Outside, the night air was sharp with cold, stars impossibly bright in the clear mountain sky. I sat on the porch steps, my breath clouding before me, and tried to make sense of everything I'd learned.

Three families—the Thornes, the Russos, the Kingstons—tangled together decades before I was born, their ambitions and betrayals setting the course for my entire life. I'd been born into one, stolen by another, married into the third. Every major relationship in my life had been shaped by this ancient wrong, this messiness.

And now I held the proof of it all, the key to potentially destroying careers, legacies, reputations. I could bring my parents down with this evidence. Could implicate the Thornes in the cover-up that followed. Could reveal that Giuseppe Russo had known all along who had taken me and why.

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   Chapter 217: Alex's Confession (Alex POV)

    Marcus found me at the gym, which should have been my first warning. He never came to the gym. Said the smell of other people's ambition made him nauseous."Board meeting," he said without preamble, dropping onto the bench next to me. "Emergency session. Day after tomorrow."I set down the weights, sweat dripping onto the mat. "What kind of emergency?""The kind where they vote to strip Maya's rights and hand everything back to your favorite psychopath."My towel slipped from my hands. "Daniel?""Unless you know another psychopath gunning for her position." Marcus pulled out his phone, showing me something—an email, maybe, or a document. The words blurred together. "Your future father-in-law's been busy. Got half the board ready to declare Maya mentally unfit.""She's not—" I stopped. Grabbed my water bottle just to have something to do with my hands. "How do you know this?"Marcus gave me that look. The one that said I was being particularly stupid. "I know things. It's literally wha

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   Allies that Still Stand

    MayaVincent arrived at exactly 10 AM the next morning, carrying a leather briefcase."Ms. Vega." He took in my appearance without comment. He was professional to the core."Come in." I led him to the living room, which I'd attempted to clean. Mostly just meant shoving things into the kitchen.He set his briefcase on the coffee table, movements precise and deliberate. "How are you?""Never better." I collapsed onto the couch. "How's Grandfather?"Vincent's pause told me everything. "He's tired. The last few months have taken their toll.""Is it worse?"The blunt question made Vincent flinch slightly. "His doctors are... cautiously optimistic.""So yes.""Ms. Vega—""It's fine. I get it. The old man holds on just long enough to hand me everything, then checks out before I fuck it up completely." I pulled my knees to my chest. "That’s very on-brand for my life."Vincent pulled out a stack of documents instead of responding to my self-pity."We need to discuss the board's powers and your

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   Vincent's Call

    MayaThe envelope slid under my door at 7:43 AM.I knew because I'd been staring at my coffee maker for the past twenty minutes, watching it drip like some kind of meditation exercise. Or maybe just because watching coffee brew was about all the human interaction I could handle these days.The sound—that soft whisper of paper on hardwood—made me freeze. Nobody slid things under doors anymore. They texted. They emailed. They left voicemails I could delete without listening to.This felt different. Official.Wrong.I approached it like it might explode. Cream-colored envelope, expensive paper. My name written in fountain pen—actual fountain pen—in handwriting I recognized but couldn't place.Inside, a single page with the Russo Designs letterhead. The kind of formal notice that made my stomach drop before I even read it.Ms. Maya Vega is hereby notified of an emergency meeting of the Board of Directors of Russo Designs, to be held...Two days. They were giving me two fucking days.My ph

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   Saving A Sinking Ship

    OliviaI'd just started my fourth cup of coffee when Sarah walked in like she owned the place."You look terrible," she announced, setting a bakery box on my desk. "You don’t look like you have been eating"I have been eating. But stress just has its way of making you look miserable. "I'm fine.""Fatshit." She opened the box, revealing pastries that would cost more than my hourly rate. "Eat. We need to talk.""About?""Maya. How we're going to fix this mess.""We?" I selected a croissant, mainly to shut her up. "Since when is there a we?"Sarah settled into the chair across from my desk

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   The Foundation In Shambles

    OliviaMy office looked like a paper bomb had gone off.Donor lists covered every surface—desk, chairs, even the floor where I'd started making separate piles for "definitely gone," "maybe salvageable," and "too polite to say fuck off directly." The phone hadn't stopped ringing since nine AM, each call following the same depressing script."We heard about the Henderson Foundation's decision...""Of course we still believe in Maya's vision, but...""Perhaps we should reassess after things stabilize..."Corporate speak for "we're out." Every single one of them.I'd just finished another round of verbal gymnastics with th

  • Divorced My CEO Husband, He Came Begging   Alex’s Attempts II

    AlexBack in my office, I pulled the photos from my safe, spreading them across my desk only long enough for Marcus to understand what we were dealing with.The email had come through an encrypted server on the same day I and Maya had dinner with her parents. Just a smug message, then the image attachments.The violation of it made me sick every time I looked at them.Marcus sat across from me, professional as always, but I could see the disgust in his eyes. Not at the photos themselves—he'd averted his gaze after the first one—but at the violation they represented."I don't need to see more," he'd said, pushing them back across the desk after barely glancing at the first one. "I get the picture.""We've tried everything," he continued, keeping his eyes on my face, not the photos. "Their cyber security is military-grade. Whoever Daniel hired knows what they're doing. He’s a real psycho to go that far because of a Ex""There has to be a way.""Maybe if we had more time, more resources—
