Mary
For seven torturous years, Elena endured every cruel trick, public humiliation, and cold threat hurled by her husband, Damian—the arrogant music company CEO. Ninety-nine times, Damian threatened her with divorce over the trivialities of daily life, using it as a sick game to force Elena to her knees, begging him to stay. Ninety-nine times, Elena humbled herself, desperately clinging to the childhood sweetheart who had once meant everything to her.
He mocked the permanent tremor in her hand—never caring that her hand was ruined while saving his life from a burning building. Instead, he openly flaunted her selfish stepsister, Chloe, giving away Elena’s most prized possessions and reducing her dignity to ash.
When Damian demands divorce for the 100th time, expecting Elena to weep at his feet once more, she finally snaps. She turns her back on the toxic marriage, signs the papers without a single tear, and walks away for good.
This time, Elena isn't begging. She is reclaiming her mother’s stolen life’s work, exposing the snakes in her family, and stepping into the arms of Carter—the ruthless head of the world's largest conglomerate and Damian’s greatest rival. Carter has waited years in the shadows for Elena to cut ties with her past, and he is ready to offer her a new marriage, ultimate protection, and absolute revenge.
Damian thought he was breaking her. Now, he's about to watch the woman he discarded become the untouchable queen of his worst enemy.
