Novel & Cerita Retribution Of The Divorced Heiress

I pressed my lips together, trying to steady myself. “My child was gone.” I burst out in tears, holding my stomach tightly. “The child I prayed for… the child I waited for…” I shook my head slowly. “And Ethan…” My voice hardened. “He didn’t even come. Not once.” I laughed weakly. “Instead… he handed me divorce papers.” I looked up at Sebastian again. “And somehow… everything my father owned… was already in his name.” “I was left with nothing… nothing but betrayal,” I said through clenched teeth.

The receptionist didn’t ask too many questions, and soon enough, I was alone, sitting on the edge of the bed, my suitcase open in front of me. I exhaled, letting the events of the day settle in. The confrontation, signing the divorce papers, Luca’s threats… It all swirled in my mind, but I wouldn’t let fear paralyze me. Not anymore. I wasn’t going back. I was free now. And I would find a way to survive—without Luca, without his money, and without his control. But it wasn’t just about survival; it was about revenge. I would make Luca Moretti regret the day he was conceived.

ignited a furious fire within me. Leo's pursuit of me was devoid of love. His charming gestures, gentle kisses, sweet whispers, and lovemaking weren't for me but for potential gains. His desperation in trying to rekindle our relationship now solely revolved around money. Determined to ensure he received nothing from our marriage, I vowed to seek revenge and make him pay dearly. I prayed Grandpa remained unaware. His fragile heart couldn't withstand such news. Gathering my resolve, a gentle knock interrupted my thoughts. Ethan's voice, deep and warm, filtered through the door, "Hailey, may I come in?"

“You can't do this to me. Not after everything we have been through together.” I looked up at him. At the man I had once loved. The man whom I had given my all to and he had betrayed me in return. Isabella stood up now. “Ahtisa, you’re overreacting. If Adrian had done something wrong. You shouldn't be acting this irrational. He's your husband and moreover you know nothing about handling a company.” "No one asked for an outsider's opinion." I turned coldly at her and she stopped talking. “I’m not done,” I stood slowly. “I will also be filing for divorce.”

I was a survivor of a life I had once allowed to crush me. "Are you ready?" Xavier whispered, offering me his arm. "I've been ready for a year, Xavier. Maybe longer." As we walked down the grand staircase of our private estate, the elite of the world rose to their feet. This wasn't just a wedding; it was the coronation of a new era. We had turned a betrayal into a multi-billion dollar empire. As we stood at the altar, I didn't look at the flowers or the celebrity guests. I looked into Xavier’s grey eyes the eyes that had stayed constant even when I was too blind to see them.

“Stay. Away. From. My. Wife.” “Wife?” He laughed. “She’s your widow now, if you could even call her that. I’m sure her father will happily marry her off to me now that she’s been used.” He pulled Retribution from his belt. “She’s a bit too spirited, though. I’ll have to beat that out of her. After I get rid of your spawn, of course. I can’t have weakness in our house. Not again.” He moved toward me, and I continued to stand my ground. “She’s always been beautiful, I do have to compliment your taste. She will look lovely tied to my bed while I fill her with my new heirs.”

Xavier asked her with an inquisitive look. "Come on, Xavier, stop playing the unaffected with me; why do you think that she came back, and why did she show up at the auction?" Claudia asked Xavier. "How am I supposed to know that?" Xavier asked Claudia, and immediately she shot him an angry glare. "We both know that she came back for revenge; if she showed up at that auction and bought that jewelry for twenty million dollars, it's just to show us how strong she has become, and I'm very sure that she's already planning how to get back at us, and who knows, maybe she has already planned it and she's patiently waiting for the best time to strike," she said to Xavier, who seemed unconcerned by h

VALERIA Emiliano Navarro Reyes had already signed the divorce papers, and as planned, Renata Salgado Mora had retrieved them for me. His willingness to sign so quickly did not surprise me anymore. There was a time I would have called it love, but now I knew it was simply indifference dressed up as convenience. I stared out of the airplane window as the clouds stretched endlessly beneath me, and for a moment, memories I had buried for two years came rushing back with uncomfortable clarity.

I remember her eyes when she realized there was nothing she could do, when she realized that I had the final move. And now her daughter is trying to do that all again, daring to rise where her mother fell. History repeats itself. Unless I break it first. ******** Later, Marcus returned. He doesn’t keep me waiting long, he knows better. “We found a trail,” he says, placing a thin folder on my desk. I open it, flipping through the contents. Receipts. Transfers. A record of new staff being hired at the maternal family’s mansion. “So she’s run home to them.” I smiled slightly.
