Detroit~

He stirred awake, his lashes fluttering against the dim wash of moonlight spilling through the curtains. His throat felt like sandpaper, his chest heavy with every inhale. There was weight at his side — a small, warm grip curled tight around his hand.

Slowly, he turned his head, tugging the adhesive on his temple. His vision blurred at first, a haze of shapes and shadows. Then, as it sharpened, he froze.

A head rested on the edge of his bed. Soft hair spilled across his sheets, strands tickling the back of his hand where she clung to him.

Adele.

His chest tightened. For a moment, he thought he was still lost in some fever dream. But no, her breathing against his arm was real. And then, she shifted slightly in her sleep.

She was hunched over a chair.

Detroit’s lips parted, wanting to speak, but no sound came. His throat burned. His body ached. Yet, watchin

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Ryan's Hidden Card

    Ryan~“Enough!” His roar rattled the living room walls. Julia flinched, her words dying in her throat.Ryan could feel his pulse thundering in his ears, every nerve in his body screaming to release the tension curling around his bones. So, he paced. He paced like a caged animal, his fists clenching and unclenching. His mind was a storm, replaying Adele’s face, Adele’s voice, Adele’s smile. He couldn't let her go. No, especially not now that she had the world under her feet. Certainly not now that his own empire was crumbling. He needed her – her name, her money, her heart, their child… he needed them. And then it hit him.Ryan stopped dead in his tracks, his chest rising and falling, eyes widening as the realization crashed into him like lightning.“I didn’t divorce her yet…” he whispered, lips curving into something dangerous. Julia blinked, confused. “What do you mean? Your divorce was finalized.” He lifted his head, meeting her stunned gaze, and repeated louder, firmer, “I did

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Novels Aren't This Fascinating

    Adele~My jaw flexed, tears trailing down my face. My trembling hand slid from his hair down the side of his face, my thumb grazing the corner of his trembling mouth.“Tell me,” I whispered, voice frayed, “how do I not want you?”My knees obeyed me as I sank down in front of him, kneeling with the man who’d hurt our daughter more than anyone else.I should be hating him for what our daughter went through under his roof, but I couldn't. God, I couldn't seek justice for our child. I locked foreheads with him, skin to skin, breath to breath. His lashes fluttered shut, like he was afraid to open his eyes and find me gone.“I can’t,” I choked out, my hands on his cheeks. “I can't even hate you. I want to hate you. But I can’t.”His eyes opened. His hands quivering on my arms. His breath hitched. “Adele…”I drew back just enough to see his face. His eyes were glittering with tears that didn't dare to fall just yet, as they fixed on mine with a kind of naked devotion that seized my breath.

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Accept Me Back

    Adele~Instead of explaining, Detroit stunned me with his action.He bent his knees! The mighty CEO Leighton D. West, the man the world bowed to, the man who never lowered his head for anyone–not even presidents and royalties–was kneeling before me. The crowd stirred, gasped, voices breaking out in shocked whispers and muffled exclamations.“What in the world—”“Did CEO West just kneel?”“He’s actually begging her?”Click! Click! Click! Camera shutters went off like fireworks, each flash illuminating the altar brighter than the chandeliers above us. My heartbeat stuttered, my breath catching in my throat. Detroit didn’t care about any of it – the stares, the murmurs, the chaos. His head tilted slightly up, his silver eyes locking onto mine with a raw vulnerability I had never seen in him.“Adele,” his voice was rough, breaking at the edges, “I found out a couple of days ago. I should have told you the truth then. But I didn’t. And for that, I'm also guilty.”My chest ached. My

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Her Child

    Adele~Standing on the altar again this time was different. A couple of minutes ago, I had no one, but now, I have a family, sitting there and watching me get married to the man I didn't know how I fell in love with. The man who entered my life like a storm and swept me off my feet. I couldn't ask for anything else. Although this situation felt like a dream I didn’t want to wake up from, my mind knew it was my reality now. A reality I couldn't wait to throw myself into. Detroit's hand brushed against mine, pulling my mind back to him. My veil was on again. Sarah had pinned it back in place and told me I needed to get married like the queen I was. Despite myself, a soft laugh had slipped from my lips. But even with my veil on, I could see the restlessness buried underneath his eyes. It was as though he was fighting a battle no one else could see.He’d just given me back my family. My name. My place in the world. And yet, I couldn’t shake the sense that Detroit was hiding something.

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Karma Is A Bitch

    Detroit~This day was never supposed to be about their wedding. It was an event to acknowledge Adele, to protect her, and to put her back in her rightful place.A private reveal would have been best for the Harringtons’ reputation, but Detroit knew the downside of that—these people were obsessed with appearances. If he revealed her lineage in secret, it would only give the monsters time to bury the truth. They could erase Adele again. They could kill the old man. They could silence Alaric.But if he did it in public, on the grandest stage, before the most influential witnesses in the world, Adele would finally be safe. They would have no choice but to recognize her, no choice but to give her back her rights.At first, Detroit only wanted Adele to humiliate Mia and his mother—the two who had dared torment her while he was in a coma. But then his grandmother told him what she knew of Adele’s identity. And everything changed.He thought long and hard about how to execute it. That was whe
