Elena fell silent for a moment, staring into Julian's eyes that were blazing with pure fury. The sharp ache in her cheek and scalp suddenly vanished, replaced by a surging tide of vengeance she had suppressed for over a decade. "Do it," Elena whispered, her voice cold and completely unwavering. "Destroy them, Julian. I don't care anymore." Upon hearing her decision, a devilish smirk etched across Julian's firm lips. A powerful aura of masculine satisfaction radiated from his entire frame. "A very wise choice, sweetheart," Julian remarked proudly. He immediately reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone.

Her anger and disappointment evaporated instantly, replaced by a wild, frantic pounding in her chest. She was stunned, freezing inside Julian’s warm embrace. Her eyes blinked in sheer disbelief. She stared at the man’s handsome face from such a close distance. She had truly never expected that a man as ice-cold as Julian could fall in love with her. All this time, Elena had always believed she was merely a tool to satisfy his lust. A casual outlet for the billionaire's ego. "Julian, I .…" She stammered. Her tongue suddenly felt tied.

From this very second, you are nobody in my life!""Julian! Don't hang up! Julian—"Click!Julian cut the call with a swift flick of his wrist. Without a shred of mercy, he powered down his phone completely and tossed it onto the nightstand.The man lay back down, pulling Elena, who was beginning to stir from the noise, tightly back into his embrace.

A crazy, yet highly logical, idea began to take shape in her mind.'That’s it. If I can obtain proof of Julian’s affair with that slut, we’ll be on equal footing. He won't be able to threaten me with my own infidelity anymore, because he’s doing the exact same thing! And if this marriage truly must end in court …'Victoria smirked thinly. A devious smile amidst the remnants of her tears.'… I can demand a staggering amount in the divorce settlement because there is fault on both sides. I won't be leaving this house empty-handed.'Fueled by a renewed, burning resolve, Victoria stood up. She snatched her phone. its screen cracked, from the nightstand, ignoring the fact that her f
