Chapter 1

After Gabriel stood me up three times, I decided to go to the cinema alone to catch *The Avengers 2*. Halfway through the film, I had to use the restroom, and from the next stall, I heard unmistakable sounds of intimacy.

The soft moans, although faint, were undeniable. I frowned, eager to leave quickly. From the adjoining stall, a woman teased playfully, "Is your wife this adventurous?"

"A woman like her probably just lies there, not moving an inch," the man replied, his voice dripping with desire.

I knew that voice—it was my husband, Gabriel!

My mind went blank, and my legs turned to jelly, causing me to collapse onto the toilet seat. The woman continued breathlessly, "Next time we work out together, take a picture of her lying there like a log. Imagine how much fun that would be."

Amidst the rhythmic sounds, Gabriel responded in a low tone, "Alright."

I stood in front of the thin stall door, my hand rising and falling helplessly multiple times. I didn't dare confront it; I couldn't handle the truth.

Gabriel had ditched me three times, soothingly claiming that work was overwhelming and he couldn't find the time to be with me. He even bought me a designer handbag as an apology. I had started to reflect on myself—it’s perfectly fine to watch a movie alone. His career was mostly for my benefit, and I should be more independent.

Yet here he was, claiming to be so busy, now with another woman in the cinema, unable to control himself even in the restroom.

The crashing sounds quickened, and the moaning grew louder. My heart felt like it was splitting open; a suffocating sensation swept over me like a tide. I opened my mouth mechanically, but no air filled my lungs.

Finally, Gabriel let out a satisfied sigh, and the movement in the stall ceased. The woman teased, "Oh look at you, so eager and wild. You've ripped my dress—how am I supposed to face anyone now?"

Gabriel chuckled, "Wear mine. It’s got your scent all over it."

"Fine, let's see how you explain this to your wife when you get home."

"I’ll just say I fell asleep at the office, and it went missing."

"You don't even bother to lie well. Let’s see if she buys it."

"Her? She never questions me. I could tell her the company went under, and she'd just grit her teeth and support me."

As they got themselves together, they continued their playful banter. Outside the door, I stood, teeth clenched, fists tight, eyes stinging, yet no tears came. I stared at that door, replaying countless confrontations with Gabriel in my mind like a slideshow.

Blood rushed to my head, a mix of sadness and anger demanding release. I wanted to hit him, scream at him, burst in there and tear him apart, demand to know how he could betray me. How could he?

The lock clicked open, and in that last moment, the breath I'd been holding suddenly escaped. I fled, overwhelmed by defeat.

Neglected Wife: Hidden Heiress's Cold Revenge

I stood in the pouring rain at my father-in-law's funeral, the heels of my black pumps sinking into the mud. I was Mrs. Vargas, the wife of New York's most powerful billionaire, yet I was standing at the edge of the crowd like a forgotten statue. Ten feet away, under the dry shelter of the family tent, my husband Hayes held another woman against his chest. It wasn't me he was whispering comfort to; it was Felicity, his late brother's widow and childhood sweetheart. The humiliation didn't end at the cemetery. Hayes moved Felicity and her son into our home, relegating me to the guest wing while she took over the primary suites. He watched silently as her son smashed the only photograph of my deceased parents, then demanded I apologize for "scaring" the boy with my reaction. When Felicity's negligence ruined a twelve-million-dollar family heirloom, Hayes had the audacity to ask me to use my own savings to buy her a "consolation" engagement ring. He treated me like a parasite, never realizing I was a brilliant scientist with a hidden fortune and three patents to my name. I realized then that our three-year marriage was a hollow farce. Hayes had never even touched me, claiming he wanted to "remain pure" for his memory of Felicity. I was nothing more than a business merger, a smudge on the lens of the perfect family portrait he was building with another man's widow. The breaking point came during a lethal blizzard. Hayes promised to accompany me to my family's mandatory gala-a tradition where my absence meant a death sentence. But at the last second, he stood me up to stay home and tend to Felicity's stubbed toe. Left alone to face the wrath of the Santos Matriarch, I was forced to kneel in the freezing snow as punishment until my lungs began to fail and my vision blurred. Just as the darkness started to take me, a black Maybach smashed through the iron gates. My exiled brother, the man the world calls "The Wolf," stepped out of the storm to reclaim what Hayes had discarded. Hayes thought I was a helpless doll who couldn't survive a day without his trust fund, but he's about to find out what happens when you let a Santos daughter freeze.

Reborn Surgeon: The Billionaire’s Secret Obsession

Standing on the edge of a limestone quarry in the pouring rain, I thought we were just having another family argument. Then my mother, Ardell, screamed that I’d let the life insurance lapse, and my brother, Hakeem, stepped out of the shadows with a cold, calculating look in his eyes. I told them I knew the truth—that Hakeem had cut the brake lines on my father’s car—but they didn't flinch. Instead, Hakeem shoved me hard, sending me tumbling into the abyss. I hit a jagged ledge thirty feet down, the sound of my spine snapping like a dry branch echoing through the rain. As I lay paralyzed and broken, my mother watched from above, asking if I was dead yet, before Hakeem whistled for the starving wild dogs that lived in the quarry floor. "Nature will clean up the mess," Hakeem said, walking away while the first set of teeth sank into my throat. The agony was a tidal wave, but the rage was hotter, a nuclear hatred for the family that stole my future and the daughter I’d never see grow up. I died in that dirt, consumed by fire and teeth, wondering how a mother could choose a car payment over her own child's life. But then, I gasped for air, sitting bolt upright in my old trailer bedroom. I looked at the calendar: May 12, 2014. I was seventeen again, but I wasn't the same girl. Inside this malnourished body was the mind of a world-class trauma surgeon and the elite hacker known as 'Phantom.' This time, I wasn't going to the quarry; I was going for their throats.
