Emily nodded slowly, her eyes red and hollow. “Everything. It’s like they wanted to erase us.”

I barely heard them. My mind was spinning so fast it felt like I was being dragged underwater. I'd just thought I found a place to hide. A place to start over!

What would I do after this? Where would I go?! I have no money!

My stomach twisted painfully, and for a brief moment, I thought I might throw up right there between the fancy velvet chairs and gold-rimmed glasses.

Sarah’s voice cut sharply through my haze. “Who owns Our Family Resort?” she demanded.

Emily gave a shaky laugh, bitter and humorless. “Nobody knows. It’s buried under layers of dummy companies and shell corporations. Mark tried to trace it once... but he hit a dead end every time. It’s like the people behind it don’t want anyone to find them.”

I pressed a hand against my chest, willing my heart to slow down.

Dead ends. Living in the shadows… It was exactly Ryan's style.

Was he truly just a coincidence? Our Family

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Torture and Tenderness

    Trigger Warning: This chapter is messy. Proceed with caution Detroit~She trembled, her breath coming out in shallow pants, but she didn’t dare move with the knife still pressed to her neck.Her son was a psychopath when angry. She knew this much, but never in a million years did she suspect he'd ever turn his blade to her…his mother. Satisfied with the cooperative reaction, he lowered the knife and wiped it across her white nightgown, staining the expensive silk with her own blood. His smirk returned, slow and lethal. “Mother, you're bleeding. Where is your first aid kit?”Mrs. Lorraine blinked at him in disbelief, unable to tell if he was mocking her or genuinely serious. Her hand instinctively pressed harder against her cheek, warm blood seeping through her fingers. “Leigh… stop this madness. I will not—”“First aid kit,” Detroit repeated, sharper this time. He straightened, looming over her like judgment itself, his knife idly twirling between his fingers. “Go fetch it.”Her bre

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    A Monster She Raised

    Trigger Warning: These chapter is messy. Read with care. ***Detroit~The West main mansion was vast with tens of bedrooms, mini living rooms for each wing, and a massive major living room, mostly occupied by maids cleaning or Silver painting, but at this hour of the night, not a single buzz could be heard, let alone a soul wandering.Yet, at a time like this, when evil spirits were roaming the kitchen searching for leftovers, Detroit West was seated in a dark room, merging with the darkness.Click!The lighter flicked open. Flame sparked to life, dancing against the shadows, illuminating the sharp edges of his face.The flames died when he released his thumb.Click!It came back alive once more, brightening his profile. The sound of the clicking lighter in a deadly quiet and dark room was enough to squeeze fear out of even the bravest soul, let alone someone who just stirred awake from her sleep. The bedside light snapped on, her hand simultaneously reaching under her pillow. In a

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Truth Demands Consequences

    Adele~ A deep, low laugh rumbled out of him, dark and heavy, like thunder rolling through the room. I froze, my fork halfway to my lips. “What?” My voice cracked with impatience and unease. “What does it say?” He didn’t answer. Instead, he leaned back in his chair, the paper hanging loosely between his fingers, his head tilted as though he were digesting more than just words on a page. “Detroit,” I snapped, my heartbeat loud in my ears. Finally, he looked at me, his lips curling into the faintest, most dangerous smile I’d ever seen on him. “She’s mine.” I blinked. The air in my lungs stalled. “She’s…what?” He lifted the paper, shook it once like it was a trophy, then set it down on the table with calmness that reminded you of a calm before the storm. “Silver. She’s my daughter.” Relief hit me so hard I almost laughed. For weeks, maybe months, I had carried the weight of watching him deny, resist, and push away the truth he didn’t want to face. And now…now there was no running

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    The DNA Result

    Adele~ Towards evening, I received a parcel from St. Claire hospital in regards to Silver and Detroit's DNA test. Staring down at the brown envelope, I was tempted to open it, but it wasn't mine to open, so I left it on my seat and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. ‘So now what, Adele?’ I asked myself. What's the best way to make Julia and Ryan suffer without having blood on my hands? It was easier to send a hitman after them, extract information from them through torture and blow their brains out. I swear, it was tempting. But God forbid I stain my hands with their blood. God forbid I give them a quick death. I want them to suffer. I mean really suffer. Not the kind of suffering that comes from pain that fades in hours, but the kind that eats into their marrow, day after day, until they wish death would take them, and still, it doesn’t. So, what should I do? Hmm…get Roman to divorce Julia? Of course I would. Whether they liked it or not, they must get divorced. I refus

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Kindness That Rewards

    Adele~I'd be a pathological liar if I said that Mia’s visit didn't leave me miserable. Even though I wanted to convince myself that I walked away having the last words, her words remained hooked in my chest, squeezing my lungs until my breathing was ragged. And the worst of what she said was, “Your stubbornness already put your son in the ground…” True, had it not been for my stubbornness, Ethan would still be Julia's puppet. No, scratch it – she was his mother. I'd have still been in the dark. So, my stubbornness saved me. I think. But this time, it was different. Detroit wasn't Ethan. And his world was obviously more dangerous than living in the orphanage. So, should I leave him? I shook my head, that was out of the question. I love that man. But love didn't save Elisa. If they could kill a pregnant woman carrying the future heir of the West family, then what chance did I stand?The thought coiled cold in my gut, pressing so heavily against my chest that I had to grab the wall

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Elegance Meets Fury

    Adele~Mia’s smile shifted then, no longer soft, no longer veiled in false kindness. It hardened, sharpened, until the cafeteria itself seemed to bend around her presence. This was the Mia Harrington everyone bowed to, the untouchable heiress who’d been born with the world at her feet.“I knew you were stubborn,” she said smoothly, her voice now edged with steel. “But your stubbornness has already put your son in the ground—or close to it. And now, you want to drag Leigh down like you did that boy and your ex-husband?”The words pierced me before I could even build a wall. My throat closed, and for a breath, my chest hollowed like she’d scooped the air out of me.She saw it. She knew she’d struck blood. I shouldn't give her the pleasure of seeing me cracking but I couldn't do it. “You know nothing about me.” My voice hardened, and my eyes flared, fierce and unyielding. “You think you can scare me with threats, with whispers of danger, with your perfect little stories? I’ve stared dea
