Mirabella had built her life around love, trust, and devotion, believing that her marriage to Ethan was the very definition of a perfect union. Despite struggling with infertility, she held onto the dream of a future filled with happiness, willing to sacrifice anything for the man she loved. However, her world is irreversibly shattered when she unexpectedly walks in on Ethan in bed with her older sister, Sienna—the one person she had always trusted. Instead of guilt or remorse, Ethan throws divorce papers in her face, blaming her for her inability to conceive, while Sienna mocks and humiliates her, making it clear that Mirabella has been replaced. Left homeless, heartbroken, and utterly betrayed by those she once considered her entire world, Mirabella spirals into despair, her once-glamorous life crumbling around her. As she drowns in hopelessness, a powerful yet mysterious ally steps forward, offering her the support, resources, and guidance she needs to rise from the ashes of her past. Fueled by pain but strengthened by newfound determination, Mirabella reinvents herself, stepping into a world of power, influence, and ruthless ambition. No longer the fragile woman Ethan and Sienna discarded, she meticulously orchestrates a masterful plan to reclaim her dignity and dismantle the lives of those who wronged her. But as Ethan and Sienna’s world begins to crumble under the weight of their own greed and deception, Mirabella is faced with an unexpected realization—true power is not in revenge but in the ability to walk away. Will she take her vengeance to the bitter end, or will she choose to embrace a new beginning, where her happiness is no longer tied to the past?

I didn’t need to turn to know who it belonged to—it struck through the walls like a slap.Ethan and I jerked around at once.Shit.He wasn’t supposed to be back today. Let alone show up here. I was screwed.I shifted—just enough to put some space between Ethan and me. Not enough to be obvious, but enough to clear the air of any suspicion.“Lena,” Ethan muttered, the irritation in his tone thinly veiled.But he had no right to question anything. He knew what this was. Still, the way Cole kept walking, undeterred and closing in, forced my spine straight. I buried the panic and pulled on my calmest pretense.“Who’s this, hun?” Cole’s eyes flicked between us, voice edged. His hands slid into his pockets as if to keep them from doing something else.Clearing my throat, I forced composure into my words. “Cole, this is Ethan. We were just discussing a deal.”He blinked, tilting his head slightly. “Oh—the Haven app one?”“Yeah.” I nodded. Typical Co
Chapter 5~ Mirabella ~Two hours later, I sat in the doctor’s office, my foot tapping anxiously against the tiled floor while Theo played quietly beside me, twisting the small teddy bear in his hands.Ethan had agreed to come in for the test. He was currently waiting outside, unaware of Theo’s presence—and I preferred to keep it that way. At least until we were sure.“Mum?” Theo’s soft, hesitant voice pulled me from my spiraling thoughts. I turned to him quickly.“Yes, baby?” I leaned forward, forcing a smile that didn’t quite reach my eyes.His gaze stayed distant, more focused on the bear than on me—but I was used to that. “Why are we here? You said no more hospital visits.”I pressed a kiss to his forehead, voice gentle. “We’re only here for a few minutes, okay? I just need to grab something.”He finally looked at me. For a moment, those blue-brown eyes locked onto mine with an innocent hope that squeezed my heart so tightly I almost forgot how to breathe.“I… I wanna go back to S
Chapter 4~ Mirabella ~I surveyed the room with a single glance, taking in the sea of shocked faces. Dora, my assistant, stood off to the side with a knowing smile, her arms folded across her chest.“My apologies for the late arrival. The press was… an obstacle,” I said smoothly, ignoring the blatant disbelief in the room as I sauntered to a seat off to the side—one where I could oversee everything without being too close.Don’t look, Mirabella. Don’t.But from the corner of my eye, I saw him.Ethan.Still standing. Mouth slightly open. Eyes locked on me like I was a ghost. A blank expression painted his face.Good.Clearing throats followed, and one of the men—his name tag read Richard—spoke up. “Mirabella… I wasn’t expecting to see you here. None of us were.”Dora stepped beside me, handing me the tab for the presentation. I began scrolling through it, but at Richard’s words, I paused and scoffed.“That’s Miss Carter to you, Richard,” I said, my voice blank as I handed the tab back
Chapter 3~ Ethan ~“Sir, it seems you don’t understand how crucial this deal is to us,” my assistant, Aiden, said, standing in front of my desk.I barely heard him. My focus was on the glass of whiskey I was slowly swirling in my hand, watching the amber liquid catch the light.Crucial deal. Important. Whatever.I knew that already. Robert Enterprises had been aggressively expanding into the tech sector for years, and this merger was our best shot at securing a dominant foothold.We could probably succeed on our own, but without the right software infrastructure, our ambitions were dead in the water. We needed innovation—something that could redefine digital security on a global scale.And we found it.The app was called Haven.Or rather—she had found it.Miss Carter. The mysterious CEO of Haven.Her app had started as a small project—something grassroots and under-the-radar—but it had exploded into a revolutionary tool for women's safety. AI-powered, real-time threat detection. Evid
Chapter 25 YEARS LATER~ Mirabella ~I’ve fought to survive for four years, but now, the only battle that matters is the one my son is losing.The doctors say there’s nothing left to do, but I didn’t survive hell just to bury my son.“Miss Carter?” The sound of the doctor behind me snapped me out of my daze. I turned around with a small smile on my face.“Doctor Gareth.” I walked over to him, my boots clicking against the tiled floor as I extended a hand to meet his outstretched one.He took my hand firmly, the skin around his eyes crinkling with the large smile he gave me. I wished I could share the same happiness with him, but instead, I wore the fake smile I’d mastered over the years.The one that kept the media happy. The one that made people believe I was fine… and not about to drive my heels into my skull.“Shall we? Theo is in the playroom right now, alone. He’ll be fine, okay? You don’t have to stand around here waiting till his time is up. Let’s have a talk, hm?” Dr. Gareth
Chapter 1 ~ Mirabella ~ Loud moans filled the room. Worse, my curiosity got the better of me. I should have knocked. Why shouldn't I stay at my husband's house? Was it a crime to come back early? I stretched my legs into the building, the loud moans growing more intense as I pushed the door ajar. What I saw made my tear glands explode. My heart had fluttered at the thought of coming home to meet my husband. I’d expected many things when I came home early—but my husband entangled in bed with my sister wasn’t one of them. I should have knocked. I wished I had. But it was too late. I was already inside, my eyes wide, trying to understand what was happening, my brain scrambling. My lips parted in a silent ‘o’ as I stared at my husband and my sister in bed, their bodies tangled beneath the sheets. You’d think they would scramble to cover their shame, but they just stared at me lazily from where I stood at the door. I had come home earlier than expected. Why wouldn’t I? I had news to s
