The Billionaire's Resentful Wife
I saved his life... and he destroyed mine.
Charlie was Elara's first love ever since childhood, but he never looked at her with love. She pulled him back from the edge of the death, but all he believed that it was her younger sister, Lily, who saved him and from that moment, his heart belonged to her and, Elara was a mere substitute in her own story.
An accident left Lily paralyzed... and Elara became the villain in everyone's story. Ever since, Charlie looked her with hatred. One day, Lily vanished in thin air with no traces, and Elara had to carry all the blame.
But the nightmare had just begun.
Months later, a drunken Charlie mistook her for her younger sister.... and forced her into a marriage built on resentment and revenge. She became his wife, but only in name --- trapped in a cold, merciless life where love was replaced with cruelty.
When things started getting better, Lily returned claiming him back, and Charlie had never move on. So, Elara decided to walk away with nothing but divorce papers and a secret growing inside her.
She rebuilt herself from the ashes of her broken past, growing stronger into a Phoenix, untouchable with time... until one day Charlie realized the truth.
Too late for seeing her again.
Too late for learning who actually saved him.
And Too late... he fell in love.

Chapter: Chapter-23, Bleeding hand.His eyes shifted instantly toward her hand. “You’re bleeding.”The room paused for a moment. Elara looked startled before quickly hiding her finger behind the fabric. “It’s nothing.” she always had this habit of not troubling people much. But Charlie had already reached toward the nearby table and, grabbing a folded tissue before walking closer to her. “Here.”The simple gesture stunned her for a second. She didn't expect him to react like it before everyone. Elara looked at the tissue in his hand shockingly before quietly taking it.“Thank you," she uttered lowering her gaze to the wound. Charlie’s gaze lingered briefly on the tiny blood stain against her fingertip when she was rubbing the soft tissue around it. “It’s deep?”“No,” she answered softly. “I’m okay.”She didn't want to trouble him much. He was noticing her alot these days. After their vivid encounters, he was surprisingly acting little friendly to her, asking about her health and other things. She didn't want to m

Chapter: Chapter-22, Dressing room.Elara finally entered the dining room after several minutes and, instantly their conversation softened for a second simply because they noticed some movement.Lily sat beside Charlie already, glowing beneath the chandelier lights while Fiona spoke warmly to her about university plans and future charity events. While Charlie was looking between his mom and Lily. Then suddenly, Charlie looked up. His eyes intense just contrary to his brooding face. His face pale as always, but his eyes had some magnetic force pulling her to him. And then their eyes met briefly for a second. And immediately—Elara’s heartbeat lost rhythm. Her heart forget to beat and she forgot to breathe. She felt suffocated just by a look. She looked away first as always. Because if look could kill, he would possess the ability to do that. She tried to take long breathe and calm down. “There you are,” Fiona said politely with a gentle smile. “I was beginning to think you disappeared.”Elara forced a small smile. “

Basically, it was one of Victoria’s tatric to bring families more closer so that they can bring future opportunities for both, Lily and Charlie to be together.

Chapter: Chapter-20, walking together.Charlie looked at her quietly for another second before speaking again. "You are different when noone else is around." The words made her heartbeat falter. Her heart almost skipped a beat. Out of habit, she looked at him slowly while Charlie's expression had softened in a way she had never seen it before. “You talk more,” he continued quietly. “You smile more too.”Elara didn’t know what to say next. Because no one had ever noticed her enough to say something like that before. After her grandmother's passed away, the world has became quite for her. No one cared about her presence or absence. She hadn’t expected that someday Charlie may notice her to say something like this. For a moment, she simply looked at Charlie across the table while rainwater traced softly down the tall windows behind him. The warm yellow lights above cast faint shadows against his face, softening the sharpness he usually carried around other people.And somehow—sitting here with him felt unreal.More like

Chapter: Chapter-19, unexpected meeting.A flicker of surprise crossed Charlie’s face immediately.“Elara?”Her heartbeat stumbled painfully and everything stopped there itself. “Charlie…”For a moment, neither of them moved. The library felt so quiet and small. Then Charlie exhaled softly before running a hand through his damp hair, water dripping from the hair ends. His clothes looked darker due to the storm outside, his sleeves soaked slightly as he glancing toward the windows.“The rain got worse," he said while bringing his attention back to her sitting at the one cornor. She felt some twist in her stomach. A helpless churning just by one glance of his. She felt nervous before unconsciously licking her lips. Then she nodded softly. “It usually does.”The answer slipped out before she realized how personal it sounded.Charlie looked at her for a second longer than necessary.Then, unexpectedly—he walked toward her table instead of leaving. His foot moved in the direction toward her which actually surprised her more.

Chapter: Chapter-18, The library after rain.When Elara reached school at morning on the present day, she found her bench empty. Her bestfriend, Suzanne was absent today. And somehow, the absence followed Elara everywhere. She felt quite dull, being introverted she didn’t have much friends and, due to that her whole day seemed more quite and lonely. She took a deep breath when the day finally ended in school. Lately, she had been trying very hard not to think too much.Especially about Charlie Brown.After the luncheon incident, something had shifted between them in a way that frightened her. Charlie had noticed her bruise. He has also seen her frightened which wasn't good for her. And Elara knew herself too well.A little kindness from Charlie had always been enough to ruin her completely.So she decided to avoid him.Not just physically.Emotionally too.Whenever Lily mentioned him, Elara quietly left the conversation. When she heard his car outside the Hughes residence, she stayed upstairs. Even in her own thoughts, she for

Chapter: Honeymoon! This chapter contains mature content...Amber's POV...The phones had officially been switched off and our two weeks of seclusion from the outside world had started as Ethan and I were boarding the boat.After working ten to twelve hour days for weeks, I couldn't believe we would finally be able to leave it all behind. Ethan's college friend would step in and help while we were away, so I was thrilled when we arrived to our room, which would serve as our home for the next two weeks.I was mentally hoping that we could convince him to stay. I, for one, was prepared to make it worthwhile for him to stay if he performed well while we were away; if it got him to move here."No thinking about work," He encircled me with his arms from behind."How do you know I'm thinking about work?" I questioned him."Because you worry too much, now," He said this while he released my dress's straps and allowed it to drop to the floor."Already?" He nodded when I asked.He questioned me, "Are you complain

Amber's POV...I stared at him as the door to our hotel room closed and my mouth fell open."Be gentle with me tonight," I implored. On my wedding night, I was emotionally vulnerable—more exposed than I think I've ever been—and I wanted everything to be delicate. I feel so exposed and emotionally spent from the music and the feelings that my body isn't the only thing that's naked tonight.In a way that I couldn't quite put into words, my soul would be exposed to him in a way that I had never experienced before."Of course Angel," When I reached out to him, he extended his hand and took a step away from me, leading me closer to the chamber. When we entered, he stopped, took my hand, and softly drew me to him."I love you," Even though I already knew he did, I informed him that I needed him to know."I love you too," I shuddered as his hot breath fanned across my neck and his lips, like a whisper against

Chapter: Imperfect wedding party!Amber's POV...I felt and looked like a different person as soon as I walked back into the reception area. I felt lighter, like if the bottom half of me had disappeared, shedding like the weight of my misery.Standing in the center of the floor by himself, David was waiting for me. As I approached him, he smiled and extended his hand, which I accepted."Oh, why do you look so depressed? You have tears in your eyes. Please come see me right away. It's okay to shed tears. I've seen the dark side too, so let me see you through. Nothing you confess could make me love you less; I'll be there for you and promise not to let anyone hurt you when the night falls and you're at a loss for what to do."He was my second father when I was a child and my father-in-law now, so the song fit well. He has supported me throughout my life, having been there since I was fifteen. He was only as active in my life as my parents were in Ethan's.When my parents died, I pushed Dua and David away because I was s

Amber's POV...After the music began to play, Ela and Bella began their walk down the aisle, Theo followed, and my ladies came to the lads at the end. Everyone was seated, the wedding party was lined up, and I stayed out of sight. One of the few friends Ethan kept from college, James was his roommate in college and he arrived just in time last night."Ready?" Looking over my shoulder, I noticed Noah standing there; he looked amazing in a tuxedo."No," He grinned as I laughed."Yes you are," he said. "You look beautiful Amber and I'm so happy for you and I'm so proud of you," He gently stroked my cheek before leaning in to kiss my forehead."Thanks," He grabbed for my flowers and flicked on the candlelight."You deserve to be happy," He took hold of my hand and interlaced his fingers with mine, refusing to let me take his arm to descend."Don't let go," Since he was all I had, it felt appropriate for him to be the one to give me away. When I told him,

Chapter: Ready for wedding!Amber's PoV..."Amber, come on get up," When I felt a faint shake, I rolled away and moaned."No," I voiced my complaints."Woman get your ass up so we can get you ready so you can get married," After that, my covers were torn off, and I glared at Daya, realizing that I preferred Lily."Bitch," I muttered."You are the last one who needs a shower, as you are aware, so we waited until we were all in the shower before waking you up. When you go, breakfast will be waiting for you and you're mimosa," I took a brief shower after Daya shoved me in since I was famished.Food was one way they knew how to get me moving!My appetite has returned, which is a huge difference from when I lost all the weight and avoided food at all costs.
