After Divorce, Billionaires Competed Over Me
After five years of marriage, Melody finally realized—she had never truly married anyone.
The marriage certificate was forged. Her husband, Adam, was legally wed to her best friend, Lily. And Melody? She had been the most innocent pawn in a meticulously crafted deception.
The betrayals didn’t stop there. Her supposed infertility was a lie, and the child she had poured her love into raising was, in fact, Adam and Lily’s biological son. Five years of devotion—through their eyes, she had served only three purposes: a free housekeeper, a cheap business partner, and a disposable pawn.
She had believed in love. That, above all, was her greatest folly.
Yet Melody didn’t break. She didn’t cry, and she didn’t beg. Instead, she turned her gaze to the man who struck fear into the entire business world—Kiel Summers. Rumor had it he was ruthless, even deadly, and that any woman who became his companion ended up either dead or insane.
Still, she walked into his office—and struck a deal.
She offered him dignity; he offered her protection. Each got what they needed, with no promises of love.
A cold, enigmatic man in a world full of danger. A clear-eyed, independent woman, scarred by betrayal yet still capable of kindness.
Two broken souls, sharing the same fortress, bound by a single contract.
