All Chapters of Once An Overlooked Housewife, Now A Queen Of Fortune: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

It was the thirtieth anniversary of Morel Industries.And yet, as the legal wife of the CEO, Raine could only stand among the crowd like an outsider, watching her husband waltz across the floor with his mistress.She fought to suppress her anger, forcing herself to stay composed. She was here tonight to solve problems, not create them.Felix, however, seemed to be enjoying every second as he spun Bianca around, his hand locked around hers. His suit framed the broad lines of his back, a display of raw, animal power. His large palm gripped Bianca’s slender waist possessively, as if she belonged to him. His chiseled, marble-like face—normally cold and severe—softened when he looked at his dance partner.Raine could almost hear the collective sighs from the women nearby—at that moment, it was as if half the panties in the ballroom had spontaneously combusted.Then Felix bent down and whispered something into Bianca’s ear, making her laugh out loud.Raine’s fist tightened again. When she g

Wren’s first instinct was to slam her foot on the gas, but unfortunately, her car had just broken down. Right when she was about to step into her new life, it chose to betray her.Wren forced herself to relax her facial muscles, then curved her lips into a confident smile.“Tell me, Omar, what are you doing here? Don’t tell me you regret rejecting my confession back then?” She raised her brows playfully. “Though it’s a pity—your full head of gray hair isn’t really my taste anymore.”Omar froze, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.“Wren.” He drew in a deep breath, his voice low and heavy. “Don’t provoke me with jokes like that.

But what kind of father would say in a board meeting that I’m unfit to be an heir? Daddy, your love is truly special.”With that, she moved to close the car door. She had just

Wren’s stomach tightened sharply the moment her gaze collided with that familiar pair of amber eyes.It was Felix. Her ex-husband.She thought bitterly, wondering how his heavy cologne and ominous aura could set her on edge before he’d even touched her. Long ago, she had liked that harsh, predatory scent clinging to him. Now it seeped into her lungs like poison.So, it seemed, her ex-husband was also celebrating the divorce—just as she was here tonight.“Well, Mr. Morel? Good evening. Quite the coincidence, isn’t it?” Wren’s mocking smile curved as she glanced at his large hand clamped around her wrist.Felix’s jaw tightened instantly. Dressed in polished leather shoes and a gleaming suit, he looked like a statue brought to life. His eyes swept over her with possessive force, detesting the boldness she had newly discovered.“What the hell are you doing?” he growled, his voice rolling like thunder.“That’s my question for you, don’t you think?” Wren shot back, her brow furrowing. “What
