Once A Doormat, Now A Famous Billionaire Heiress
"Notorious Bachelor Lucas Hart, 29, proposes to his first love and childhood sweetheart, Natalia Rossi!"
My heart broke as I saw the picture of Lucas proposing to Natalia on one knee, the same ring I found in his jacket pocket, in the photo being slid onto her finger. The camera zoomed in on Natalia’s face and a gasp escaped my lips. It was like staring at myself, but a thinner, sicklier version of me.
I picked up my phone and dialed a number I hadn’t called in three years.
"Bianca," My father’s voice answered, "To what do I owe this sudden call?"
"Dad," I said, "I accept. I will come back home for the arranged marriage and take back my inheritance."
***
Bianca Salvatore, heiress of the Salvatore empire ran away from home, trying to escape the marriage arranged by her father. She met Lucas who she dated for three years, until his first love returned. He never knew about her true identity, and always shamed her for being poor. He heartlessly announced that he would get married to his first love, then make Bianca his side piece.
Bianca didn’t want that life for herself, so she agreed to her father’s arranged marriage and took her inheritance. From being known as a poor pauper, to a famous billionaire heiress.
Now her ex is on his knees, begging for a second chance. Will Bianca risk her heart again for the man who shattered it, or will she choose the powerful husband who sees her true worth?

Chapter: Chapter 182B I A N C AElijah froze, a look of shock on his face. "Damian? How the fuck did you find me?"Damian didn't answer. He just stared at his brother, his eyes filled with a cold fury. I had never seen him look like this before. He looked like a predator."You're dead," Damian said, his voice laced with venom. "You're fucking dead."He launched himself at Elijah, his fists flying. I could only watch in horror as the two brothers fought, their grunts and curses filling the room. Alejandro and the cops rushed in. Alejandro quickly went to Chloe's side, who was now leaning against the wall. He held her, trying to calm her down. The cops immediately went to Elijah, who was now pinned to the ground by Damian."It's over, Elijah," Damian said, his breath coming in ragged gasps. "It's fucking over."Elijah looked up at him, a look of defiance in his eyes. "It's not over until I say it's over," he spat. "You think you've won? You think you've saved her? You haven't. You'll never be able to undo

Chapter: Chapter 181E L I J A HThe generator was a piece of shit. I could feel the frustration building inside me as I worked on the engine, my hands covered in grease. Anna was lucky I didn't kill her for interrupting me with Bianca.I had been so close. I could almost taste her fear, feel her body trembling beneath mine. But she had to open her stupid mouth and talk about things she knew nothing about. A wounded little boy? The nerve of her.But she was right. And that’s what pissed me off the most.I had spent my entire life living in Damian's shadow. He was the golden child, the one who could do no wrong. And I was the screw up, the disappointment. No matter what I did, it was never good enough.I worked harder, fought dirtier, and I still couldn't get what I wanted.I was sent from homes to homes and kept on getting rejected by every family because and I quote, ‘I was too much for them’. At least that’s what they told me. They never loved me. No one has ever loved me. And no one ever will.And that

Chapter: Chapter 180B I A N C ABut just then, Anna came into the room. She was carrying a tray with our breakfast, but she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw us. Her eyes widened in fear as she took in the scene."Mr. Elijah, sir," she stammered. "I was just bringing the ladies their breakfast."Elijah’s head snapped toward her, his fury redirected. "Get out," he growled.Anna flinched, but she didn't leave. "Sir, there's a... there's a problem," she said, looking at Chloe and I.Elijah let go of my arm and turned to face her fully. "What problem?" he demanded."With the generator, sir," she said, her eyes darting around the room. "I heard it sputtering. I think it's about to go out. If it does, we'll lose power to the security system and the fences."Elijah's face darkened. He stared at Anna for a long moment, as if trying to decide if she was telling the truth."Fine," he snapped. "I'll deal with it. But when I get back," he said, turning to me, "Stay the fuck out of my way until I summon you."H

Chapter: Chapter 179B I A N C AIt was midnight and we hadn’t heard anything from Anna. Chloe and I lay in the darkness, feigning sleep but we were both wide awake, our senses stretched.Then, we heard the sound of the click of the door unlocking. My breath hitched. Chloe sat up beside me.The door opened slowly, and Anna slipped inside. She closed it quietly behind her. She hurried over to the bed."I did it," she whispered. "I got a message out."I sat up, my heart pounding. "What did you say? How did you send it?""It wasn't easy," she said, her breathing ragged. "The connection was terrible. I couldn't risk sending coordinates or anything direct like that. He monitors the data packets for anything that looks like location data.""So what did you send?" Chloe asked in a low whisper."A photo," Anna said. "A photo of the property. A few months ago, when I was trying to find a way out, I took a picture of this unique stone sculpture at the entrance of the driveway. There's only one like it in the entire

Chapter: Chapter 178B I A N C AA week. A full week had passed since Elijah had kidnapped us. I had lost track of the days, they all blurred into a never ending. But the one thing that kept me going was the thought of my son and my husband. Chloe being here also kept me sane because we were in this together. We spent most of our days in the room, talking about our lives before this happened. We were doing everything possible to not think about our current situation. Elijah kept trying to get me to break. He would come into our room, his eyes full of malice and try to get a reaction out of me. But I refused to give him the satisfaction. I would just stare at him. I knew he wanted me to cry, to beg, to show some kind of weakness. But I wouldn't give him that.Today was different. He came into the room, a smirk on his face. "Good morning, my love," he said, his voice laced with mockery.I didn't respond."You’re coming with me today," he said, his eyes dark and dangerous. "I have a surprise for you."I lo

Chapter: Chapter 177E L I J A HI stared at my brother’s beautiful wife as she ate in my new mansion, finally realizing that I had won. I had really won. Bianca was mine. Mine to do as I please and I could already imagine the many things I’d do to her.A slow smile spread across my face as I watched her. She was beautiful, even in captivity. She had this fire in her, this defiance that made her even more desirable. I knew she hated me. And that made me want her even more.I wanted to break her. To shatter her spirit and make her completely dependent on me. I wanted her to beg for my mercy. I wanted her to be mine in every way possible. I wanted to own her.But I had to be patient. I couldn't rush things. I had to savor this victory. I had to enjoy every moment of it.I took a sip of my whiskey, my eyes never leaving Bianca. She was talking to her friend, her voice soft and low. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but I could see the fear in her eyes. She was scared. And that turned me on.I had alwa
