Rejected by One, Wanted by Another Poisoned
The sound of sirens shattered the silence surrounding the Matthews estate.Red and blue lights flashed through the tall dining room windows as paramedics rushed through the front doors carrying medical bags and a stretcher. The elegant dinner party had dissolved into chaos.Victoria knelt beside Adrian, her designer gown soaked with spilled wine. She clutched his hand as tears streamed down her face."Adrian... please wake up," she cried, her voice breaking. "Please!"A paramedic gently pulled her back. "Ma'am, we need room."She stumbled away as two others dropped beside Adrian. One checked his pulse while another fitted an oxygen mask over his face."Pulse is weak.""He's barely breathing.""Prepare an airway."The room filled with hurried instructions. Medical equipment clicked open while another paramedic connected Adrian to a portable monitor.Arthur stood several feet away, gripping the edge of the dining table so tightly his knuckles turned white, the confidence he'd worn at di
Rejected by One, Wanted by Another A Toast to Disaster
The Matthews mansion hadn't felt this lively in weeks.The long dining table was set with crystal glasses, and enough food to feed a few hundred people. Laughter drifted through the room as servants moved quietly between the guests, refilling glasses and replacing empty plates.For the first time since the corporate war began, the Matthews family looked relaxed.The scandal surrounding Lucy and Jonathan had done exactly what Arthur and Victoria wanted. Investors had stopped talking about Matthews Global's financial losses and started talking about the affair that dominated every headline instead. Blake Holdings was taking the hit, and the Matthews family finally felt like they were back in control.Arthur sat at the head of the table beside one of the company's oldest banking partners, Mr. Hills. Victoria looked happier than Lucy had seen in months. Every few minutes she lifted her wineglass with another satisfied smile.Only Lucy remained quiet. She sat beside Adrian with her hands f
Rejected by One, Wanted by Another She Finally Snapped
The grandfather clock in the hallway chimed twice.It was well past two in the morning. Lucy walked quietly through the dark mansion, a glass of wine in her hand. She couldn't sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she heard the whispers from the gala all over again.The house was silent except for a faint glow from the door of Adrian's private study. As she got closer, laughter drifted into the hallway.A woman's laughter.She stopped.She didn't mean to listen, but Adrian's voice carried through the half-open door."...you're overthinking it."She looked inside. Adrian was sprawled across his leather chair with a bottle of scotch in one hand. A young woman sat comfortably on his lap, smiling as she traced circles across his chest.Lucy didn't recognize her. It was probably another girl… another replacement."What if your wife catches us?" the girl asked with a playful laugh.Adrian laughed even harder. "Lucy?" he scoffed. "She's probably locked in her room crying. That's what she's
Rejected by One, Wanted by Another A Big Reveal
Adrian stumbled through the door of the guesthouse, the whiskey still burning in his veins and blurring the edges of the world. Zoe was waiting, just like she always was, curled up on the couch in nothing but a silk slip that barely reached her thighs. Her face lit up the second she saw him, a bright, hungry smile spreading across her lips.“Adrian,” she purred, rising smoothly and meeting him halfway. “You came to me again. Drunk and horny, just how I like you.”He grabbed her waist, pulling her against his body. The scent of her… vanilla and something warmer, hit him hard. “Fuck, Zoe… needed you tonight.” His words slurred slightly as he crushed his mouth to hers, kissing her with sloppy, demanding hunger. She moaned into it, parting her lips and letting his tongue invade, tasting the liquor on him while her hands worked open his shirt buttons.“You’re so fucking hard already,” she whispered against his mouth, palming the thick bulge straining his pants. “Your wife doesn’t take care
Rejected by One, Wanted by Another I Won’t Break
The charity gala continued long after Lucy wished it would end.Everywhere she turned, she felt eyes on her.The whispers followed her from table to table, sometimes quiet enough to pretend she hadn't heard them and sometimes loud enough to make sure she did."She should be behind bars, not walking around in a designer dress," a woman loudly as Lucy passed the buffet table."Her father must be so proud," a man replied, chuckling softly. "Destroyed his own business, and now his daughter is trading corporate secrets for hotel room hookups."She froze. The comment about her father made her chest tighten and a sudden, hot rush of tears burned the backs of her eyes. For a second, her chin trembled. She wanted to drop the glass in her hand, run out of the hall, and hide in the dark.She took a slow, deep breath, forcing her fingers to grip her purse tighter. She bit the inside of her cheek until the sharp pain cleared the fog of tears from her vision. She would not cry in front of these pe
Rejected by One, Wanted by Another The Perfect Victim
Lucy stared at her reflection and wanted to laugh.Not because anything was funny. Because it was ridiculous."Charity gala," she muttered bitterly.There was nothing charitable about tonight. The entire city had spent the last twenty-four hours tearing her apart. Strangers who had never met her were calling her a liar, a cheat, a gold digger, and a traitor. Reporters were camped outside her parents' home. Her mother was afraid to answer the front door. Her brother couldn't leave the house without being shouted at.And somehow she was expected to smile through all of it.Lucy pulled a pale blue dress from the wardrobe, then immediately tossed it back. The neckline was too low… the bruise on her throat would show.A fitted red gown followed, it was too revealing.A cream-colored dress… it was too thin.Finally, she found a black gown tucked toward the back of the closet. The high neckline covered the marks on her throat. The long sleeves hid the bruises scattered across her arms. The d
