Adele~

“I asked you a question,” I said, sharper this time, my gaze fixed on Julia. “Why are you here?”

She tilted her head, feigning innocence, but her eyes glinted with malice. “Is that how you greet guests, Adele? No wonder no one showed up to your grand opening. Poor etiquette… bad karma, maybe?”

I almost laughed. Almost. But I didn’t give her the satisfaction. Instead, I crossed my arms and said flatly, “Guests get invitations. You got none. So again… why are you here?”

Her smile widened, full of venom. “Ethan wanted to see the resort his mother built. Surely you wouldn’t deny him that, would you?”

Mother. My jaw clenched. I was his mother. She was just the woman who stole my son.

Sarah stepped forward, her voice tight. “With all due respect, ma’am, this event is closed to outsiders. We’ll have to ask you to leave.”

Julia’s gaze flicked to Sarah like she was dirt beneath her heel. “Outsiders?” She chuckled coldly. “Darling, we’re family.”

“Not mine,” I muttered.

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

    Adele~“I didn’t mean to lie,” I whispered. “I’ve… met him. Up close. It was unexpected. But I didn’t know he was your father then.”Silver’s jaw tightened slightly.She closed the sketchpad with a soft thud and finally looked at me, not with hostility, but with a terrifying clarity that shouldn't be found on children like her.“You're in a relationship with my father.”I froze.She continued, voice flat. “My father doesn't get close to anyone unless he has a reason.” she paused. “You're not like Gaya and the others.” Her eyes roamed my face and upper body, “You're not his business partner either, so the only reason he'd take you to an auction and allow a photograph of you both on the internet is if you belong to him.”I flinched.There was no cruelty in her tone. No raised voice. Just brutal, unwavering logic delivered with the same cold accuracy as her father's. My mouth parted, but nothing came out.Silver crossed her arms, leaning her back on the sofa, still watching me. “He does

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Silver's Interrogation

    Adele~I forgot Silver! Lord! They must have left already. Glancing around the lobby, I couldn't find Gaya, nor the two men they came with. This is bad, I mused as I bolted to search for them, leaving Emily and the others baffled. However, when I rushed to the quiet section that was separated from the lobby by glass doors, I found Silver still focused on the sketchpad. But this time, she wasn't sketching. She was using colored pencils. Gaya sat on a different table. She was discussing whatnot with Elijah and Elias. I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, seeing how none of them looked angry over my lack of hospitality. I approached her carefully and sat opposite her. The drawing was alive now. Detroit West – her father. It was no longer just a shadowy outline. The sketch now bloomed with deep reds and burnt oranges, warm brown undertones smudged beneath his cheekbones, and his eyes…those unmistakable, calculating eyes, seemed to stare right back from the paper.Heavens! T

    Adele~“Downgrade a fashion editor or an influencer with millions of followers?” Sarah hissed. “You want us canceled before sunset?!”I held up my hands. “Okay, okay, no downgrades. We’ll fix the hot tub. For now, assign that room to someone who looks like they hate water features.”Sarah and the female staff hurried away, leaving me rummaging my mind for the quickest solution. Mark was better in handling draining emergency issues like this, but unfortunately, as the manager, he had personally escorted some very important guests to their rooms upstairs and was currently giving a tour to a man with a last name that could probably buy everything we're worth.Which meant I was on my own.Great.A receptionist called from the reception desk, waving a notepad. “Two businessmen from the Capital just called and wants a five-day stay. Ms. Adele, what do I tell them?”“There are still rooms, are there not?” I asked, already walking toward her.“They want VIP suites, but we don’t have those an

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

    Adele~ “What's the matter?” The three of them were already in Mark's office. They were freaking out over something. Thinking it was because our launch flopped, I sighed, saying, “It's okay if nobody comes. We'll just do the launch next time. As for the food and drinks, I was thinking we could send them to the orphanage—”Emily shoved a phone into my hands. “Stop talking already, Ma’am CEO?”“L–look at that,” Sarah stammered, pointing at the screen like there was a ghost.I frowned. It was a well known influencer with millions of followers speaking excitedly. But upon listening closely, I realized she was talking about Gaya and a beach resort.It says that Gaya, the fashion queen, has dropped a photo after months of silence, while the public and fans she might not even know she had were begging for a glimpse of her next move.And this time, she delivered with a bang. The screen showed Gaya’s media post: she was wearing the same outfit from earlier, just that this time, her crazy bol

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

    AdeleShe turned fully, facing me now. “How do you know that?” “The way you stare at things, it's more like you're studying them for art.” I paused, “I used to be like that when I was younger. People thought I was just zooming out, but in reality, I was replicating things in my head.” Her mouth twitched. She turned her gaze away and for a long while, none of us spoke. Then, after what seemed like forever, she asked, “Do you have drawing tools?” I beamed, “Of course,” I rose from my seat and went into my office. I'd been against having a personal office, but neither Mark, Sarah, nor Emily would listen. They claimed even though Mark was the manager, and I insisted on holding onto my previous housekeeping job, I still needed my own office as the CEO, even though I wouldn't be using it. At the time, I’d thought they were just being overly dramatic. But right now? I was beyond grateful for their stubbornness.I had the largest office in the building, designed to perfection with soft c

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

    Adele~Then she finally looked up and stepped into the reception, stopping a few feet before Ryan. Every cell in the room froze. As if even the air had the good sense to hold its breath.Removing her sleek sunglasses, she let her icy gaze travel from his shoes up to his face, then gave a small, unimpressed scoff.A few gasps filled the room.Even I couldn’t stop myself from parting my lips in stunned silence.I may not know many people… but not this woman? Gaya? No. Everyone knew Gaya.Back in college, we were made to study her in Fashion Theory class. Slide after slide of her street looks, magazine-captured candids, and blurry coffee-run photos dissected like sacred scripture. Every one of her outfits had gone viral at least once, not because they were designed by someone famous, but because she wore them.This young woman, probably my age or just a year older, wasn’t a model. She didn’t even try to be famous. She just existed and somehow, that alone shaped trends.She was the girl
