I was devoted to Tom Collin, a man whose ambition I once admired. I gave up my career, my future, my entire identity for him. I was the perfect wife while he built his empire. But when he reached the top, I became invisible.
Then I found him with her—his college ex, the woman who’d abandoned him when he had nothing. When I confronted him, the man I married vanished, replaced by a monster whose hands left bruises on my skin.
I was finally ready to leave. But I never got the chance. He left our five-year-old daughter, Joy, alone for his mistress. And in his absence, my baby was murdered.
I buried my child, and with her, the weak woman I used to be. In a haze of grief, I let a handsome stranger hold me for one night in Italy—a single moment of oblivion.
Five years later, I live for one purpose: Revenge. Tom Collin will pay for what he did. He has no idea the woman now standing before him. But my new boss… he might. The magnetic CEO of our rival company is the stranger from that night. And he doesn’t know he’s the father of my secret daughter.


Does this man seriously think I wandered in here like some social media influencer hunting for the perfect backdrop? The assumption alone made my blood simmer. I wasn't some college kid with a smartphone looking to pose next to expensive machinery I couldn't afford.


"Listen carefully," I said, my voice cutting through the showroom's polished silence. "You've completely misunderstood why we're here. We didn't come to take pictures with your inventory.

I moved closer, my heels creating a sharp rhythm against the marble floor. The sound seemed to bounce off the glass walls surrounding us, amplifying the tension that had settled between us like a thick cloud.
