I urged, my voice low and tight. He nodded and continued, “I asked her to marry me that December. She said yes. A year later, I lost a major business deal. I was devastated. I went to a bar and drank too much. When I came home, I saw who I thought was Vivian sitting in the kitchen with a glass of wine. I kissed her. Took her upstairs. I didn’t give her time to say a word.” He stopped, looking sick. “When it was over, she fell asleep. I went downstairs to find Vivian sitting on the couch crying.” His voice cracked. “And then…”

This was big news, news that would shake the entire city of Lake Side. Everyone knew me. Mr. May, the recent billionaire. Everyone also knew that today, Racheal May and I were divorcing. The city whispered about it, the press had already written their headlines, and people believed she would walk away with half of everything I owned, becoming the richest woman in Lake Side overnight. But what they didn’t know, what no one could see coming, was that today would not end the way they expected. And when it unfolded, it would be something so different, something no one had the foresight to imagine.

I glance at the screen, and a message pops up from one of the people I’ve been paying to spy on Knoxx. [He and Caroline finalized the divorce today.] A grin spreads across my face, and I can’t stop the rush of excitement flooding through me. Finally, it’s happening. Knoxx and Caroline are done. She’s out of the picture, and I’m free to step in and claim the life I deserve. The life I’ve been planning for. I will be the original Mrs. Wayne. I fix my makeup, glancing at myself in the mirror. Everything about me screams success, confidence, and wealth. This is the life I deserve, and I’ll do whatever it takes to secure it.

The women looked at Fifi with envy, and the men drooled. Chad's toes curled when he saw Fifi, and he smiled awkwardly. "Fifi, you're here—" "Yeah, I'm here!" Fifi walked up to Chad, smiling broadly. She lifted Chad's chin with her delicate fingers, teasing him. "Let me see. You look different after your divorce. You look better now. When do we get married?" Immediately, the villa fell silent. The crowd's jaws dropped in disbelief. Fifi was estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars as an A-list celebrity before she reached her 30s.

And when her wounds get better, she'll take the private jet to Ibiza to party with her fellow billionaire housewives. That was her life, and she loved it, telling me it was the best sort of life for a woman. She continued her 'one slap to a black card' lifestyle until her dear husband caught her cheating and asked for a divorce, leaving her penniless. "Jane?" Papa Ben calls again. I groan, holding my head. "I'm fine, thank you, Papa." He nods and scoops some food into my plate before pushing it to me. Cicero is seated opposite me, busy with his food, ignoring us.

But Amelia wasn't the quiet, easily dismissed wife anymore. She was a billionaire in her own right, formidable enough to expose corporate fraud within weeks of taking control, magnetic enough to draw genuine attention from a man who apparently had his choice of more conventional, uncomplicated partners. If Adrian Kingsley genuinely fell for Amelia, publicly, permanently, the media narrative would shift entirely. No longer the wife Damian carelessly discarded, finding unexpected success on her own. Instead, the woman who had not only survived her divorce but emerged triumphant, claiming a partner more polished than the man who had failed to appreciate her.

At the hospital, confronting me, she looked confident and composed, as if nothing could affect her, proud in the way someone could only be when they knew they were good at what they did. She has that same look now. She is still confident, but now it isn't because of her work or her degrees. She stands in the banquet hall as the center of attention effortlessly, dressed to the nines, gems glittering around her throat and highlighting the bright color of her eyes. She looks gorgeous; she also looks angry and it takes a moment for me to register her words. "Don't forget, the reason we got a divorce isn't because of being incompatible as lovers let alone partners, but because of your infidelity.

How did she become so successful? Memories of the past clawed their way into my mind, unbidden and relentless. I remembered the day she handed me the divorce papers. She had nothing then, no wealth, no status, no prospects. Just a woman with a suitcase, stepping into a battered old cab, vanishing from my life like a whisper in the wind. And now? Now, she was standing on that stage, being celebrated as a CEO. The thought sliced through me like a blade, sharper than I cared to admit.

she said to Justin, who was sitting on the couch before dragging her luggage and walking out. As she was walking, Xavier couldn't help but smile to himself. Looking at her walking away, the only thought that came to his mind was when he had divorced Sarah because of her. Only if he hadn't been stupid back then, he would have realized that Claudia was after his money, not his love. He only realized it when Sarah left; unlike Claudia, Sarah was ready to sacrifice everything for him despite not knowing that he was rich.

She slowly became materialistic, but what she experienced these days made her feel as though she had reached the end of her journey through life. She was really tired of living in this glorious social class behind different masks of hypocrisy, so she agreed to get a divorce without taking much of the Chase Group’s fortune. She took only two million, which was probably the money she used to spend in less than a few months.

Then, she hailed a taxi outside and headed for the Walton Group where Gideon was.
