After their marriage, Evangeline spent three lonely years dreaming of having a child with Walter. However, when he flaunted his old flame in front of her, she lost all hope. In front of his friends, she slammed the divorce papers down, declaring, "I'm done with you!" She figured there were plenty of men if she wanted a child. Besides, she was wealthy, beautiful, and the heir to a top financial empire. Shortly after the divorce, news of Evangeline offering a large sum for a sperm donor spread like wildfire in the capital's elite circles. "Divorced because her ex-husband was infertile, now offering one hundred fifty million dollars for a high-IQ, handsome, and skilled young man to father her child."

"Don't bother returning if you can't make Walter come home tonight, Evangeline!"It was New Year's Eve.Every home was aglow, families embracing the joy of togetherness. Evangeline Rearden, however, was excluded from the glee. She raced her heavy motorcycle down Jetty Road, cutting through the biting cold wind on a mission to expose Walter's infidelity aboard a cruise ship.The whole city buzzed with the news that her stay-away husband, Walter Gordon, has splurged on a cruise for his mistress, complete with a fireworks display.Still ringing in her ears was the harsh ultimatum her mother-in-law, Aria Jones, delivered at the Gordon family's New Year's Eve feast."Evangeline, Walter is so averse to seeing you that he hasn't come home for the holidays in years! You're just warming the bench. If you can't give us a Gordon heir, call it quits early.

640 chapters 11-15-24 Dear Author, looking at the comments, you are just dragging this story out? Is it really necessary to just repeat stupid misunderstandings? In real life are people really this stupid?

A misunderstanding can be a great tool to generate drama…but when it’s the same never ending loop it just becomes irritating.

This FL seems like a pushover. Always easily threatened to relent to others’ demands. Easily emotionally get riled up and played like a clown by the jerk too. Her ‘background’ that are supposed to be ‘powerful’ can’t even save her to be disrespected, violated & stepped on by her ex again and again

Chapter 2
Evangeline held her gaze before breaking into a sly smile. Her eyes sparkled mischievously as she sauntered toward Walter, heels clicking on the floor.She pulled out a disinfectant wipe and, with a show of casual authority, began to clean the spot on his silk shirt that Julia had touched."You think I want to be in this dump? I'm only here because Grandpa and Mom wouldn't stop nagging."She tossed the wipe away and straightened his collar with feigned nonchalance. "Are you done playing around? Ready to go home?""Go home for what? To play house and make babies?" Walter's dark eyes shimmered with a mysterious allure as he towered over her. "Do you really think you're fit to bear my children?"A laugh escaped Evangeline, a mix of disbelief and pain. Her heart ached like never before.She had, once upon a time, truly wanted to be a mother.Cole was getting on in years, and late-stage lung cancer was a clear sign his days were numbered. His dying wish was to see her and Walter have

Chapter 3
Evangeline's alluring stance sent pulses racing.Pop, pop, pop! Balls dropped into pockets with stunning precision.Her skill was breathtaking. She was every bit Walter's equal, if not better.A hidden gem, indeed.Not just the onlookers, but even Walter's expression changed too. The sound of someone gulping was unmistakable in the tense silence.Then there was the sheer fabric clinging to her body, barely there, which made Walter's face darken with anger.His eyes, dark and predatory, did not miss a thing.Who would have thought? His wife, the one who hardly left their home, had some serious secrets up her sleeve. Her skill at the pool table was not only a shock to the onlookers but to him as well—he had had no idea.Walter's right-hand man, Hector, could tell things were about to go south and quickly ushered everyone out. However, Julia, blind to the brewing storm, stubbornly stayed put.She had hoped to see Evangeline humiliated, but the tables had turned. It was Julia who

Walter did not allow Evangeline to fight back, not sparing her another glance. With a face of stone and a fury that could shake the earth, he stormed out, slamming the door behind him.The sound was like thunder, and the chill wind that followed seemed to freeze the room, the dark night and churning sea outside consuming Evangeline's heart.However, she did not rage. She laughed, a laugh that kept the tears at bay, and hurled her cup against the wall. "Walter, you bastard!"Her inner rebel, long caged, shattered the facade she had maintained for three years. He had flaunted Julia in her face, a clear message to get out of the Gordon family. However, when she was ready to do just that, he balked?She was not fooled. Walter was not the type to have second thoughts. He was always the one in charge, the mastermind. He would be damned if he was not the one calling the shots in their marriage, too.He could walk away from her, leaving her to wear the label of a divorcee, but she was not

Chapter 5
...Aria whispered to her son with a mix of affection and irritation, "Didn't Evangeline go looking for you last night? She's still not back? She's not with you? She can't have kids, and now she's out all night during the holidays, not answering her phone, breaking all the rules. Your grandpa is furious!"I should've never agreed to let you bring her into this family. She's a country girl, nowhere near your league. Marrying into the Gordons was the luckiest thing to ever happen to her!"Walter's mind flashed back to Evangeline's determined mention of divorce the previous night, to her drinking and shooting pool, so different from the demure image she maintained at the Gordons'.Walter chuckled derisively. "We'll see about that."Aria, not fully grasping Walter's intent and preferring to avoid the topic of the unwelcome daughter-in-law, said, "I heard Julia is back. I don't care if your grandpa agrees or not, I'm giving Evangeline three more months. If she can't get pregnant, she'l

Walter ended the call, a storm brewing in his chest. He paced the room with a gloomy expression and smoked one cigarette after another until the last one was crushed in the ashtray.He grabbed his coat and stormed out of the bedroom, not without delivering a swift kick to the coffee table that sent it toppling over.Feeling the extremely low pressure, wherever he walked felt like a hurricane had passed through.Aria, oblivious to the brewing tempest, chased after him. "You just got back, and it's the holidays! Where are you off to now? Why not stay and spend some time with me?"Walter said nothing as he marched out with a scowl on his face.Just then, his phone rang. It was Caden Scott, his close friend."Missed the show on your yacht last night. I heard Evangeline gave you the boot and wants a divorce?""News travels fast. I'm hanging up," said Walter."Wait, don't hang up. So it's over? Who would've thought Evangeline had it in her to be so tough? The whole social circle is b

Chapter 7
In the good old days at the Gordon estate, Evangeline lived as she pleased, fresh-faced and carefree. However, after she decided to divorce Walter, she was all glammed up—makeup, fashion, the works.Evangeline tossed her hair back, and her lipstick-painted lips quirked into a smirk. "Who says I can't pay for my own lawyer?""Is that so? I bet you can't even cover the bill for this fancy suite anymore!"What a laugh.Evangeline sent Walter stumbling with a shove and strutted out of the suite, her heels clicking like a judge's gavel.However, as fate would have it, the moment she hit the lobby, the hotel manager was on her like a hawk.After a quick nod to Walter, he blocked her path."Ms. Rearden, so sorry to bother you, but are you checking out or staying longer? Could you please settle your bill at the front desk?"That was when it hit her—this was a hotel under Gordon Group.Despite falling out of favor, everyone still knew her as Mrs. Walter Gordon, and the manager had even

At the sound of the voice, Evangeline glanced toward the entrance.James strode in, looking sharp in his suit and his scholarly gold-rimmed glasses. Evangeline's caution melted away as she rushed to him, clinging to his arm and murmuring something.James' expression turned icy as he shot Walter a withering look, then led Evangeline to the front desk.Like a knight in shining armor, he whipped out his phone and took care of the bill. "Ms. Rearden's room charges are on me."Just like that, 300000 dollars hit the hotel's account with a thud."Forget the change."Mr. Walter Gordon, you're so tightfisted with your wife. Consider the rest a parting gift from me, for all the kindness you've shown our Evie these last couple of years."With that, he whisked Evangeline away, leaving Walter as if he were nothing but a ghost.Who would have guessed James would settle Evangeline's bill without batting an eye? They must share a bond deeper than anyone else knew.Walter's expression hardened

Chapter 9
The New Year holiday brought a stream of visitors to the Gordons'. The estate was ablaze with lights and festive cheer.In the living room, a circle of society ladies chatted, with her mother-in-law Aria playing the gracious hostess.Evangeline's gaze landed on the familiar mother-daughter duo sitting beside Walter's mother Aria—Julia and her mother.Lydia Carlson, Julia's mother, was all dolled up in a pink dress that still showed off her timeless grace, with bold and striking makeup. Julia was decked out in a fancy yellow gown so grand that everyone would think she was the bride at a wedding.Julia fluttered around Aria like a butterfly, laying on the charm thick. "Mdm Gordon, it's been three whole years, and look at you—more gorgeous and youthful than ever. If we hit the town together, people will swear we're sisters."Aria's smile was wide enough to light up the room, her eyes twinkling with fondness for Julia. "Oh, Julia, you've had it rough while you were away. It warms my h

Chapter 10
At last, Evangeline's gaze landed on Walter by the door.His tall frame cut a silhouette against the light as he handed his black suit jacket to the butler, his black vest and crisp white shirt in full view.He walked forward, face stern as he adjusted his tie. He did not have to say a word, and the room's mood plummeted to an icy chill.The once festive hall fell silent. Everyone's eyes were glued to the scene, anticipating the drama.Nonetheless, Evangeline was composed. She had heard the car engine outside the moment she slapped Julia, and those slaps were a show for him.Walter's steady steps brought him closer, his eyes briefly scanning Julia's swollen face before settling on Evangeline, his brow furrowing in disapproval.Julia, sensing a shift, ran down the stairs to Walter, her tears turned to weapons. "Don't be mad at her, Walt. She's probably upset and didn't want to see me, causing her to lash out."Walter's eyes were icy as he stared at her. "Who said you could come h
