Being falsely accused of stealing was one thing, but being violently dragged through the hallway by my hair was a whole other level of humiliation and pain.

I grappled to break free from her hold, but her grasp on my hair was unyielding.

We reached the lobby and she shouted. "Listen everyone, I caught this woman trying to steal my emerald ring! Let this be a warning to all of you—do not follow in her footsteps."

"What in the world is going on here?" Ms. Sabrina exclaimed as she pushed through the crowd to my side, assisting me in getting back up.

Ms. Sabrina turned to Sapphire with anger in her eyes. "How dare you do this to her!”

“I'm only punishing her for taking what's mine!” Sapphire bit back, matching Ms. Sabrina’s anger.

"Do you honestly expect me to believe you? This isn't the first time you've pulled something like this, Ms. Everheart, but you've gone too far this time, and I won't stand for it!”

"You're just a lowly employee. What can you possibly do against me?" Sapphire sho

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 109

    I knew that if I didn't walk away now, I would end up hurting Carmina. I didn't want to do something I would later regret, so I turned on my heels, only to collide with the hard wall of Blaze's chest.When I looked up to meet his gaze, I realized he had been listening to the conversation. He didn't say a word. He just looked at me.I made my way to our bedroom and changed my clothes. I felt like I might suffocate from the air inside the house if I stayed, so I grabbed my car keys and headed to my car.I drove through the dimly lit highway that stretched before me, the familiar sights passing by in a blur.After what felt like an eternity, I found myself parked in front of the hospital where my younger brother was confined. I knew he was waiting for me inside, but I didn't have the strength to open the car door and face him just yet.Instead, I sat in the car, trying to stop myself from bursting into frustrated tears.I can handle an ex-best friend suddenly having my husband's child an

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 108

    My heart stopped. Does Blaze know about this?I summoned my composure and found my voice. "You disappeared three years ago, Carmina. Even your parents had no clue where you went. You didn't even show up at my wedding, and now you pop up out of nowhere claiming you and my husband have a son… How am I supposed to believe you?"“I can prove it, Claire. I can.” She challenged me, a smug smile playing on her lips.The sound of hurried footsteps made us pause. We both turned to Blaze who was wearing his robe, revealing the outline of a sculpted chest. He looked confused, his eyes darting between me and Carmina, then landing on the little boy who looked to be around two years old. He froze. "What's going on?" he asked, unable to tear his gaze from the child.The question that had been lodged in my throat finally resurfaced. "Is this true, Blaze? Is the boy your son?"Blaze was too shocked to respond. He couldn't deny everything now since the child looked so much like him. In fact, the boy re

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 107

    I felt like the ground had disappeared beneath my feet. I had never expected to hear such cruel words from the man I had loved with all my heart. It was as if everything I had done for him during our marriage had been nothing but a cruel joke.I looked deep into his brown eyes, seeking any trace of the pain I felt. But there was nothing. No sympathy, no regret, no emotion. It felt as though he had already moved on.I gave him a bitter smile that reflected all the pain I felt. "I may not have lived up to your ideal of the perfect woman, but I did my best to be a good wife.”Blaze said nothing. His lack of emotion hurt more than any harsh words he could have said.I lifted my chin and asked, "Is there someone else?" The answer would hurt either way, but I needed to know.He seemed hesitant at first, but then he shook his head and replied, "There's no one."I had known him long enough to know he was speaking the truth. And as painful as it was to realize that our marriage had simply fal

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 106

    Goodbye Ex-Wife, I Love You(Book II of Phoenix Empire) They called her trash. The poor Lawrence girl. When Blaze Phoenix—billionaire, powerful, ruthless—offered Claire a marriage contract in exchange for bearing his heir, she said yes. Finally, she could escape the bitter shame of her family name and prove everyone wrong. But fate was cruel to both of them. Their precious baby boy died in flames. The pain tore them apart, and after two years of her crying alone at night, Blaze ended their marriage. Then came the blow that brought Claire to her knees. A woman showed up with a little boy, a child who looked just like her husband. Now, Claire stands at the edge of an impossible choice. Should she fight for the only man she's ever loved? Or let him go to the woman who seems to have given him everything Claire couldn't, a living, breathing son? —I stared at Blaze Phoenix, my husband, as the words left his mouth. "I've talked to my lawyer. I'm filing for divorce." It felt like

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 105

    Crimson gently wrapped his arms around my waist as I rested my head on his chest and closed my eyes. It had been an hour since we left Isabela's room, but her confession still lingered in my mind. Part of me wished I had never learned the truth, but another part of me was grateful for the closure it brought. "I wish I had been with my grandmother in her final moments so she could have shared the truth with me instead of my cousin. I wish I could have told her that I don't blame her; that despite her mistake, she remains the kindest person I know. I believe she wouldn't have done anything unless she was pushed to her limit.” I raised my head to look at him. Witnessing the frown on his forehead, I smoothed it away with my fingers until it vanished. "I have my own regrets too," I whispered, feeling a tightness in my throat from the flood of emotions. "I wish I had discovered the truth sooner, so I didn't chase after it blindly. And I wish I could have reunited Grandpa with the wom

    It was supposed to be a happy day for my family to enjoy. Unfortunately, some things are beyond one's control. After we returned home from the picnic, Crimson received a call. I watched as his handsome face twisted with worry, the color draining from his features as he met my gaze. “Is everything alright? Who called you just now? What happened?” The words spilled from my lips one after another. I tried to restrain my thoughts so they wouldn't wander to terrifying conclusions, but they did anyway. It was hard not to think that something bad had happened while watching his reaction. “There's an emergency at home… Isabela was rushed to the hospital.” Worry rang painfully in his tone. Crimson cared deeply for his cousin, and the news of her being rushed to the hospital was a blow he had never expected. Fear and worry gripped me as well, knowing how important Isabela was to him. We immediately rushed back to the hotel and dropped Cleo in Sapphire's care since we couldn't bring

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 103

    I stared at the ring on my finger, feeling overwhelmed with emotions. I had dreamed of this moment a thousand times before, but it was far more beautiful and magical than I could have ever imagined.“Do you like it? I could have given you a much more beautiful ring. However, I got too excited and bought this one instead because I was at a loss as to which design you would like.”“You're kidding, right? This ring is so gorgeous! Why wouldn’t I like it?”Crimson's face lit up at my words. At that moment, he looked so damn cute that I couldn't resist pinching his cheeks.“I’m glad you like it. I was a bit hesitant to give it at first because the design is simple and not as extravagant as some of the other rings out there.”“It’s perfect.”He pulled me into a tight hug, his arms wrapped around me protectively. “I love you so much, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. I'll wait for you until you're ready to marry me.”I hugged him back, knowing that this moment would for

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 102

    My eyes swept the room, but it seemed the one I was looking for wasn't present among them.Sighing, I turned to look at my brother, David. He was saying something, but I wasn't paying attention, so I missed most of his words.“Liz, are you with me?”Color rose to my cheeks. “I beg your pardon?”He cleared his throat. “I'm asking if you're looking for someone. You've been spaced out for a while now. Are you waiting for a secret admirer or something?” He teased me.I rolled my eyes heavenward. "Oh, stop it. I'm just enjoying the party.”When the dance ended, David walked to the side, leaving me alone in the middle of the room, confused.The orchestra stopped, and the room was engulfed in total silence.Suddenly, the man who had been occupying my thoughts emerged from the crowd. He walked with the elegance of a king and seemed to own the crowd as he passed by.My breath hitched in my throat. Am I imagining things? I asked myself, watching him close the distance between us.He stopped rig

  • Revenge on My Billionaire Ex    Chapter 101

    I sat by Crimson's bedside in the hospital, holding his hand tightly as he lay unconscious after his operation. I knew he was strong, but the thought of losing him was too much to bear. My phone rang, breaking the silence of the room. It was Sapphire, my stepsister. “I need you to come to the police station. The officers want to talk to you to get your statement." "I'll be right there," I sighed. My eyes went to Crimson, and I fought back the tears. “I have to go,” I told him, pressing my lips to his forehead. When I arrived at the police station, Sapphire was sitting in a small room, surrounded by police officers. She looked pale, perhaps because she had lost too much blood. But she seemed okay, and that was all that mattered. Chief Dallas spotted me. He stood up and gestured for me to follow. In a separate room, he interrogated me about what happened in the warehouse. I provided him with a detailed account. The interrogation lasted an hour, and when it finally ended, I coul
