A Fake Necklace from My Husband Before The Zombie Apocalypse
Alice Cole spent her entire life building herself from nothing. As an orphan with no family name or fortune, she relied on her intelligence to survive and eventually became the hidden force behind her husband Jason Cole’s billion-dollar empire.
She helped him rise from an ambitious businessman into a powerful CEO. But after Jason gained everything he wanted, he betrayed her. On their anniversary, Jason gave Alice a beautiful blue diamond necklace and claimed it was a priceless luxury gift. But Alice soon discovered the truth: the necklace was fake, and the real diamond was given to his mistress, Vivian Laurent.
Heartbroken, Alice decides to divorce him. But before she can throw away the fake necklace, it suddenly activates. Inside the pendant is a hidden secret that reveals a terrifying vision of the future: a deadly virus, collapsing cities, and humans turning into monsters. The zombie apocalypse will begin in 60 days.
Desperate for answers, Alice is pulled back into the world of Tate Harlan, the cold billionaire heir she once knew from the Harlan Foundation. But Tate is no ordinary businessman. He is the leader of H Project, a secret organization preparing for the end of the world.
As civilization falls and the dead rise, Alice must uncover the truth behind the necklace, survive the apocalypse, and face the people who underestimated her.

Chapter: 6. Project GenesisAlice couldn't sleep that night. Even after returning home, her mind kept going back to her brief conversation with Jade on the terrace of the Black estate. [“Tomorrow. Midnight. The old foundation archives. Come alone.”] The words kept replaying in her head. Alice sat on the edge of her bed, staring at her reflection in the mirror. Her fingers slowly touched the pendant hanging around her neck. Sixty days, the outbreak. Jade’s mother’s thesis and now Jade. Everything seemed like pieces of a puzzle slowly falling into place. Yet the more pieces she found, the greater her fear became. Alice was about to lie down when she heard footsteps outside her room. She immediately turned off the light. The door wasn't completely closed. Jason's voice came from the hallway. “Mom, I already told you. Don't get involved too much.” Alice held her breath. Evelyn's voice was quieter. “I just want to make sure she didn't tell Jade anything.” “She?” “Who else?” Alice tensed. Jason was si

Chapter: 5. The Black Banquet“Jade, I didn’t realize you still had my number,” Alice said quietly, glancing toward the living room where everyone was preparing for the banquet. “I keep things as memories. Old numbers, old messages, old mistakes…” Jade paused. “My personal museum of poor judgment.”Alice smiled faintly. “We were classmates. We were supposed to stay in touch.”“Classmates?” Jade’s voice was dry. “That’s a convenient way to describe six years of knowing someone.”Alice gave a quiet laugh. “You were never good at letting things go.”“No. You were.”The smile left Alice’s face. There it was: Jade, cool and unreadable, never revealing more than he meant to. Even in college he could sit through an entire conversation with that same expression while Alice filled every silence. Somehow it worked.Alice had gotten into university on a Black Family Foundation scholarship. Jade had been born to inherit the foundation itself. But between them the difference never mattered. If anything, Jade made sure it neve

Chapter: 4. Ungrateful Bastard"Holy Jesus! Alice, what are you talking about?" Jason shot up from the edge of the bed, his composure finally cracking. He had never expected his sweet-obedient wife to say something so direct, especially not in that cold, unwavering tone. "You heard me, Jason. I want the truth." "No! Uh... why would I do that?!" The answer came too quickly, almost tripping over itself. The sharpness in Jason's voice was followed by a brief hesitation and Alice caught it immediately. She had known him for years. She knew when he was angry, when he was nervous, and when he was lying. This was all three. "Then look at me and say it again." Jason's eyes flickered toward hers, but only for a second. "I don't know what you're trying to imply." "You know exactly what I'm implying." Alice pointed at the faint lipstick stain on his collar. Jason face flushed. He quickly covered the mark with his hand, but the movement only made. Alice's suspicion stronger."You hit your head and started imagining thi

Chapter: 3. Am I Dreaming?Alice woke to someone calling her name. "Mrs. Cole? Mrs. Cole, can you hear me?" Her eyelids felt unbearably heavy. She tried to move, but a sharp ache pulsed through the back of her head. For several seconds, she could only hear the faint clatter of porcelain and the frightened voice hovering somewhere beside her. "Mrs. Cole, please wake up." Alice finally opened her eyes. The familiar ceiling of her bedroom came into focus, followed by the worried face of Maria, one of the senior maids in the Cole mansion. The woman was kneeling beside the bed, one handpressed against her own chest. "Thank God," Maria whispered. "I thought you had fainted again."Alice stared at her. "How long was I unconscious?" "I'm not sure, ma'am. This was the first time I came in. I was about to bring you breakfast when I found you lying on the floor." Maria reached for the glass of water on the bedside table. "Please, drink this." Alice pushed herself upright and accepted it with trembling fingers. T

Chapter: 2. Global Collapse?*GLOBAL COLLAPSE: 60 DAYS REMAINING.* Her breath caught. She reached out. Her fingertips brushed the words and only a faint ripple followed. She turned the pendant over. Checked the clasp. The setting. Even the underside of the stone. Nothing. No seam. No switch. Nothing at all. “Was this a joke? Screw you, fakey.” She took the necklace downstairs and held it over the kitchen bin. “Goodbye.” The stone flashed. Her fingers opened, but the pendant stayed stuck to her hand like glue. Her heel caught the edge of the rug. She gasped. She flailed for the counter and missed. Crack. Her skull hit the marble. “God—” White static exploded behind her eyes. She sucked in a breath and it came out thin and strangled. Her fingers clawed at the cold floor as she tried to push up. The chandelier smeared into a spinning halo. “Stop…” Eyes shut, she reached for the pulsing pendant. Her fingertips brushed the stone. The kitchen vanished. Screams echoed in the dark. “Help.”

Chapter: 1. The Fake Necklace That Predict The World?Alice Cole had never cared about jewelry. At least, that was what she always told herself. After years of marriage to Jason Cole, one of the richest men in the country, she had received countless luxury gifts. Expensive watches. Designer handbags. Rare collections other women could only dream of. Yet none of them mattered as much as the meaning behind the gift. That was why the necklace Jason gave her on their anniversary made her heart soften. It was not just another expensive item. Jason stood in front of cameras, holding a black velvet box, and told the world that Alice was the woman who had stayed beside him before his success. The media loved the story. The billionaire CEO who never forgot the woman who supported him when he had nothing. Alice wanted to believe it too. She wanted to believe Jason still remembered the nights she stayed awake helping him build his first company. The days when no one believed in him except her. Maybe the necklace was his way of saying he ha
