Betrayed By The Billionaire 296
The air in the cold, cavernous living room felt thin as Maddy looked up at her mother with eyes that held too much clarity for a three-year-old. "Mommy," she whispered, her voice trembling. "Are you going to divorce Daddy?"Sarah Vance froze. She didn't have an answer. In the elite world of Haicheng, divorce wasn't just a signature; it was a war of attrition. She would sign the papers in a heartbeat if Arthur Vance surrendered custody of Maddy, but she knew the Vance family ego. They viewed heirs as property. Arthur would never let her walk away with his "bloodline" without a fight that would leave them both in ruins."Daddy isn't coming home... is it because there’s a pretty lady outside?" Maddy asked suddenly.Sarah’s heart skipped a beat. A cold, prickling sensation crawled up her spine. "Maddy... who told you that? Where did you hear such a thing?""A pretty lady told me," Maddy said, clutching Sarah’s hand. "She said she was going to be Maddy’s new mommy. She bought me lots of ca

Little Maddy was paralyzed with terror. Tears streamed down her flushed face as she wailed, her small voice cracking under the strain. "Daddy, it’s not Mommy’s fault! I guessed it! Mommy didn't say anything to me, I promise..."It was the heartbreaking truth. Even in the depths of her fever and betrayal, Sarah Vance had not uttered a single disparaging word about Arthur Vance to their daughter. She had guarded Arthur’s image like a sacred relic, even as he systematically dismantled her life.But Arthur was beyond the reach of truth. His guilt had curdled into a defensive malice that required a villain, and he had chosen Sarah.He stooped down and scooped Maddy up into his arms, his eyes burning with a cold, righteous fury. "You aren't fit to be her mother," he snarled at Sarah. "You don't know how to raise a daughter. Fine. I’ll find someone who does."Someone who does? The implication hit Sarah like a physical blow. The air left her lungs as the horror of his intent dawned on her. He

Standing in the cold light of the breakfast nook, Sarah Vance felt the last pillars of her world turn to dust. She remembered the promises—the whispered vows in the rain, the way Arthur Vance had once looked at her as if she were the sun itself.For seven years, she had poured her youth, her ambition, and her heart into their home. She had been his strategist, his confidante, and the mother of his child. Yet now, the man standing before her spoke as if her life had been a series of charitable donations. He had forgotten the nights he spent pacing outside her door, begging for a chance. He had forgotten how he had knelt, weeping with joy, when she finally said "I do."Now, he looked at her with the clinical detachment of a liquidator. Every luxury he had once draped over her with "love" was now being used as a ledger of her debt to him. At this moment, Sarah realized with a haunting clarity that she had fed her soul to a wolf."So," Sarah whispered, her voice cracking under the weight

After Tiffany’s dramatic exit, Master Marcus Sr. turned his thunderous gaze toward Aunt Sarah. "You still have the face to stand there?" he roared, his voice trembling with a patriarch’s indignation. "Go upstairs and see to the daughter you’ve 'educated' so poorly!"Aunt Sarah, still tethered by a lingering fear of the old man’s authority, shot a resentful mutter toward Chloe Bishop. "Look at what you’ve done, Chloe. We’re supposed to be one family, and you’ve gone and turned us into strangers." With a huff of indignation, she gathered her skirts and hurried up the stairs after her daughter.Chloe almost laughed at the sheer absurdity of it. If it weren't for the deep respect she held for her grandparents, she would have called security to escort the "eccentric" pair out right then. Her gaze finally drifted to Silas, who had remained silent throughout the skirmish."And you?" Chloe asked tonelessly. "What’s your take on this?"Silas looked away. He knew his mother and sister were in t

The digital storm was intensifying by the second. This wasn’t Yvonne Blue’s first time in the crosshairs; Sarah Vance had exposed her months ago for a failed seduction attempt. Back then, Arthur Vance had stood firmly by his wife’s side. But this time, the "White Lotus" had succeeded.In the court of public opinion, a mistress who repeatedly dismantles families is treated like a street rat—shunned, cursed, and hunted. Arthur was drowning in the fallout as well, his reputation as a "loyal husband" vaporizing instantly. The Vance Group’s stock was already showing signs of a volatile downward trend. Arthur was a shark of the business world; he wouldn't sit idly by while his empire bled out. He would strike back to salvage his image.Chloe Bishop felt a cold dread settle in her marrow. If Arthur had a shred of decency left, he would return to his family, leaving Yvonne to face the music alone as the primary scapegoat.But Chloe knew Arthur. Right now, he likely hated Sarah with a lethal i

Chloe Bishop offered her mother a small, cold smile of reassurance. "Don't worry, Mom. Now that we know it’s a person playing God with my head, the game changes entirely."The clues from Master Marcus Sr. had crystallized her resolve. If the "thing" cast a shadow and possessed the strength to strike a blow, then it was flesh and blood—and flesh and blood could be hunted. She would return to the Grayson Estate, pull the "mole" out by the roots, and prove her sanity to Xavier Grayson once and for all.A sharp knock interrupted them, and Aunt Sarah bustled into the room, her face a mask of practiced concern. "Chloe! I heard you fainted. Are you alright, dear?" Tiffany trailed behind her, her expression unreadable.Aunt Sarah sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to grasp Chloe’s hand with a cloying familiarity. "Tiffany told me everything. Someone in that Grayson house is truly wicked to play such tricks on you. What a sin!"Chloe felt a flare of discomfort and pulled her hand away, h
