The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 1| Room 108
AstridRoom 108.My pulse quickened and my stomach twisted into knots as I stared at the big, bold number on the door.I clutched the room card, and a crumpled picture in my hand, the one that had been slipped under my car windshield at work. On the back of the picture was an address and a room number, and it looked like the photo had been taken from a distance. I would have ignored it and called it a stupid prank if the man in the picture wasn’t someone I recognized—my husband. In the picture, he was walking into a hotel with a woman, I tried to get a look on her face, but it was blurred.Normally, the first thing I did after seeing this was to call Nathaniel, but my calls went straight to voicemail. Switched off. Without thinking, I drove to the hotel.Every instinct told me to turn around, to leave, to have faith in my husband, but these past few months, Nathaniel had grown more distant. He spent so many late nights outside, that I only saw him at the hospital. What if it was not a

Astrid "I want a divorce."For a split second, I wasn't sure if I'd actually said those words, or if it was my head playing tricks on me.My heart hammered in my chest, the beats so loud I was sure he could hear them too. A part of me wanted to take it back. To swallow the words and pretend I hadn't said them. But another part of me didn't want to. I was tired and exhausted. It was like all the years of chasing after him were weighing heavily on my back, stopping me from moving forward.I kept hoping he would wake up one day and realize I was worth fighting for. I wanted him to see me as someone he couldn't live without. So I convinced myself I had to be the perfect wife. Maybe if I were better at everything, he would grow to love me.But God, was I stupid.Why was I trying to save a marriage that was meant to fail from the beginning? Why was I trying to act like everything was fine, when it clearly wasn't.Nathaniel stared at me, blue eyes flickering with disbelief, as if the idea t

AstridA sharp sting erupted across my check as soon as the words left my lips. I stood there, stunned. My skin was stinging from the impact, but the pain was nothing like the emptiness in my chest.The two men I wanted love from the most had slapped me twice today, and the reason was my sister.My gaze flickered to my mother, but she looked away, her lips pressed into a thin line, pretending she hadn't seen anything.She was always indifferent when it came to me, her only focus was her second daughter. She would always make a fuss when something little happened to Serena, but she didn't even blink an eye when father raised his hand on me.I blinked, my vision blurred. The sudden ache in my chest was too hard to ignore. Why was it always Serena? I wasn't even asking for all their love. I just wanted them to treat me like I was their daughter, not some random child they picked from the street.Was that too much to ask?"Don't you dare talk to your sister that way!" My father growled. "

DamienONE HOUR EARLIER My jaw clenched as I stared at the shattered glass on the floor. The heat of my anger burned beneath my skin, but I kept it tightly under control. I had no interest in losing my temper. That wasn’t my style.I leaned against the couch, legs crossed, as I tried to control my breathing. The entire room was tense, as nobody dared to talk. They knew better than to speak a word without my permission."You must have a death wish." I spoke, my voice hoarse and raspy despite trying to control my anger. "Should I send you to your maker if you're that eager to meet him?"The waitress kneeling flinched, her face pale with fear as she instinctively moved back. But there was nowhere to run. She would be foolish to even think of running after what she did.I tilted my head, watching her squirm. "Or maybe I should just make sure you never use those hands again?" "M-mr Russo, please forgive me. I must have been out of my mind for a minute. I..... I am so sorry." She sobbed l

Astrid I groaned in pain at the relentless pounding in my head. It felt like someone was happily driving nails into the inside of my skull. Sunlight tickled my face, stabbing my eyes with its brightness. I used my palm to shield the light coming from the window."Two more minutes." I muttered, facing the other side of the bed, but I froze when my head slightly bumped into something hard....and warm.What a damn minute.My eyes shot open, and I found myself face to face with someone's chest. A naked man's chest. Fucking Christ. I jerked instinctively, but the pain that shot into my body made me freeze. Shit, it's like I'd been hit by a bulldozer.My blood ran cold, and my pulse quickened at that somewhat familiar discomfort between my legs. What was I saying? Even Nathaniel had never made me feel this way. I looked down to find myself naked.I turned my head slowly, forcing myself to look at the man responsible. My breath hitched at his attractive face. His body was still, chest raisi

Astrid The room was so quiet, I could hear my heartbeat, rapid and unsteady. If it weren’t for his firm hand holding me in place, my legs would have given way, and I would have collapsed on the cold marble floor. Sweat trickled down my back and panic gripped my chest. It felt like I was trying to breathe through a straw. I was sold to my husband? No, that can’t be true. Nathaniel couldn’t have bought me as if I was a piece of livestock. Even if I was treated like a servant by everyone, even if I wasn’t my parents’ favorite. I refused to believe they would stoop so low as to sell me like a commodity. “Y-you are lying.” I muttered, shaking my head in denial. My throat was tight, the words felt like stones rolling off my tongue. “They wouldn’t do that! My parents wouldn’t sell me. I....I’m still their daughter. No parents would sell their child.” Nathaniel didn’t flinch. He looked at me, cold and amused. It was like he was watching a little kid throw a tantrum. “Answer me! Thi

Nathaniel I stood there, frozen, staring at Astrid as if I didn’t recognize the woman in front of me. The words she had just thrown at me echoed in my mind, each one sharper, more vicious than the last. She’d never spoken to me like this before. Never. Astrid had always been quiet, the perfect, dutiful wife. She would always control her tongue no matter how terrible my family and I treated her. But now......now she was staring at me with so much disgust and hatred in her eyes, as if she was looking at an insect. A scowl darkened my face, fists clenching at my sides as I fought to keep my anger under control. How dare she? Who does she think she is? She is just a clingy and ugly wife that had forgotten her place. I could divorce her myself, but grandfather would not approve. Yes, my grandfather. He was the reason I could never divorce this woman. There was no other reason. Nothing else. If I had the choice, I would have married Serena, a sexy model who matched my ideal type instea
Last Updated : 2024-11-02The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 8|That wasn’t my name
Astrid It had been three days since I walked out of that house, three days since I’d left behind the hollow remnants of a life I’d once believed in. Did I regret it? Not even a little. But was I still hurting? Yes, in ways I couldn’t even put into words. I didn’t know how many times I’d woken up each night, only to cry myself back to sleep. How many times I’d told myself to keep living, despite the feeling of despair tugging at my heart every morning. I pushed my glasses up the bridge of my nose for the seventh time today—a nervous habit I couldn’t seem to control. My eyes skimmed over the small pile of belongings on my desk and the walls. A few medical journals, my diplomas, old charts and scribbled notes, letters, and gifts from my patients. Everything felt strangely distant, like I was looking at someone else’s things. I picked up a box and started stuffing my things inside. This is it, Astrid. Time to move on. This place had drained me both physically and emotionally. It w

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
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 72| I'm interested in you
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

Damien I stepped into my grandfather’s room, the faint aroma of freshly brewed tea filling the air. He sat beside the window, gazing out at the hospital grounds below. Patients and their families walked back and forth, some chatting, others lost in their thoughts. From this view, you could see it all—life continuing in its chaotic rhythm. "Don't you think that was too much?" my grandfather said without turning around. “You're too hard on the poor girl. She was waiting for you all this time.” I waved my hand dismissively, walking over to the chair next to him. “She waited for nothing,” I said indifferently, settling into the seat. He glanced at me briefly before setting his cup of tea down on the small table beside him. Without a word, I reached for the teapot and poured another cup, sliding it toward him. He nodded his thanks, and for a moment, the room was silent except for the faint clinking of porcelain and the muffled sounds from outside the window. I stared at the cup of tea
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 67| How dare he?
Damien The elevator doors slid open with a soft chime, then began to close again when no one stepped inside. I leaned back against the wall, hands tucked into my pockets, watching the numbers tick down on the screen. Another stop. The doors opened, revealing a group of people standing outside, murmuring amongst themselves. But no one moved to enter. They avoided my gaze. Some shuffled awkwardly to the side, while others stared intently at their shoes, pretending not to notice me. They’d wait for the next one, just like everyone else. The elevator felt ten times colder, but it wasn’t the temperature—it was me. I clenched my jaw, my composure slipping as I ran a hand through my hair, attempting to calm the rage threatening to destroy everything in my path. The soft act I’d put on in her office—the restraint, the civility had shattered the moment I stepped out. I was back to who I truly was: cold, ruthless, and distant. But this time, there was something different. An
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 66| Why are all these men asking me out?
Aurora Did I just feel bad? Me? Aurora Williams? Impossible. Why would I feel bad when I didn’t even do anything wrong? I sighed inwardly, crossing my arms as my thoughts spiraled. But why do I hate the idea of him hearing about another man bringing me home? It wasn’t like I owed him anything. I didn’t. I wasn’t his girlfriend, his wife, or even anything close to it. So why was my chest tightening at the idea? Why did I feel this ridiculous pang of guilt? I must’ve hit my head on something. Or maybe… maybe it was the way he kissed me. The way he made me feel. That overwhelming sensation, the pleasure that still lingered on my skin like an imprint. Was it really that good? I bit my lip, heat crawling up my neck. No. It wasn’t just good. It was incredible. It was enough to completely scramble my brain, apparently. Because here I was, getting worked up over a man who wasn’t even mine. And for the first time in my life, I wasn’t sure if that fact bothered me… or sca
The Billionaire Heiress Revenge Comback 65| Why did I feel like I’d just made a terrible mistake?
Aurora A date? With him? Why? He didn’t seem like the type of man who went on dates. He seemed more like the type of man who took what he wanted and left without a second thought. “Aurora,” Damien said, his deep voice snapping me out of my spiraling thoughts. I blinked, my eyes refocusing on him. He tilted his head slightly, studying my expression. “You don’t want to?” he asked, his tone calm but curious. “I’m not asking you to marry me this time. I’m asking you to go out with me. Isn’t that why you were angry last time? Because I was being too straightforward?” His words pulled me back to the day he had asked me to marry him like it was the most normal thing in the world. I swallowed, trying to push the memory aside. But this man…he seemed different. His usual arrogance was still there, but there was something else now. Something softer, like he was trying to go slow, trying to meet me halfway. It didn’t match the version of him I thought I knew. I hesitated,
