The next morning came too quickly.

I was in my study reviewing overnight reports when Reed knocked once and entered without waiting for an answer. His face was carefully neutral, which usually meant bad news.

“Your father is here,” he said. “He’s waiting in the main reception room. He didn’t ask or book an appointment, he just showed up.”

I leaned back in my chair, jaw tightening. Victor Valentino rarely visited unannounced. When he did, it was never for pleasant conversation.

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    BEFORE THE REVEAL

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~I was standing with Kai, Sophia, and Carrie in the private lounge area of the restaurant, away from the main crowd.Carrie was adjusting the hem of my dress, making small tweaks to the already perfect silver fabric."Stop moving," she said, tugging gently at the material. "You're going to mess up the drape.""I'm not moving," I said, but my leg was bouncing slightly.Carrie looked up at me with a knowing expression."Yes, you are," she said. "You're vibrating like a hummingbird. What is going on with you?""Nothing," I said too quickly. "I'm just nervous about the restaurant opening. It's a big night."Sophia was sipping champagne, watching me with an amused expression."It's just a restaurant opening," Kai said from where he was standing. "You've already done the hard part. The place looks incredible.""I know," I said, smoothing down my dress even though it didn't need smoothing. "But there are so many people here. Investors. Business partners. What if something go

    ~~ Melissa's POV ~~I watched Adrian on stage as he spoke.He had really changed. The awkward college guy who had followed me around for three years was completely gone. In his place was a man who looked polished and confident and incredibly handsome. He carried himself with the kind of authority that came from power and success.I had made a mistake turning him down all those times. But that was fine. That was something I could fix.I waited until he came down from the stage, then I made my way over to him, putting on my best smile."Hi," I said softly, stepping into his path.He turned and looked at me, and for a moment, there was no recognition in his eyes."Hi," he said politely."Do you remember me?" I asked. "I'm Melissa Rossi. We went to college together."He paused, and I saw something flicker across his face like a memory or an acknowledgment."Oh, really?" he said, his tone neutral. "I'm not sure I…""Come on," I said, laughing lightly. "You must remember me. You had such a

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    SEDUCE MY COUSIN

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~The MC took the stage as the restaurant filled with guests.I stood to the side with Kai, watching the room, feeling my heart pound in my chest. This was it. This was the moment everything began to shift."Ladies and gentlemen," the MC said, his voice carrying through the restaurant. "Thank you all for coming to celebrate the opening of this beautiful new establishment. We have a special announcement to make this evening."The room quieted."E&H Investments," the MC continued, "one of the most prestigious investment companies in the world, has chosen to make a special appearance at tonight's opening. They are here, and we are honored to welcome them."The whispers started immediately. I could hear them rippling through the crowd like waves."What? E&H Investments? Here?""Why would they come to a mere restaurant opening?""Do you think they're announcing something?""Maybe they're opening a branch here and wanted to do it somewhere special.""The COO is so handsome.

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    MY MISTAKE, MY CHOICE

    ~~ Kai's POV ~~I pulled Hazel aside before her family could cause any more damage."Are you okay?" I asked, studying her face carefully.She looked up at me and smiled, and it was genuine."I'm fine," she said. "Kai, I'm fine. This is nothing new. My family has always been like this–a mess. They've always chosen Melissa and their business. They've never chosen me. So this? This isn't surprising. This is just who they are.""They came uninvited to your restaurant opening and made fun of you, that’s not something you should let slide." I emphasized."I know," she said. "But I'm not going to let them ruin this day for me. This is my moment. I'm not going to waste energy on people who have never supported me."There was a strength in her voice that I hadn't heard before. A certainty.I was about to respond when I saw my father walk in.Victor Valentino moved through the restaurant like he owned it, his gaze sharp and assessing. When he saw Hazel, he offered a tight smile that didn't reac

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    D-DAY: RESTAURANT OPENING

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~I woke up feeling different.Everything about the world looked different. Everything felt different. The morning light coming through the windows seemed brighter, the air seemed lighter and my body felt stronger.This was it.This was the day I had been waiting for.I got out of bed and walked to my closet. Today wasn't about being someone's wife or someone's daughter or someone's victim. Today was about being me. Fully me. Completely me.Lucia knocked on my door before I could even decide what to wear."Good morning, Miss Hazel," she said, her face already smiling like she could feel the energy radiating off me. "Are you ready for your big day?""I'm all ready," I smiled."I have someone here who wants to help you get ready," she said. "Her name is Gabriella. She's a designer. She came to make sure you look absolutely stunning."Gabriella was waiting in my room with garment bags, makeup cases and a presence that immediately made me feel like I was in the hands of so

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    TERRIFIED ABOUT TOMORROW

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~I sat on the edge of my bed and stared at my phone.Tomorrow.Tomorrow it would all happen. Tomorrow the restaurant would open. E&H Investments would be there. Everything would change. Everything would shift. The secret I had been keeping locked away would finally come to light.And I was terrified.My hands were shaking. My heart was racing. I felt like I couldn't breathe properly. I stood up and walked to the window, looking out at the city lights stretched below me. Somewhere out there was my restaurant. Somewhere out there were people preparing for the opening. Somewhere out there was my grandmother, probably finalizing her speech.And somewhere out there was Kai, who had no idea that his world was about to be turned upside down.I sat back on the bed and called Sophia.She answered on the first ring like she knew I was going to call."Hey," she said softly. "You're freaking out, right?""I'm not freaking out," I said, even though I absolutely was. "I'm just... I
