Married to the billionaire who broke me Chapter Thirty: Truth, Arriving Too Late
Chapter Thirty: Truth, Arriving Too Late The silence after disgrace was louder than applause. Isabella learned that quickly. In the days that followed the council meeting, the world did not shout at her. It did not accuse her openly. It simply withdrew. Invitations vanished. Calls went unanswered. Faces that once warmed at her presence now turned politely blank. Worse than hatred was erasure. She still lived in the Blackwood penthouse, because the contract demanded appearances until its final day. Four months remained. Four months of being a ghost in a place that had once felt like a battlefield she was learning to survive. Ethan rarely spoke to her. When he did, his voice was cool, controlled, indifferent—like she was a problem already solved. That indifference hurt more than his cruelty ever had. She woke one morning to find her access completely restricted. Even her personal terminal—once linked to Blackwood systems for scheduling and c
Married to the billionaire who broke me chapter Twenty-Nine: The Punishment The World Saw
Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Punishment the World Saw Valeria did not act in haste. She never had. She understood Ethan Blackwood better than anyone alive—not because she loved him more, but because she had helped create him. She knew the line he would forgive crossing in private. She knew the one he would not forgive at all. And she knew exactly how to make sure Isabella crossed it in the eyes of the world. The frame was brilliant in its cruelty. It didn’t accuse Isabella of betrayal of the heart. It accused her of betrayal of power. The documents surfaced quietly at first—placed into the hands of the one man Ethan trusted to bring him truth without sentiment. Financial ledgers. Access logs. A recorded conversation spliced just carefully enough to suggest intent without clarity. The accusation was simple. Isabella had leaked proprietary information. Not to an enemy— but to a rival. A sin worse than treason. By the time E
Married to the billionaire who broke me Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Lie That Brought Them Close
Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Lie That Brought Them Close Valeria believed separation was a science. Pressure here. Distance there. A whisper timed precisely when doubt was already bleeding through the cracks. She had watched Ethan Blackwood dismantle empires with less effort. So dismantling a woman who loved him should have been easy. It should have been. Her plan was elegant. Cruel. Perfect. She leaked a rumor—carefully curated, devastatingly believable—into the one place Isabella could not ignore: Ethan’s inner circle. Not the press. Not the public. But him. The rumor said Isabella had been meeting someone. That she had been preparing for life after the contract. That her loyalty had an expiration date that had already passed. Valeria made sure the proof looked airtight. Photographs taken from angles that lied convincingly. Messages stripped of context. A schedule that
Married to the billionaire who broke me Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Woman Who Refused to Be Replaced
Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Woman Who Refused to Be Replaced Valeria didn’t rush the takeover. She never had. She understood power the way surgeons understood arteries—where to press, when to cut, how long to let the bleeding scare before stopping it just enough to keep the body alive. And Ethan Blackwood was very much alive. Too alive. Too aware of Isabella’s absence. That was the first thing Valeria noticed. Not the way his hand curled around his glass at meetings. Not the way his temper sharpened like a blade drawn too often. But the pauses. Those quiet, treacherous pauses where his eyes drifted—searching for someone who was still there, yet no longer invited. So Valeria tightened her grip. Subtly. Deliberately. She arrived early to meetings Isabella used to attend. Sat in Isabella’s chair. Reviewed documents Isabella had once prepared, correcting them with a soft laugh that implied competence and ownership. “
Married to the billionaire who broke me Chapter Twenty-Six: When the World Watched Him Choose
Chapter Twenty-Six: When the World Watched Him Choose Valeria moved like poison dressed in silk. She didn’t rush. She didn’t force. She waited. That was how she had always destroyed people—by letting them destroy themselves first. From the moment she arrived, the atmosphere inside the Blackwood world shifted. Meetings grew colder. Invitations multiplied. Old allies resurfaced with smiles too eager, eyes too knowing. Valeria slipped into rooms Isabella had never been invited into, conversations that fell silent when she entered, secrets that tasted old and dangerous. And Ethan let it happen. That was the first wound. Isabella noticed everything. She noticed how Valeria touched Ethan’s arm when she spoke, as if muscle memory still owned him. How she leaned in close during strategy briefings, whispering things that made his jaw tighten—not with anger, but with restraint. How she laughed softly when he snapped, like she knew the reason behind e
Married to the billionaire who broke me Chapter Twenty-Five: The Price of Control
Chapter Twenty-Five: The Price of Control Ethan Blackwood did not like chaos. He tolerated violence. He orchestrated fear. He mastered consequences. But chaos—true chaos—was something he crushed the moment it appeared. And Isabella had become chaos. Not because she was reckless. But because she was effective. The headlines hadn’t used his name first. That was the problem. BLACKWOOD WIFE DISARMS AMBUSH ISABELLA BLACKWOOD: THE NEW POWER BESIDE THE THRONE WHO IS THE WOMAN EVEN ETHAN BLACKWOOD COULDN’T CONTROL? Ethan read every word in silence, jaw tight, expression unreadable. Across the room, Isabella stood by the window, the city stretched beneath her like a living thing. Her arm was bandaged. Her posture was calm. Too calm. She had learned quickly. Too quickly. “You enjoyed it,” Ethan said at last. She turned. “Enjoyed what?” “The attention.” “I didn’t ask for it.” “You didn’t stop it ei
