It's been a week since Aurora began her consistent training. She would leave home whenever Caspian went to work, making sure to return before he returned.

The list of those representing the country in the competition against the Western world was out. Aurora's name was boldly written at the top of the list posted on the board. Annabel's eyes widened in disbelief. She wiped her eyes with the back of her right hand and looked at the list again, carefully searching for her name.

"This is a lie! No! Something is amiss!" she screamed. She wished she could break the glass covering the board, tear down the list, and rewrite a new one with her name at the top.

Aurora watched from a distance, staring intensely at Annabel. She was glad Annabel could see her name boldly and smiled sweetly, especially as she took her revenge slowly.

"I am glad you are feeling the pain I felt years ago," she muttered quietly.

"How could Aurora be the team lead, and my name isn't among those representing the country

    Aurora ignored the crowd, including the handsome man surrounded by admirers, and sashayed elegantly toward the flower section. Dressed as a common peasant, no one noticed her as an important person."Hi, I like these flowers and want to get some for my husband!" Aurora said to the sales representatives, pointing to red flowers with white lines that were beautifully designed. They acted as if they didn't see her."Excuse me, I want to get some flowers!" Aurora's voice reverberated through their ears again. This time, one of the sales representatives stared at Aurora disdainfully, giving her a cold look."Excuse me, this is a flower mall for wealthy people. Have you seen the prices on them? Do they look like something you can afford?" she retorted sharply. Before Aurora could respond, the handsome man walked elegantly toward the sales representative. His black blazer shone brightly, indicating it was well-ironed. The sales representative screamed at his sight."Oh! Alton, he is so cute!"

    Aurora opened the car door and sat down. Without uttering a word, Caspian drove off. Aurora wanted to ask where he was coming from, as she had thought he was home. Within three minutes, he drove into their villa, the gate opening wide by the gatekeeper.Stepping out of the car, Caspian walked to Aurora and held her hand romantically as they went to their room."We were supposed to have a dinner date, but it will be postponed to another time. I made us a scrumptious meal, but first, you must go in, shower, and put on a nice dress. I will feed you tonight," Caspian said as they entered the sitting room, his hand holding Aurora's."Thank you, my husband," Aurora muttered, smiling sweetly at Caspian. It still felt like a dream to her that Caspian would show her any form of love. She hurried into her room, walked to the bathroom, and washed herself thoroughly with warm water.She put on a short red gown. Though it wasn't well-designed, it highlighted her well-curved, slim shape. Coming out

    "I am sorry, Aurora; please forgive me for all the wrongs I have done to you," Annabel roared, faking a crocodile's tears. Aurora looked around to confirm that there were not many people staring. She spotted some people staring from afar and immediately pulled Annabelle up. "Annabel, are you being serious right now? What's all this? Of course, you didn't offend me," Aurora said as he pleaded with Annabel to stand. "Of course I did; it was the time of the unknown; I was filled with youthful exorbitant then, please forgive me, you are a good person; you don't deserve how I have treated you in the past," Annabel said. Aurora sighed as her heart walked through how she had treated Aurora in the past; however, she felt she might be a changed person. Her husband, Caspian, had treated her worst, and now he has changed and turned a new leaf even without apologizing, so Annabel's case wouldn't be different."It's fine! Annabel, let it slide; it was in the past," Aurora eventually muttered; how

    In a few minutes, Aurora was taken to the room by another woman, with the help of one of the guys they had planned with. She ensured she bought an expensive outfit for the guy to make him look rich. She then opened the sensitive parts of Aurora's body and took indecent pictures of Aurora with the guy, who was grasping Aurora's thigh, pecking her, and holding firmly onto her breasts on the big gigantic bed, ensuring Aurora's hands were well-rounded on the guy's back. She took many pictures, dressed Aurora well again, and took her out to the VIP bar, lying on the sofa in the VIP section.She scrolled through her phone for Caspian's contact. Caspian had given her his card when they met at the ring mall, and since then, she had planned to get Caspian to herself and make Aurora's life miserable.She picked up the contact, saved it on her second phone, and forwarded it to Caspian's W******p.Caspian smiled sweetly, staring at Aurora’s picture and thinking about the plans already made.

    With teary eyes, she handed over the divorce papers to Caspian, who took them from her and walked out of her sight, tears welling in her eyes. She decided to let go of Caspian instantly; it was high time she forgot about Caspian and whoever had made her life horrible in the past.“He wouldn't love me if he didn't find out he was impotent. His love isn't genuine,” she muttered and walked into her room. She dropped her bag on the small table opposite the cushion, took a deep breath, and walked into the bathroom. The water was so cold as she poured it on her face and washed away her tears. She took the face towel hung on the iron hanger and wiped her face. She walked to her bed and dialed her mother's number.“Hi, Mother," her voice sounded soft as soon as Seraphine picked up the call.“Hi, my darling daughter, are you alright?" Seraphine asked, sensing from her voice that something was not right.“I am good, Mum," Aurora replied, faking a smile. "I just wanted to ask for your assistance!

    Aurora woke up the following morning with thoughts of Caspian. Looking around the gigantic bed with its white bedspread, she realized she was no longer with him. She stood up from the bed, walked towards the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face thoroughly. When she left her room, she was shocked to see a housekeeper waiting patiently at her doorstep."Good morning, young mistress. I am here to inform you that your breakfast is ready! I will walk you to the dining room; madam is already waiting,” the housekeeper said. Aurora was shocked, wondering why the housekeeper had waited until she left the room.“If I stay with Mum for too long, I will definitely add a lot of weight," she thought and smiled as she followed the housekeeper to the dining table. She met Seraphine, drinking hot coffee and listening to the news on the television."Hi, my darling daughter. Good morning. I hope you had a nice night,” Seraphine said, stretching her hands towards Aurora for a hug."Mum, I did.

    It's been 11 days now, and Caspian couldn't stop thinking about Aurora; however, he swore not to have anything to do with her again, especially whenever he remembered the pictures of Aurora lying down in indecent positions with another man. As usual, he sat watching the television in his sitting room. The news suddenly displayed a wrestling competition and those representing it. He had never had any interest in wrestling or anything related to it, but he felt weak that day as thoughts of Aurora and his beautiful romantic moments with her before the issues surfaced. He couldn't change the channel and decided to watch what the wrestling news was all about.“It’s beautiful to announce the winner of this year's international wrestling competition. It's none other than Aurora Sterling. She has made her community proud.” Hearing the name Aurora, Caspian became interested, and his eyes fully opened as he sat upright to confirm the name again. It sounded like his ex-wife's name. Then, suddenl

    "Let go of her," he screamed. Hearing and sighting Caspian, the handsome CEO, most of them backed off; it was then gossip kept flying that it was true; she was indeed the wife of Caspian; no one knew about their divorce yet; it was a silent divorce. "Oh! She looked so different; I can't believe that lady can look hot and beautiful as such," some of them gossiped. "In Fact, money is so good!" Aurora, who was so drunk, was oblivious to the whole surroundings. It was the first time she would take such many alcoholic drinks, and she drank more than she could; she started belching profusely. Caspian immediately booked a room; he wanted to take her home. However, he felt it was too late to do that. He booked the best, classic, expensive room, and room Aurora and dragged Aurora with him to the room.When they got to the room, Aurora immediately grasped Caspian's neck. "Is that my husband? Is this you? I miss you!" She screamed, got hold of Caspian's neck and started kissing him profusely;

    After then, Aurora raised her chin and steady her gaze as she walked briskly away from Caspian towards the entrance of the mall, and her heels clicked sharply on the polished floor. Caspian, without wasting any time, trailed behind her; desperation was clearly written all over his face as he tried to keep up to her pace. "Aurora," he whispered in an insistent voice as he leaned very close to Aurora, hoping Aurora would hear him and give him a listening ear. "Aurora, what do you want to trust me on again? I have done what you requested of me to do; I have made Annabel apologize to you in public and also broke up with her, and now I am ready to be your errand boy. Please, I need you to help me, father, and business." Aurora didn't respond; she kept her face nonchalant, and her attention was fixed straight ahead. She didn't take any glance at him, and her silence made him more desperate.However, when she wanted to make a turn at him, something quickly caught her attention. There was a

    Caspian was frozen as he stood for a moment; he couldn't believe what had just been revealed to him. He was hit by the weight of Aurora words like a tidal wave. He was shocked that Annabelle was behind everything—the lies, the pictures, and the manipulation. He couldn't believe that she had manipulated him, ruined his marriage, and destroyed his trust in Aurora, and he fell for the lies—every bit of her lies. He squeezed his fist behind him as he gawked at Annabel in annoyance. His eyes were full of flames of fire; he was furious as he tightened his jaw. He wanted to scream at her for every evil thing she had done; he wanted to lash harder on her; he wanted to slap her across the face to make her feel all the pains he had gone through, which he had caused him for the past years.However, he held back and forced himself to control his anger; he didn't want to lose it now; he didn't want to lose it in front of Aurora. He didn't want her to think he was still the same man who had hurt h

    Annabele's eyes opened in shock; her heart beat in succession as she tried to understand why Caspian had requested that she kneel and apologize to Aurora. To her, it didn't make any sense, and it was a humiliating thing for her to do. She battled with the thoughts of if Aurora had told him everything that happened years ago. That she was the one that drugged Aurora’s drink years back, and what's the orchestrator of their divorce, just all because she could have Caspian? The thoughts made her head spin, and a scream of anger steamed up inside her. She couldn't keep quitting anymore; she needed to know the reason why Caspian wanted to humiliate her and wanted her to apologize to Aurora in public; she felt like it was nothing but an absolute disgrace. “Why?” Annabel demanded furiously, her voice raised, looking deeply into Alton's eyes, then back to Aurora. “Why exactly do you want to humiliate me like this in front of this bitch?” She spat out words, obviously at Aurora, with deep hat

    Caspian sat in silence, his mind filled with the thoughts of Aurora's demand. He bowed his head as the weight of Aurora's words pressed him down. The thought of how a prestigious CEO like himself will all of a sudden turn into an errand boy hurt his pride and self-esteem really hard. He tightened his fist, and he tried to reduce his thoughts; he was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond to Aurora. Without uttering a word, he stood up with his pride degraded from the seat and walked towards the door; his movements were hard. However, as he made his way to the door, Aurora's voice echoed deeply and sharply behind him. “Don't forget, Caspian, you only have three days to get back to me!” Hearing that, he halted his steps to decide what Aurora had said, still maintaining his position without turning to Aurora.Caspian tightened his lips, clenched his fist without uttering any words, finally made a move, and walked out of Aurora's office. Aurora adjusted herself perfectly in h

    The following morning, Caspian got dressed in a plain white shirt. Tugging its shirt in black trousers, his tie was well knotted, even though stress was obviously displayed on his face. He still looks extremely classic, looking every inch like a CEO. He walked elegantly to Apex Group, his heart pounding. He hoped that today he would achieve the reason he visited Apex Group. As he approached the receptionist, as usual, she greeted him with respect and immediately placed a call through to Aurora to confirm if she had an appointment with Caspian.“Hi ma'am, CEO Caspian is here; may I confirm if you have an appointment with him?” Her voice echoed deeply into Aurora's ear. Caspian's eyes became widely opened; he instantly knew the call would yield no positivity; Aurora wouldn't allow him in. However, if what he had envisaged was right, he had other plans. “I don't want to see him; do not allow him in; else you lose your job,” Aurora threatening as her voice echoed deeply into the receptio

    Aurora maintained her gaze at Caspian, already losing her temper. “What do you want, Caspian?” “Who is this boy's father?” Caspian responded with a quivering voice. As he swayed his gaze to Aurora, then back to Rome. “It's none of your business, and have you forgotten you had a low sperm count when we were together? So how possible would you impregnate me?” Aurora's face turned cold as he responded shabbily to Caspian. Caspian became shocked, obvious to Aurora and Ralph, who sat helpless, still holding firmly to Rome's end. He was speechless and decided to watch the two speak. Caspian immediately remembered years ago that he was diagnosed with low sperm count, he recalled that he didn't even finish his treatment. He got more hit by the realization. He wanted to immediately disappear from Aurora and Ralph's presence, as he felt he was being so humiliated already. However, as he stared at Rome, the boy striking resemblance to him couldn't make him stop, couldn't make him leave

    Caspian was stuck in the car, paralyzed by the news that displayed vividly on the small screen of his car. He gawked his eyes at the image of the news playing on the screen right in front of him. The image of the burned warehouse filled the tiny space; he was crushed and couldn't believe his multi-million dollar goods were gone in a twinkle of an eye. He lay his head helplessly on the wheel of his car. His heart crushed more as the thought of what he had just battled just in days almost ran him insane. His father was just sent abroad for medical surgery, his ex-wife was back, and he couldn't believe that Aurora had changed so much. She wasn't the timid young lady he once knew; she is now a sophisticated young woman with enormous power. He groaned in pain as he wished to have her back. Coupled with his terrible sad news. He knew right away he had gone bankrupt, and the only way to help him now not to be ruined more financially is for him to merge his companies with this most powerful c
