Chapter 1 – Pregnancy

Sophia POV"Congratulations, Mrs Matteo," the doctor said with a gentle smile."You're two months gone."The joy I felt when he announced the pregnancy was immeasurable, but the joy didn't last long when the doctor's voice came again. The look on his face this time held nothing but concern."Make sure you don't strain yourself too much Sophia. You need to be careful this time around so you won't fall down the stairs again." He hesitated before he continued. "Your womb is already weak, if you have another miscarriage, your chances of becoming a mother will be two out of hundred."Then he handed me the result. My finger trembled as I collected it, I thanked him and left the hospital. Adjusting my facemask and face cap to hide my bruised face.I flagged down a cab and settled for the back seat, my whole body shook from the emotions I was trying so hard to keep in check, and the first tears made its way down my cheek.I was born into an abusive home where I watched my dad constantly hit m

Chapter 2 – Losing her Pregnancy

Sophia's POVAlessia immediately stood up, rushing forward to the door, but I yanked her back. "No! He can't see you! Alessia! no!"My voice cracked, as I pulled her away from the door, pushing her into the bedroom. "Please, just listen to me."She tried pulling away, her face was mixed with confusion and frustration. "I want to talk to him, Sophia. I want to—""Please! Please! Just stay hidden," I begged with my voice trembling.Her face softened for a moment, seeing tears welled up in my eyes, with a reluctant nod, she finally agreed, I shoved her into the wardrobe as I whispered. "No matter what happened or what you heard, please don't come out."Stepping back into the living room, I froze in one place, like one drenched in cold, filthy water, unable to blink or even breath when Matteo's murderous gaze swept over me, and then I saw it. The pregnancy result was in his hand."You're pregnant," he said, with a deadly tone, as he dropped the result back on the floor. The look in his e

Chapter 3 – Alive

Sophia's POVWhen I opened my eyes, I was in a completely different place. The white light above me blinded my vision. I touched my face and realized it was wrapped in bandages. Sharp pain coursed through me, my whole body stiff, until I heard a voice. "You're awake," the figure said with a relieved smile.I sat up abruptly, with the help of the figure I didn't recognize."Where am I? What happened to me?" I questioned searching his face for an answer, I didn't quickly remember what happened to me."I'm sorry Sophia," he said quietly. "We tried our best." What are you talking about? I looked around more confused. However I immediately felt a sharp pain in my stomach, and every memory of what happened crashed back into me.I gasped suddenly as my hand flew to my belly. "My child....my baby..." I whispered, my voice breaking as I held my stomach, hoping against all hope that the memories were just a dream."Sophia," he called softly.I lifted my teary eyes to meet his gaze."We tried

Chapter 4 – Finding another body

Sophia's POV I looked at him, my eyes still glassy from the memories. "Why should I believe you'll help me? They're your family.""They've hurt me too, deeper than you can ever imagine. And I want to pay them back for what they did to me." He said.I stared at him, confused but too exhausted to ask questions."And I'm not helping you for free," he added calmly. "You'll have to get married to me, that way I can secure my position as the CEO from my adoptive parents."A painful bitter laugh escaped my lips. For a moment, I foolishly believed he might be different from Mattoe, but he wasn't, none of them were. He saved me because he needed something, not because he truly pitied me.I would never enter that same circle again. Not after everything Mattoe did to me. If I want to take revenge, I'll do it myself and in my own way."I don't need your help," I said with anger burning through my voice. "And I'm not interested in getting married to you."The silence that followed my words was he

Chapter 5 – Sentence to three years imprisonment

Marcus PovThe hotel room door slammed shut behind me, the sound echoing louder than it should have. I didn't even bother turning on the light, I just stood there with my fists clenched, my chest was rising and falling like I was fighting to breathe."I'm not interested in getting married to you." Her words replayed in my head.I punched the wall hard, pouring all my frustration at it. I felt pain in my knuckles, but it's nothing compared to the pain I felt when I looked at Sophia's cold eyes, she was convinced I was no different from Mattoe.I wasn't angry at her, I was angry at the world that broke her before I ever got the chance to protect her.I dragged my hand through my hair and sank onto the edge of the bed. My thoughts spiral back to everything I had buried for years.From the moment we lost our dad, Mattoe and I were never equal. My mother made me live under Mattoe's name, she warned me never to let anyone know we were twins.While Mattoe and Vivienne went to school, I staye

Chapter 6 – Married

Sophia's POVI woke up the next day feeling weak and drained. The pain in my heart was too much for me to bear. I still can't believe that I had lost my child, my sister was in prison, and the world believed I was dead.They didn't question the lies, they didn't wait for the truth, they simply decided. And in that moment, I realized justice doesn't exist for people who have no power.I understood that I couldn't fight them alone, not with a ruined name. If I want them to pay, I need to become someone they couldn't silence. What I needed was power, and if marrying Marcus was the price of that power, then I would pay it.I turned my head slightly and saw Marcus sleeping beside me, his head resting awkwardly on the edge of the bed. I gently adjusted it so he could sleep more comfortably.He caught my hand before I could pull away."You're awake," He said slowly.He straightened up and said, "Do you feel okay? Should I call the doctor?"I looked at him without saying a word. Even though h

Chapter Seven - Three Years Later

Sophia's POV I stood by the window, all dressed, as the sunlight of the city washed over my face.Three years had passed since we moved to California after our wedding, and Marcus kept his promise. I was now a woman with power who no longer flinched in her own shadows.

I knew his company was definitely on the verge of bankruptcy for him to be persistently sending emails. And this was the best time for me to take revenge on him, my father, and his family.The door opened slowly, jotting me out of my thoughts."Are you ready?" He asked quietly."Yes," I nodded with a gentle smile.Falling in love was never part of the contract. It was ne

Chapter Eight - The Meeting that shook him

Mattoe's POV SIX MONTHS AGOI sat in my living room, drinking myself to stupor.The past few years have been unbearable. It felt like a part of me was missing. Everything in the house reminded me of Sophia. No doubt, I was the reason for her demise, but I had lived for over two years, drowning in regret, for every action and every decision I had made.I never intended to marry her. I never wanted to be abusive towards her. But I was a man who craved power, and a man who had no choice but to obey his mother's every command.My mother forced me into marrying Sophia, and she instructed me to beat her regularly, threatening to strip me off my position as the CEO and replace me with Vivienne if I disobeyed. I had worked too hard for that company, and the last thing I wanted was for it to be taken away from me.What escalated the abuse was the day I found out Sophia was pregnant. I had never slept with her since we got married, and at that moment, I believed my mother was right–that she wa

Chapter Nine – Becoming A Shareholder

Sophia's POVThe look on Mattoe's face was worth every scar he gave me. Seeing the fear in his eyes filled me with a dark satisfaction.I dug my nails into my skin hard, holding back the rage that shot through me when he called Sophia. He didn't deserve to call that name with his filthy mouth, after everything he did.I wouldn't touch him yet, I'll become a shareholder in his company by any means possible. I'd make him trust me, make him depend on me, until he wouldn't see the end coming.I was so lost in my thoughts that I barely noticed my phone vibrating.A message from Marcus came through."How did the meeting go?""It went well," I typed back. "But I didn't allow him to partner with our company.""Why?" His reply came immediately.My finger hovered over the screen. I couldn't tell Marcus the truth. He would never agree with the plan. And this fight is mine alone, I wouldn't let anyone get hurt because of me again.Another message came through."I'll be back in New York tomorrow."

Chapter 10-Nothing left to lose

Sophia's POV In an instant, he kissed me forcefully, tearing my gown into shreds in his hands.I panicked, my hands clutching his broad shoulders as I tried to push him away. I struggled beneath him, and my words were muffled by his mouth."Marcus......get off me," I managed to say."Not today, Astrid," he replied–and then he stopped kissing me.He grabbed both my hands and pinned them above my head. My eyes widened as I stared at him in fear."Am i Mattoe?" He demanded. "Am I the one who hurt you? It's been three years Astrid. I thought after everything, you just needed time to heal." His voice cracked. "What do u want me me to do? Just tell me what I should do to make you love me."The room fell silent, and I could hear my own heartbeat."Please, let me go," I whispered in pain. "You're hurting me," I bit down on my lower lips, tearing my gaze away from him.He froze, then he immediately let me go.I saw the flicker of regret in his eyes."I'm sorry," he apologized. "I'm so sorry,
