Thrown Out of My House

Author: Cassiel Z
Elara's POV

The moment Damien rushed out after Isabella, reality crashed over me.

I could perform perfectly. I could manipulate every situation. I could play the helpless victim with flawless precision.

None of it mattered.

Isabella's tears would always be louder than my silence. Her pain would always matter more than mine. His devotion to her was something I had never experienced. Something I never would.

Sometimes the jealousy ate at me like poison. She had everything I'd dreamed of for six years. A man who would drop everything to comfort her. A love so fierce it made him blind to reason.

She already had his heart completely.

Why did she need to destroy my daughter too?

If Lily had lived, if the surgery had succeeded, I would have taken her far away.

I would have let them have their perfect life together.

I'd told myself that from the moment she came back.

If Damien truly loved her, I would never, ever stand in their way.

But that choice had been stolen.

She had shamelessly rip

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 100 Welcome to My Wedding

    Elara's POVI looked at her through the haze of smoke and flame, my voice calm despite the chaos around us."Let them come."The fire department arrived within minutes, but by then the entire master bedroom had been consumed.Flames had devoured everything - the four-poster bed where Damien and I had once shared intimate moments, the antique dresser that had held my jewelry, the silk curtains that had filtered morning sunlight across our faces during happier times.All of it reduced to charred rubble and ash.The acrid smell of burned fabric and melted plastic filled the air, and smoke damage had spread to the adjoining rooms despite the firefighters' quick response.I stood on the front lawn, watching it all burn, and I felt nothing. No, that wasn't true. I felt a clean, sharp, savage satisfaction.The room that had symbolized six years of marriage, all our shared history, our brief moments of sweetness before everything turned bitter - it was all gone now.Burned away like it had nev

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 99 Then Let's Burn It Together

    Elara's POVIsabella stared at me with growing shock, her phone still pressed to her ear as the call continued to ring unanswered.I reached for my phone on the nightstand and answered it with deliberate calm."Hello?""Mrs. Blackwood?" The voice was professional, courteous. "This is Maria from Celestial Events. I'm calling about your wedding next Saturday."Isabella's call finally connected on her end, but instead of a greeting, she heard an automated message: "The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."Her eyes widened with confusion as she stared at her phone screen.Of course it was unavailable. I wasn't stupid enough to use my regular contact information for my professional identity. The number I gave to clients and colleagues was completely separate from my personal life."Yes, Maria," I said into my phone, keeping my voice warm and engaged. "How can I help you?""We wanted to confirm your preferences for the floral arrangements and overall de

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 98 When the Phone Rings in Front of Me

    Elara's POVI stood in Lily's room, methodically folding the last of my belongings into a single suitcase.Six years of marriage. One suitcase. That's all I was taking with me.Everything else in this house belonged to someone else now. The expensive clothes Damien had bought me, chosen by stylists who understood his taste better than mine. The jewelry that had been gifts without meaning, purchased by assistants and presented at obligatory moments.None of it was really mine. It never had been.I zipped the suitcase closed with a sharp sound that seemed to echo through the empty room.This was the last time I would pack my belongings in this house. The last time I would stand in the space that had once been my daughter's sanctuary, breathing air that still carried the faintest trace of her lavender shampoo.After everything was finished, I would go to Cecile and apologize for the deception I'd maintained. She deserved that much honesty, even if it came too late.But the pain Damien had

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 97 Everyone You Paid Off Is Invited

    Elara's POVI turned to see Damien striding down the hospital corridor, Isabella clinging to his arm like a delicate vine.The sight of them together - his protective posture, her delicate dependence - made my stomach clench with familiar revulsion.I wanted to expose everything right then and there. To scream the truth about Lily's death until the entire hospital heard me.But it wasn't time yet. It wasn't brutal enough."It's nothing," I said smoothly, my voice betraying none of the turmoil beneath the surface. "Lily hasn't returned yet. I came to ask if she needs any additional medication adjustments."Damien's expression shifted to that knowing look I'd grown to despise. The expression that said he'd caught me in another lie, that this was further proof everything I'd told him about Lily's death was fabricated.He turned to Dr. Harrison with the easy confidence of a man accustomed to having his concerns prioritized."Isabella isn't feeling well," he explained, his hand moving to re

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 96 The Stains on the Wedding Dress

    Elara's POVI stared at Isabella's name flashing on my phone screen for several long seconds, steeling myself for whatever fresh horror she wanted to show me.Taking a deep breath, I pressed the answer button.Isabella's face appeared on the screen, but something was different about her expression. Gone was the usual theatrical concern or fake sweetness. Instead, she looked almost... ordinary. Calm. Matter-of-fact."Elara," she said, her voice carrying none of the dramatic inflection I'd grown accustomed to. "I wanted to let you know that I've placed your wedding dress in your bedroom. It's all ready for the ceremony."That was it. No gloating. No elaborate performance. Just a simple, straightforward statement delivered in the most normal tone imaginable.The very normalcy of it made my skin crawl."Thank you," I managed to say, my voice steady despite the churning in my stomach.Isabella nodded once, still wearing that strangely neutral expression."You're welcome. I hope you'll be...

  • The Billionaire’s Regret After His Daughter Died   Chapter 95 She Wants to Steal Everything

    Elara's POVDamien's sarcastic words, dripping with contempt and accusation, only made me want to laugh.After obtaining that USB drive, I was completely done with this elaborate dance we'd been performing. Done with caring about his opinions, his assumptions, his deliberate misunderstanding of everything I did.The evidence of Isabella's guilt was burning like fire in my purse. Soon, very soon, none of his petty insults would matter anymore."Think whatever you want," I said calmly, stepping over the broken glass and ruined photographs without another glance.My heels crunched on the scattered diamonds from Lily's destroyed tiara, each step a deliberate punctuation mark to this conversation.Damien's face darkened at my dismissal, his hands clenching into fists at his sides."That's it?" he demanded, his voice rising with frustration. "You destroy irreplaceable gifts and just walk away?"I paused at the bottom of the stairs, turning back to meet his furious gaze with perfect composur
