All Chapters of Reborn To Break His Heart : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

The rain was so heavy. It poured from the night sky, soaking Aria Whitmore to the bone as she stood frozen on the marble steps of the Blackwood Estate.Her fingers trembled around the divorce papers, their edges now soft and ruined from the downpour. Yet, the storm outside was nothing compared to the one tearing through her chest.Inside the gala, it blazed with life, crystal chandeliers casting golden light on women in silk gowns and men in tailored suits. And at the centre of it all stood her husband, Ethan Blackwood.Her heart tightened as she watched him slip his arm around Selena Hart, the woman everyone knew as his mistress but no one dared to confront. The cameras loved them. The society elites toasted to them. And Ethan?
