My hands were shaking so badly I could barely keep the car between the lines on the way back to the mansion.

By the time I pulled into the long driveway, the headlights cutting through the darkening dusk, the heavy lump in my throat felt like it was suffocating me. I turned off the engine and sat in the dark interior of the car. The quiet was deafening.

Suspended.

The word kept repeating in my head, loud and cruel. Security guards stepping on either side of me. The quiet gasps of my staff as I

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    MY SAFE HAVEN

    My hands were shaking so badly I could barely keep the car between the lines on the way back to the mansion.By the time I pulled into the long driveway, the headlights cutting through the darkening dusk, the heavy lump in my throat felt like it was suffocating me. I turned off the engine and sat in the dark interior of the car. The quiet was deafening.Suspended.The word kept repeating in my head, loud and cruel. Security guards stepping on either side of me. The quiet gasps of my staff as I walked past their cubicles. The way the elevator doors closed on all those staring eyes.A sob tore out of my chest before I could stop it. I slammed my hands against the steering wheel, hot tears finally spilling over my eyelashes and burning down my cheeks.I couldn't hold it together anymore. I had acted brave in front of my grandmother, but sitting alone in the car, I felt completely destroyed. They had taken my company. They had called me a thief.I wiped my face with the back of my sleeve,

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    A TASTE OF VICTORY

    Melissa’s POV The air inside Damon’s executive suite was thick with the scent of expensive cologne and sour whiskey. For weeks, walking into this room felt like stepping into an emergency room. Damon had been pacing back and forth, snapping at his secretaries, slamming doors, and losing sleep over the supplier blockade Hazel had wrapped around Moretti Group’s neck. Today, the energy in the room was completely different. I stood in the doorway for a second, holding a bottle of vintage champagne in one hand and two tall crystal glasses in the other. Damon was sitting behind his wide mahogany desk, leaning back in his leather chair with a drink in his hand. His desk phone receiver was still resting on its base, but the smile on his face was wider than I had seen in months. "I take it you got the call?" I asked, stepping into the room and closing the heavy oak door quietly behind me. Damon looked up, his eyes bright with relief. "She’s gone, Melissa. Hazel Sinclair is officially gon

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    TASTING HER DISHES

    Reed’s POV I balanced the bottle of vintage red wine in one hand and knocked on Sophia’s apartment door with the other. Honestly, l don’t know why l agreed to do this food tasting with her but l just couldn’t watch her struggle looking for a food taster to review her dishes. So l offered to help. A few seconds later, the lock clicked, and the door swung open. Sophia stood there in a cozy oversized sweater with her dark hair pulled back into a messy bun. She held her phone between her shoulder and ear, holding up one finger to tell me to wait a moment. "I'm so glad to hear he's doing better, Hazel," Sophia said into the phone, stepping back to let me inside. "Make sure you get some rest too, okay? Call me tomorrow after he gets home." She hung up, let out a soft breath, and set her phone down on the entry table. "How are they?" I asked, setting the w

    Hazel’s POV"Grandma," I said, my voice shaking slightly as I stood on the cold stone steps outside ENH headquarters. "We have a massive problem at the office.""Take a deep breath, Hazel," Grandma Margaret’s voice came through the line, calm and steady as always. "Are you in a safe place to talk?""I'm in my car," I said, opening the door and slipping into the driver's seat. I pulled the door shut, cutting off the noise of the street traffic. "They just suspended me. The Internal Audit Committee brought me into the boardroom, showed me a modified bank slip tied to a five million dollar machinery contract I signed, and accused me of stealing three million dollars."There was a short silence on the other end of the line. I could hear the quiet click of her teacup setting down on a saucer."Did you sign the master approval, Hazel?" she asked quietly."Yes, for the real equipment lease!" I said, gripping the steering wheel so hard my knuckles turned white. "But

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    SUSPENDED EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

    Hazel’s POVI walked through the glass doors of E&H headquarters feeling lighter than I had in weeks. The morning air was crisp, and for the first time since Kai’s attack, I felt completely focused. I held my warm coffee cup in one hand, ready to head up to the executive suite and tackle the heavy machinery lease approvals for our upcoming site developments.Everything was moving according to plan. Damon and Melissa were trapped against the wall, and Moretti Group was hemorrhaging money by the day.But the moment the elevator doors slid open on the top floor, the atmosphere shifted.The usual busy hum of the executive floor was gone. Instead, an uncomfortable silence hung in the hallway. Two junior accountants standing near the printer stopped talking the second they saw me, quickly ducking their heads and hurrying off in the opposite direction.I frowned, setting my coffee cup on my desk as I reached my office.Before I could sit down, my desk phone buzzed, and Lisa walked in without

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    DESPERATE PEOPLE DO DANGEROUS THINGS

    Hazel’s POVI woke up slowly, feeling a gentle warmth against my cheek. I was still curled up in the armchair beside Kai’s bed, my hand resting softly over his. When I looked up, I saw Kai staring down at me, a calm smile on his face. His fingers were gently twirling a strand of my hair."Morning, sleepyhead," Kai whispered, his voice quiet and raspy from sleep."Good morning," I murmured, stretching my neck and sitting up a little higher. "How are you feeling today? Are you in any pain?""I feel much better," he said, giving my hand a small squeeze. "Especially waking up with you right here."I smiled, leaning forward to press a gentle kiss to his forehead. After everything we had been through over the past few weeks, sitting here with him in this quiet room felt like a blessing.Before I could say anything else, the heavy door to the VIP suite pushed open. Dr. Lorenzo walked in holding a metal clipboard, followed by a nurse carrying a fresh breakfast tray."Good morning, lovers," Dr

    I stood at the top of the stairs, completely frozen, unable to move, unable to process what had just happened."No," I whispered. "No, no, no.
