Revenge of the billionaire’s betrayed bride
You all...I died a broken bride and I woke up a vengeful queen eight months in the past.
I won't make such mistake again.
Fidelia Crawford was the perfect pawn. She trusted her "step father" Derek, loved her fiancé Silas, and adored her stepsister Bridget. Well that foolish trust cost her everything.
On her wedding night, she found Silas and Bridget in the ultimate betrayal, having a hot steamy sex. When she tried to flee, they didn't just let her go—they left her for dead on a cold marble floor.
But the universe offered Fidelia a miracle: she woke up eight months before her murder.
Now, the "innocent heiress" is gone. In her place is a woman with the skills of a master hacker and the heart of a mercenary and knowledge of the past. To dismantle the Crawford empire, Fidelia needs a powerful ally, and she knows exactly where to find him:
He is Andrian Richardson a dangerous billionaire playboy with a reputation for destruction and a deep-seated grudge against her family.
Fidelia offers him a contract marriage he can’t refuse. The plan is simple: marry the man her stepsister wants, strip her enemies of their fortune, and disappear.
But as the lines between their fake marriage and real passion begin to blur, Fidelia realizes Andrian has secrets of his own—secrets that tie back to her father’s death.
They killed her for her inheritance. Now, she’s coming back for their souls. Meanwhile she finds herself falling again for Andrian while he would do anything to keep her safe.
But their past won't let such ever happen.
Will they give up or will they fight?

Chapter: Twenty Eight“Mom, I’m worried,” Bridget said quietly. “Do you think she’ll report what we did to her?”Her mother gave a short, dismissive laugh. “She? No. She’s been acting tough lately, but today I saw how scared she really is. She’s just the same little girl I used to control back then. Nothing’s changed.”A cold smile crossed her face. “After today, she’s learned not to offend me again.”Fidelia stirred awake, her eyes slowly blinking open as she lay on the bed. The ceiling above her was unfamiliar. She didn’t know where she was… or how she got here.All she could remember was Andrian — his face appearing in her room, the sound of his voice, and him driving her somewhere.Then it hit her. Flashes. Violent, raw flashes of the past. Her stepmother. Her sister’s voices, the cruelty, the betrayal. The pain.The trauma she thought she had buried clawed its way back, and before she could stop herself, tears started to pool and stream down her face.She curled up tighter on the bed, trying to suppre

Chapter: Twenty SevenAndrian drove recklessly, not even bothering to watch his speed. All he could think about was Fidelia — the possibility that she was in trouble kept flashing in his mind like a warning siren.When he got in front of her house, he parked haphazardly, not even checking if he had done it right. He flung open the car door and ran toward the gate, not caring to shut it behind him. Luckily, the gate was open.Before entering, he paused. That was when he noticed Fidelia’s car parked beside the wall of the house.'She’s inside'That certainty hit him like a punch. He bolted through the compound and reached the front door. He pressed the doorbell. No answer. He pressed it again, harder this time. Still nothing. Then he started banging loudly on the door.Inside, Bridget and Alice rushed into the living room, startled by the loud noise. When they saw Andrian through the peephole, Bridget immediately started panicking.“Mom it’s Andrian, he is here!!”“What is he doing here?” she whispered, hear

Chapter: Twenty Six“Open the door!” Fidelia shouted, rushing to it, banging her fists.Alice’s muffled voice came through the door. “You really think you’ve won, don’t you?”Bridget joined in, voice trembling. “You’re not marrying Andrian. You’re delusional if you think you can blackmail your way in.”Fidelia’s eyes narrowed, fury brewing behind them. “Open the damn door!! This is kidnapping. You’re locking me in?”“No sweetheart, it’s just your mom disciplining you” Alice replied coldly. “We’re putting you in your place. It’s been a long while I have done that so you have indeed forgotten I’m in charge around here”Fidelia stepped back, breathing hard as she stared at the door.Fidelia was still shouting, slamming her fists against the locked door.“Open this door now! Do you hear me?! I said open it!”“Please, I’m begging you…open the door I can’t stay here”She kicked hard, the sound echoing through the hallway.But no one answered. Then she heard it — the sharp, bone-jarring smash of something hitti

Chapter: Twenty fiveFidelia went back home. Now that she was getting married, it was time to pack her things and inform her stepsister, and of course, her stepmother. That was part of the revenge: making them watch her rise, powerless to stop it.The moment she stepped into the house, her stepmother stormed toward her like a raging bull.“How dare you brat!” she screamed, grabbing Fidelia by the arm. “You ruined everything! I had that marriage perfectly planned!”Fidelia rolled her eye and didn’t flinch instead she yanked her arm free and stared her stepmother dead in the eyes, a cold smirk curling her lips.“Perfectly planned? Tsk…I suggest you use such amazing skills for Bridget. She desperately need a new husband after I stole hers”“And just so you are aware, I already made it clear that I broke up with Silas,” she said coolly. Then she leaned back and whispered loudly.“You can’t control me anymore, Mother and I’ll suggest you don’t try to.”“You better shut it Fidelia, I have no idea what had gotte

Chapter: Twenty FourHe took a breath.“But I didn’t come back empty-handed. I went out there and did what most people in this room couldn’t. I secured a deal that shifts the future of our tech division—and positions us to compete head-to-head with our strongest rivals. This wasn’t just a lucky catch. It took great planning for me and it took numerous negotiations and the price of it I took damage for.”He leaned slightly forward.“When a company values results over rumors, and growth over gossip then it should be clear that I’ve earned my place back at the table.”Andrian Richardson sat quietly as the boardroom buzzed with tension. The recent scandal had barely cooled off, but now the question of his reinstatement was on the table. He had brought in a major tech acquisition—one that could shift the company’s future—but not everyone was convinced.Before the board could react, Charlotte, his ex-girlfriend, stood up.“I agree,” she said confidently. “Andrian should be reinstated.”Some board members shift

Chapter: Twenty ThreeThe Richardson estate hadn’t changed, quiet, pristine, and imposing. He stepped into the sitting room where his grandmother waited, seated neatly in her favorite high-back chair, a porcelain teacup in hand.“Andrian…You’re late,” she said without looking up.“I came as soon as I got the call, what’s so important that I had to come straight to you, grandmother?.”She met his eyes. “Let’s get to it. Take a seat first” She gestured to the couch close to him. Andrian took it and rested his back.“I’m calling a board meeting. It’s time you returned as managing director.”Adrian raised a brow. “After everything? The scandal, the press—”“They’ve already moved on,” she cut in. “You brought in the Alisocial deal. The board sees profit, not bad press. Some are still hesitant, but money always wins.”He nodded, absorbing the weight of her words. Then she added, casually, “Your ex-girlfriend called.”He blinked. “Who?”“Charlotte.”He let out a breath. “Of course.”“She said she’s coming to the
