Chapter 1

Royal's arm candy was having another meltdown.

He handed me the divorce papers. "Just sign them, would you? It's just to appease the girl."

Gripping the hem of my vintage dress, I nodded quietly and signed my name.

As I was about to leave, I overheard his buddies teasing, "Your wife is way too compliant. Would she still nod if you told her to get the certificate?"

Royal lit a cigarette with a sly grin. "Want to put money on that?"

They joked that in a month, at the courthouse, I'd be a teary mess but still go along with it, swapping our marriage license for divorce papers.

I looked at my phone, silent. I simply replied to the message I had just received: "Why don't you just marry me?"

"Okay."

==============================

"Really?" came the almost instant reply.

I shut off my phone.

Inside, the laughter and chatter continued.

"Alright then! If the missus is that compliant, drinks are on me next month!" one of his friends said.

"Make it three months," Royal replied.

"Deal, deal, deal!" they laughed and joked.

I stumbled out as quickly as I could.

It wasn't until I stepped outside the office building, into the glaring sunshine, that the tears started to fall.

Royal had set his sights on a young girl, not even out of college yet. He set her up in Miami, lavishing her with luxury goods. But she wouldn't let him touch her.

She lived in a 3,800 square foot penthouse, wrapped in bespoke designer outfits, boldly declaring, "I won't be the other woman!"

Royal found it all incredibly entertaining.

This was the third time he was pulling a stunt for her.

The first time, he bragged about our love. I had no idea Cataleya even existed back then. Happily, I posed for countless pictures with him, thrilled when he posted a collage full of them online. Only later did I realize it was set to "Visible to Cataleya only."

The second time, we argued, and he left me stranded on the street. He took pictures of me crying alone and sent them to her. "See? She just can't leave me."

The third time, he wanted a divorce.

My phone buzzed again. I checked it.

"Really?"

"Are you serious?"

"Amaris Freeman."

I wiped my tears and let out a small smile. "Yes, really."

Midas Protocol: Seducing My Rival's Wife Novel Cover
7.2
I sat in the freezing conference room, my knuckles white as I strangled a cheap plastic pen. Outside, Manhattan was weeping in the gray rain, but inside, the air was sterile and dead. I stared at the polished mahogany table, seeing the distorted reflection of a man who hadn't slept in forty-eight hours—a man about to sign his own divorce papers. Across from me, my wife Linda wouldn't even look at me. She was too busy drumming her fingers near a diamond ring that cost more than I had made in the last five years combined. Then the door swung open, and Simon Thorne walked in. The billionaire heir didn't say a word; he just walked behind Linda and placed a heavy, possessive hand on her shoulder, marking her as his. "Let's wrap this up," Simon said, checking his Patek Philippe with the bored tone of a man ordering a coffee he didn't want. Linda finally looked through me like I was a ghost and told me to stop dragging this out. She whispered that I couldn't even afford myself anymore, a physical punch to the gut given I’d lost my job three weeks ago. After I signed, Simon flicked a business card at me, mockingly offering me a job as a doorman for minimum wage. I walked out into the downpour, shivering in a suit I couldn't afford to dry clean. My phone vibrated with a text from my landlord: "Pack your things. Keys by tonight or I’m calling the cops." I stood on the corner of 5th Avenue with exactly $42.18 to my name, watching Simon kiss my wife through the glass wall of the penthouse. I was thirty, homeless, and drowning in a city of lions. I wanted to roar until my throat bled, but I just stood there, a drowned rat in a world of predators. How could I have lost everything so fast? Why was the woman who promised to stay through "for poorer" now leaning into the arms of the man who just humiliated me? Suddenly, my phone screen exploded with a blinding golden light. An app called the Midas Protocol installed itself, declaring poverty a disease and itself the cure. With one tap, a million dollars bypassed a federal hold and hit my account, and a "Nemesis Card" appeared in my digital inventory. I didn't hesitate. I typed Simon Thorne’s name into the vengeance algorithm and hit execute. The game had officially changed.
