CHAPTER 1

Davina pov Sitting in the restaurant with my family and my husband's family, I couldn't help but notice one person who had made it her life's mission to make my existence miserable—Courtney, my sister.Courtney had finished her education and had now returned.My husband, Sebastian, and my sister were eating and laughing, discussing things as if it were their first date, while I sat there, feeling like a third wheel—even though it was supposed to be a family dinner. I sat across the table, watching the scene unfold as I gently rubbed my small belly, which held the unborn child I had recently discovered I was carrying. This was supposed to be a family gathering, but as usual, I felt like an outsider. None of them even noticed that I wasn't eating, as they were all too busy listening to whatever it was Courtney was saying to my husband. I watched Sebastian gaze at Courtney with so much longing as she passed him the salad bowl. His first love had returned, and I was left

CHAPTER 2

Davina Courtney stood up to make her announcement, and the room fell silent as everyone waited for her to speak. "So, I just want to share with you all... I'm two weeks pregnant," she said, a smile spreading across her face. Everyone’s mouths dropped open, and confused glances were exchanged as they tried to process her words. "Then who is the father of the child?" I asked, breaking the silence in a mix of curiosity and disbelief. Courtney smiled before answering. "Sebastian is the father." My eyes widened in shock at her statement. "What?!" I exclaimed, standing up in disbelief as I tried to process what I had just heard. Everyone turned to look at me—Sebastian remained silent, and Courtney wore a smug smirk. “Davina, sit down. You’re embarrassing us,” my mother hissed, glancing nervously around the restaurant. All eyes were on our table now. I turned to her, fuming. “I’m embarrassing you? Not your whore of a daughter, who slept with my hu

CHAPTER 3

Davina’s povI sat in the cold, dimly lit cell, replaying the events at the restaurant in my mind. How had it come to this? Ending up in jail was the last thing I ever expected. Why did the woman I once called "Mother" hate me so much? The question burned in my mind as I leaned back against the wall, letting the memories drag me to a time when I was just a child. ---I was in a grand living room, the kind of place you’d see in magazines. My eyes wandered over the ornate furniture and glimmering chandelier, but none of it felt familiar. In truth, nothing did—not the house, not the people, not even myself. All I remembered was waking up in a hospital bed with a man and a woman watching me nervously. Now, here I was in their home, sipping on a juice box the woman had handed me. “Hey, sweetheart,” she said gently, her voice warm but cautious. She watched me as if I might break at any moment. “Hi,” I mumbled, taking another sip. “Do you remember anything? What happened to you?”

CHAPTER 4

Davina's POVI blinked in confusion, staring up at the guard. A lawyer? My pulse quickened. I wasn’t expecting anyone—certainly not so soon. Slowly, I stood, my boots echoing against the concrete floor as I followed him out of the murky cell block. As we stepped into the hallway, my gaze landed on a young man in a sharp navy suit. He stood tall, exuding quiet confidence. His dark eyes locked on mine, and he offered a faint but reassuring smile. “Mrs. Campbell?” he asked, his voice calm and steady. I nodded, too stunned to speak. “I’m Cole Daniels,” he said, extending a hand. “Your lawyer.” I hesitated before shaking it. His grip was firm, his hand warm against my freezing skin. “Who… who called you?” I managed, my voice unsteady. He gestured for me to follow him down the corridor. “Your assistant, Jane. She’s worried about you and thought I could help.” Jane. A wave of emotion surged through me, tightening my throat. Despite everything, she still believed in me. I no

CHAPTER 5

I stood there, my wrist still tingling from Sebastian’s grip, my pulse hammering in my ears. The station buzzed around me, officers moving back and forth, their voices blending into a meaningless hum. I had taken my phone and called Cole's number immediately to come take me away from here. For Jane to trust him, he was the only person I could trust at this moment. I should have felt relief. I was free. But instead, my stomach churned with fury. Sebastian wanted me to sit through that meeting like nothing had happened? Like he hadn’t just thrown our marriage away and humiliated me? Like his family hadn’t tried to bury me? Who the fuck does that? And he even had the effrontery to threaten me? I clenched my fists, "No. He doesn’t get to decide how I walk away from this." I turned toward the exit, and made my way out. The moment I stepped outside, the evening air hit my soul and it felt like I'd been in that cell for decades. A black car was parked a

CHAPTER 6

I drove into Sebastian's estate that evening, my fingers gripping the steering wheel with more force than necessary. I was fuming and I believe I could pluck his eyes out of the socket if he were near me at this moment. My mind raced with questions, my heart beating erratically in my chest. What else did he want from me? I just got out of jail, I should be resting. The wrought-iron gates opened slowly, groaning as if protesting my presence. I hated how familiar it all was, how the sight of it still evoked a mixture of nostalgia and resentment. This is where I had lived for three years and now, I feel like a stranger. As I pulled into the circular driveway and parked my car, exhaustion settled over me like a heavy cloak. I exhaled sharply, rubbing my temples before stepping out of the vehicle. I looked around. No one was in sight. That was rather odd. The air was still, eerily so. A prickle of unease crept up my spine. I prayed that neither Courtney nor my

CHAPTER 7

I woke up to the creaking of the wooden floor, the file Sebastian had dropped on the table last night, I didn't even bother to open it. My body ached, not from exhaustion but from Sebastian’s response to my question last night and to be very honest, I regretted asking. "No, not once." The cruelty in his voice had been sharper than a knife, the way be said it with a straight face and walked out, did I really mean nothing to him? I had spent the entire night staring at the dim ceiling, questioning every moment I had shared with him, every memory I once held dear. How could he have never loved me? Not once? I was there for him when Courtney toyed with his heart, gave him a shoulder to lean on and all that was for nothing? The thought only made my chest tighten with a dull, throbbing ache. I looked up and saw there was already a suit and a platter of food on the table. A quick shower washed away the grime of the night, but not the exhaustion weighing me down. I dr

CHAPTER 8

As the meeting concluded, I rose from my seat with a calmness that belied the storm raging inside me. Everyone was silent as they watch me stand, picking up my file. Sebastian, sitting beside me, his knuckles white as he clenched the armrests of his chair. He could not say a word. I could feel the weight of his glare pressing against my back as I strode toward the door. He was furious, and for once, I didn't care. The hallway felt colder than usual as I made my way to what used to be my office. I hesitated for a moment before pushing the door open. The sight that greeted me was a painful confirmation of my new reality. Most of my belongings had been packed away in my absence. The bookshelves were nearly bare, my once meticulously arranged desk now stripped of all personality. The air smelled faintly of lavender, a scent that had always brought me comfort but now only served as a reminder of what I had lost. A lump formed in my throat, but I swallowed i

CHAPTER 9

The soft leather of the sofa pressed against my back as I sat upright, my eyes scanning the document spread across my lap. My fingers absently traced the edges of the crisp paper, a subconscious attempt to anchor myself to the words on the page. Every clause, every stipulation, demanded my full attention, but my mind churned with unease. After leaving the headquarters this morning, I could not go back to the hell hole of a cottage Sebastian had me sleep in last night, so I came straight to Jane's apartment. That was the only place I could stay for now. I could tell Sebastian was very upset when I left the office, and I expected him to call me to give his usual orders but I was ready for him this time. He did not get to order me around like his servant, but fortunately for him, he didn't call me. And I wondered what could be going on in his mind. Jane's footsteps were barely audible against the carpet, but the subtle aroma of freshly brewed coffee announced her prese

CHAPTER 10

I lifted the phone to my ear, my fingers tightening around the device as a familiar voice slithered through the speaker. Courtney. Her laughter was light, airy, dripping with condescension, but it was the words that followed that sent a cold chill racing down my spine. "Why are you calling my husband at this hour, Davina?" she asked, her tone deceptively sweet. For a moment, I was stunned into silence. I swallowed back the sharp retort perched on my tongue and steadied my voice before responding. "Is Sebastian there or not? It is him I want to speak with, so hand over the phone to him," I said, keeping my tone as composed as possible. There was no need to show her how much her words rattled me. Courtney laughed again, but this time it was edged with cruelty. "How can you be so shameless and desperate, Davina? Chasing after my husband with calls? Haven't you humiliated yourself enough? Sebastian isn’t willing to talk to you. Fucking move on. There is no way
