Chapter 106

Mona sat at the breakfast table, staring at the untouched eggs and toast on her plate. The food might as well have been cardboard for all the appetite she had. She had barely slept the night before, tossing and turning in their empty bed, her mind spinning with Marcus Webb's shocking revelation.

Alexander had completely erased his past. Every trace of who he used to be was gone, wiped clean like he had never existed before becoming a billionaire. The man she had married was a ghost, a phantom with no history and no verifiable identity.

The sound of Maria, their housekeeper, pouring fresh orange juice barely registered. Mona was lost in her thoughts, replaying every conversation she'd ever had with her husband, searching for clues she might have missed.

"Will Mr. Kane be joining you for breakfast, Mrs. Kane?" Maria asked gently.

Mona looked up, realizing the older woman was studying her with concerned eyes. "I don't know," she said quietly. "He didn't come home last night."

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 128

    Chapter 128Emily stood alone in the mansion's library at 5:30 AM, watching pre-market trading numbers on her laptop screen. The house felt emptier than usual - Samuel was sleeping off another drinking session, Richard had locked himself in his study to avoid any family discussions, and Lora hadn't spoken to anyone since their explosive fight about the auction sales.But Emily didn't need her family's support for what was about to happen. Charles Jones had called the night before with news that made her heart race with anticipation."Tomorrow we go nuclear," he had said. "I'm calling in every favor, using every connection, leveraging every relationship I've built over thirty years in finance."Emily refreshed her browser and watched Kane Industries' pre-market price with the intensity of a hunter watching prey. The stock had closed yesterday at $127 per share. This morning, it was already showing weakness at $124 in early trading.Her phone buzzed with a text from Charles: "Phase two

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 127

    Chapter 127Lora sat on the floor of her bedroom surrounded by jewelry boxes, silver picture frames, and antique ornaments that had belonged to the Caldwell family for generations. Her hair hung in greasy strands around her face, and her clothes looked like she had been wearing them for days. Empty wine bottles cluttered the nightstand beside tissues and pill bottles that promised sleep but delivered only numbness.She picked up a diamond necklace that had belonged to Samuel's great-grandmother, watching the stones catch the afternoon light streaming through her windows. The beautiful thing felt cold and lifeless in her hands, just like everything else in her world since she lost her baby."What's the point of keeping you?" she whispered to the necklace. "What's the point of any of this?"The past weeks had blurred together in a haze of grief and humiliation. The miscarriage had broken something fundamental inside her, but the public shame that followed had shattered what remained of

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 126

    Chapter 126Mona sat in Alexander's study, reviewing the financial reports that covered his desk like a paper battlefield. The numbers told a story of coordinated attacks and brilliant defenses, of enemies striking and being repelled with surgical precision. She had been studying Kane Industries' stock movement for the past hour, trying to understand exactly how Alexander had managed to turn what should have been a devastating blow into a display of strength."The volume was extraordinary," she murmured to herself, running her finger down columns of trading data. "Someone bought millions of shares in a matter of hours."The study door opened behind her, and Alexander entered carrying two cups of coffee. He looked relaxed despite having spent the day defending his company against financial warfare, his shirt sleeves rolled up and his tie loosened from hours of intense work."Finding anything interesting?" he asked, setting one cup beside her and settling into the chair across from his

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 125

    Chapter 125Emily Caldwell sat in the morning room of their mansion, surrounded by newspapers and her laptop computer, monitoring every business news website she could access. For the first time in months, she felt something that resembled hope. Charles Jones had promised that today would mark the beginning of Alexander Kane's downfall, and she was determined to witness every moment of it.The first article appeared at exactly 8:30 AM on the Financial Tribune's website. The headline made Emily's heart race with excitement: "Kane Industries Faces Questions About Project Financing."She read aloud to Samuel, who was nursing his morning coffee and trying to shake off another hangover. "Sources close to Kane Industries suggest the company may be experiencing cash flow problems related to several major construction projects in Southeast Asia.""Is it true?" Samuel asked, his voice still thick with sleep."It doesn't matter if it's true," Emily replied with satisfaction. "What matters is th

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 124

    Chapter 124The private dining room at the Ritz-Carlton was carefully selected for its soundproof walls and complete privacy. Charles Jones sat at the head of the mahogany table, studying the three Caldwell family members who had arrived for this desperate meeting. Emily looked haggard despite her expensive clothes, Samuel appeared to be fighting a losing battle with alcohol, and Richard seemed older than his years."Thank you all for coming," Charles said, gesturing for them to take their seats. "I believe we have much to discuss about our mutual enemy."Emily sat down with the rigid posture of someone trying to maintain dignity in the face of complete social destruction. "Mr. Jones, we need to move quickly. Every day we delay gives Alexander Kane more time to consolidate his position.""I understand the urgency," Charles replied smoothly. "But before we proceed, I need to know exactly what resources you're willing to commit to this operation."Samuel poured himself a generous glass

  • RISE OF THE EX WIFE : Mona's Revenge   Chapter 123

    Chapter 123Alexander stood up from the bed and walked to the safe hidden behind a painting on their bedroom wall. Mona watched as he entered a long combination, his fingers moving with practiced precision despite the emotion still raw on his face."There's more you need to know," he said quietly, pulling out a thick manila envelope. "About your parents. About why Emily targeted your family specifically."Mona felt her blood turn cold. "What about my parents?""David and Margaret Smith weren't random victims," Alexander said, returning to sit beside her. "They were connected to my father's business long before Emily ever met you.""That's impossible," Mona whispered. "My parents had their own company. They never mentioned knowing any Caldwells."Alexander opened the envelope and pulled out several old documents, photographs, and business records. "Your father and mine were partners, Mona. Before Emily destroyed everything, before the fraud accusations, David Smith was James Caldwell S
