I Signed the Divorce Papers and Married His Rival

In the fifth year of my marriage to Corey, rumors spread about a girl he was secretly seeing at a hotel, and everyone found out. To avoid being labeled as "the other woman," Corey presented me with divorce papers. He said, "Aura's father once helped me, and on his deathbed, he asked me to take care of Aura. Now that this has come out, I can't just leave her to deal with it alone." Over the years, Aura was always Corey's priority. In a previous life, when I heard those words, I was shattered and refused to divorce. I ended up with severe depression, and because Aura once casually remarked, "She doesn't look sick to me," Corey thought I was pretending, believing I was playing hard to get. He ensnared me in a scandal and filed for divorce. It was then I realized I could never compete with a debt of gratitude. In my desperation, I attempted suicide. But now, as I opened my eyes again, I signed the divorce papers without a second thought.

Over the years, Aura was always Corey's priority. In a previous life, when I heard those words, I was shattered and refused to divorce. I ended up with severe depression, and because Aura once casually remarked, "She doesn't look sick to me," Corey thought I was pretending, believing I was playing hard to get. He ensnared me in a scandal and filed for divorce. It was then I realized I could never compete with a debt of gratitude. In my desperation, I attempted suicide.

But now, as I opened my eyes again, I signed the divorce papers without a second thought.

"After this all settles down, why don't we get back together, Nadia?" Corey asked as I sat on a stone bench in the manor’s garden, my mind drifting. Three hours earlier, the tabloids had revealed Aura as Corey's alleged mistress, and the internet was abuzz, calling her a homewrecker for interfering in our marriage.

Corey’s reputation as a dedicated husband crumbled, and Lopez Corp’s stocks were shaky. Last time, when Corey brought divorce papers to me, I was so angry I uprooted every rose he'd planted for me in the garden, demanding to know the truth about him and Aura. Even though she was just his mentor’s daughter, he chose to sacrifice me because he didn't want Aura's depression to worsen. What Corey didn't know is that during that time of public chaos, I was also diagnosed with moderate depression.

“Nadia,” Corey called me again, pulling me back from my thoughts. I looked down at the divorce papers on the stone table. He knelt at my feet, his earnest eyes searching mine, his warm hand enveloping mine with a persuasive tone. “Nadia, if not for me, please do it?”

"We’ll announce that our marriage has been just a name for over a year and that we’ve been planning to divorce, but just hadn’t found the right moment." I remained silent as Aura, standing behind him in a white vintage-style dress with Corey’s coat draped over her shoulders, appeared pale, her eyes rimmed with red.

"Nadia, please help me," Aura begged. "My mother committed suicide because of online torment and depression. I don't want to follow her path. Nadia, I’m pleading with you..." She tried to kneel, but Corey quickly stood, catching her and holding her protectively. His expression turned stern as he scolded her softly, “What are you doing?”

Aura hesitated, her voice fragile and tearful as she lowered her gaze. “I just want Nadia to feel better about this.”

Corey’s eyes filled with irritation as he turned back to me, the previous warmth gone. “Nadia, I didn’t come here to ask for your opinion.”

“I’ve made my decision on this matter. If you’re not willing to divorce, then don’t blame me—”

I met his gaze calmly, cutting his words off. I knew what he was going to say. He would say, “Nadia, you know I have ways to make you sign those papers willingly. If it comes to a divorce trial, you won’t stand a chance against Lopez Corp’s lawyers.”

In my previous life, those were his exact words, and I ended up framed, with fabricated evidence of infidelity staged with male models. Overnight, I became the unfaithful wife, condemned by public opinion, while Corey and Aura played the innocent victims.

"I can sign, but you have to agree to one thing." After a long pause, I finally spoke.

Discarded Bride: The True Heiress Returns

For twenty years, I lived as the adopted daughter of the wealthy Hill family. But today, they forced me to sign a severance agreement and kicked me out so their precious biological daughter, Malia, could marry my fiancé. To ruin me completely, they framed me for stealing Malia's engagement bracelet, threatening me with prison. I calmly exposed the "sapphire" as cheap glass, then rolled up my sleeves to show the reporters my scarred, punctured arms. For two decades, I wasn't a daughter. I was Malia's living blood and bone marrow bank. They drained my health to keep her alive, even ordering doctors to ignore my failing organs just so she could attend a gala. "Take this million dollars and shut your mouth," my adoptive father sneered, throwing a check at my feet. My ex-fiancé looked at me with disgust, and Malia screamed that I was a crazy, vindictive liar. They had stolen my life and my health, yet they still looked down on me like I was garbage. I ripped the check into pieces and threw it in their faces. Just as they ordered the butler to drag me out, a group of men in black suits shattered the chaos. The heir of the untouchable Montgomery dynasty stepped through the door, ignoring the Hills' fawning, and handed me a DNA report. I wasn't a disposable blood bag. I was the long-lost true heiress of old New York money. And now, I was going to take back everything they stole from me.

The elevator doors hissed shut, sealing Carter inside the steel box that would carry him down to the waiting limousine. Tokyo. He would be gone for forty-eight hours. I pressed my hand against the cold glass of the penthouse window, watching the blizzard swallow the Manhattan skyline. The condensation under my palm felt like the only real thing left in a world that was rapidly dissolving. "He’s gone to build the empire, Lilah. We must do our part here." Sasha’s voice didn't come from behind me; it seemed to materialize inside my head. I turned. She stood by the kitchen island, a silhouette against the sterile white marble, holding my bottle of prenatal vitamins upside down over the garbage disposal. The rattle of pills hitting the metal blades sounded like hail on a tin roof.

Shattered Vows: Falling For His Worst Enemy

For three years, I played the perfect, docile wife to Brendon Jimenez, desperate for the real family I never had as an orphan. But during a high-society gala, I peeked through a cracked door and caught him sleeping with my best friend. When I packed my cheap canvas bag to leave the penthouse, my mother-in-law blocked the door. She dumped my clothes on the marble floor, called me a stray dog, and slapped me so hard my mouth bled. Brendon just stood there, watching his mother humiliate me. To keep me trapped as his perfect public prop, he even faked his mother's heart attack in a VIP hospital suite. "Get on your knees. Kneel down right now and beg my mother for forgiveness until she decides to accept it." I gave them my youth and unconditional loyalty, only to realize this prestigious old-money family was nothing but a rotting corpse built on dirty secrets. I didn't cry, and I certainly didn't drop to my knees. Instead, I pulled out my phone right in front of him and called my lawyer. "File for an at-fault divorce. I have proof of his infidelity with Kaelynn Hudson. I want him ruined." Then, I touched the matte black card hidden deep in my clutch. It belonged to Kile Barrett, the ruthless billionaire shark my husband feared most, and I was going to use him to tear the Jimenez family apart.
