Chapter 4: From Servant To Queen Maddie Odora's face suddenly turned red with fury, her eyes smoldered with fiery rage. “Co wife?” She repeated the words like it tasted bitter in her mouth. “Yes, dear,” I said softly, stepping away from her and walking toward Camden. A faint smile played on his lips. He was clearly enjoying this. “Dad…. What kind of joke is this?” Freddie finally spoke, his voice tight. “Do I look like I'm joking?” Camden questioned without looking at him. “ You married her? My ex wife?” “Yes.” He responded without delay, making his hands fly to her chest. Eartha stepped forward quickly. “This doesn't make any sense! She's nobody. How can you just bring her back here like this?” Camden's averted his gaze to hers, that one look alone made her stop talking. “Mind your tone,” he said calmly. “You don't get to speak to my wife like that.” He warned. Watching everything happening right now seems like a dream. I never imagined a day someone would defend me. This f

Chapter 3 : The Stepmother Returns Life is truly unexpected. One minute, you're handed a divorce paper and left standing in the rain…the next, you're sitting in front of your ex husband's father as he offers you a marriage proposal. “You will give me everything?” I recalled the words to him, my tone firm and steady. “Yes, Maddie. Anything you want in the world. I'll give it to you.” he assured. I let out a heavy sigh as I stared at him, trying to have a glue on what's on his mind. I mean,out of Billions women in the world, why me? Why does he pick me? What does he see in me that others didn't see? What exactly is his motive for going after his son's Ex wife? “No one,not even Freddie, my son will ever look you in the eyes again.” He assured me, making my head spin with a whirlwind of confusion. If I refused, where would I go? Back to my father's house? Back to that life? No! I'm not going back to the trenches. Aside from being cold hearted, Camden is known to be a man of his wo

Chapter 2 : His Father Proposal Maddie I didn't know how long I stood there in the rain My clothes were soaked, my body was cold, my mind was blank and empty. All I knew was that Camden was standing in front of me, looking at me in a way no one had looked at me before.Not with disgust, neither pity, just observation. “What happened to you?” He asked. His voice is calm but serious. My lips parted but no words came out. How do I even explain something like this? That I lost my marriage in one night? That my husband cheated on me with my own step_sister? That I was thrown out like I meant nothing? I lowered my head in shame, my fingers trembling “I have nowhere to go,” I whispered,my gaze still glued to the ground. There was a brief silence, then I felt something warm around my shoulders. I looked up slightly and found out Camden had taken off his coat and placed it on me. “Get in the car.” He said, making my heart skip. I wasn't expecting that from him. I hesitated for a secon

Chapter 1: Divorce Maddie “I told you to clean everywhere before you come back. Don't leave a single place untouched.” My mother's in law voice was still ringing in my head as I pushed the door open and stepped into the house. “I've done it, ma…” I murmured under my breath, even though she wasn't there to hear me. My body ached, my hands were still smelling of cleaning chemicals and my back felt it would break at any moment. I had spent the whole day at her house, scrubbing floors, washing curtains, arranging her wardrobe and even cooking for her guests like I was some kind of servant. And not a daughter in law or even a human being. I quietly slipped off my slippers and stepped into the living room. Unfortunately, the house was unusually quiet. No sound from the TV. No footsteps, nothing. Maybe Freddie wasn't back yet. For a second I felt relieved. At least I wouldn't have to face his cold expression tonight. Neither his words. I slowly walked toward the stairs dragging my
