Divorce Me? Now Watch Me Ruin You

Divorce Me? Now Watch Me Ruin You

For three years, Evelyn Reed played the invisible wife to Tristan Sinclair, masking her genius behind soft smiles and domestic obedience. To the ruthless Sinclair dynasty, she was an uneducated charity case lucky to share Tristan’s name. But on their third anniversary, Tristan destroys the illusion. He hands her divorce papers to marry Chloe, his returned ex girlfriend who claims a terminal illness and weaponizes a past corporate sacrifice. Evelyn does not scream, beg, or shed a tear. She signs the papers, sets her wedding ring on the marble counter, and walks into the stormy night with nothing but her purse, a secret positive pregnancy test, and her true identity as Director Aegis, the feared founder of a multi billion dollar global investment firm. Tristan expects her to crawl back once her bank account runs dry, but her departure causes his world to fracture from the inside out. As small operational fires consume his empire and his company bleeds cash, Tristan is forced to seek an emergency bailout from the untouchable Aegis Capital, only to find his discarded ex wife sitting at the head of the boardroom table. When Chloe’s forged medical records collapse under public exposure and Evelyn’s pregnancy is revealed, Tristan drops to his knees in the dirt of his own ruined pride. But Evelyn has built an impenetrable fortress around her heart and her child, and she will never lower her drawbridge for him again.

Chapter: Chapter 6: The Limits Of His Ambitions
"Are you telling me the papers were signed without checking her offshore medical files first?"Alexander Sterling leaned back in his leather chair, his dark eyes fixed on his chief operating officer across the wooden desk. The private office on the top floor of Sovereign Holdings overlooked the glittering Manhattan skyline, but Alexander wasn't looking at the view."Not only did he sign them, sir, he didn't even read the custody clauses," his COO replied, adjusting his glasses. "Tristan Sinclair handed over his marriage for a woman who lied about her taxes five years ago. And right now, his entire logistics network is crashing because Evelyn pulled her private backing."Alexander let out a slow breath through his nose, his thumb tracing the smooth metal edge of his pen. A faint smirk touched the corner of his mouth."He never deserved her," Alexander said, his voice dropping into a low, rough register. "He spent three years treating her like a piece of furniture while she quietly held

Chapter: Chapter 5: A Secret About To Break
"What do you mean every major bank in Manhattan just turned us down?"Tristan slammed his coffee cup onto the glass table, making the dark coffee splash over the edge.Henderson, his chief financial officer, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. He stood stiffly on the other side of the desk, holding a thick stack of rejection letters against his chest."They aren't just turning us down, Mr. Sinclair," Henderson said, his voice shaking. "They are quoting the exact same risk margin. Someone has flagged our corporate profile across the entire banking sector. Every private lender we approach is pulling their credit lines within ten minutes of reviewing our files."Tristan pressed his lips together in anger. He walked back and forth across the rug in his office, his heavy shoes making loud sounds against the wooden floor. "Find who did it. Dig into every competitor in the tri-state area. I want to know which firm is systematically buying up our debt.""We already checked

Chapter: Chapter 4: His First Taste Of Ruin
"If they sign that German shipping buyout at four billion, Sinclair Conglomerate won't be the only one drowning in debt by midnight."Henry Thorne slid a sheet of financial analysis across the dark glass table, his sharp eyes looking straight ahead.Around the executive boardroom of Aegis Capital, twelve senior directors sat quietly. None of them interrupted or moved their papers. They simply waited for the woman at the head of the table to make her decision.Evelyn didn't look at Henry. She leaned back in her high-backed leather chair, wearing a sharp charcoal pantsuit. Her fingers moved along the smooth edge of her tablet. Her skin was pale, showing how tired she was after the long morning.She picked up the report and looked through it until her eyes stopped at the highlighted clause on page eighty-two."They hid the local workers' compensation clause under the section about city tax rules," Evelyn said quietly, her voice clear enough for everyone in the silent room to hear. "If we

Chapter: Chapter 3: A Costly Mistake
"Watch the IV line near the doorway, please! Do not let the oxygen tank scrape against the wall!"Chloe’s loud voice echoed through the penthouse as two private nurses carried a heavy metal box past the table near the entrance. Suitcases, bags of clothes, and medical machines were piled beside the shoe rack until the whole hallway looked like a hospital storage room.Tristan loosened his tie and stood by the kitchen counter, still holding his briefcase. He watched as one of the nurses pushed a tall oxygen machine down the corridor toward the master bedroom."Tristan, honey, come here," Chloe called, her voice rough as she leaned against the arm of the living room sofa. She was wearing cream silk pajamas, and her pale face was covered with thick powder to hide the grey color of her skin. "Tell this nurse that the pillows in this house are too soft. I need firm orthopedic pillows to support my neck, or I won't be able to sleep tonight.""I'll ask the housekeeper to order whatever you ne

Chapter: Chapter 2: The Fall Begins
The rain hit hard against the windows as the car pulled up to the gate of the private riverside residence. Maya turned off the engine, turned around in her seat, and looked at Evelyn in the back."Can you stand?" Maya asked, her hands still shaking on the steering wheel. "You look so pale, Evie. We need to get you inside right now."Evelyn pressed her hand against her lower belly and took a slow, deep breath through her nose. The sharp pain was starting to ease, leaving behind a dull ache that still made her uncomfortable."I can walk," Evelyn said quietly, unclasping her seatbelt. "Just hold the door for me."They walked up the covered stone path to the side door. Maya punched in the keycode, pushed the heavy door open, and guided Evelyn straight to the leather sofa in the living room. She grabbed a soft wool blanket, wrapped it around Evelyn's shoulders, and set a hot cup of ginger tea on the table."I am calling Tristan's legal team right now," Maya said, pulling her phone from her

Chapter: Chapter 1: The Wrong Choice
“Happy third anniversary, Tristan.”Evelyn placed her warm tea on the kitchen counter and watched the penthouse door. The small black box sat beside the stove. She had been sick every morning for three weeks, taken two pregnancy tests, and visited a doctor in secret. She took a deep breath, adjusted her cream sweater, and waited for Tristan to come home.The door opened.Tristan walked in and dropped his briefcase on the bench. He didn't look at her or hang up his coat. He headed straight for the kitchen counter, his footsteps loud against the wooden floor.“You stayed up,” he said.“It is eight o’clock,” Evelyn replied, her voice soft. She tapped the edge of the velvet box with her index finger. “I made dinner. It is still in the oven if you want a plate.”Tristan reached into his suit jacket and pulled out a thick manila envelope. He laid it flat on the marble, right over the spot where her tea mug rested.“Don’t bother with dinner,” he said. He stood tall over the counter, his tie
