Raven.EHello everyone, To avoid confusion, I'll be using Aurora's point of view instead of Astrid's from this point on. Both names refer to the same character.

The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 13| Is Something Wrong, Mr. Lawson?
Aurora Sometimes I asked myself why I couldn’t walk away when I saw someone being mistreated. Was it pity, or just basic human conscience? No, I knew it ran deeper than that. The anger that flared up inside me wasn’t simple empathy—it was something rooted in my own scars, my own memories of helplessness that I couldn't remember. "What do you think you're doing?." I took a step forward, looking each of them in the eye with a calm, cold expression. "Were you about to raise your hand on him and get away with it?” The woman’s eyes widened as she turned to look at me, clearly startled. For a moment, silence fell over the area, the tension thick in the air as she processed the fact that someone had actually stopped her. “Who the hell are you?” she spat, yanking her hand back and straightening her posture, trying to regain her composure. “How dare you touch me? Do you know who I—” “Oh, save it,” I replied calmly, cutting her off. “Is that line supposed to scare me? Because I don’

Aurora “Is something wrong, Mr. Lawson?” I asked, my tone deliberately casual, though I could see the fear taking root in his eyes. “I thought I was going to get banned.” I could practically hear the rapid beating of his heart as he stared at me, wishing he could dig a hole and crawl inside it. But I looked at him with a cold, indifferent expression. Oh, he’d wish that hole was more than six feet under. “What? Cat got your tongue? I thought you could destroy my life with just a single phone call?” I grinned, eyes turning colder. “Or, maybe I should do the honors of destroying yours.” He swallowed hard, his hands suddenly trembling. “I-I… I didn’t realize…” His voice was barely a whisper now, stripped of its previous arrogance. “I thought you were… I mean, I didn’t expect…” He trailed off, unable to complete his sentence. Everyone was fully invested in the scene now, forgetting they had flights to catch. Even the men trailing behind him looked surprised—they must have never seen

Damien I leaned my back against the wall, tilting my head indifferently as I watched the scene unfold. My gaze darted between the two girls who looked utterly humiliated, and the man who was pale, shaken, his fury barely contained. And then, there was her—walking away with a calm, unbothered grace that was almost… mesmerizing. She moved through the crowd with her head held high, completely unaffected by the commotion she’d left everyone in. A faint smile tugged at the corner of my mouth, an unfamiliar sense of interest flickering to life as I watched her go. Interesting. When my private jet malfunctioned, I had to book an entire plane to return back to the USA. I had no idea I would be entertained. I allowed myself a moment to study her as she walked away, her back straight, movements calm and nonchalant. Who would have thought my rival's younger sister would be this interesting. "Mr. Damien," a voice interrupted my thoughts. My assistant, Jason, stood beside me, his ey

The room seemed to grow colder, the weight of his words settling like a stone in my chest. I didn’t move, didn’t react, I was too stunned to speak. The whole world seemed to blur around me. What? I must have heard wrong. He's dying? Dying? What kind of stupid statement was that? Was this another attempt of his to set me up with another woman? If this was a joke, I swear to God, no one would be laughing after this. “Say that again.” I growled, my tone sharper than I intended. “I’m not in the mood for jokes.” “Damien,” he began, taking a deep breath, his gaze shifting to the family portrait on the wall—the one taken years ago, before the accident that changed our lives. When he looked back at me, his eyes were tired, almost haunted. “I'm not joking. I'm sick. I don't have much time left. And I can't leave this world knowing you have nobody by your side. This is my last wish, and I hope you can grant me before my death.” I frowned, something unsettling stirring at the back of my

Aurora “Lord” I muttered, looking down at my plate, already piled high with food, yet my mother’s hand appeared once again, a new dish in tow. “Here, eat more.” She insisted, her voice cheerful, as she placed another serving of casserole on my plate. “Mom,” I said, laughing softly. “I already have enough to feed a small army. I'm good.” She waved her hand dismissively, moving on to the boys, who were already looking wide-eyed at their plates. “Nonsense! The boys are growing. They need more strength!” She ladled another spoonful of mashed potatoes onto each of their plates. “If you told me you were coming earlier than expected, I would have prepared everything for you in advance. I told the chefs to prepare what little they had.” Are you kidding me? This was little? Back in London, the boys and I only ate a quarter of what was on the table. “Grandma,” Finn mumbled, casting me a helpless look. “I don’t think I can eat all of this.” “Sweetheart!” she replied, ruffling his

Aurora I hopped out of my car with an apple wedged between my teeth, practically sprinting towards the front doors of the hospital. My mother had been relentless this morning, shoving breakfast plates at me with that classic guilt-inducing “you need to eat more” look. I had to tell her to wake the boys up and feed them instead. I barely managed to escape after grabbing the apple, feeling her gaze burning into my back as I fled. Sorry boys. I had to use you both in order to escape. But, it was worth it. The massive hospital loomed before me, all sleek glass and steel, and I tried to make myself look halfway composed as I approached. I was supposed to start work last week—the day after I arrived. But my mother was so adamant about me resting with the boys that I had to stay home for a few more days, which I really didn't like. “Hello, do you know where my office is?” Still chewing on the apple, I nodded a quick greeting to the receptionist. She looked at me excitedly, as if she

Dark, piercing eyes looked down at me, framed by a sharp jawline. He was tall, easily a head taller than me. His face was… well, there was no other way to say it—beautiful. Strong brows, high cheekbones. He looked as though he had been carved by God. And then there was his scent. A mix of something crisp and dark, like cedarwood with a hint of spice—warm, grounding. It was intoxicating, like nothing I’d ever smelled before, and it left me feeling oddly unsteady. I swallowed, trying to gather my thoughts, but my brain seemed to have short-circuited. Great. Of all the people I could collide with, I had to pick the Greek god lookalike. He looked down at where my hand had brushed against his arm. Shock flickered across his face, like he’d just experienced something completely foreign. His grip on my waist, which had been steadying me tightened. Why is he looking at me like that? I quickly pulled back, feeling a blush rise to my cheeks. “Oh, I’m so sorry! I didn’t see you,” I sai

Damien “Better find a wife, Damien. I need a daughter-in-law within the month. I don’t care how you do it. I want a grandchild to brag about to my friends.” My grandfather’s words echoed relentlessly in my mind, even as I tried to push them away. I sighed, running a hand through my hair. What a difficult old man. He was acting as if a wife and child could be procured with a snap of my fingers. My plan had been straightforward: strike a deal with Ezra so his sister would be the one to operate on my grandfather. I trusted few people, and even fewer doctors, but she had a reputation that rivaled anyone in the industry. The best of the best. It was supposed to be a negotiation. I would ensure everything went smoothly, control every aspect. But as it turned out, she had already volunteered to handle the surgery before I could even approach Ezra. I leaned back against the wall of the elevator, my hands resting casually in my pockets, barely listening to Jason as he rattled off deta

The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 77|| The big fight
Serena “I see you’re out shopping,” Clarissa said, her left hand on her hip and a smirk tugging at her lips. “My father got the invitation to your husband’s event. I’ll be attending with my family, so it only makes sense that you’re buying new clothes so you wouldn’t want to be overshadowed at your own party.”Her other hand was holding a designer bag, and she sneered at me with a look that could rot milk. Her red hair was pulled into a ponytail so tight, I wouldn’t be surprised if it had fried a few of her brain cells.By now, people had started glancing our way, sensing the drama. Olivia, who didn’t know how to hold down her anger, poked her head out from behind me, her eyes glaring right at Clarissa.I tilted my head to the side and bit my lip, trying hard to fight the urge to insult her entire generation. Because that would suit the careful image I’d crafted for years. “Clarissa,” I said with a sweet smile, “if you were worried about being overshadowed, I’d be more than happy to
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 76|| The Winner’s Life
SerenaEvery morning, I wake up and look in the mirror grinning like I own the world. And why wouldn’t I? Winners smile. That’s what we do.When you want something badly enough, you don’t just wait around hoping it comes to you. You take it. You claw, bleed, and fuck your sister’s husband if you have to. Because this world isn’t fair. It’s a game. And there are only two kinds of people, winners… and losers.Astrid—my dear, dead sister—was the latter. A loser through and through.“Young madam, Miss Olivia is waiting for you downstairs,” the maid called gently from behind the door.I smiled, still facing the mirror, leaning in to perfect my lipstick. A soft smack of my lips, and I rose to my feet, admiring the reflection that stared back at me.Even after two kids, my body was still flawless. Tight, toned, glowing. Every inch of me radiated power, beauty, and control.Because I had it all.My parents’ love. My darling Nathaniel.And Astrid’s life.I stepped down the staircase, each clic
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 75|| The nagging dread
DamienWhat if Astrid, the woman who shattered my carefully built defenses for a single night, had never truly disappeared?I can’t help but scoff, what a stupid thought but the more I thought about it the more I found myself stumped.My men had done their research. Every report, every scrap of evidence pointed to the fact that she had burned to ashes in that accident. There wasn’t even a body left to bury. And yet, something didn’t sit right.For one, the case had been open and shut. A freak accident. They said a truck had collided with her car while she was distracted. The driver barely survived. Three days after being admitted to the hospital, he vanished. No one batted an eye. Who cared where a middle-aged man who could barely walk disappeared to? I sent Jason to find his family, but they had vanished too. Strange. I would have dug deeper if I cared.But I didn’t.I wasn’t grieving. I wasn’t haunted by loss. I was just… unsettled.Astrid had no right to do what she did to come int
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 74|| A case of delusion
Damien Spending my evening in a supermarket shopping for gifts and flowers wasn’t exactly how I’d pictured my life thirty years down the line. If someone had told me back then that I’d willingly buy a woman flowers, I’d have sent them straight to jail. Yet, there I was, arms crossed, eyes narrowed at a bouquet of roses. Trying my best to ignore Jason, who had apparently forgotten how to behave. He wasn’t shocked, just in awe, already composing the tales he’d spin for Sofia when we got home. But I was stumped. Aurora was a mystery, one I wanted to unravel piece by piece. Finding a flower she’d actually like was turning out to be more of a challenge than I’d expected. And after that heart-to-heart with my grandfather, it was becoming harder to deny that whatever I felt for her was real. Roses or Poises. Elegant or sweet. Doctor Aurora was as elegant as a rose—poised, breathtaking, impossible to ignore. But she had thrones, ones that I wasn’t sure she even knew. But I was so f
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 73| The reunion
Aurora The cool, sterile air of the hospital brushed against my skin as I walked out of Nathaniel’s office. My mind was spinning. An ex-wife? That revelation sat heavy in my chest, creating more questions than answers. Why had no one ever mentioned it before? Why had he mentioned it to me? And why was my heart racing every time I thought about it? I shook my head, trying to clear the confusion. My steps echoed faintly in the hallway as I moved forward, but I couldn’t focus on where I was going. It felt like I was walking in circles. The feeling of always getting close to your goal and then being back at the beginning was frustrating. Whenever I was near the truth, something or someone always had to stop me from finding out. It was starting to annoy me. I could just stop all this trouble and ask my mother or my brothers, but I doubt they would be much help. They were hiding my past for a reason, and they wouldn't just tell me. Nathaniel asked me out for dinner, and the way he

Aurora “Doctor Aurora?” Nathaniel stared at me in surprise, his eyes carefully studying my face as if he was trying to see if I was really the one sitting in front of him. I met his gaze with no particular emotion. I planned for this. I played out so many different versions of how this meeting would go. How I would act. What I would say. What I would ask. But now? Now I was just… staring at this man. This man who felt familiar and yet a complete stranger all at once. Nathaniel’s eyes darted to my body, as if trying to make sure I was okay. Then, much to my surprise, he sighed heavily, leaning forward and placing his head in his hands. “I’m sorry, Doctor Aurora,” I blinked, caught off guard by the sudden apology. “Sorry? Why are you apologizing?” He looked up at me, his expression open and honest. “It’s my fault. You came to my hospital, and you almost got hurt. You were dragged into something dangerous.” I tilted my head slightly. Was he serious? Did he actually mean it
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 71| Was this all an act?
Aurora I stared at him in disbelief. What just happened? Did he just catch the knife with his bare hands? Did he just save me from getting killed? At the moment when the knife was about to make contact with my body, I thought about a lot of things. A lot of people that meant so much to me—people I couldn't leave behind. But unexpectedly, he saved me. Nathaniel saved me from being killed. Blood dripped from his palm onto the floor, but he didn’t even flinch. Why? Why would Nathaniel do that? "Who the hell are you?" The man shouted, bringing me back to the present. Nathaniel straightened, his bloody hand still clutching the knife, and pushed me behind him. He stood tall, his presence commanding the room as he looked the man directly in the eyes. "I am Doctor Nathaniel. I don’t believe we’ve met, but I was the surgeon who performed your daughter’s operation." The man’s eyes widened, his face twisting with rage. "You bastard! You're the person that killed my Juliet." he shouted, y
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 70| I will kill her!
Aurora I stared up at the massive hospital in front of me, The building was both inviting and intimidating. It was slightly larger than my brother’s hospital, which was not surprising, given its history. This place had been around for decades, building its reputation as not just a place of healing but also one of hope. Known for its work with patients who couldn’t afford treatment, it stood out in a world where healthcare was often ruled by greed. But, more than anything, this hospital was known for him. Dr. Nathaniel Davis. The surgeon everyone adored. The media’s golden boy. The man who seemed to embody perfection every time he appeared on TV or in interviews, his kind smile and composed personality made people swoon. A family man, a husband material and the perfect father. Trust me, I could say more, after all I had done my research. I ran a hand through my blonde hair, letting out a quiet sigh. We agreed to meet after that day and I was the one who set the time and th

X The photos spread out before me were like pieces of a puzzle I’d been working on for years. I picked up the one on top, running my thumb over her face. A stepping into the hospital, carrying herself with grace. Such a confident woman. But then, there was the other one. Her on the road, clutching her chest in panic. Vulnerable. Weak. A side of her the world rarely saw. I chuckled, the sound low and dark as it echoed in the empty room. Spinning lazily in my chair, I plucked another photo from the desk. This one was different—her holding her kids. That smile of hers, soft and full of love. How quaint. How perfectly motherly. But then there were the others. Damien, standing beside her. I scoffed, tossing that photo back onto the desk. Then there was Alexander, all charm and smiles, looking at her like she was the center of the goddamn universe. That one? I crumpled it, tossing it without a second thought. “Fools,” I muttered, shaking my head. “They don’t deserve her.” I leaned
