Ninety Days To Break Your Heart

Ninety Days To Break Your Heart

I thought I was living the dream as the wife of a billionaire, until my husband came home at 2 A.M. reeking of expensive Scotch and "Midnight Rose"—the signature perfume of his ex-lover, Lucinda. While I spent my nights alone in the nursery with our sick twins, William was out in the city, making it clear to everyone that our marriage was nothing more than a cold, calculated business merger. When I finally confronted him with the evidence of his infidelity, he didn’t offer an apology. He simply looked at me with disgust and told me I was a "liability" who should stay home and play the part of the perfect mother while he lived his real life with someone else. The humiliation reached its peak at the hospital when his grandfather suffered a massive heart attack. William showed up with Lucinda on his arm, comforting her in front of the entire Sterling clan while his mother publicly mocked me for being a useless gold-digger. Even after William tried to force himself on me in a drunken rage the night before, he had the audacity to treat his mistress like the grieving wife while I was pushed into the shadows. I felt something inside me finally snap. The man I loved had turned into a monster who saw me as an acquisition rather than a human being. I was ready to sign the divorce papers and disappear with nothing but my pride, just to escape the suffocating weight of his indifference. But then, the dying patriarch called me to his bedside and handed me a sword: five percent of the company’s voting shares and a three-month ultimatum. I’m not running away anymore. I’ve decided to stay for ninety days, but not to save a dead marriage. I’m staying to become the one thing William Sterling never saw coming—his most dangerous nightmare.

The name flashed on the dashboard screen visible from the rear seats. William hesitated. He glanced at Mia. She was still looking out the window, but he saw her posture stiffen. He leaned forward and pressed the accept button on the center console control panel. "William!" Lucinda's voice flooded the cabin, amplified by the surround sound. She was sobbing. "Oh god, William, I heard about Arthur! It's terrible!" "Calm down, Lu," William said, his voice instantly shifting. It became soft. Protective. The voice he never used with Mia. "I'm at the hospital already," Lucinda cried. "Eleanor is falling apart. It's so scary here. I need you." "I'm five minutes away," William soothed. "Just stay in the waiting room. Don't worry." "Gavin isn't picking up," she wept. "I feel so alone. You're the only one I can count on, William. Please hurry." Mia turned her head. She looked at the dashboard screen, then at William. Her husband. Comforting his ex-lover. On speakerphone. While his wife sat next to him. "Deep breaths, Lu. I'm almost there," William said. He ended the call. The silence rushed back in, heavier than before. William shifted in his seat. He felt... uncomfortable. He glanced at Mia. She was looking at him. Her face was completely devoid of expression. It was chilling. "She's just scared," William said. He didn't know why he was explaining. "You don't need to explain," Mia said. Her voice was light, airy. "Your priorities have always been very clear." "It's not about priorities. She's fragile," William defended, gripping the leather armrest tightly. "She's practically family." "Yes," Mia said. "Fragile enough to call another woman's husband and cry about how much she needs him." "You're being paranoid." "And you're being a doormat," Mia said. "But that's none of my business anymore." The car pulled up to the Mount Sinai emergency entrance. Before the driver could come around, Mia opened her own door. She stepped out into the humid air. She didn't wait for him. She walked toward the sliding glass doors, her heels clicking a sharp rhythm on the pavement, leaving him alone in the car with the fading echo of Lucinda's voice. ---
