Return Of The Betrayed Heiress
She made him powerful. He threw her away. Now it's payback time.
Emelda Jones left behind her rich family and comfortable life to help the man she loved succeed. Allen Carter had nothing when they met, but Emelda believed in him. She worked hard behind the scenes while he got all the fame and glory. He kept promising they'd build something amazing together.
But when Allen finally made it big, he did the worst thing possible—he dumped her for someone else and pretended like Emelda never helped him at all.
"Don't you think that I'm totally out of your league now?" he said to her.
Those harsh words didn't just break her heart. They woke up something fierce inside her.
So Emelda went back to her wealthy family and agreed to marry someone who could give her back the power and status she'd given up. When she ran into Allen again, she wasn't the same woman who used to hide in his shadow. Now she had bodyguards, confidence, and serious money behind her.
Allen couldn't believe his eyes. And when he had the nerve to call her a gold digger, Emelda hit him with the truth that would ruin him:
"Gold digger? No, I am the gold maker!"
Now Emelda has everything she needs—money, connections, and a burning need to get even. She's about to show Allen Carter exactly what happens when you mess with the wrong woman. Without her, he's nothing, and she's going to prove it.
Ready to see Emelda get her revenge? Start reading now and watch her take down the man who thought he could use her and throw her away!

Chapter: Chapter 63: Mirror of My RebirthSmith picked me up at noon on Saturday. The drive to the bridal boutique felt surreal. Six months ago, I couldn't imagine standing in front of a mirror trying on wedding dresses. Now, with Smith's hand resting on my knee as he drove, it felt like the most natural thing in the world."Nervous?" he asked."A little.""About the dress or the wedding?"I took a long, steady look at him. The strong line of his jaw. The way his eyes softened when he glanced at me. "Neither. I'm just realizing how different this feels.""Different how?""The kind that feels like starting over." I squeezed his hand. "Real different."The boutique was tucked between a flower shop and a café. Large windows displayed elegant mannequins in white gowns. A small sign read "Bella's Bridal" in delicate gold letters.Inside, soft music played. The scent of vanilla filled the air. Racks of dresses lined the walls. Each one more beautiful than the last.A woman approached us. She was older. Maybe sixty. Her silver hair

Chapter: Chapter 62: Forgiveness Isn’t For HimThe next morning, I was at my desk when Alice buzzed through the intercom."Ms. Jones, there's a Katherina Carter here to see you. She says it's important."My pen froze mid-signature. Katherina Carter. Allen's mother."Should I tell her you're in a meeting?" Alice asked.I stared at the stack of contracts in front of me. The easy answer was yes. But something in Alice's tone suggested this woman wasn't leaving without trying."Send her in."I stood as the door opened. Katherina looked smaller than last time. Her designer suit hung loose on her frame. Gray streaked through hair that used to be perfectly colored. Her eyes were the same shade as Allen's. But where his held manipulation, hers held only exhaustion."Thank you for seeing me," she said. Her voice trembled."Mrs. Carter." I gestured to the chair across from my desk. "Please sit."She lowered herself carefully. Like someone afraid of breaking. Her hands clutched a worn leather purse. The kind that had seen years of use."I kn

Chapter: Chapter 61: What Betrayal Left BehindThe Jones mansion felt different when Smith dropped me off.Maybe it was the way the afternoon light hit the windows. Or how quiet everything seemed after the chaos of the press conference. My mother waited in the foyer. She watched through the glass as Smith's car disappeared down the drive."You handled that beautifully today," she said. She pulled me into a hug that lasted longer than usual. "Come. I made tea."We settled in the sunroom. It was her favorite place in the house. Plants filled every corner. Their leaves glowed in the fading light. She poured Earl Grey into delicate china cups she only brought out for important conversations."You know," she said quietly, "you remind me of someone."I sipped my tea. I was grateful for its warmth. "Who?"Margaret stared at her cup for a long moment. The grandfather clock ticked steadily in the hall."Your Aunt Julia once had a business partner. Martin Owen."I blinked. "Julia? You never talk about her.""No," she said softly. "I don't."

Chapter: Chapter 60: Framed by LiesSmith's arm rested around my waist when my phone rang. Morning light slipped through the curtains. I didn't want to move. These quiet moments before the day began had become my favorite part of life."Let it go to voicemail," Smith murmured against my neck.The phone kept ringing. I reached for it anyway. Rachel's name flashed on the screen."It's Rachel. She wouldn't call this early unless something's wrong.""Answer it," Smith said.I pressed accept. "Rachel?""Turn on channel nine. Now."Her voice was tight. I sat up as Smith reached for the remote on his nightstand."What's happening?""Just watch."The screen lit up with a morning news anchor sitting straight and serious. The headline scrolling at the bottom made my stomach twist.RENEWED HEARTS FOUNDATION UNDER FIRE: FRAUDULENT CLAIMS SURFACE"We're following breaking news this morning," the anchor said. "Sources claim multiple women have filed false cases through the Renewed Hearts Foundation, seeking money rather than justice.

Chapter: Chapter 59: Second ChancesMorning sunlight filled the Renewed Hearts Foundation office. I sat at my desk and reached for my coffee. The engagement ring on my finger caught the light. Two days had passed since Smith proposed. I was still getting used to wearing it."Emelda, we have a problem." Rachel stood in my doorway with a thick folder in her hands. I still couldn't get used to how different she looked now. No more designer clothes or perfect makeup. She wore a simple navy blazer. Her hair was pulled back in a neat ponytail."What is it?"She stepped inside and closed the door. "The Melissa Nolan case. Something doesn't add up."I leaned back in my chair. "The startup founder? The one whose partner took everything and left when she told him she was pregnant?""That's what she's telling everyone." Rachel sat down and spread papers across my desk. "Look at these financial records."I looked at the documents. Bank statements. Business registrations. Email threads. Rachel had marked things in yellow highlighte

Chapter: Chapter 58: Smith's ProposalThe day passed in a blur of emails and meetings. Exhaustion settled deep in my bones. By the time the clock struck five, my inbox was finally quiet. That's when Smith showed up to pick me up.The drive back to the Jones estate was peaceful. The sun dipped low, casting golden light across the road. Smith kept one hand on the wheel, the other resting casually on the console between us. Neither of us said much. We didn't have to. The silence wasn't awkward. It was calm, familiar, like a language we'd learned to speak without words.When the gates of the estate opened, the familiar sight of home filled my chest with quiet warmth. The ivy climbing the stone walls. The tall oaks whispering in the evening wind. The house stood as it always did. Steady, peaceful, untouched by the chaos of the world outside.Mrs. Howell met us at the door, wiping her hands on her apron. "Welcome back, dear," she said with that kind smile that always made me feel twelve again. "Your mother's out visiting Helen

In the quaint town of Silverwood Falls, nestled deep within the misty forests of the Pacific Northwest, lies a secret as old as time itself. Under the enchanting light of the full moon, a hidden clan of werewolves roams the ancient woods, their existence shrouded in mystery and myth.
Enter Emily Hawthorne, a spirited botanist with a passion for unraveling the town's rich tapestry of folklore. When Emily stumbles upon cryptic clues hinting at the presence of supernatural beings lurking in the shadows, her insatiable curiosity is piqued. Determined to uncover the truth, Emily enlists the help of her childhood friend, Liam Grayson, and the enigmatic Isabella Cruz, owner of the town's occult bookstore.
As Emily delves deeper into the town's dark past, she discovers a sinister plot brewing beneath the surface. Gabriel Blackwood, the charismatic CEO of Blackwood Enterprises, has set his sights on Silverwood Falls, intent on exploiting its supernatural heritage for his own gain. With the help of his ruthless enforcer, Marcus Reed, Gabriel will stop at nothing to bend the werewolves to his will and harness their powers for profit.
Caught in the crossfire of greed and preservation, Emily finds herself drawn into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. With the help of Detective James Miller, a skeptical but open-minded investigator, Emily races against time to protect the werewolves and uncover the truth behind Silverwood Falls' hidden secrets.
But as tensions escalate and betrayals abound, Emily soon realizes that not everyone is who they seem. With enemies lurking around every corner and the full moon looming overhead, Emily must summon all of her courage and cunning to survive the whispers of the moon's spell and emerge victorious in the battle for Silverwood Falls' soul.

Chapter: Chapter 164: Reflections and New BeginningsThe battlefield lay quiet now, the echoes of battle replaced by the murmurs of the survivors. Silverwood Falls, though scarred and battered, began to breathe again, its people emerging from the shadows of fear and loss.I stood at the edge of the clearing, looking out over the town that had become my home. The sky was just starting to lighten with the first hints of dawn, casting a soft glow over the wreckage and the weary figures moving among it. The air was thick with the scent of smoke and earth, but there was also a new undertone of hope.Nathanial stood beside me, his presence a comforting anchor. He had bandages wrapped around his arms and a determined set to his jaw. Despite the exhaustion etched into his features, his eyes were bright, full of the unspoken promise that we would rebuild, no matter the cost."It's over," he said softly, breaking the silence.I nodded, though my heart was heavy with the knowledge that our victory had come at a steep price. So many of our friends

Chapter: Chapter 163: The Last ShowdownThe battlefield was a storm of chaos and bloodshed. Silverwood Falls trembled under the weight of the conflict, the clash of claws, and the roar of battle cries echoing through the night. Everywhere I looked, my friends and allies fought valiantly, but the losses were staggering. The Harbinger's forces were relentless, and their dark magic added a terrifying edge to their assaults.I moved through the battlefield with a singular purpose, my eyes locked on The Harbinger. His presence was a beacon of malevolence, drawing me forward like a moth to a flame. His dark form loomed ahead, his eyes glowing with a sinister light as he cut down anyone who dared to challenge him.My heart pounded in my chest as I approached, the weight of the ancient relic heavy in my hand. The knowledge and power I had gained from the sanctuary coursed through me, every lesson and every trial leading to this moment. I could feel the energy of Silverwood Falls itself pulsing in my veins, a testament to my bond wi

Chapter: Chapter 162: The Last StandThe air was thick with tension as we gathered in the council chamber, the ancient crystal in my hands pulsating with a warm, reassuring light. Nathanial, Lila, Elijah, and I stood around a makeshift war table, mapping out our final stand."The Harbinger’s forces are amassing just outside the town," Nathanial said, pointing to the map. "We need to strike hard and fast before they can fully breach our defenses."Lila nodded, her eyes scanning the ancient scrolls. "The ritual we've pieced together is powerful, but it will take time to perform. We need to hold them off long enough to complete it."Elijah stepped forward, his face set with determination. "I'll lead the defensive line. We can't let them reach the heart of the town."I took a deep breath, feeling the weight of leadership settle on my shoulders. "Lila and I will perform the ritual. Nathanial, you need to stay with us. Your strength will be crucial in channeling the relic's power."Nathanial squeezed my hand, his gaze steady.

Chapter: Chapter 161: Unholy AllianceThe chaos outside intensified as shadows and screams filled the air. My mind raced, trying to piece together our next move. Suddenly, a flash of insight struck me, and I realized there was more to The Harbinger's attacks than sheer brutality."Elara," I said, urgency tinging my voice, "we need to dig deeper. There's something we're missing. The Harbinger isn't acting alone."We spread out ancient texts and fragments of old maps, scanning for clues. Elara's fingers stopped on a passage, her eyes widening. "Emily, look at this."The text described an alliance between an ancient entity and a group of human adversaries. The words leapt off the page, confirming my worst fears. "The Harbinger is working with a rogue faction of The Order."Elara's face paled. "If that's true, their combined forces are even more dangerous than we imagined."Nathanial burst into the room, covered in dirt and blood. "Emily, we can't hold them off much longer. The defenses are failing."I turned to him, my resol

Chapter: Chapter 160: The Awakening of The HarbingerThe blinding light receded, leaving us standing in a room that now felt alive with ancient power. The relic hummed with energy in my hands, its warmth seeping into my skin. Elijah stood by my side, his eyes wide with awe and concern.Before we could fully comprehend the relic’s significance, the ground beneath us shook violently, and a chilling wind swept through the chamber. The air grew thick with an oppressive presence. An ancient force had been awakened."Do you feel that?" Elijah asked, his voice barely above a whisper.I nodded, gripping the relic tightly. "We need to get out of here. Now."As we turned to leave, a shadowy figure materialized before us, its form shifting and indistinct. The air around it crackled with dark energy, and a deep, resonant voice filled the chamber. "You dare to awaken me?"The figure solidified into a menacing entity, cloaked in darkness and exuding a palpable aura of malevolence. This was The Harbinger, an ancient entity bound to the relic, now free
