Adele~

“Adele! So, it's true!”

Oh, tell me about a warm welcome from a stranger hanging around my resort like some decoration I didn’t order. My eyes flicked to the source of the voice, and there she was in her well pressed brown uniform…. Matron Nathalie.

The same woman who tortured the living heaven out of me in that orphanage.

For a second, my chest tightened, my breath catching in my throat. Memories slammed into me with brutal force—the cold tile floors, the stale bread, the nights I cried myself to sleep while her footsteps echoed down the halls like a monster’s lullaby. And now, here she was, standing on polished marble under crystal chandeliers, as if she belonged in my world.

She hadn’t changed much. The same pinched lips, the same sharp eyes that could peel a child’s soul bare with just one glance. Except now she wore pearls and silk instead of her stiff, gray orphanage uniform. Money hadn’t softened her—it had just dressed her cruelty in prettier fabric.

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Her Life In The Orphanage

    Adele~Her smile froze on her face and she gasped, “Was that what he told you, that we took his money?” she continued before I could retort. “How could we sell you off, Adele? You were family, whether you agreed or not.” she sighed, “Our relationship may not have been the best, but we never thought of selling you off, you can confront your ex-husband if you don't believe me.”I frowned. Ryan and I went to the orphanage before our wedding. I didn't want to see anyone, so I went off on my own, wandering around the place and recalling memories I wished I never had. After a few hours, he came to find me in the playground I was never allowed to go close to – with Director Maggie and Matron Nathaniel beside him, having some discussions while laughing and smiling. How else could those two she-wolves in human clothing laugh like that if not over money? They never laughed with me, never smiled at me – unless it was to mock my pain or sweeten their cruelty. But that day, they not only smiled,

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    The Veiled Threat

    “If you like that girl, Mia so much, why don't you marry her to your first son? I heard he's divorced and useless. Perhaps, with the Harringtons, he may rise again.” With that, Madam Helena picked up her tea again. Lorraine’s smile froze, though her nails dug crescent moons into her palm on her lap. “Mother, you jest cruelly,” she said, her tone light but strained. “You know well the Harringtons would never tolerate a divorced man at Mia’s side. Detroit is their chosen groom, and only he can cement that alliance.”Madam Helena raised the cup, with the lid, she moved the tea leaves without taking her eyes off them. “Yet, they're willing to marry their treasured daughter to a man who had a child out of wedlock?”“She's not his child!”Madam Helena paused and slowly lifted her head and they locked cold eyes. Sparks flew and static rented the air as tension rose between them. After what seemed like forever, where neither of them wanted to back down, Mrs. Lorraine finally smiled faintly

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Wedding Arrangement

    And such a woman, Adele had dared to unwittingly provoke. And she had dropped her unfinished business abroad to come home, all for the threat that Adele and Detroit's relationship has posed. It began with an auction appearance. Her son had allowed the photo he took with that divorcee to linger online for an entire hour. If she hadn’t ordered it removed, the image would still be paraded by gossip-mongers, feeding the illusion that Detroit West was entangled with someone other than the woman he was meant to marry. Then came the unverified, yet persistent reports that he was spending nights at the divorcee’s resort. Nights. The word itself dripped of scandal. If the Harringtons caught wind of it, the marriage talks with their heiress, Mia, would collapse instantly, and that would reek of trouble for the West. The country stood on three legs: West at the forefront, Harrington and Mercer trailing just behind, sharpening their knives in silence. A single misstep could tilt the balance,

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Mrs. Lorraine West

    Capital City~At a high-end spa, two women in their mid or late forties laid on their chests while a soft waterfall hummed in the background, blending with the faint strains of classical piano. Warm towels wrapped around their hips, their backs glistened with scented oil under the glow of low golden lights.Two female therapists moved quietly between them, hands strong yet gentle, pressing into tired muscles with practiced ease. "God, this place," murmured the first woman with red hair, her voice muffled against the headrest. "Reminds me why I still tolerate this city."The other with black hair chuckled, eyes closed. "Right? After three divorces and a mayoral scandal, I deserve this.""You were barely involved in that scandal,” her friend countered with rolling eyes. “The West protects you like a mother hen protects her chicks.”Her black-haired woman chuckled richly, "I was quoted in the Post. That’s involvement."“And the editor made a public apology and lost his job.” There was a

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

    Adele~I shuffled back into the bedroom, towel wrapped around my steamy body, hair dripping warm water down my shoulders and back. Every step felt like I was damaging my holy core.Well, I didn’t want to nag myself to death but come on, I have a resort to run, things to do, errands to juggle, and God help me – PR work that required me to sit in a chair for hours without hissing like a cat in a bathtub.“And what am I supposed to wear?” I muttered, glancing around. The battlefield from last night had been wiped clean. No bra hanging off the lamp, no boxers clinging desperately to the door handle, and certainly no sex aroma in the air. Just perfume. An intoxicating Detroit perfume that only teased my brain and tingled my aching core. “Behave, little hoe,” I cursed, closing my legs and wincing when it stung. Then, there was the black shopping bag sitting innocently on the bed, glossy and expensive-looking. The luxury logo screamed money. I managed my way over, opened the bag and pulle
