He divorced his “worthless” wife for the woman he thought he loved.
Years later, he discovered he had thrown away an empress.
For three years, Evelyn Knight endured every humiliation as Caleb’s quiet, penniless wife.
Caleb barely noticed her but she played the perfect wife so bad she deserved more than a five star rating but all she got was a blank stare and a grimace at most.
Yet while they laughed at the woman in the cheap dresses, Evelyn secretly used her Sterling connections to keep her billionaire husband’s failing empire alive.
She gave him everything.
He gave her divorce papers.
“Seraphina is back.”
On their third anniversary, Caleb chose his first love and discarded Evelyn like she meant nothing.
So she signed the papers and then, she disappeared leaving behind one secret:
She was pregnant.
Years later, Caleb Knight is watching his empire bleed to death.
His final hope is a merger with the mysterious Sterling Global Group. Then the doors open.
And the woman who walks in makes his blood run cold.
The timid wallflower is gone.
In her place stands a breathtaking heiress draped in diamonds, surrounded by power and two children.
One has Caleb’s eyes.
The other carries Evelyn’s unmistakable aura.
“Evelyn…”
Caleb falls to his knees.
“I was wrong. Please, come home.”
She looks at him without emotion.
Then steps over his outstretched hand.
“The wallflower you threw away is dead, Mr. Knight.”
Her lips curve into a merciless smile.
“This is the Empress.”
He broke her heart.
Now she’ll break his empire.
And Caleb is about to learn the cruelest lesson of all:
The woman he thought he could replace was the woman he could never afford to lose.
