Let’s Take Your Company BackChapter 09The private dining room at the top of Metropolis Tower gave a full view of the city below. Down there, everything looked tiny, but inside the room, the atmosphere was thick with wealth and influence.Sitting across from Liam and me were Arthur Smith, Evelyn Thorne, and Marcus Hayes—the three major shareholders who controlled a critical thirty percent of the Montgomery Group board.Liam sat right beside me, one arm draped over the back of my chair. He didn't say much; his presence alone was a quiet warning that Blackwood Enterprises was backing me up. But I was the one taking charge."My uncle has spent the last five years convincing you that my grandfather's estate was being preserved.” I said, sliding three identical leather-bound dossiers across the polished mahogany table. "Page four shows the actual capital expenditure reports from the last eighteen months."Evelyn Thorne adjusted her glasses, her sharp eyes scanning the red-inked balance sheets. "These numbers..

Chapter: Chapter 8Chapter 08Alison’s POVThe cool morning air didn't help clear my head as I walked out of the law firm near the financial district. Liam’s legal team had spent two hours going over the paperwork to help me reclaim my grandfather’s seat on the board. It was exhausting, but it had to be done.Liam walked a few steps behind me, quietly giving sharp instructions to his assistant over the phone about a new business deal.I took a deep breath and headed toward the black SUV waiting at the curb. I wasn't even halfway down the wide stone steps when a desperate voice called out my name."Allison! Wait—please, just stop for one second!"I froze.Julian rushed out from behind a stone pillar near the entrance. He looked disheveled. His expensive suit jacket was unbuttoned, his silk tie loosened, and his hair stood up in messy clumps where he’d clearly been pulling at it."Julian.” I said, my voice dropping into an icy register as I stopped. "You're violating the distance boundary my lawye

Chapter: Chapter 63Chapter 63"I still can't believe you went through all that and you didn't tell any of us." My mom said over the phone."I know." I sighed, scratching the edge of my eyebrow. "I should've talked to you. But honestly, I didn't want to make you guys worry when there wasn't really much you could do over there. I didn't want you to feel powerless."Mom let out a sigh, "You are so strong and I am so proud of you, Gracie."I blinked back emotional tears, "Thanks, mom.""Are you at the airport already?" She asked me."No, but we're about to head out." I told her, adjusting my phone between my face and my shoulder so I could zip my purse. "Our flight isn't for another two hours.""Okay baby." She said softly. "Text me immediately you land, okay?""Okay mom, I will." I told her. "Bye. I love you.""I love you too." She said before she hung up.Placing the phone in my pocket, I looked to Dean who just stepped out of the passageway and smiled."Are we all set?" He asked, standing beside me.I to

Chapter: Chapter 62Chapter 62It had been three days since Connor got arrested.And I couldn't express in words how happy I felt now that, that striking pain that seemed like it was crested in my chest had gone. I honestly felt myself take the first step in healing when I witnessed Connor being dragged out of Spring in handcuffs.The police had called me and a few of Connor's assistants in the past to make several statements. It felt a bit triggering but it was helpful.It was needed.Connor would never get the chance to hurt any woman in the manner that he did, ever again.There was a particular calm that had settled in now and it was a calm that I loved.Now that the whole Connor issue had blown over, Dean's father had already started talking traveling arrangements again. Which was only natural, Dean had spent more time in Bath than he was supposed to, leaving a lot of work suspended. And I would remain eternally grateful for the time his father permitted us to have with each other.Dean was set to le

Chapter: Chapter 61Chapter 61"Oh my God." Lydia said in disbelief immediately I finished speaking. "Are you fucking serious?"I nodded, wishing I wasn't as well, "I am.""And then just Connor showed up at your front door?" She asked, shock still in her tone."He did." I nodded. "Turns out he knew that we broke into his house.""Jesus." She expressed, leaning back in her office chair.The next day, I had to be at work.Yesterday was a lot to take in in general and I honestly did not know what to make of all of it. I was still in shock.After I tended to Dean's wound last night, we simply had dinner and went to bed. I was up early to get ready for work and had a brief conversation with Dean before stepping out.I was currently in Lydia's office, filling her in on everything that happened yesterday and she wasn't taking it better than I did.Lydia reached out to place her hand on mine and asked with an empathetic look on her face, "How do you feel?""To be honest, Lydia," I said, my voice breaking, "I fee

Chapter: Chapter 60Chapter 60“Remind me why you two need to break into Connor’s house again?” Lydia asked, throwing confused stares at Dean and I.“Well, it’s not really breaking in if I have a key.” I shrugged lightly.It had been four days since we spoke to Audrey.And frankly, we hadn’t made much progress since.The background check Dean had carried out on Connor came back and it wasn’t really much help. It didn’t give us any information other than what we already knew. And if we found any thing a little bit suspicious, we still didn’t have much more to act on it.Getting the CCTV footage seemed more and more impossible by the day. At this point, it was obvious they were toying with us and had no intention whatsoever of letting us take a look at it. And the more we requested for it, the more we stood at risk of Connor finding out that we were on to him.And I didn’t want that to happen.Getting fed up with sitting on our hands and doing nothing, Dean and I decided it would probably be a good idea to

Chapter: Chapter 59Chapter 59Audrey had agreed to come over to talk.And I gave Lydia a call immediately our conversation over the phone ended. And it wasn’t long before she showed up at my front door.We all waited eagerly for Audrey to arrive.Honestly, it felt surreal that she finally responded to us. It felt like there was so much mystery surrounding what happened with her and Connor and where she had been this entire time and why she completely ghosted everyone.I had a lot of questions for her, to be honest.Because we had a real friendship, regardless of anything.While we waited, Lydia filled Dean and I on how the conversation with her friends turned out, which kind of went south at the end if you ask me. We also told her about our conversation with Mr Flores and everything that led up to him quitting his job.Lydia was just highlighting how much of a terrible person Connor was when the doorbell rang. I sprung up my seat immediately and headed for the front door.I wasted no time in unlocking a

Chapter: Chapter 58Chapter 58“I don’t know,” I gave a light shrug. “I’m not sure exactly what I expected but I was kind of hoping she’d have something more reasonable to say. But her views on the entire thing haven’t changed. She still thinks I should suck it up and forget about justice.”“Damn, I’m sorry my love.” Dean said, stealing a quick glance at me in the passenger seat before focusing his attention back on the road. “If she still thinks like that, then she obviously doesn’t believe you. Because it’s impossible to not feel angry about this situation, especially when it involves someone you claim to care about so much.”Dean kept to his word and was at my workplace to pick me up by 5pm sharp.We waited with Lydia for a while before Carlton came to pick her up. Carlton was kind to me, as he has been since the whole thing happened. I could tell what happened to me really made him upset. I mean, apart from the fact that his girlfriend was completely affected by it.He genuinely wanted to help in wha

Chapter: Chapter 72 Chapter 72I had no idea what to do.Kendra had given me the offer again.We had quite the conversation when she called me last week. We talked about everything that happened and how it affected her view of me. We talked of how relieved she felt when her son told her that it was all a misunderstanding and everything was done out of spite. We talked about how she had received a call from Dean Ryan and the heart-to-heart conversation they had.We talked about how hesitant she was to contact me when the truth behind the photo was revealed. We talked about how shocked and happy she felt when she received my email. She talked about

Chapter: Chapter 71 Chapter 71"Hi." Dean said in the most feathery voice, his tone completely matching mine.Someone teach me how to breathe, please.I literally held my heart in my hands as I stood in front of him. I had no idea how this was going to go or what I should've said next but all I knew was that there were a million things that I was finally ready to get off my chest. I was done fighting it, I was done trying to act strong, I was done with all of it. Because standing there in that very moment, I realized something;I missed him.God, I missed him painfully."Can I come in?" I asked him.He cleared his throat like my voice snapped him out of a trance

Every action I performed, right from brushing my teeth, having a shower and getting ready, made the feeling in my stomach go up a notch every time.Every bone in my body screamed at me to just stay home today until I was sure that I could go to school without feeling like anxiety was about to knock me out but there was also a voice at the back of my mind that told me to suck it up and get this over with once and for all.I swear, I felt like a freshman on their first day of high school.Chris and I's schedule no longer aligned this year.

I remember how hurt Dean looked when I walked out of the penthouse which was basically our home for months. I remember how his face fell when he begged me not to fall out of love with him and I lied through my teeth. I remember feeling like a part of me was missing when I had to force myself to be okay. I remember going back to my best friend and him trying to get me to hear him out.Chris had told me that Dean had explained to him what really happened and that if I'd just listen to what

As cheesy and over the top as this may sound, everything seemed to have lost purpose and meaning. I never thought a time like this would come, where Grace would no longer want anything to do with me, where we wouldn't be together.After that morning at Chris', I drove back home feeling the deepest void inside me. I had been texting Grace nonstop to hear me out but I haven't gotten a response from her. It was only today that I realized that she had blocked my number, if not deleted it and that hurt me, a lot.
