Marietta thought she had it all figured out, not until everything came crashing down. Accused of doing something she didn't do, and betrayed by those she trusted, she's left to pick up her pieces. But when she finds out she’s pregnant, things get a lot more complicated. Now, she’s fighting to figure out her future—alone, hurt, and ready to take back control. Can she start over, or will her past keep dragging her down?

Especially with the sterling, it wasn’t going to happen.“Until I put you all under my feet!” I clenched my fist in anger, staring at the screen vividly. Waiting patiently for the assassin whom I had paid to kill both of them.Just then, a knock landed on the door. Standing at the entrance was Donovan.“Is he in already?” I questioned. Since it was Jackson who was getting married today, I was sure the security would be tight, and that is why I had sent my assassin to go a day before the wedding.“Yes, boss.”“Good.” And as we sat down to watch what was about to happen, a smile trailed off my lips.“Do you, Katty, accept this man as your husband? To love and to cherish? In sickness or in health? Till death do you part?” The priest questioned, and I smiled mockingly. Knowing fully well that this was going to

Marietta’s POVI scoffed in disbelief because this was starting to look like an emotional blackmail, especially with the reporters being around.“What are you doing?” I gasped in shock.Should love be a do-or-die thing? Why must he go to the extent of pulling this kind of string?I was running from Aiden, my one-night stand and now I’m in front of my delusional ex-husband who has suddenly gone mad after killing our daughter because of his reckless attitude.“Hae you gone mad?!”“Yes,” he said, pulling the trigger, and raising a finger to stop his guards from interfering.“I’ve gone made because of you!” He lashed out. “And I need us to talk about this.” He heaved a sigh with the gun still placed on his head.“Please!” He shouted. “Just you and me.”“I have nothing to say to you, Michael.” I yanked his hand off me. “Clara let’s go,”“If you step a foot into this car, I’m going to pull this trigger.” He threatened.Taking off my glasses, I stared at him, my eyes devoid of emotions. “I’
Marietta’s POV I had woken up muttering my daughter's name. I squeezed the bed with my eyes still shut. “Valerie!” I lashed before opening my eyes. My whole body trembled at the sight of the Greek god lying beside me. How can a man who sleeps with women for money be this flawless?His eyes, his cute little nose–Fuck! I don't want to do this. We are done. And I don't want to see him again. It's time to get back at those who haunted me and my daughter. Love? It's already been deleted from my dictionary. Looking behind me, I noticed the wall clock was just ticking after six in the morning. I can't afford to be seen like this. I'm a public figure and I really need to keep my decency. Just then, it dawned on me that my daughter was dead. The decency thing has ended. So I don't give two fucks about what anyone says. They will always talk. And they can go fuck themselves. Everyone had pretended not to know a thing. Just because Michael paid them off. I'm human too. Being an ac

Marietta's POV“Do some artificial respiration. She’s still breathing,” Bella yelled.I wasted no time in adhering to what she had suggested.“Did you say anything to her? I think I asked Clara to always be with her every time?” I said, breathing some air into her.I cannot lose her too. I’ve already lost a daughter.“C’mon, Marietta,” “You cannot die now, please!” I shouted.I was about to order them to get a nurse, when Etta finally breathed out.I felt a bit weak, as my legs cringed beneath me. For a second I thought I’d lost her.My heart raced faster, knowing the kind of history we both had in the past.If this happens, then the world will never look at me the same again. It’s enough for them to think we killed our daughter. I cannot have the reporters put us out there again.Laying her on the bed, and adjusting the air conditoner, I turned towards Bella.“What happened?”“She said she wanted to come pick something up at your side,” Bella rolled her eyes.Even though I’ve been

Marietta’s POVThe world around me seemed to slow as my sister, Katty, tumbled down the golden staircase.A scream tore from my throat.I lunged forward, reaching for her, but it was too late.“Katty! Somebody help! Anybody!” My voice was raw with panic.I stumbled down after her, my heart pounding in terror as she landed with a sickening thud.Gasps echoed around the grand hall, drawing the attention of the elegantly dressed guests. A murmur of disbelief rippled through the crowd, turning into hushed whispers, then sharp accusations.“She pushed her!”“After stealing her fiancé, now she wants her dead?”“What kind of monster does that to her own sister?”Tears blurred my vision. I barely registered the insults as I dropped to my knees beside Katty.She clutched her stomach, wincing in pain. “Oww… my baby… please… save my baby…” Her trembling hands shoved mine away.Then, her voice sharpened, loud enough for the entire room to hear. “Don’t touch me! You—murderer!”The weight of her acc...
