Chaos was already waiting for Alexander and Isabella the moment they touched down in New York.

Roosevelt greeted them at the airport with fear in his eyes. "You need to see this. Now."

“What happened?” Alexander asked sharply.

Roosevelt didn't respond. He only unlocked his tablet and held it out.

A headline flashed upon the screen:

"LEAKED AUDIO RECORDINGS REVEAL ALEXANDER STEELE AND ISABELLA CARTER AS TOXIC COUPLE THAT ARE DESTROYING THEIR COMPANIES."

Isabella froze.

"What audios?" she whisper

  • Betrayed by the Man I Loved   Eighty-One

    “Alex—” Isabella gasped, another contraction tearing through her. “It’s too fast… it’s too fast!”Alexander squeezed her shaking hands, refusing to let go. “Bella, breathe. I’m right here, okay?”The sheets were soaked where her water had broken. Her face looked so pale, sweat clinging to her hairline, breath coming in frantic bursts. Everything felt urgent.He snatched up his phone, fingers fumbling, and called Dr. Mason. “Doctor, it’s happening. Now. Her water just broke and the contractions—”“Get her here right away. I’ll have the team ready,” Dr. Mason said.Alexander dropped the phone, scooped Isabella into his arms, and yelled, “Kaya!”She came running. “Sir—”“Call the driver! Hurry!” he snapped.“Yes, sir!”Isabella clung to his shirt, breathing hard. “Alex… I can’t walk.”“You’re not walking,” he said, already lifting her. “I’ve got you. Just hold on.”He carried her downstairs, where Ethan stepped out, rubbing sleep from his eyes.“Daddy? Mommy? What’s happening?”Alexander

  • Betrayed by the Man I Loved   Eighty

    The house felt weirdly quiet after the madness earlier. The police were gone. Neighbors slipped back inside. Even the wind outside seemed to have calmed down, like the world finally decided to let them breathe.Isabella stood in the living room, staring at the door long after Alexander came back from dealing with Tracy. She didn’t even know what she was waiting for—maybe anger, maybe something else—but when he finally walked in, all she saw was him. Nothing else mattered.He caught her eye right away.“Bella,” he whispered.And that was it.She ran to him, burying her face in his chest. Her whole body shook. Everything she’d been holding back—fear for Ethan, the sting of Claire’s betrayal, the relief that Maya stepped up, the bone-deep exhaustion—it just poured out.Alexander pulled her in closer, like he was afraid she’d slip away. “You didn’t deserve any of this,” he said into her hair. “Not a single thing.”Isabella couldn’t answer. Her tears said everything.Ethan peeked around Ka

    The second Claire broke free from the officers and bolted for the door with Liam clutched in her arms, the living room exploded. People shouted. Furniture rattled. Alexander tore after her, yelling, “Stop her!”But Claire had a head start, and she ran like she meant it. Her hair flew behind her, wild and messy, as she tore out of the mansion, holding a terrified Liam tight against her chest.“Claire, wait!” one officer called, sprinting after them.Isabella just stood there, frozen, her hand pressed over her heart. Ethan tugged at her dress, eyes wide. “Mommy, is Liam okay?” he whispered.She crouched, kissed his forehead. “He will be, sweetheart. I promise.”Kaya appeared, scooped Ethan up, and hurried him inside. Isabella turned and ran after Alexander and the swarm of officers.By the time they got outside, Claire was already at the gate, kicking it open, her voice echoing down the quiet street. “Nobody is taking Liam away from me! Nobody!”She barely made it to the road before a b

    Isabella didn’t have the luxury of hesitation. She had one shot—just one—to end this, to drag Claire’s secrets out into the open, and finally free Alexander from the weight he’d carried for too long. Tonight, she’d let the truth loose, no matter what it cost.By the time evening settled in, the dining hall glowed with soft, golden light. Candles flickered along the long table, making everything look almost peaceful. Too peaceful, really, for what was coming.Alexander walked in first. He was fussing with his shirt, looking worn out but steady. “You didn’t say anything about dinner guests, Isabella.”She kept her voice low. “Just a little gathering. Family. A few close friends.”He nodded but didn’t hide his confusion.Roosevelt arrived right after, polite as always. Lisa came in with flowers and leaned close, whispering, “You look stronger today.”Isabella managed a small smile. “Thanks.”And then Claire walked through the door.Her smile was painted on, her makeup perfect, her moveme

  • Betrayed by the Man I Loved   Seventy-Seven

    Claire left the Steele mansion late that morning, poured into a white dress that hugged her too tight and wearing sunglasses a little too big for her face. She walked like the world was hers and everyone else just lived in it.She didn’t know someone was waiting right outside her favorite Saturday café.“Oops! I’m so sorry! Are you alright?”A woman bumped into her. Claire wobbled, caught herself. Maya.Maya looked nothing like herself—hair loose, clothes soft and plain, almost shy. Not the sharp investigator she really was.Claire steadied her bag and herself. “It’s fine. You should watch where you’re going, though.”Maya put on this sweet, apologetic smile. “I know, I’m so clumsy. Wait—” She gasped, eyes wide. “Are you Claire? Claire Benson?”Claire blinked. “You... know me?”“Oh my God,” Maya said, hand to her chest, acting half starstruck. “I saw you the day you arrived at the Steele mansion. You’re even prettier in person.”Claire’s lips curled up right away. She lived for this k

    The café was nearly empty—so quiet, Isabella could practically hear her own heartbeat thumping in her chest. She sat tucked away at a corner table, hands wrapped around a warm mug she barely even sipped. Head down, cap pulled low, glasses on. No one would guess she ran Noble Best. Or that she was married to Alexander Steele.A soft voice came from behind. “Mrs. Carter?”Isabella looked up to see Maya Brooks. Maya slid into the chair across from her, wearing a black jacket, eyes sharp and restless.“You weren’t followed,” Maya said right away, saving Isabella the trouble of asking. “I checked. Twice.”Isabella nodded. “Good. What did you find?”Maya took a slim envelope from inside her jacket and set it in front of Isabella. “This is the real DNA result. The one they changed.”Isabella’s fingers shook as she opened it. She read the paper once. Twice. A third time, just to be sure. Then she leaned back and let out a slow breath.“Liam isn’t Alexander’s son.”“Not even close,” Maya s

  • Betrayed by the Man I Loved   Twenty-Four

    Sitting on her bed that morning in her apartment, with her son healing fast, Isabella sat with the letter still in her hands. She had read it over and over through the night until the words burnt into her heart.“I never stopped loving you.”Those words broke something inside her and healed another

    The morning sun rose above the city, but for Alexander Steele, the day was darker than ever. He hadn't slept a wink. What Isabella had said still rang in his mind: "I'm a mother first."He sat in his office, staring blankly at the headlines that flooded every news channel: "ISABELLA CARTER TO HOLD

    Victor offered her a seat on the couch as he went inside the kitchen to get water.Isabella was impatient as she watched him pour the glass of water into a glass and offered it to her. “This will help you relax.”She took the water and put it on the table.“So what solution do you have because I r
