Revenge Of The Trillionaire Heiress Us Day
Ava’s POVIt was early morning when we all piled into the car, the sun just beginning to break over the horizon. Tristan, with a beaming smile plastered across his face, practically buzzed with excitement. We had planned this day for a while now; a little getaway, just the three of us. After everything that had happened, we needed a break. A time to just breathe, have fun, and remind ourselves that life wasn’t only filled with difficult moments.I glanced over at Andrew, who was quietly scrolling through his phone beside me in the back seat. He caught me watching him and smiled, the kind of smile that made my heart skip, soft and warm, making me feel safe. I had to admit, being with him felt different now. There was an ease between us, a sense of belonging I hadn’t allowed myself to fully feel before.“Where are we going again?” Tristan interrupted my thoughts, his eyes wide with excitement from his seat up front. He loved the front seat, even though I always insisted he should still

THIRD PERSON'S POVDerek sat at his large mahogany desk, piles of documents scattered haphazardly around him. The tension in the room was palpable, and his eyes burned from staring at the endless stream of contracts, financial statements, and meeting minutes that detailed the slow, agonizing collapse of F&J. His once-flourishing company was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, and for the life of him, he couldn’t pinpoint where everything had gone so horribly wrong.It wasn’t as if Derek had ever been careless. He built the company from the ground up, made the right connections, and secured multi-million dollar deals. He knew every client by name, every merger like the back of his hand. Yet, here he was, on the brink of losing it all. His mind buzzed with the weight of his failures, but something else clawed at him, something deeper. It was a feeling he had been suppressing for years, the nagging sense that something wasn’t right at home.Annabel, his wife, had been distant. Ever sinc

Derek’s POVI stayed seated on the edge of the hotel bed for what felt like hours, the silence suffocating me. The anger from discovering Annabel's betrayal simmered inside me, but it was the regret, the overwhelming guilt over Ava, that gnawed at me the most. It’s what I deserve, I treated Ava badly, so it’s my karma.How did I get here? How did I ruin everything for a woman who never cared about me? My mind kept flashing back to Ava. How she smiled when I told her I wanted a family, how her face fell when we years passed by and we had no child. We could have worked through that. We could have adopted or sought other options, but I was too caught up in my selfish desires.I walked out on her because she couldn't bear children. How low could I have sunk? The more I thought about it, the more disgusted I became with myself.I ran my hand through my hair again, gripping the strands at the roots. Maybe I should text her; no, call her. Hear her voice. Apologize. But would she even care? W

Ava’s POVThe hum of the private jet was comforting as I leaned back in my seat, glancing out the window at the blanket of clouds below. Andrew sat across from me, his eyes scanning through some documents. We hadn’t spoken much since takeoff, but that was normal when we were heading to London on business. My mind kept drifting back to Tristan. I knew he was safe, there were more than enough nannies at the house to keep an eye on him. Still, I wasn’t sure if it was the right decision to leave him behind. School could wait, but my instinct to protect him never could."Everything okay?" Andrew asked, looking up from his work.I smiled, nodding slightly. “Yeah, I was just thinking about Tristan. I still don’t know if we’re doing the right thing by keeping him home.”Andrew leaned back, stretching his arms. “He’s healing, Ava. And you made the right call. He’s got a team of caretakers around him. More than most kids ever have.”“I know,” I sighed. “But you know how it is. It feels wrong to

Andrew’s POVAs I strode down the corridor toward Ava’s office, anticipation bubbled in my chest. I had just finished a meeting and I was eager to hear about her meeting, especially because it was her ex husband’s company, it’s never easy for her, but she assured me she could handle it. My mind raced with possibilities, each one more thrilling than the last. I couldn’t shake the feeling that we were on the verge of something big, something that would solidify our partnership both personally and professionally.But as I reached her office door, that excitement turned to dread in an instant.I pushed the door open, and my heart dropped. There was Ava, pinned against the wall, her eyes wide with shock, and standing too close to her was Derek. His hand was on her shoulder, forcing her against the cold surface, his expression twisted with a mix of desperation and arrogance.I barely registered the flood of anger that surged through me. Without a second thought, I stormed into the office, e

Ava’s POVThe city lights of London twinkled like stars as I stepped into the hotel lobby, exhaustion tugging at my limbs after a long day of meetings and negotiations. I was grateful for the chance to catch my breath, if only for a night. Andrew stood beside me, his jaw set in a firm line that hinted at the tension simmering beneath the surface. I wanted to reach out and touch him, to break through the wall of frustration that seemed to have settled between us, but the air was thick with unspoken words.After checking in, we made our way to our room. I fished my phone from my purse and dialed the nanny to check on Tristan. As I waited for her to pick up, I felt a gnawing worry in my stomach. “Hello?” the nanny’s voice came through the line, bright and cheerful.“Hi, it’s Ava. I just wanted to check on Tristan. How’s he doing?” “Oh, he’s just fine! He had a little dinner and was sound asleep within minutes. No fuss at all,” she assured me. Relief washed over me. “Thank you for taki
Revenge Of The Trillionaire Heiress Shared Custody
Ava’s POVThe morning sun filtered through the hotel room curtains, casting a warm glow across the bed. I stirred awake, stretching my limbs as the soft rays nudged me from the depths of sleep. My first instinct was to reach for Andrew, who lay beside me, his face relaxed in slumber. I smiled, feeling grateful for the peaceful morning. Days like this were a rarity, and I wanted to savor every moment.“Andrew,” I whispered, gently shaking him. “It’s time to wake up.”He groaned, turning away from me, his tousled hair creating a messy halo around his head. “Five more minutes,” he mumbled.“Come on! We have to video call Tristan,” I urged, feeling a rush of excitement at the thought of seeing our son’s face. The separation was always tough, but video calls made it a little easier.He finally opened one eye, squinting at the light. “You’re right. Let’s do it.”After a few minutes of getting ready, we settled in front of my laptop. I hit the video call button, my heart fluttering with anti

Ava’s POVAndrew pulled me to the side, the document still in my hands, the title “Shared Custody” burned into my mind. He hadn’t spoken since Derek handed me the papers, but his grip on my arm was firm, his expression unreadable."Ava," he began, his voice lower than usual, as if he was trying to keep his emotions in check. I couldn’t form words with the weight of the document in my hand and the look in Andrew’s eyes.He exhaled sharply, his grip loosening but still holding onto me like he was afraid I’d slip away. "This... Derek... I knew this was going to happen at some point, but I didn’t expect it now. I didn’t expect him to push for this."I blinked, still trying to catch up with what was happening. "You mean... the custody?"He nodded. "Yes, the custody. Ava, I can’t sit back and watch him try to stake a claim over Tristan, not after everything he’s done to you, to us. I’ve stayed quiet for as long as I could, but Derek’s not just going to back down. He’s trying to insert hims

Ava's POV.Mrs. Pierce smiled through her tears, her gaze fixed on Tristan with a tenderness that tugged at something deep inside me.As the evening wore on, we sat around the dining table, the air still heavy with unspoken emotions. After dinner, Mrs. Pierce folded her hands on the table, her expression serious.“There’s something else I need to tell you, Ava,” she began, her voice calm but resolute.I raised an eyebrow, bracing myself for yet another revelation. “What is it now?”She glanced at Andrew and Tristan, then back at me. “I’ve kept my distance for years because I didn’t think I had the right to disrupt your life. But I’ve been following your journey, and I’ve wanted to come back sooner than this.”“Following my journey?” I repeated, narrowing my eyes.“Yes,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “Ava, I wasn’t just trying to rebuild my life after I left you. I…well, I married someone. A man who believed in me and my dreams. Together, we built a life—a very successful one.”I fr

Ava’s POVThe weeks that followed Annabel's arrest were a whirlwind of emotions—relief, anger, and a lingering sense of unease. I couldn’t shake the feeling that she wasn’t entirely gone from our lives, even as the police assured me she would be locked away for a long time.But life had a way of throwing curveballs.One morning, as I sat by the window sipping tea, the nausea that had plagued me for days returned with a vengeance. I barely made it to the bathroom in time. Tristan, ever the observant little boy, knocked on the door.“Mommy, are you okay?” he asked, his voice tinged with worry.“I’m fine, sweetheart,” I replied, forcing a smile when I emerged. “Just a little stomach bug.”But it wasn’t a bug. Deep down, I knew. The signs were unmistakable, and a test later that evening confirmed it.I was pregnant.I stared at the test in my trembling hand, the reality sinking in. Another child. A sibling for Tristan. A symbol of everything I’d fought so hard to protect.As the news settled in,
Revenge Of The Trillionaire Heiress Shattered Loyalty
Annabel’s POVThey all thought they’d won. Ava, Derick, even Andrew—they all got to walk away happy. But what about me? Where was my happy ending? Where was the life I’d envisioned? Derick wasn’t supposed to go back to Ava. He wasn’t supposed to turn his attention to some child. Tristan. That boy had ruined everything.I stared at the grainy photo I’d taken of Tristan at the park last week. His laugh still echoed in my mind, grating against my nerves. Derick doted on him, Ava clung to him, and even Andrew looked at him like he was some precious treasure.It wasn’t fair.If Tristan were gone, maybe things could go back to the way they were supposed to be. Derick would grieve, of course, but I could help him heal. I’d be the one he turned to. The one he leaned on.The plan had been forming in my mind for weeks. It wasn’t impulsive—I wasn’t stupid. I’d spent hours studying their routines, noting every detail. Ava’s work schedule, Derick’s visitation days, and Tristan’s after-school activ

Ava’s POVThe judge’s voice echoed through the courtroom, cutting through the tense silence like a blade.“In the best interest of the child, the court has decided on joint custody. Both parents will share equal responsibility in raising Tristan.”I sat motionless, my fingers gripping the edge of the table. I had prepared myself for this outcome, but hearing the words spoken aloud still sent a chill down my spine. Sharing Tristan with Derick wasn’t what I wanted—but the court had decided, and I had no choice but to accept it.Tristan was my whole world. The idea of someone else, even his biological father, having a say in his life felt like an intrusion. But the judge was right. Tristan deserved both parents in his life. No matter how much I resented the situation, I had to focus on what was best for my son.As the courtroom emptied, Derick approached me. He walked hesitantly, as if unsure of how close he should get. I glanced at Diane, who nodded and took Tristan by the hand, guiding
Revenge Of The Trillionaire Heiress A Father's Truth
Derick’s POVThe small park bench felt impossibly narrow as I sat there, nervously gripping the edge. Tristan was perched beside me, his little legs swinging back and forth, not quite reaching the ground. His curious gaze was fixed on me, a mix of innocence and wisdom far beyond his five years.I took a deep breath, unsure how to begin. The truth was, I had no idea how to talk to a child—especially one who looked so much like me, yet felt like a stranger.“Do you like the swings?” I asked, trying to break the ice.He shrugged, clutching the juice box I’d handed him earlier. “They’re okay.”Silence fell between us again, heavy and awkward. Finally, Tristan spoke, his voice quiet but firm. “Why weren’t you there when I was born?”The question hit me like a punch to the gut. I looked at him, my throat tightening. How could I explain something I didn’t even fully understand myself?“I didn’t know about you,” I admitted. “Your mom didn’t tell me until…until she needed help.”His small brow

Annabel's POVThe glow of the city lights spilled through the floor-to-ceiling windows of my apartment, casting shadows across the sleek marble floor. I sank into the plush sofa, glass of wine in hand, as my phone buzzed with yet another update.Tristan seemed fine today. No incidents.Ava’s watcher confronted someone near the school, but they got away.Andrew stopped by Diane’s office this afternoon. He’s definitely keeping her in the loop.I smirked, setting the wine down and scrolling through the messages. It was almost laughable how predictable they all were—Ava, so desperate to appear the perfect mother; Andrew, playing knight in shining armor. And Derick, as always, trying to manage things while keeping me in the dark.Poor, naive Derick. Did he really think I didn’t know everything already? The updates he shared during our hushed conversations were a watered-down version of the truth—carefully curated to make him look like the doting father fighting for his son. But I had my ow

Ava's POV“Did you report it to the school?”“Not yet,” he admitted. “I wasn’t sure if it was anything serious or just a parent lingering, but now…”“Report it,” I said firmly. “And keep an eye out. I want to know if you see him again.”After hanging up, I texted Diane, filling her in on the new development.We need to discuss this tomorrow. I’m doubling Tristan’s security and contacting the school.Her reply came almost immediately. Agreed. This will only work in our favor if we act quickly.I stared at the phone for a moment, my chest tightening with frustration. Diane was right—this could show the court how vigilant I was and how far I’d go to protect Tristan. But deep down, I hated that I even had to do this. I hated that someone was using my son as a pawn.I called the number again my hand clenching the phone tighter. “Did you get anything? A description? A photo?”The watcher hesitated. “Not really. He wore a baseball cap, pulled low, and kept his head down. It was deliberate—li

Ava's POV.The courtroom loomed over me as I stepped out of the car with Diane at my side. Her calm demeanor was reassuring, but my nerves refused to settle. Tristan’s laughter echoed in my mind, a reminder of why I was doing this.“Ready?” Diane asked, her sharp eyes scanning my face.I nodded, clutching the folder of evidence she’d helped me prepare. “As ready as I’ll ever be.”The court had given us a month to prepare for this, and every single day had been a battle. Between balancing Tristan’s needs, meetings with Diane, and keeping myself together, I felt stretched thin. Andrew and Kim had been my rocks during this time. Andrew’s unwavering support and Kim’s relentless encouragement kept me going when I wanted to break.“You’re a good mother, Ava,” Andrew had said the night before, his voice steady. “The court will see that. No one could love Tristan the way you do.”Kim had chimed in during one of our late-night calls, her voice fierce. “You’ve got this. You’re smart, you’re str
