On their third anniversary, Allison’s husband coldly asks for a divorce solely because his first love has returned. After three years of loyalty and sacrifice, she’s cast aside without hesitation. But Colton doesn’t know the truth: Allison isn’t a simple housewife, but a hidden genius. And walking away may bring the biggest loss to his life.
She mused to herself about how Colton had only sunk lower since their divorce. It was just a dinner reservation, yet here he was, trying to jump the queue and create a spectacle. The more she looked at him, the more repulsive he appeared. Melany interjected, claiming innocence. “Don’t get mad, Allison. It’s not a…
Once they were alone, Allison served Rebecca a slice of abalone, her favorite delicacy. “I’m heading to the Lloyd family’s house on Monday to tutor Kellan’s niece.” Allison’s brow furrowed with thought as she spoke. “Dealing with a child will be straightforward, but my mother’s whereabouts are tangled up with Kinslee, and that’s the real…
“She’s not even gone, and already she’s turned our family upside down. Back when Allison was around, she was obedient and never created this sort of chaos.” “Mom!” Colton snapped, clearly irked. “And why are you yelling at me? You’ve already lost the deal with the Everett Group; what more can you bear?” Lindy’s voice…
With careful deliberation, Lorna accepted it and returned a quick smile as she showcased her work. The smile took both Allison and Kellan by surprise. “Lorna, you are incredible!” Allison exclaimed, a touch awestruck by the girl before her. When Lorna didn’t smile, she seemed distant, and there was a faint echo of Kellan in…
The butler knew better; something had shifted. He couldn’t help but smile even brighter. One was offering a necklace, while the other was refusing it. If there was something brewing between them, it was their affair to manage. “Why share this with me, sir? I understand. We’ve all navigated these waters.” The butler gave him…
Allison’s eyes went cold, and in one fluid motion, she produced a small blade from her sleeve, the light catching on its edge. But just as Colton’s hand began to descend, someone intervened. A man in a perfectly tailored suit stepped forward, and with one swift, effortless movement, twisted Colton’s arm. Crack. A scream, sharp…
Her hands clenched into tight fists as she tried to steady her breathing. “Mr. Lloyd, I didn’t say anything inappropriate. I would never-how could I spread baseless rumors?” Melany stammered, her voice shaky. Kellan chuckled softly, the sound devoid of warmth, filled instead with mocking amusement. “You seem to have a talent for delving into…
With a smirk, Allison pulled out her phone and hit record, capturing the pathetic scene in full display. “I’ll give you three seconds. Agree or don’t, it’s no skin off my back. Three, two…” At the final count, Colton, furious to the point of nearly passing out, gave a small, reluctant nod. The deal with…
Kellan blinked, briefly thrown off by her casual confidence, before realizing he’d been played. But instead of anger, a grin tugged at his lips. “So, you’re just going to tell me all this upfront, huh? And you’re not worried I’ll snap? You must trust me more than I thought.” As he spoke, he casually pressed…
“Allison, I think Mr. Lloyd has a soft spot for you. I’ve never seen him act this way with anyone else. And knowing you…” Rebecca leaned in closer, her voice teasing. “Come on, be honest. Are you using him?” “You truly have a way of reading me like an open book,” Allison admitted with a…
