Divorce Celine pov It was our third anniversary, and I was overwhelmed. I have long awaited and anticipated this day. I was going to try to win my husband's love. Sure, I knew that my marriage was going to work, even if it's not been a bed of roses for these three years. I was determined and undeterred in my pursuit of a happy and loving home full of emotions and everything good I had ever imagined. I woke up that morning feeling relieved and full of excitement and without hesitation, I hurried with the chores, freshened up, and made his favorite meal. When I was done, I hurriedly checked in the Glorcies store to get his favorite wine when I noticed we ran out of it in the wine chamber. I almost stormed into a moving vehicle in an attempt to hasten up the preparation and setting before his arrival from his weekend business trip. Entering the mansion, I paused to take a deep breath, tapping my chest and reaffirming that plans were in place and it was going to work out. I k

PregnantI left the house almost in a hurried state with no clue of where to go from there. We had no property in our name, and Harry had refused to get one after the demise of my mother.With no clue in view, I decided to check into a hotel with the little savings left. I hailed a cab and went straight to the hotel.Hopefully, I got a room for a considerable amount and it fit my budget, so I paid for two days with not enough money left to sustain me for the time frame while I chased an alternative plan.Entering the room, I threw myself mercilessly on the bed, and tears welled down voluntarily. I sobbed uncontrollably until there were no more tears left. My eyes were red and puffy. My entire look was a mess. Lying there, I wished my family were never poor. If I were from a rich home, he wouldn't have humiliated me the way he did. The urge to end my life surged, but it was withheld when I thought of my childhood ambitions of being a successful jewelry designer to make my mom proud. Un

Chapter 3

REJECTEDWithout any delay, Evelyn and I hailed a cab to Harry's house, hoping to break the news to him and, hopefully, that he might take me back. We arrived only to find the gate locked with new padlocks. It seemed no one was in the building; the cars, security, and gatekeeper were all gone.I was stunned by the sight, and so was Evelyn. Our gazes locked, and I could only gasp.“What’s happening? Why does it look like Harry has vacated this premises? It doesn’t look like anyone is here,” Evelyn asked in a concerned tone, her fears evident in her expression.I was shocked, my heart racing, and my lips parted. I couldn’t comprehend what was happening. Having been married to Harry for three years, this had always been our home—his only property that I knew about. If he had truly relocated or vacated this property, where could he have gone? Harry was a very reclusive person; he liked doing his things without involving anyone.I was left in the dark about whatever he did. I was clueless

Chapter 4

Harry's POV I have never loved her from the beginning; I just took advantage of her mother's illness to marry her as orchestrated by my mother to execute our revenge. She is a loving and hardworking woman who happened to be a victim of my revenge plan. Poor her, having to pay for the sins of her mother. I must admit that during the first year of our marriage, I was nearly falling for her love. She wouldn't stop trying to win me over—family dinners I barely attended, house chores, the laundry, early morning routines. She did all these regularly, but I never let them affect me because I had always wanted to inflict pain on her, not the other way around. Loving her was against the plan, as I was already married to Lily and had a son with her. I hid my real family from everyone, including my friends, to ensure my legitimate wife, Lily, would not learn about my fake contract marriage with Celine. The marriage was fake and remained hidden until our third anniversary when I decided to gi

JOBWe stopped and waited for the guy to approach. It seemed his eyes had been on us from the moment we entered the bar.He approached and stood in front of us, scrutinising us from head to toe. When he met our gaze, he smirked victoriously and left.“So, psychos also come to this joint?” I asked, turning to Evelyn, who was also shocked by the guy's performance.The joint looked decent, so I wasn't expecting to see such a stunt pulled on us.“Are you sure you are safe with this job?” Evelyn asked in a concerned tone, having witnessed the scene earlier.I tapped her shoulder. “Yes, I can. It's just for the time being. I will be resigning as soon as another job shows up,” I spoke calmly. “Not that I have a choice,” I added with a smile.She watched for a while. “Just make sure you are safe,” she said, her tone filled with emotion.“Anyway, I spoke with my friend, and she accepted you to stay in the vacant room in her place. I have already paid for six months. You will be staying there

HIMThat was Jack, the handsome tall dude that every girl in the bar was dying for. He was actually a speck, you know. I freaked out the moment he approached and took a closer look at me, my heart racing, not expecting to get a sack directly from the boss himself. “Oh please, I wasn't expecting to cause a scene, just that the urge struck me badly leaving me with no option but to dash out. Oh, I'm sorry. Please, I need this job. I need to pay my bills and make a living. I don't have anywhere else to work aside from this.” I muttered in my thoughts, freaked out by his constant gaze.Then he took some steps closer until he was dead close to us, my head still lowered in anxiety, my body almost trembling. The fire set ablaze when he finally spoke. “I think I like you already,” his words ensconced with emotions and calm like an iceberg. I couldn't comprehend what he just said. It took about half a minute before those lines made sense to me. “He likes me? But how?” I asked in my thoughts, s

KISSStill seated in the cab, everything became numb. I couldn't comprehend the sudden turn of events. I was snapped out of my thoughts when my phone beeped, almost startling me. I hesitated, then composed myself before taking it out of the bag without looking at the screen to identify the caller.“Where are you?” the caller swiftly demanded. I quickly took the phone away from my ear to see who it was; the voice wasn't familiar.“Oh, Evelyn?” I inquired, as the voice sounded different.“Yes, girl, it's me. Sorry, I have something in my mouth. Can we meet? I have some news I want to share with you.”“Sure,” I replied abruptly. What I needed at that moment was someone to lean on, to wake up and realize everything that had happened was just a nightmare and never existed. But would that wish ever be granted?“Meet me at Marshall Suite,” she said, and with that, the call ended.“Ma, where to?” the driver inquired.I provided him with the directions, and he nodded, quickly focusing on his d

DATELooking straight into my eyes, he let out a reassuring smile and dipped his hands into his suit pocket. I was stunned, unsure of what to expect, so I widened my eyes, narrowing them as I studied his features.“And what...” My thoughts were interrupted when he leaned forward. I felt the urge to step backward, but I couldn't. He had this captivating aura that I couldn't resist. It felt like I was pinned to the spot, unable to move. The more I tried, the more frustrated I became. I gave up and stood under his intense gaze, sighing deeply.Then, he pulled his hands out of his pocket, revealing what looked like a handkerchief, with which he wiped the part of my forehead where he had earlier planted the kiss.Stunned by his actions, I stood still in disbelief, trying to comprehend what was happening. Unable to utter a word, he smiled and said, “May I have the pleasure of taking my lady out?” He gestured, bowing his head and extending his hand toward me.Subconsciously, I accepted his h

Jack's povGetting her to do my bidding wasn’t far-fetched; I knew exactly which buttons to press at every moment to make her fall head over heels for me.The moment I saw her in the bar, her face looked familiar, but I couldn’t place where I had met such beauty before. It wasn’t until Sam leaned forward and whispered that she was Harry’s ex-wife that it clicked.I smirked victoriously. Having my rival’s ex-wife wouldn’t be a bad deal at all. My plans were smoothly falling into place. She was an innocent, gorgeously looking lady with an elegance that drew every man’s attention. Such beauty was wasted in Harry’s possession. That man sure has the nerve, thinking the world revolves around him. But no, it doesn’t. His little world is too small to withstand the pressure when it comes.Watching her walk away when I arrived at the bar wasn’t clear to me, but whatever the case, it would soon be revealed. I was undeterred in my revenge plan. Harry must dance to the fierce beat of the jungle wh

Chapter 10

Harry's povIt was my make-out time with Lily, and I took her to the suite. I needed to make it up to her for being absent on her birthday. The same contract that had me tirelessly working day and night was the one I learned Jack and his boss, Williams Wood, were also interested in. It struck me to my core, leaving me devastated. I’ve worked in the sector for years and have never experienced such a scenario. How could Jack and his boss be interested in the same project?I knew Williams Wood, the dreaded boss, was not someone to be trifled with. He always got whatever he wanted, and this was no exception. He's the boss of a notorious mafia group, and no one dares to cross him—not even me. But I was deeply wounded. Never before had I had to go up against the boss himself, but this time, I needed a strategy to get him out of the way. I really needed that contract and would do whatever was within my power to secure it secretly.Sitting next to Lily, I tried to make it up to her. “I’m sorr
