The International Airport was crowded that afternoon, as usual. People were passing by, welcoming families or rushing to catch flights. However, from among the crowd, a long-haired woman with sunglasses stepped gracefully, accompanied by four children. Behind her glasses, Elena's eyes swept around, breathing in the air she missed so much.

"Is this where Mommy used to live?" asked Alva, the soon-to-be five-year-old boy, clasping his mother's hand.

Elena looked down and smiled, gently touching Alva's head. "Yes, dear. Mommy and your three older sisters used to live here."

"Wow, I didn't expect that. I'm going back to this town," exclaimed Olivia, now a teenager, her face looking more and more like Elena.

Katty and Delya were busy looking at the big buildings outside the airport. Their faces were enthusiastic.

"Everything looks different," said Katty.

"I was only three years old at the time, so I didn't really know the city," Delya continued.

Elena just smiled a little. Five years is not

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 95 - The Arrival of the Mother-in-Law

    Daylight was creeping in when Elena arrived at her boutique on the corner of Manhattan. She had just finished a meeting with Damian, and was now trying to regain her focus. As she entered the boutique, the little bell above the door tinkled softly. The staff greeted her warmly, and Elena returned the favor with a tired smile.Once inside her office on the second floor, she had just set down her bags when the door opened again."Mrs. Elena, we have a guest here to see you," said one of the staff."Who?" asked Elena, looking half-confused."Your mother-in-law."Elena blinked. "Nathan's mother?"The staff nodded. "Yes, Mrs. Elena."It didn't take long before an elegant woman walked into Elena's office. Her hair was in a neat bun, she wore a light blue suit and low heels. Her smile was friendly, authoritative, and a warm aura instantly filled the room."My daughter-in-law?" greeted Madame Sonia as she opened her arms for a hug.Elena quickly stood up and hugged the woman warmly. "Mom, I d

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 94 - Good News

    Morning sunlight filtered through a crack in the glass window of a café in downtown New York. The atmosphere is warm, the walls are covered with contemporary paintings, and the smell of fresh coffee permeates every corner. Elena sat on a bench by the window, wearing a soft gray coat, her hair neatly tied up. She looked calm. Although this woman had already given birth to four children, her appearance was even more stunning, and her weight was ideal. A few minutes later, Damian arrived. He looked more presentable than usual, though his face still held a weariness that could not be hidden. He stood by the table, for a moment just staring at Elena with a look that was hard to interpret."Elena," he greeted, his voice sounding careful, like someone who didn't want to disturb a dream.Elena nodded, smiling slightly. "Have a seat."Damian pulled out a chair, sitting down slowly. He watched the woman before him, trying to read the purpose of this meeting."I'm surprised you wanted to see me

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 93 - Not Going Away

    Elena looked into her husband's shaded eyes. The question struck the recesses of her heart subtly, yet deeply. She knew sooner or later Nathan would ask it. And tonight, when everything was quiet and the children were asleep, there was no better time to be honest."I'm not going," Elena replied firmly, her voice soft but sure.Nathan frowned, curious. "Are you sure? I know there are parts of your life left behind in that city. Companies, connections, and maybe old friends."Elena shook her head slowly. "Those things I can take care of from here. I've assembled a team I can trust. It's a different world now, husband. I can lead my company from a computer screen, through video conferencing, through weekly reports sent directly to me. I don't have to be there physically."Nathan held Elena's hand, his eyes looking deep, searching for unspoken honesty. "Then... why did you choose to stay here? I know you could have left at any time."Elena gave a small smile. "Because I already have a rea

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 92 - Divorce

    A week had passed. The sound of metal doors opening and closing echoed through the hallways of Rikers Island Women's Prison. Damian's steps sounded steady along the gray tiled floor. His hand held a large brown envelope that he had not let go of since the beginning.Isabella sat behind a thick glass partition, wearing an orange prison jumpsuit that made her face look even paler than usual. Her once perfectly coiffed hair now looked messy, her face tired, but her eyes still lit up with emotion when she saw Damian coming."Damian," she said quickly, standing up from the bench and approaching the glass. "Oh God, you're finally here."Damian sat up slowly without returning her smile. His eyes were sharp, his jaw hardened."I didn't come to defend you, Isabella," he said calmly but coldly.Isabella immediately panicked. "Wait, what do you mean? Damian, you know I was set up. I just... I just wanted to warn you about Elena. I didn't know the video would get out.""Don't lie anymore," Damian

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 91 - First Night After Marriage

    Silence filled the room, with only the soft hum of breathing and the quiet ticking of the wall clock. The dim lights created a warm, dimly lit atmosphere, as if enveloping them in a paused embrace of time.Nathan sat on the edge of the bed, his body slightly inclined, one hand gently touching Elena's back. The touch was unhurried, like someone reading poetry directly from the skin of a lover."Elena," Nathan murmured softly."Hm?" she replied softly, her eyes not daring to look directly at him."Thank you... for letting me be your husband tonight. "Elena swallowed, then nodded. "I know, I'm not perfect, I've kept my distance for too long, I've held on to all the hurt for too long. But tonight, I am yours completely. ."Nathan nodded slowly, then leaned closer. His lips gently kissed the back of Elena's neck, making her body tense up instantly. There was a subtle tremor that traveled from the back of her neck to the rest of her body.Elena took a deep breath, then slowly shifted, lyin

  • The Rise of the Betrayed Billionaire's Ex-Wife   Chapter 90 - Meeting Damian and Elena

    Dusk had just fallen when Damian stood in front of Elena's apartment door. He raised his hand, wanting to knock, but then hesitated and lowered it again. It took a few seconds before he braced himself, knocking twice.Soon, the door opened. Elena stood on the threshold in a simple white T-shirt and beige trousers. Her hair was in a simple bun, her face devoid of makeup. But the serenity in her eyes radiated a power that made Damian remember why he loved her in the first place. And why would he betray a woman as beautiful as Elena?"Elena..." his voice was hoarse. "I need a moment. Just five minutes, if you please."Elena nodded slowly. "Come in."Damian stepped in nervously, his eyes sweeping around the room."Would you like something to drink?" asked Elena politely, her voice flat but not cold."No need. I just want to talk."They sat down in the living room. Damian rubbed his sweaty palms together. Elena waited without interrupting."I canceled the custody hearing," Damian said fina

    Chapter 89 - Damian Cancels the TrialThe next day.Mr. Charles Lancaster's study was filled with the smell of cigars and old wood. The light from the desk lamp created long shadows on the wall. Damian stood with his back to his parents who sat opposite each other on the sofa, his eyes staring out the large window at the darkening garden. His suit hung loosely on his shoulders, his tie was loose, and his hair was slightly messy."I'm not going to continue the trial for Alva's custody," he said suddenly, his voice calm but firm.Margareth, who had been sipping tea, put down the cup with a loud noise. "What do you mean, Damian?" she asked, her voice rising an octave.Charles gave his son a sharp look. "Are you kidding me? After everything we've prepared-the lawyers, the evidence, the strategy-you suddenly pull out?"Damian slowly turned to face them. His face didn't show the slightest hesitation. "I'm not joking, Dad. I've given it a lot of thought and I realize that Alva is safer with

    Chapter 88 - Damian's rageThe sound of a car door closing loudly boomed in the hotel's basement parking lot. Damian pushed Isabella into the back seat of their black SUV. His face was red, his eyes blazing wildly."Shut up! Don't open your mouth one word!" he hissed, breath catching.Isabella staggered into the car, her feet dragging on the floor. As soon as the door closed, Damian entered from the other side, sitting next to her, immediately closing the glass partition between them and the driver."I ask you again, ISABELLA-IS THIS TRUE?!"Isabella twisted her body, her face still wet with tears. "Damian... I can explain...""EXPLAIN?!" Damian shouted so loudly that the window shook. "The whole world saw that video! That's your face! Your body! In a hotel bed with a fucking stranger! You... You've ruined my reputation!"Isabella grabbed Damian's arm. "Please, listen to me first. I'm doing this for you... for our company. We need investors, Damian! You know that! They won't give me m

    It's been one month since the video scandal took the world by storm. Elena chose to remain silent without clarifying, she worked quietly to organize legal measures, rebuild her image, and most importantly-prepare her final weapon.

Rows of cameras, microphones and journalists from various countries filled the room. Whispers and speculation filled the air.At 10 o'clock, Nathan entered first, standing next to the podium. Shortly after, Elena emerges from behind the curtain. Dressed in an ivory white suit, hair in a neat bun, her face was calm but her eyes were sharp. The whole room immediately fell silent."Thank you for coming to this press conference," Elena said, her voice clear and steady. "Today, I stand not as a designer, not as an entreprene
