Damien’s POVI didn’t reach for the document immediately, I simply stared at the lawyer.The lawyer swallowed nervously under my gaze. “Mr. Blackwood, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”“Where did this come from?” I asked, my voice dangerously calm. “You’re telling me this is a real divorce certificate?”“Yes, sir.”I picked up the certificate and looked at it again then I tore it in half and threw the pieces onto the floor.“You conspired with Aurora to deceive me?” I snarled at him. The lawyer’s face went pale. “I wouldn’t dare, Mr. Blackwood. The certificate is genuine.”He quickly explained. “It was processed through the Civil Affairs Bureau using the divorce agreement Mrs. Blackwood gave me. You can verify it yourself.”I stared at him. “I never signed a divorce agreement with Aurora.”The words left my mouth when I stopped as a memory suddenly flashed through my mind.It was a stormy night. Thunder had been shaking the windows.Bella had called me at midnight because

Aurora’s POVThe next day at the Carter family mansion, I sat on the sofa of my family home watching television while my mother’s gaze remained fixed on me.After enduring it for several minutes, I finally turned off the TV and looked at her.“Mom, is there something you want to say?”She hesitated before finally asking, “I heard you called the police and had Damien arrested. And that post you made last night—what exactly was that about? Did you really divorce Damien? And did you really marry Alexander Sterling?”I knew how shocked she must have been.After all, Damien and I had been married for years. Everything had happened so suddenly that even my own mother was still trying to understand it.“I called the police, but Damien has enough connections to keep himself out of jail, doesn’t he?”My eyes narrowed.“Besides, it was already a mercy that I didn’t make Damien and Bella pay with their lives for what happened to Chloe.”“Did Chloe really lose her leg because of those attack dogs?

Aurora’s POV“Aurora, you don’t have to keep coming here every day. I’m much better now.”Chloe lay quietly on the hospital bed. She had barely moved since the surgery.Her parents still didn’t know the full truth about what had happened at the Blackwood compound. Whenever they saw me, they thanked me for being such a good friend to Chloe.Every time I heard it, my eyes fell to Chloe’s empty pant leg.The guilt became unbearable.“I’m sorry, Chloe.”She immediately shook her head. “Don’t start again.”“If I hadn’t gone there—”“It wasn’t your fault.” She forced a smile. “I heard Bella is going to prison.”“Yes.”“At least she’ll pay for what she did.”“Five years isn’t enough.” Coldness filled my voice. “But it’s a start.”I looked at Chloe. “As for Damien, I won’t let him walk away from this either. Alexander is already making arrangements to strike at the Blackwood Group.”Chloe’s expression changed. “Aurora, don’t destroy yourself because of me.”“I’m not.” I took her hand. “I’m doi

Damien’s POVThe next three days were a nightmare.Alexander Sterling didn’t give me a chance to recover as he attacked one Blackwood business after another.Accounts were frozen, and our biggest partners backed out of their deals.Men who had spent years working for my family suddenly received offers from Sterling and walked away.Even some of our allies stopped answering my calls.It wasn’t just the money.Alexander was dismantling the Blackwood empire piece by piece and I couldn’t stop him.I poured everything I had into keeping the empire standing.Personal accounts, private investments. I called in every favor I could call in but none of it was enough.By the morning of the fourth day, the headquarters that had once been filled with people was almost empty.I sat behind my desk, staring at the city through the window.My assistant stood nearby.“Boss…” He hesitated. “I never thought Mrs. Blackwood would really go this far.”I didn’t answer.“She married Alexander Sterling today.
