The Billionaire’s Rival Contract
The contract bound her. The betrayal broke her. But the rival billionaire will make her unstoppable.
For six years, Bella was the invisible backbone of NovaTech Industries and the secret wife of its ruthless CEO, Damien. She sacrificed her health, her pride, and her ultra-wealthy family for love. But her devotion is met with absolute cruelty when Damien abandons her in a falling elevator to save his manipulative stepsister instead.
Trapped in a hospital bed with a secret pregnancy and a broken heart, Bella realizes her entire marriage was a calculated sham to secure an inheritance. She vows to disappear and make him pay.
Enter Sebastian Lewiston: a dominant, cold-hearted tycoon, the ultimate rival to her ex-husband, and her former high school bully. Sebastian knows Bella’s brilliant mind is the real power behind NovaTech's success. He offers her an elite business partnership, a multi-million dollar loan, and a luxurious place to stay to help her launch her revenge.
As they team up to destroy Damien’s empire, the strict professional lines between Bella and Sebastian begin to blur into a dangerous, possessive desire. And Damian came back, begging for her.
He thought she was a nameless asset he could discard. Now, she is coming back to take everything.

Chapter: Chapter Five: Giving up on him at lastBella I woke up slowly.The harsh fluorescent lights above me stabbed into my eyes the moment my eyelids fluttered open.Pain greeted me before awareness did.A dull ache pulsed through my entire body, but it was nothing compared to the pain in my abdomen. Every tiny movement seemed to pull at something deep inside me, sending another wave of soreness through my body.I tried to lift my arm.The effort alone made me wince.A weak breath escaped my lips as I sank back against the pillow, staring blankly at the white ceiling above me.Then the memories came rushing back.I remembered the way I had called his name, over and over and he hadn’t even turned to me. My throat tightened painfully.I blinked rapidly, but it did nothing to stop the tears gathering in my eyes.How had everything ended up like this? How had I become the person he could leave behind without even looking back?A shaky breath left me.I pressed my lips together tightly. But the tears still came.They rolled silentl

Chapter: Chapter Four: He chose her over meBella The question hit me so hard that for a moment, I forgot how to breathe.Before I could even process it, Damien cleared his throat and his voice carried across the entire office.“This is Anna Sanders,” he announced. “She’ll be taking over the Vega project from now on.”For a second, I just stood there.Taking over the Vega project.My project.The one I had spent months building from nothing.The one I had poured countless sleepless nights into.The one I had practically lived and breathed.Anna stepped forward with a graceful smile on her face, looking completely at ease.“I’m excited to work with all of you,” she said softly.As she spoke, her gaze drifted toward Damien and a small smile appeared on her lips, almost as though she was thanking him for handing her everything she wanted.Immediately, whispers spread through the office.“Wait, wasn’t Bella in charge of the Vega project?” someone murmured under their breath.“Yeah, she was,” another voice replied with pity slippin

Chapter: Chapter Three: Is she his lover?Bella I followed behind them quietly, though my steps gradually slowed.By the time I reached the guest room, Damien had already helped Anna onto the bed.He lowered her carefully, one arm supporting her back while the other remained around her waist. Even after she was seated comfortably, he didn’t move away immediately.Instead, he crouched in front of her.His attention never wavered.His brows remained furrowed as his hands moved carefully around her ankle, checking for injuries with a patience that made my heart ache. There was a tenderness in his movements that felt unfamiliar.Painfully unfamiliar.Even his breathing seemed restrained, as though he was forcing himself to remain calm for her sake.Every small sound Anna made drew his attention instantly and when she winced softly, his entire expression tightened even more.It was such a simple thing. But I couldn’t stop looking because I had never seen him like this before.A memory surfaced suddenly.I remembered lying on the

Chapter: Chapter Two: It wasn’t for meBella Wasn’t that bracelet meant for me?The thought struck hard, cutting through the lingering haze in my mind.When they finally noticed my presence, introductions were made with little fanfare. Anna greeted me warmly enough and soon afterwards everyone moved towards the dining room for dinner.Throughout the meal, I barely touched my food.My gaze kept drifting towards Anna.There was something about her presence that seemed to brighten the entire room. Mandy’s face glowed with affection every time she spoke and her laughter came easier than I had ever heard before. I couldn’t remember the last time she’d smiled at me like that.Perhaps she never had.I lowered my gaze to my untouched plate.The nausea from earlier still lingered and my stomach churned unpleasantly. Every bite felt impossible to swallow and every word that left my mouth sounded distant to my own ears.I was trying my best to remain polite when Mandy suddenly spoke.“Anna will be living here from now on.”The stat

Chapter: Chapter One: Why must you hurt me over and over again?BellaGritting my teeth through the ache, I pushed myself forward, one slow step after another, my knees wobbling beneath me as I forced them not to give out.And then I saw my husband’s car and well, I couldn’t help it. My face lit up and just like that, all of it got a little lighter. I even quickened my pace despite knowing I shouldn’t.By the time I reached the car, I was slightly out of breath.I slipped into the passenger seat and placed my bag on my lap, my fingers immediately finding the document hidden inside.The pregnancy report.My grip tightened around it as excitement and nervousness tangled together inside me.How would he react? Would he finally be happy? Would this change everything between us?Taking a deep breath, I turned toward him.“Damien, I—”Before I could finish, he cut me off.“You just decided to fall sick right now? At the worst possible time?” he said coldly. “You know nobody else can handle the Vega project.”My smile disappeared instantly.“I—“The word
