[Note: Matteo's sister is Maxine, guys! I'm sorry I didn't notice early. I have already edited the names. Thank you for noticing!]

Summer’s Point of View

Although Amby seemed to have shed a considerable amount of weight, her physique remained well-toned. Her attire effectively camouflaged any perceivable alterations, and she had expertly concealed her once-dominant eye bulge with cosmetics. Her professionalism in her line of work was truly admirable, and she deserved recognition for it.

Standing next to me, Steven held Stefani in his arms as we watched Maxine and Amby walking towards us. Amby had a sincere smile on her face while Maxine looked genuinely happy, but it was clear to me that their happiness was fake. As they approached us, I felt Steven’s strong arms wrap around me, and his breath brushed against my cheek.

“I will protect you this time…” he whispered.

I remained still as a gentle hand caressed my heart, and for the first time, I sensed sincerity in him. Nevert

    Summer’s Point of ViewThe announcement made by Amby left the people in shock, and they started creating a commotion. After that, she proceeded to move towards the stage and fixated her gaze on Steven.“Steven, you can’t do this to me!” she roared. “I waited for you for over seven years after you broke up with me and announced that you were getting married to someone else! And now you’re telling me you have a family while I’m here still suffering?!”“Stop,” Steven warned in a cold tone. “You should reconsider what you’re about to say, Amby.”“Why?! Are you afraid that they will know you slept with me after your wife left you?!”“I said stop!”“No, I won’t stop!” She burst into tears suddenly. “Steven, why can’t you love me? You slept with me when you were already married. Isn’t that supposed to be love?”The murmuring grew so loud that the crowd became uncontrollable. Each person was offering their own commentary on the situation.“Is this true? Did he actually cheat?’‘But they were

    Steven’s Point of View[7 years ago]I was in awe as I gazed up at the towering skyscraper that loomed over the city. The glass walls of the building reflected the bustling landscape around it, creating a kaleidoscope of colors that dazzled my eyes. As I stood there, I felt a mix of excitement and anticipation for this upcoming wedding. I knew that this marriage would not only bring me bliss but also the opportunity to seek revenge against the person responsible for my parents’ untimely death.I was filled with an intense determination that flowed through my veins. I was now prepared to conquer the world and grab everything that had been denied to me before. I was determined to leave nothing behind, not a penny or even a shred of dignity for that man. I planned to take away everything from him - his wealth, fame, family, and even… his lover. Nothing would be left behind.“Mr. Carter, are you absolutely certain that you don’t want to meet her before the wedding?” Brandon inquired.“No.

  • Divorcing My Ruthless Husband    Chapter 135: A Deal with Amby

    Steven’s Point of View From the moment I laid eyes on her, I knew she was someone special. Her complexion was as pure as paper, with natural pink lips and high cheekbones that complemented her beauty. Whenever she smiled, her eyes sparkled, and her eyelashes spoke a thousand words. She was like a white lotus that everyone desired, and I was one of those guys who sought her from the very start. She and I were different in many ways. Her family was a large firm, while mine was just starting out, perhaps just average. She was a social butterfly with many friends, and I was an introvert who disliked people because of their fake personalities, as they were all concerned about social status. However, she was different from them. She had a genuine smile and her interactions with people were pure. She was down-to-earth, but as the heiress of the Ramey family, people had misconceptions about her. They believed she had a harsh and distant demeanor, but I knew otherwise from the moment I saw h

    Summer’s Point of View“Maxine,” Steven called out in a throaty voice. “Have you forgotten the rule I imposed on this city?”Maxine appeared frightened by what Steven had said, which reminded me of Missus Turner’s warning, not to mention Matteo’s name. Her face turned pale, indicating her fear. She took a step back and glared at me with anger, although she seemed to be trying to restrain herself.“Neither of you should remain in this building any longer. You both need to leave now!”“But Steven—”“Amby, don’t force me to call the authorities and have them remove you. I explicitly asked you to avoid causing chaos, yet you continue to test my patience.” With a tight jaw and a piercing stare, he expressed his resentment towards them. “Leave!”As Steven’s voice reverberated through the cavernous walls, Amby and Maxine instinctively shrank back, their bodies tensing with unease. His words seemed to shake the very foundation of the room, causing them to hastily retreat, their footsteps echo

    Summer’s Point of ViewAs Steven’s image materialized before me, a sudden chill swept over me, causing my stomach to knot up. The sight before me was gruesome - blood was splattered all over the floor and someone lay motionless in the midst of it all. Without a moment’s hesitation, Stefani dashed towards the person and I followed suit, trying my best to keep my balance as I ran.“S-Steven!” I cried out. “C-call an ambulance!”I held him on my lap while scanning the area for Brandon, who was frantically speaking on his phone. Despite his anxious stare at Stefani and me, my attention was solely focused on Stefani, who was watching the situation.My hands trembled, and my thoughts were jumbled. I couldn’t decide who to prioritize first between Stefani and Steven. In the midst of my confusion, Celine unexpectedly appeared.“Summer!” She came running towards us and picked up Stefani in her arms. “Aunty’s here. Don’t cry,” she said soothingly.Tears blurred my vision as I gazed at her, my f

He is expected to announce his successor and reveal who will assume his power.][Steven Carter, the young and successful businessman, is currently in a coma after being shot by his childhood friend, who was suspected to be his mistress.]After hearing that, I switched off the TV and headed to the bathroom. I submerged myself in the bathtub until my mind calmed down, all the while gazing at my clean hands. These very hands were the ones that had tried to stop the bleeding in Steven’s chest. Yet, despite their cleanliness, an overwhelming sense of terror persisted, as if the blood still lingered.In a state of daze, my room unexpectedly opened without a knock. As I stared at the person who had entered, tears welled up in my eyes and I found myself unable to hold back the sobs that escaped me. The hands I was fixated on became blurred by the stream of tears.“M

    Summer’s Point of View“Prosecution, you may call your first witness,” the judge declared.“Thank you, your Honor. I call to the stand Calvin Klein,” my attorney responded.“Will the witness please stand to be sworn in by the bailiff?” the judge announced.“To the witness, Calvin Klein, please raise your right hand. Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” the bailiff said.“I do.”Calvin’s deliberate footsteps echoed through the room as he made his way to the front, causing my breath to hitch in my throat. The expressions on Mr. Klein and Amby’s faces revealed their surprise, and I could see Calvin’s father whispering to the lawyer. Their eyes shifted towards me, but I casually shrugged it off, my gaze fixed ahead. Uncertainty lingered, unsure if this man would also betray what he had witnessed.As his gaze fixed upon me, his voice resonated through the room. “Mister Carter is my father’s esteemed business partner,” he began, the sound of his words

    Summer’s Point of ViewFollowing the trial, I wasted no time in heading over to Celine’s place to share the news and pick up Stefani. They were overjoyed to hear it, as they had faith in my abilities but doubted the people of New York City. Harvey offered to lend a hand, but I didn’t want to involve him any further in my troubles. I was simply grateful to have them by my side throughout the trial.Having already visited the hospital, we were surprised to find Calvin there. It amazed me, as I had thought he wouldn’t want to see me again after what had happened. However, as he noticed me approaching, he closed the distance between us.“Once again, I sincerely apologize for what happened, Mrs. Carter. I am here to personally extend my apologies on behalf of my father, as supporting Amby feels like a betrayal towards Mr. Carter as well,” he said and bowed his head.I smiled and shook my head. “No, I should be the one thanking you for what you did. Thanks to your testimony, Amby is finally

The twins, Elara and Ethan, were playing with their new toys, their excitement bubbling over as they showed their grandparents everything Santa had brought.

It felt like just yesterday she was cradling two tiny newborns in her arms, overwhelmed with love and exhaustion. Now, they were running around the house, full of energy and life, growing faster than she ever thought possible.The house buzzed with activity as Stefani got ready.

    Stefani’s heart fluttered with excitement as she paced the living room, her phone clutched tightly in her hand. She glanced at the clock for the hundredth time, mentally calculating the minutes left before Jacob was supposed to arrive. The house had been transformed into a celebration space, a labor of love that had taken weeks of planning and countless late nights spent coordinating with friends and family. The air was thick with anticipation, and the only thing left to do was wait for the guest of honor to walk through the door.Jacob had reached a major milestone in his career—winning a prestigious award for excellence in business management, something that had been his goal for years. It was a recognition of his hard work, long hours, and dedication, but more than that, it was a symbol of how far he had come.

    The sun was just starting to rise, casting a golden glow over the city, but Stefani had been up for hours. Her heart raced with a mixture of excitement and nerves as she stood in front of the mirror, brushing her hair and making final adjustments to her outfit. Today was the day. After years of dreaming, planning, and putting it off for her family, she was about to open her very own bakery.Stefani had always loved baking. It was more than a hobby for her; it was a passion, a way to express her creativity and share joy with others. From the time she was little, she would spend hours in the kitchen, covered in flour and experimenting with different flavors. But as life moved forward—marriage, children, and all the responsibilities that came with them—her dream of opening her own bakery had taken a back seat.Until now.Jacob had been her biggest supporter, urging her to follow her heart and make this dream a reality.

    The gentle breeze rolled off the sea, carrying with it the salty freshness of the ocean. The sun hung low on the horizon, casting a golden glow over the pristine sands of the island they had just arrived on. It felt surreal to Stefani—the beauty of the place, the laughter of her children echoing in the air as Ethan and Elara chased each other down the shore. This island was nothing like anywhere they had been before, and for the first time in a long while, Stefani felt the worries of everyday life slip away.Jacob stood beside her, his eyes locked on the twins with a soft smile tugging at his lips. “It’s beautiful here, isn’t it?” he asked, his voice warm.Stefani nodded, her fingers lacing through his as she leaned into him. “It’s perfect,” she whispered. “I can’t believe we’re actually here. No work, no stress—just us.”He glanced down at her, something unreadable in his expression. “That’s exactly what I wanted, Stef. Just us. We’ve been through a lot, and I thought we could use so

    It was a Wednesday afternoon when Stefani sat by the window, staring out at the garden while Elara and Ethan played outside. Their laughter echoed through the yard, but Stefani couldn’t find it in herself to join in. Her mind was miles away, consumed by the growing distance between her and Jacob.Days had turned into weeks since their last conversation about his workaholic tendencies, and though Jacob had apologized and promised to do better, nothing had changed. He was still coming home late, still missing family dinners, and still buried in projects that seemed more important than their family.The door opened, and Jacob walked in, looking as exhausted as ever. His tie hung loosely around his neck, and his shirt was wrinkled from a long day at the office. He glanced at Stefani, his eyes filled with that same apologetic look she had grown used to."Hey," he greeted her, dropping his briefcase by the door. "Sorry I'm late again. The meeting ran longer than expected."Stefani sighed, h

    Stefani sat at the dinner table, her eyes tracing the empty seat across from her. The warm glow from the chandelier above felt dim compared to the brightness that used to fill their family meals. It wasn’t the first night Jacob had missed dinner, but it felt like the hundredth. His absence weighed heavily on her heart, an unspoken distance growing between them.Elara and Ethan, now five, chatted animatedly as they poked at their food, their little voices filling the silence Jacob had left behind. Stefani tried to focus on their laughter, their joy, but her mind kept drifting back to the clock on the wall, ticking louder and louder with every passing second. Each tick felt like a reminder that Jacob was missing yet another evening with his family.“Mommy, when is Daddy coming home?” Ethan’s soft voice cut through her thoughts. His big brown eyes were filled with innocent hope, the kind that still believed his father would walk through the door at any moment.Stefani’s heart clenched. S

    Stefani sat by the window in their bedroom, watching the sunset as the soft orange hues danced across the horizon. The house was unusually quiet, save for the distant laughter of their children playing in the living room with their grandparents. She sighed, clutching her phone as her thumb hovered over Jacob’s contact.It had only been a few hours since she last saw him. He had left early in the morning for a meeting, and now the day was fading into night, with no sign of him returning. She knew Jacob loved her deeply, and she had no reason to doubt his loyalty. But still, the whisper of insecurities crawled into her mind ever since Olivia started working in his office.Despite Jacob’s reassurances and the fact that Olivia no longer bothered him, Stefani couldn't help but feel unsettled. She had always been confident in their relationship, but lately, small things seemed to gnaw at her sense of security.
