Vivian povOnly I understood what that gesture meant. After all, not long ago, Scarlett had personally told me that she was pregnant with Dominic Blackwood's child.I knew that Scarlett Hayes had no idea I was Miele; the only reason she acted this way was to mock me for having nothing.But since we were both first-time mothers, why should I let Scarlett have the upper hand?I smirked and raised my middle finger in a provocative gesture.Scarlett Hayes clenched her fists in anger, but then she remembered that she was the one who ultimately held the winning hand, while I was just floundering. Her mood lightened considerably.She deliberately shifted closer to Dominic Blackwood, allowing the photographer to capture the moment.According to her plan, once the competition was over, she would buy the gossip articles about the two of them, declaring to the elite women of Paris that she was the rightful Mrs. Blackwood. She would also send a signal to the Blackwood family to see how Killian wo

Nellie pov My knee didn’t crash into Scarlett Hayes's abdomen; instead, it stopped just an inch away from her belly. At that moment, Scarlett Hayes was pale with fear, pressed tightly against the wall, her body trembling uncontrollably. A hint of disdain flickered in my eyes. Most expectant mothers instinctively protect their bellies when faced with danger, but Scarlett didn't. It seemed she was a selfish woman who viewed her child merely as a tool for climbing the social ladder, showing no concern for the baby's life or death. As if a thought struck me, Scarlett finally covered her abdomen. Realizing I had no intention of harming her, and feeling embarrassed by her earlier reaction, she blurted out in a mix of shame and anger, "Vivian Carter, you’re truly vicious! You’ve taken Mrs. Blackwood's place for three years, can’t even have a child, and now you’re trying to harm my baby with Dominic!" I raised an eyebrow and asked, "How far along are you, Scarlett?" Scarlett bit her lip and

Chapter fifty-three

James povThe implication was clear to me: the so-called freedom vivian enjoyed now was granted by him, and whether he decided to take it back was entirely up to his mood.I spat blood in frustration at his retreating figure. What a dog of a man!However, Dominic Blackwood had landed a solid punch to my face. I had always cared about my looks, and there was no way i could show up in the audience with a swollen face, let alone be a guest for Vivian.Marvis styles couldn’t help but chuckle, “Dominic, are you marking your territory?”Dominic Blackwood replied with a straight face, “Who can stand by while someone flaunts their pet in front of their old master?”I didn’t have the power to affect his emotions; what mattered to him was his own pride. If anyone was to blame, it was me for being so arrogant. He had just divorced vivian, and now i was parading her around in public as if to slap him in the face. Was he not allowed to retaliate?Marvis styles saw through it but chose to keep quie

Chapter fifty-four

Scarlett povHumiliation, mockery, anger, and resentment crashed down on me like a torrential rainstorm. Yet, in response to Vivian Carter's "thank you," I forced a smile that twisted my expression into something almost sinister. "Miss Miele, you're too kind. It was just a small effort, nothing to mention."Her voice was filled with sincerity. "The soul of a wedding dress lies in its embellishments. Without the expensive accessories you gifted me, how could I have won the judges' and audience's favor? So, Scarlett, you are truly my benefactor."I was nearly furious enough to spit blood. To me, her words felt like a taunt, mocking me for handing the championship to my rival on a silver platter.When she returned to the lounge holding her trophy, James Scott couldn’t stop exclaiming, "What the hell?!" "Dude, how did you pull that off?" "Man, I can't believe I missed such an incredible turnaround!"What hurt him even more was that he had foolishly pulled back his bets on Vivian before he

Chapter fifty-five

Vivian pov In just one night, I had become the enemy of the entire internet, labeled with all sorts of dirty tags like "gold digger," "shameless," and "materialistic." My phone was practically blowing up, but I didn’t answer a single call, shutting it off and sleeping until noon the next day. Just then, the doorbell rang. Thinking it was Manni Stone bringing me some essentials, I opened the door only to find Lia kelvin standing there. Seeing my disheveled appearance, Lia couldn’t help but tease, “You really are Boss Carter. Even with the world on fire outside, you manage to stay so calm.” “Did James scott send you?” I asked. “Yeah, he’s worried you might do something drastic alone, so he asked me to keep you company.” I chuckled softly. After all, I was someone who had faced death twice; I wasn’t about to be fazed by a little online drama. The first time was nearly on the operating table for a kidney transplant, and the second was the soul-crushing marriage that had haunted me for th

Chapter fifty-six

Dominic POVUhhEthan brooks analyzed seriously, "Usually, when someone is faced with such a devastating accusation, they would immediately jump to defend themselves. But Vivian hasn't responded at all, not even bothering to explain. She's just waiting for me to clarify things myself."I shot him a cold glance. "What makes you think she's deliberately waiting for me?"Ethan replied passionately, "Sir, the man in that photo is you! If you just admit it, you would clear Vivian's name and publicly acknowledge your past feelings for her. I believe what Vivian cares about more is the latter, not the former."The more Ethan spoke, the more excited he became. "You never publicly acknowledged Vivian's identity during your three years together. She must have felt wronged, which is why she’s trying to force you to admit it. To put it simply, Vivian still has feelings for you; it's just that you’ve never formally expressed yours. Isn’t this the perfect opportunity?"I raised an eyebrow. "So you’

Chapter fifty-seven

(Vivian POV)Her bodyguard had already cleared out the café, leaving her free to unleash her anger on me without restraint.I didn’t give her a second chance. I suddenly grabbed her wrist and, using the momentum, slapped her twice.Her cheeks instantly turned red and swollen, blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Clearly, she hadn’t expected me to fight back.Furious, she exclaimed, "Vivian Carter, you should leave some room for others; it’ll be easier to meet again in the future. You’re trying to ruin me and Dominic—don’t you think about how you’ll survive in Paris after this?"Lia kelvin, known for her fiery temper, couldn’t stand by any longer. Without waiting for me to respond, she splashed her hot coffee right in her face."Scarlett, do you have no shame? You're the one stealing someone else's husband and carrying an illegitimate child, waiting to take their place. How can you still have the nerve to question the victim?""Lia, this is a private matter between Vivian and m

Chapter fifty-eight

Dominic POVI pressed my thin lips together, recognizing the same old tricks. First, she would stir up trouble, then come crawling back to me for peace.After all these years, I was tired of the same routine. Why couldn't she come up with something new?But since she was going through all this trouble to give me an out, I might as well accept it.As I reached for my phone to call her back, I suddenly remembered that Vivian Carter had blocked my number. Without hesitation, I snatched Ethan brooks's phone.While I pondered how to respond to Vivian's 'hidden intentions,' her voice came through the line: "Ethan, please tell Dominic that I posted the divorce certificate just to prove my innocence. I have no other intentions, and I hope he doesn't misunderstand."My voice caught in my throat, and my expression turned icy."Ethan, can you hear me?"I abruptly hung up the phone, and the atmosphere in the car became unbearably tense.Ethan brooks, who had overheard everything, braced himself a

Chapter fifty-nine

Vivian povWhen I married into the Blackwood Family, my own family secretly asked Dominic Blackwood for Fifty million. During my return visit, Dominic placed the check on the table right in front of me. At that moment, I felt humiliated and heartbroken. I had willingly donated a kidney to Dominic out of love and had gone through so much to marry into the Blackwood Family. My family's demand felt like they were selling me off like a piece of meat, and the price was shockingly high. Suddenly, it seemed like my love had been tagged with a price, making it feel cheap. Because of that Fifty million, the women of the Blackwood Family had been subtly mocking me, calling me a leech, finding ways to drain the Blackwood Family’s resources back to my own family. I couldn’t convince Linda Carter to return the money, and feeling guilty, I endured the humiliation from the Blackwood Family. After this slap in the face, my family never brought up the idea of me returning home again. Yet, after I post

Chapter sixty

Dominic POVI furrowed my brow and quickly texted Scarlett Hayes: "Are you pregnant?" When Scarlett didn't reply right away, I lost patience and tossed my phone aside.Godwin Jones chimed in seriously, "I bet Scarlett was trying to stir up some rumors to gauge Killian's reaction. Who knew your ex-wife would strike back so hard, ending up with a divorce certificate and leaving her with the label of a mistress? I guess she's not willing to back down, so she released those photos to try and leverage her way back into the spotlight.""Tsk, tsk, tsk, Dominic, I suddenly feel like neither your new flame nor your old love is simple. And from what I see, your old love is even more formidable. Why not just begrudgingly remarry Vivian Carter? Finding a woman who is both beautiful and smart to be your supportive partner is quite a challenge."I felt even more frustrated. I realized I had come to the wrong place tonight and was only making myself miserable."Godwin Jones, shut up."But Godwin onl
