After the Divorce, I Became Untouchable
On our wedding night, instead of consummating our marriage, he gave me papers to sign instead. It stated that our marriage would last only for five years and after that, we go our separate ways. His words broke me but regardless I signed the papers.
I thought I had enough time to make him fall in love with me but who was I kidding, his heart still belongs to my step sister, Rachael. She was his first love, but he was mine.
I endured his mother's oppression, his coldness, for years I thought he was naturally uncaring and only had eyes for his business but I was brutally wrong.The same day I found out that I was pregnant was also the same day I saw his soft side. A side that's well reserved for someone else, there and then he asked for a divorce. It broke me but I didn't beg, I had wasted almost five years yearning for a love I couldn't have.
So I decided to walk away and begin a new life with my child. But who could have taught that a year later, the cold and ruthless CEO would be on his knees begging for a second chance.

Chapter: Chapter thirty fourRachael huffed and stood up, clearly unwilling to elaborate. I immediately blocked the door before she could leave. “Tell me what you’re talking about. Right now.” “Oh, please, Daniel. You don’t have to pretend you care about her in front of me.” She stepped closer, her hand trailing deliberately up my chest. “You can drop the act.” I seized her wrist, my heart hammering. “She is my wife. I care about her — down to the last strand of her hair.” She let out a cold, mocking laugh that echoed through the study. “What’s so funny?” “So you’re telling me you care about her, yet you gave orders for her to be locked up and fed only once a day for an entire week?” “I didn’t—” “Daniel, there’s no need to act like you’re better than me,” she sneered. “I may have hired men to erase her from the picture, but you… you’ve done far worse. Emotionally. Physically.” She yanked her hand free and stormed out of the room. I stood frozen, her words ringing in my ears like a death knell. L

Chapter: chapter thirty three“Rachael,” my assistant repeated. “Miss Rachael ordered the attack. We traced the bank accounts and the phone numbers — everything leads back to her. I’ve left the full file on your desk.”My head buzzed as I drove home, thoughts of Roland completely forgotten. Rachael? She was the one who wanted Emma dead. How could she even consider something so monstrous? My stomach twisted as I remembered Emma desperately trying to tell me the truth that day. I hadn’t even given her a chance. I had brushed her off without a second thought.The moment I reached home, I went straight to my study and pored over the documents again and again, searching for any possibility that someone was framing her. But the evidence was damning. Every trail pointed directly to Rachael.The memory of the fight between her and Emma replayed in my mind. Emma had accused Rachael of sending those men, and I had dismissed it instantly. Regret clawed at my chest. I should have listened. Who knew what kind of punishment my

Chapter: Chapter thirty twoRachael was pacing anxiously in the living room when I arrived. Her parents rose immediately at the sight of me.“Daniel, you...” Rachael’s words died in her throat the moment she saw the look on my face. The conversation with Emma was still rubbing off on me. “Daniel, why do you look so angry?” Rachael’s panicked voice filled the room. “Did my sister say something? I swear, whatever she told you is a lie. I didn’t do...”“Rachael!” her mother cut her off sharply.The atmosphere grew thick with tension. I immediately sensed that there was something important I'm missing.“You didn’t do what?” I asked, fixing my gaze on Rachael.She began stammering, her words incoherent and rushed.“Calm down and explain,” I said, my patience fraying with every second."“That doesn’t matter right now,” mom interrupted. “What matters is that you abandoned Rachael in the middle of the ring exchange. Now, Rachael’s reputation is at stake.”I took a deep breath and sat in the nearest arm chair. “I’ll hav

Chapter: Chapter thirty one***Daniel’s POV***Emma startled at the sound of my movement and fell back onto her butt. I ignored her and walked into the closet, quickly getting dressed. When I emerged, she was sitting meekly on the edge of the bed, looking small and pitiful. Her hair spilled wildly over her shoulders, and she appeared utterly wrecked. There were clear signs of exhaustion on her body. I wondered if she had eaten properly during these past few days I have not been around.A sharp knock on the door shattered the tense silence. I crossed the room and opened it.“What is it?” I asked the guard.“The Adams family insists on speaking with you, sir.”“Didn’t I say I would meet them tomorrow?”“Yes, but they’re demanding to see you tonight.”I let out an irritated groan and dismissed the guard. “Tell them I’m coming.”I closed the door and glanced back at Emma. Her face was strangely blank as she stared at nothing in particular. I had expected anger, jealousy—something. But there was none of that. May

Chapter: chapter 30***Emma’s POV***I brushed the painful memories aside and slipped into the bathroom. After a long, much-needed shower, I realized there were no clothes waiting for me. With no other choice, I wrapped a towel tightly around my body and stepped out.I froze.Daniel was sitting on the edge of the bed, his jacket discarded, leaving him in a plain white shirt unbuttoned at the collar. He looked up, and his entire body stiffened at the sight of me.“There weren’t any clothes,” I explained nervously, clutching the towel closer to my chest.He rose slowly and advanced toward me. I backed away with every step he took until my back hit the bathroom door. He closed the distance, trapping me against it with his body. His stormy eyes locked onto mine.“What are you doing?” I whispered.His fingers tilted my chin upward. Before I could process it, his lips crashed down on mine. Shock held me still for a heartbeat—then his mouth moved with fierce intent. I pushed against his chest, but he didn’t bud

Chapter: Chains of the Contract***Emma’s POV***To my utter shock, Daniel ignored Rachael completely, striding past her as if she were invisible. I glanced back and caught the raw fury blazing in her eyes as she stared daggers at me. She had no right to blame me. I had wanted nothing more than to disappear from their lives, but Daniel refused to let me go. We soon reached my old room. A guard quickly unlocked the door. The moment Daniel stepped inside, he froze. Curious, I lifted my head and looked around. The space looked nothing like the room I had lived in for nearly five years. My eyes landed on the framed pictures on the wall, and everything clicked. Rachael had completely taken over. In just a matter of days, every trace of my existence had been erased. Even the curtains had been replaced. “What happened here?” Daniel’s voice thundered through the room. “Sir, Miss Rachael moved in a few days ago,” one of the guards answered nervously. “What?” Anger sharpened his tone. “And no one thought to inform

Once they were outside the gate, he took her to a shaded area and gently lowered her onto a bench. Lucy begged him to call Ashley.

Chapter: Fourteen Days of HellNot less than four hours later, three bodyguards entered the basement. One of them held a long, thick whip. Lucy scrambled backward in terror, shaking her head wildly, fear blazing in her eyes.“Please don’t do this. I promise I didn’t do anything,” she begged.“I’m sorry, ma’am, but we’re just following orders,” one of them replied.“Just let me speak to Marcus one more time. I’m pregnant, but he doesn’t know it yet. If I get whipped, I might lose the baby.”The guards were visibly taken aback by her revelation. They hesitated and spoke quietly among themselves. However, after a brief discussion, they still approached her. Two of them firmly pinned her face down against the cold floor.Lucy writhed desperately on the ground, screaming at the top of her lungs. “Please don’t do this! I beg you, plea—”Her voice was cut off by the first lash. A bone-chilling scream tore from her throat. She buried her face into the floor as searing pain exploded across her back. The whips kept coming —

Her head throbbed heavily as she slowly opened her eyes.Her brows furrowed in confusion as she took in her surroundings. She was lying on the floor while Marcus stood above her, staring down with pure fury.“What is happening?” she murmured, struggling to sit up. She couldn’t remember anything.Suddenly, her hair was yanked back violently by Clara, who was screaming at the top of her lungs. “What the hell did you do to my baby?!”Marcus grabbed Clara and tried to pull her away, but she was uncontrollable. “You tried to kill my babies, you witch!”“Clara, calm down,” Marcus said in a panicked voice. “Let’s take them to the hospital first.”Stella stood nearby, holding the newborn baby. She flashed Lucy a wicked grin before walking toward the door.“Guard! Lock her up in the basement,” Marcus instructed while dragging Clara out of the room.“No, Marcus, wait!

Chapter: Breaking PointAfter hearing the whole truth, Lucy collapsed silently onto the floor of the closet, desperately trying not to break down and wail. She waited with bated breath until she was certain Marcus and Clara had fallen asleep. Only then did she sneak out of the room and run back to her own.She spent the entire night reflecting on her past and regretting every decision and sacrifice she had made for Marcus and his family. Tears streamed down her face nonstop. She cried until she had no tears left. For the past ten years, her life had been nothing but a carefully orchestrated plot devised by three people.She had trusted Marcus completely, never imagining he would betray her so cruelly.
