~~Kai's POV~~

I left Hazel’s room with a heavy feeling in my chest.

She had looked so small lying there, still pale from passing out in the car. I wanted to stay, every part of me wanted to sit beside her bed until she woke up again. But the Sullivans were pushing, and if I let them think I was distracted, they would keep pushing harder.

One of my men named Marco was waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs with four of my other men, Marco was my second hand man after Reed. Since Reed had alr

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    DON'T LEAVE ME

    I was still packing when Kai entered without knocking.I froze mid-fold, a silk blouse still in my hands. For a moment we both stood frozen, none of us knowing what to say or how to start a conversation. The air between us felt thick, heavy with three weeks of silence and longing."Hi," he said simply.And my heart stopped."Hi," I said back, my voice small. "I was just... I was packing. I didn't mean to interrupt anything. I'll just finish up and leave right after. I promise I won't take long."He stepped into the room and closed the door behind him. The sound of the door closing felt final, like he was sealing us inside this moment whether I was ready for it or not."You don't have to feel scared around me," he said quietly. "Or nervous. You can just... be here."I set down the blouse carefully, trying to steady my hands. They were shaking. Everything was shaking."I know," I said. "It's just... I didn't want to cause another fight. I just wanted to pack the last of my things so I c

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    FINDING HER

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~On Sunday morning, I walked into the mansion and immediately felt the weight of every memory this place held.Lucia appeared in the hallway before I could even take a full breath."Miss Hazel!" she exclaimed, her face lighting up with genuine joy. "Oh my god, look at you! I heard the news. I heard you're now a very powerful person. The CEO of a global company! I'm so proud of you, Miss Hazel. I always knew you were special. I always knew you were meant for something great."I couldn't help but smile at her warmth."Thank you, Lucia," I said, pulling her into a quick hug. "It's so good to see you. How have you been? How is everything here?""Everything is good," she said, though I noticed something flicker across her face. "We've missed you. I've missed you.""I've missed you too," I said, and I meant it. “Is Kai home?“Uh…no maam. He left earlier today for some emergency business meeting.” Lucia replied.“Business meeting? On a Sunday?” I thought. “What meeting could

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION

    ~~ Melissa's POV ~~I couldn't stop smiling as we walked out of the E&H offices.She had actually met with us. After everything — after the restaurant opening, after the reveal, after we had tried to approach her so many times, Hazel had actually sat down in a conference room with us and listened to our proposal."I can't believe that actually worked," Damon said as we walked toward the car. "I actually thought she was going to throw us out.""She almost did," I said, laughing. "Did you see her face when she asked about our revenue decline? I thought she was going to end the meeting right then.""But she didn't," Damon said, opening the car door for me. "She's actually considering it. She's actually going to invest in us.""How stupid can she be?" I said, getting into the back seat. "She's the CEO of a global company and she's going to invest fifty million euros into a company that's clearly failing."Damon slid in beside me and closed the door. The driver started the car and pulled o

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    THE PROPOSAL

    I walked into the conference room with Lisa beside me, carrying the E&H Investments folder.Damon, Melissa, and three other board members of the Moretti Group were already seated at the table. When they saw me, their faces lit up with hope.They thought they had a chance."Miss Saint Claire," Damon said, standing up to greet me. "Thank you so much for meeting with us. This means everything to our family."I smiled politely and shook his hand, careful to keep my expression neutral. "Of course," I said. "I'm always interested in hearing about potential opportunities."I sat down at the head of the table, and Lisa positioned herself to my right with the folder."Before we begin," I said, "I want to make clear that E&H Investments is very selective about who we partner with. We have standards, and we don't compromise on those standards.""Of course," Melissa said quickly. "We completely understand. And we think once you hear what we have to offer, you'll see that the Moretti Group meets e

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    MOVING FORWARD

    ~~ Hazel's POV ~~I stared at the spreadsheet on my screen without really seeing it.It had been three weeks since Kai had told me to leave his penthouse, three weeks since he had said we were done. Three weeks of calling, texting, trying to reach him, and getting nothing but silence in return.So I had finally accepted it.He didn't want to talk to me anymore. He didn't want to see me. He had moved on, or he was still so angry that he couldn't bear to be in the same room as me. Either way, the message was clear.I needed to move on too.I couldn't spend the rest of my life waiting for him to forgive me. I couldn't spend the rest of my life hoping that he would change his mind. I had a company to run. I had a life to build. And Kai Lucian Valentino was not going to be part of it.The thought made my chest ache, but I pushed past it.There was a knock on my office door."Come in," I said.Lisa, my assistant, stepped inside with a tablet in her hand."Miss Saint Claire," she said. "I ha

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT HER

    ~~ Reed's POV ~~Three weeks.It had been three weeks since Kai had walked away from Hazel at the restaurant, and in those three weeks, he had become insufferable.I watched him from across the desk in his office as I updated him on the day's business–Club operations were running smoothly, debt collections were on schedule. The Valentino Syndicate's investments were performing well.But Kai wasn't listening.He was staring out the window, his expression distant, his mind clearly somewhere else. "Boss," I said, trying to get his attention. "The numbers in the warehouse district are up by fifteen percent."He didn't respond."Kai," I said more firmly.He turned to face me, and I could see the exhaustion in his eyes. He hadn't been sleeping."Has Hazel called?" he asked abruptly.I set down my papers."No," I murmured. "Not recently.""How recently?" he pressed."I think… since five days ago," I said. "She hasn't called or texted since last week."I watched his jaw clench, he looked comp

    I woke up the next morning later than I had intended, the soft morning light spilling across the large bed. For a few moments I simply lay there, letting the events of the previous night settle over me like a heavy fog–the gun lesson with Kai and the way my body had reacted to this touch immediatel

  • From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress    GUN LESSON: NOW SHOOT

    I lowered the gun slowly, my hand still trembling as I placed it on the table between us. It was now that the weight of what I had just done settled over me like a heavy blanket.Kai stared at me for a long moment, then let out a low, surprised chuckle.“You’re full of surprises, Hazel Rossi,” he s

    I woke up late the next morning, to sunlight streaming through the windows in my room. For a moment I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, my mind replaying everything from the night before–the board with all those photos of me, Kai’s intense eyes, the way he had carried me inside like I already

    ~~Kai's POV~~She was still hitting my back and yelling when I carried her through the front doors of the mansion."Kai! Put me down right now! I swear to God, if you don't let me go I will scream so loud the whole street hears me!"I walked straight to the living room and dropped her onto the larg
