Divorced She Reclaimed Her Empire Novels & Stories

This would be the perfect opportunity for her to leave him for me because she surely wouldn't pin another man's baby on him, would she? But, Emory definitely did. She did that and worse. According to her, this was the perfect time for us to have more money. She would divorce him after the baby is born so we could have a child in his name and also a lifetime share of his wealth. Her greed knew no end. I should have left her, but I couldn't. She was the woman I was deeply and madly in love with, the one who had me wrapped around her fingers. So, I went along with her plan.

He let out a small smile thinking that his wife must be playing with him. Only if he knew… Aarunha pulled back, smiling sweetly. “Now, go finish that song. I can’t wait to hear what love sounds like from my husband.” He nodded, still puzzled, still utterly in love with his own destruction. And she turned away, her eyes cold, and a smirk tugging at her lips. Because this wasn’t just revenge. It was a reclamation. Of her voice. Of her throne. Of her soul. It was time for a new queen to rise and rule the Rajput empire.

‌"You​ left her?" "I filed fo⁠r‍ divorce,‌" I s‍ai​d. "‍She didn't take it we​ll. She decided‍ if s​he could‌n't have the empire, she would b‍urn it down. She l‍it th​e match while I​ was inside doin⁠g invent​ory." "And you survived.‌" "I surviv‍ed‌. She di‌dn't. Or⁠ so I tho‌ught."

“I know. Theo texted me screenshots of the headlines. ‘Heiress Dumps Billionaire in Dramatic Courthouse Showdown.’ Iconic.” I laughed, really surprised. “They’re already calling it a showdown?” “Baby, you walked out in the rain last night, signed divorce papers this morning, and went straight to Voss Media like you owned the place. Which you basically do. That’s not a divorce. That’s a hostile takeover of your own life.” She dragged me to the sectional sofa, plush gray velvet, littered with fashion sketches and half-empty takeout containers. Her design studio took up one wall: mood boards, fabric swatches, a mannequin wearing a half-finished red gown that looked angry in the best way.

“Your divorce… it was for the best. For my life, hers, and ultimately, what we were each meant to find.” A chill ran down my spine. His words carried a weight I hadn’t anticipated, cutting through the noise of my thoughts and the pride I had been holding onto so tightly. I had thought that by asserting my dominance, by showcasing my achievements, I could intimidate him, unsettle him, and maybe remind Velma of what she had lost, or perhaps what I still offered. But he didn’t blink. He didn’t falter. He wasn’t even slightly rattled by me or my empire.

"Mother... he didn't marry her." Her mother looked at the screen and then back at Zara. "Then the battle for the empire has truly begun, my daughter. If he is free, then Falcon Enterprises is the next move." Zara stood up, the tears from the roadside bench completely dry. She wasn't just a girl in a flat anymore. She was the Queen, and her King had just burned his world down to find his way back to hers.

Of whether she had the strength to do what came next. "You have the annulment," he said. "The divorce. You don't have to do any of this. You could walk away. Disappear. Start over." "Could I?" She looked at him, and in her eyes he saw the woman he loved, yes, but also the Empress, the one who had spent twenty years serving an empire, who had sacrificed everything for stability, who didn't know how to be anything else. "Where would I go? What would I do? I've never been just Althea. I don't know who that is."

After a few minutes of heavy silence, the conversation began. He opened the conversation by explaining the nature of the contract. “One year of contract marriage. No feelings, no intimacy, no sex. Just total control over you and public appearances.” He paused briefly before continuing. “Isabella, let me tell you briefly about myself. From day one, I don’t believe in love, and I rarely have feelings for anybody.” He paused again. “The sole purpose of this contract marriage is to secure the empire for me, because my grandfather demanded I get married before he hands over the empire to me. My days are numbered. I was given 30 days to get married or lose the empire.”

"I gave up everything for that merger. And for what? A failed business deal and a divorce that made me a laughingstock." "So you came back for revenge, manipulated me and made me divorce my wife." "I came back for what should have been mine!" She's shouting now. "You were supposed to be mine! Sterling Holdings was supposed to be our empire! But I came home and you've replaced me with some pathetic…" "Careful." My voice drops to ice. "Finish that sentence and FBI or not, I'll make you regret it." She laughs. "Still defending her. Even now. Do you have any idea how that feels? To watch the man you loved move on like you never existed?"
