Returning with the same identity

That morning, Jasmine woke up with a different feeling.

There was no panic.

No urge to hide.

Sunlight slipped through the gap in the bedroom curtains, falling softly onto the marble floor and brushing the edge of her blanket. Jasmine opened her eyes slowly, then lifted her hand to her face—a reflexive movement that was no longer filled with fear.

She was still Jasmine.

The same name.

The same status.

But the way she now stood in this world… had changed.

In the bathroom, she stood before the lar

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   Night fell earlier than usual

    The city lights flickered on one by one, like rows of silent eyes watching from below. From the wide window of her apartment, Jasmine stood perfectly still. Her arms were folded across her chest, but her thoughts were moving far faster than the traffic streaming beneath her.The meeting earlier that afternoon had not been a simple conversation.It had been a reading of positions.A quiet measurement of power.And every word spoken had been a calculated move across an invisible board.Including Christopher’s.Her phone vibrated.The screen lit up.The same name.A single letter that never changed.**J.**Jasmine didn’t open it immediately. She let the screen glow for a few seconds before it dimmed again. Not hesitation—just habit. She never allowed herself to look eager.Finally, she unlocked it.> *Headquarters is moving faster than we predicted.*A faint curve touched her lips.She typed calmly.> *Because he’s panicking.*The reply didn’t come right away. Three dots appeared… disapp

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Disguised Trial

    The invitation arrived in the morning.It was not official. There was no logo. Just a brief message written in polite sentences and a time frame far too flexible to be called a coincidence.Christopher read it again before sending a short reply: *Alright.*He chose a neutral location—a business restaurant on the top floor of an office building. Not too luxurious, not too quiet. A place safe enough to talk without important witnesses.Jasmine arrived on time.Her dress was simple, its cut firm and precise. Her hair fell neatly over her shoulders. There was no trace of nervousness on her face. No sign that she was about to face someone who had once held half of her life.Christopher stood. “Thank you for coming.”“Your invitation was clear,” Jasmine replied briefly.They sat across from each other. A waiter came, took their orders, and left. Silence stretched between them.“I didn’t expect you to return like this,” Christopher finally said.“Like what?” Jasmine asked.“Calm,” he answere

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Name That Was Not Listed

    Christopher did not come home on time.It was past midnight when he was still sitting in his office, accompanied by a desk lamp and stacks of files. His jacket was off, his tie loosened. For the first time in a long while, he was working not to control—but to catch up.“Find all partners connected to that analysis,” he ordered briefly.The assistant across the desk nodded quickly. “We’ve traced them, Sir. The names that appeared… are unfamiliar.”“Unfamiliar doesn’t mean unimportant,” Christopher replied coldly.He stood and walked to the window. The city below looked calm, as if nothing had shifted. Yet he knew something was being pulled from beneath the surface.---At home, Valentina waited with a tense expression.“Did you find anything?” she asked the moment Christopher entered.“Not yet,” he answered shortly.“There’s no way the headquarters would move without a reason,” Valentina pressed. “Jasmine doesn’t have that kind of power.”Christopher set down his car keys. “You’re stil

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Crack That Begins to Show

    Valentina did not sleep well that night.The image of Jasmine’s face—calm, whole, and untouched—kept appearing every time she closed her eyes. Not the face of a woman who had returned to mourn, but someone who had come with a position.That morning, she stood in front of the mirror for far too long.“I’m his wife,” she murmured, like a mantra. “I’m the one who won.”Yet that conviction felt fragile.---At the branch office, the atmosphere was not as usual.Several meetings were postponed. Several reports were requested again. Valentina caught whispers that stopped every time she walked past.She entered Christopher’s office without knocking.“Why is the headquarters requesting an additional audit?” she asked sharply.Christopher let out a breath. “Procedure.”“Since when do procedures come one after another?” she pressed.Christopher stared at his computer screen. “Since this project was considered sensitive.”Valentina fell silent for a moment. “Because of Jasmine.”Christopher snor

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   Calculated Steps

    Morning in that city began with a meeting.The conference room on the twenty-first floor was filled with digital screens, projection charts, and faces accustomed to reading opportunities. Jasmine sat in one of the chairs without a prominent name label. She was present as an observer, not a decision-maker.Yet every note she made—concise, precise—drew attention.“This coastal data isn’t synchronized,” said a young executive. “The risk is high.”Jasmine lifted her head. “Risk can be managed,” she said calmly. “What cannot be managed is assumption without verification.”Several pairs of eyes turned. A middle-aged man crossed his arms. “And in your opinion, how should it be verified?”“Cross-check the logistics contracts with the branch cash flow,” Jasmine answered briefly. “There’s an unnatural time gap.”The room fell silent for a moment.A consultant looked at the screen, then nodded slowly. “She’s right.”There was no victorious smile on Jasmine’s face. She returned to writing, as if

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Dining Table That Was Never Warm*

    The invitation arrived in the afternoon.A cream envelope with handwriting too neat to be called sincere. Jasmine recognized the style without needing to read the sender’s name.Florentina.Jasmine looked at the invitation for a few seconds before placing it back on the table. A family dinner. A classic reason. A pretext always used when someone wanted to judge, not welcome.She exhaled slowly.“Alright,” she murmured. “Let’s settle this one by one.”---The house still stood in the same place.A tall iron gate, a wide yard, and a chandelier that always shone too brightly—as if to show that its occupants never lacked anything, except warmth.Jasmine stepped inside calmly.The servants bowed politely, clearly surprised to see a face so unfamiliar yet somehow familiar. No one dared to ask.In the dining room, Florentina was already seated at the end of the table. Her back straight, her attitude cold. Beside her, Jasmine’s father—silent, mostly looking down at his own plate. As if the pr

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Day She Was Cast Out

    “What do you mean, Mother?” Jasmine turned her head slowly. Her gaze was cold, sharp, and distant—as if the woman before her was no longer someone she had ever called mother. “Do you think I still hope for Christopher?” Her lips curved into a thin smile filled with irony. “Do you think I still want

  • The CEO's Secret Wife, The Ex-Fiance's Worst Nightmare   The Name Never Spoken

    Jasmine chose to lock herself in her room for almost the entire day.Not because her body was still weak, but because her mind was too full. Every time she closed her eyes, the image of the face in the mirror from yesterday afternoon returned to haunt her. The wound was real. She could not deny it.
