Audrey truly stuck to her words—she didn't agree to the business marriage.

This had come as a huge disappointment to Elon, who had greatly anticipated that Audrey would eventually change her mind and go with his first proposition. But to his sheer disbelief, she had told him the following morning after the night she returned, that she wasn't complying with the marriage demand.

"I already intend to make Theodore pay for what he did to me, Dad. So if that's what you're really asking of me, I guess I just have to quicken the pace of my revenge plot. I go with the second option then. I don't want to marry Jamie," She had told him resolutely.

Elon's disappointment and frustration that morning couldn't be quelled by anyone nor even by his lovely wife, Scarlett, who had tried to reassure him that she would talk some sense into their stubborn daughter. But Elon already knew better—He knew the moment Audrey had set her heart on something, it would take a village to literally change her mind.

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   19. One-night stand with a stranger

    "Who the fuck are you, really?" The man paused momentarily as he absorbed her question, finding himself somewhat captivated by her drunken state. He found it amusing that Audrey truly didn't remember him. He knew they had met just once before now, but still, he expected some recognition. After all, other ladies tend to remember their encounters with him even though he struggled to recall such mundane details. However, Audrey's case was different. He remembered her even though in her drunken state, she couldn't recall where they initially crossed paths. He could easily picture—the silver-haired beaut with mesmerizing green eyes he had encountered in the elevator three weeks prior, especially since her face had been haunting his heart and cock ever since then. Ian had asked his aide to get everything he could on Audrey after she left, and ever since then he had been keeping tabs on her, following her every move while he was her fucking guardian angel. He was aware that his hunch a

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   18. Handsome stranger

    Audrey drove through the streets of Nyx City without a specific destination she was headed. She tried to preoccupy her mind with other distractions, trying to set aside her thoughts revolving Theodore and the bitch she had encountered in the mart earlier. She remained unsettled by the unexpected encounter. Still reeling from the terror of seeing Emily enjoying everything that was once hers. Her home. Her marriage. Her husband, even though he wasn't worth being called that by her. Her life—Emily had basically stolen everything from her. Audrey had been caught up, pondering ways to get her revenge sooner, not forgetting the fact that she was also on a test by her father. Throughout her drive in the City, she was consumed with conflicting emotions and was starting to get sick of them. She was tired of overthinking and feeling frustrated and all she just wanted to do was forget her turmoil for a while. Maybe losing herself in a few drinks at the bar she had just pulled up to would

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   17. Find her!

    Meanwhile, Audrey rushed to Chloe's car outside, plopping down in the passenger's seat and slamming the door close after her. Her breaths hitched and her heart pounded uncontrollably in her chest. Her fingers trembled slightly, her chest rising up and down violently at intervals. She feared she might be having a panic attack. And it might have been triggered by her encounter with Emily. Audrey closed her eyes, trying to catch her breath and steady herself at the same time. A wave of nausea washed over her and she hated the feeling. Hated the fact that she had bolted from the mart like a fucking coward. A fucking pathetic loser who couldn't stand a confrontation from her ex. Before she could fully grasp a hold of herself, tears were already trickling down her face. It started with a lone tear, then another followed, then another till they were flowing down her face like a placid stream. She clenched her thighs nervously, trying desperately to suppress the ache she felt in her chest

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   16. Unexpected Encounter

    Audrey stepped out of the car alongside Chloe, both chattering as they made their way into the supermarket. Chloe did most of the talking, while Audrey just listened as they approached the counter to pick up their shopping carts. "What's on your list?" Chloe inquired after they picked up their separate carts, navigating through the aisles for customers. With a shrug, Audrey shrugged. "Just some groceries and personal items. Basically restocking since I won't have the chance to do so again till next week." "Oh, yeah, that's true," Chloe agreed friendly. "Alright then, I'll be right back. I’m just going to check around the corner for a specific shampoo product someone recommended to me yesterday." Audrey nodded subtly in understanding. "That's okay. I'll be here." "I know you will, my love." Chloe extended her hand. "Here, take the car key, in case you finish before me and wish to wait in the car." She said, placing the key in Audrey's open palm. Audrey returned a small smile, an

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   15. A new friend

    It's been three weeks since Audrey returned to Nyx City. She had managed to settle into a cozy apartment at the outskirts of the City, the side of the city that once used to be out of her league now her residence. This was because Theodore had contacted every landlord who owned luxurious apartments in Nyx, so that Audrey wouldn't be able to rent any apartments. He had even forcefully taken away the private villa she had purchased as well, cutting her off their joint accounts and leaving her financially depleted.He was determined to make her life a living hell, all in a bid to get her to leave the City to start afresh somewhere else. Now, Theodore believed he had successfully done that since it had been three weeks since any of them (him, Emily, and his employees ) last set their eyes on Audrey. They believed they had driven her away. However, unknown to them, Audrey was still lurking around, on the outskirts of the City, where her apartment was located.Audrey had tried to keep a lo

  • HER POWER; Betrayed ex-wife seeks revenge!   14. Lovestruck or lurking danger?

    The drive to the airport was a quiet one, giving Audrey the space to reflect on the scene she had walked into earlier—Jamie talking to Elsa in the living room.She had been surprised, but didn't bother to ask questions as she noted from Elsa's smirk that that was merely a ploy to get a rise out of her. Audrey refused to let Elsa see that she was perturbed, she caught her engaging in a conversation with the man who was chasing after her. Audrey's always known Elsa to be like that, always going after the same thing she wanted, except in this case, Aubrey didn't want Jamie in the least bit. So she seriously couldn't care less about their interaction. Not even the way their proximity had been so close nor the charming smile she had caught on Jamie's face before she walked in with Scarlett.After unintentionally disrupting their moment, Audrey noticed Elsa had tried to play off the scene by acting innocent, even pretending to be so sweet with her in Jamie's presence. That wasn't a new act
