Revenge Looks Good In Gucci
“I have decided not to stay broke and miserable with you, Xavier. Emerald is not your child, and I want a better life for my daughter because love doesn't pay rent.”
Humiliated and ridiculed by Lisa and her lover whom she had brought home during a secret marriage proposal he had planned and streamed live on TikTok at their house, Xavier Lancelot watched broken as the love of his life told the world he isn't the real father of their child.
And just like that, Xavier’s heartbreak went viral. The video of his failed proposal was all over TikTok, viewed millions of times with people laughing at the broke café worker who thought love was enough.
But just when he thought life couldn’t get worse… he found a forgotten lottery ticket in his pocket and won big.
Now wealthy and famous, Xavier is finally rebuilding his life, with the help of Amber, the loyal friend who stood by him when he had nothing. But just as he begins to heal, Lisa shows up again, with their daughter, the same one she once denied him. Demanding her share of his new life.
But this time, Xavier isn’t the one who’ll end up heartbroken. Because what he has planned will break her more than she ever broke him.

Chapter: The One Before The Final Decision The courtyard of Amber’s estate was no longer just tense — it was vibrating with a dangerous electricity that made even the guards keep their hands hovering near their weapons. The echo of Celeste’s voice still lingered in the air, sharp and acidic, and the look on Amber’s face as she stood at the top of the stone steps was the quiet promise of war.Xavier did not move. He stood planted between both women, jaw locked, eyes scanning the estate’s perimeter like he was calculating a thousand risks at once. He didn’t like scenes. He didn’t tolerate ambushes. And he definitely wasn’t going to let a loose-mouthed outsider start a fire on territory he’d sworn to keep safe.Antonio took one slow step forward. “Celeste,” he growled under his breath, “get back in the car—”“Don’t you dare talk to me like I’m the problem,” she hissed, throwing him a glare. “I warned you this was a bad idea. I told you we should have waited. But no— you just had to run straight to Xavier, like he’s the only one w

Chapter: Forced Confession The guards pulled back but didn’t disperse. They lingered around the courtyard like a pack waiting for Xavier’s next order. No one breathed freely. No one blinked too long. The air between all four of them was thick enough to slice.Xavier stood in front of Antonio, the tension between them bordering on physical. “Start talking,” he said. “And don’t test my patience with selective details.”Antonio didn’t answer immediately. His eyes flicked between Xavier, Amber, then Celeste—who remained by the gate, rigid, silent, controlled only by the need not to break again in their presence.Xavier took one step forward. “I asked you a question.”Antonio exhaled through clenched teeth. “Fine. You want the truth? You’ll get it.”Amber folded her arms, jaw locked. “About time.”Celeste didn’t move. She stayed outside the gate, watching, unreadable, yet every nerve in her body was braced—because she knew whatever Antonio said next would drag her name into the center of a storm she didn’t create.A

Chapter: THE BLOW-UP Antonio had barely gotten the first sentence out before Celeste’s patience finally snapped.“Before New York?” she repeated, her voice shaking with the kind of anger that had been building since the instant her passport was flagged in Heathrow. “You’re starting from ‘before New York’ when I’ve been dragged across borders, detained, questioned, embarrassed, and now told to stand outside like a stray?”Amber’s lips curved. Not kindly. “If the shoe fits.”Celeste turned slowly toward her.Xavier muttered, “Amber—”“Don’t ‘Amber’ me,” she cut in, eyes fixed on Celeste. “I’ve watched this woman circle Antonio like a shadow for months. Every time trouble touches him, somehow she’s in the picture. You want me to act blind now?”Celeste didn’t laugh—she scoffed. “You think I enjoy being anywhere near him? You think I flew across the world because I like being part of your little drama-filled circle?”“This is not a circle,” Amber said sharply. “This is my estate. My security. My responsibilit

Chapter: Distractions“Sir, something’s happening at the east entrance. You need to see this now.”The guard’s voice cut through the hallway like a blade. Xavier didn’t move at first; his eyes stayed locked on Antonio, who still looked like a man hanging onto the last thread of patience he had left. But the urgency in the guard’s face made Xavier shift.Amber pushed past the guard before Xavier could respond. “What now?” Her irritation sharpened every word. “Your estate is turning into a circus, Xavier.”Xavier followed her, and Antonio trailed behind them despite the earlier warning not to move. No one addressed him; the tension had become its own breathing thing.They turned the corner toward the east entrance—then everything snapped into focus.Celeste.Standing outside the gate like a storm that had found legs.She wasn’t just arguing with the guards; she was practically ready to tear the gate off the hinges if that’s what it took to get inside. Her voice was raised, firm, unfiltered—demanding that the

Chapter: Say It With Your Chest Amber’s heels hit the marble before Xavier even finished his sentence. A sound that told the room she had heard enough even before stepping inside.Antonio turned slightly as she entered the atrium, but Amber didn’t spare him a glance at first. She looked at Xavier directly like she was confirming something she already knew.Then she finally faced Antonio.Her expression didn’t hold anger. It held precision. A different kind of heat—controlled, intelligent, dangerous.“Good,” Amber said, adjusting the sleeve of her robe like she had walked into a board meeting, not a standoff. “You’re still here. Saves me the trouble of dragging you back.”Antonio straightened. “I didn’t come here for you.”“And yet,” Amber replied, “you’re on my property.”“That wasn’t your problem ten minutes ago,” Antonio snapped. “I just want to see my daughter.”Amber tilted her head. “And I want a world without incompetent men. Look how life disappoints us both.”Antonio’s jaw locked. “Don’t start with—”“I’m no

Chapter: You Don't Get To Demand Anything HereAmber’s estate did not welcome unexpected visitors. The gates alone stood like a verdict—silent, fortified, and far from forgiving. Antonio stepped out of the black sedan the moment it stopped, posture rigid, eyes fixed on the security point as though he intended to force his way through by sheer will.He didn’t get the chance because Xavier was already outside. He looked prepared, like someone who had been counting down the minutes to this confrontation.Antonio’s jaw tightened. “Where is she?”Xavier didn’t blink. “Behind a gate you’re not walking through.”Antonio took a step forward, and Xavier raised a hand, not a threat, just a warning. “Don’t test me today.”“I came to see my daughter,” Antonio said, voice lowered, steady. “That’s all.”“You came to confirm the damage you caused without telling me,” Xavier corrected. “And you’re going to start with that.”Antonio let out a breath he’d been holding since New York. “Xavier, I don’t have time for this.”“You will make time,” Xavie

His brother claimed his company, his wealth, and even his deceitful wife. But fate wasn’t finished with Martin. Found by a local fisherman and his daughter, he woke up from a month-long coma...weak, broken and stripped of his memory. Slowly, he rebuilt himself into a man unrecognizable to the world he left behind.
Now, stronger than ever, he returns for vengeance.
They say blood is thicker than water… but what happens when blood betrays you?

Chapter: The Longest Two Hours Martin grabbed it so fast he nearly dropped it.Same Unknown number."One hour fifty-three minutes. Seven minutes left. She's walking back now. You'll know soon enough if you made the right choice."Martin stared at the message. The mysterious texter was watching Taylor. Tracking her. Following her. Who were they? Before he could respond, footsteps echoed in the hallway outside. Slow. Hesitant.They stopped at his door.Martin held his breath before he opened the door.Taylor stood there, her eyes red and swollen. Her hair was messy. She'd been crying."I came back," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.Martin stepped aside. She walked in slowly, like she was entering a stranger's home. She sat on the chair by the window. Martin closed the door and stood across from her, giving her space.Silence stretched between them."I walked for two hours," Taylor finally said. "Just walked. Through the city. Didn't even know where I was going." She looked up at him. "I kept thinking about

Chapter: Male Gold-digger Martin sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the clock on the wall. Seven forty-three PM.Taylor had been gone for an hour and seventeen minutes.Forty-three minutes left.His phone sat on the nightstand, silent. No calls. No texts. Nothing.Martin pressed his palms against his eyes, trying to calm his racing thoughts. What if she'd already made the call? What if she was with Cole right now, telling him everything? What if…?A flash of memory hit him, sudden and sharp.***Aubrey stood in the sunlight streaming through the café window, laughing at something he'd said. She was beautiful and radiant. Everything Martin wasn't. "You're staring," she said, her smile teasing. "Can't help it," Martin replied, his voice softer than usual. "You're... you're stunning."She reached across the table and took his hand. Her skin was warm and delicate. "My parents are going to hate you, you know."Martin's stomach dropped. "What?" "They think I should marry someone from our world. Old money.

Chapter: Will She Betray Him?Taylor, wait..." "No." She backed toward the door. "I need space. I need to think. I need to not be in this room with you right now." "Where are you going?" "I don't know! Anywhere!" She reached for the door handle, then stopped. Her voice dropped to barely above a whisper. "Are you dangerous?" The question hit Martin like a punch to the gut. "What?" "Are you dangerous?" Taylor turned to look at him, and for the first time since he'd known her, he saw fear in her eyes. Fear of him."You said someone tried to kill you. You said you don't remember who, but what if they had a reason? What if Martin Luther was a bad man? What if whoever tried to kill you did it because you deserved it?" "I didn't deserve to die." "You don't know that, you said so yourself that your memory is incomplete!" Tears streamed down her face now. "I pulled a man from a river. A man with bullet wounds. A man who was left for dead. And now you're telling me that man was a billionaire CEO who someone w

Chapter: The Dead Man's Confession The cheap lodge felt smaller than usual. Martin sat on the edge of the bed, hands clasped between his knees. Taylor stood by the window, arms crossed, waiting. "I'm listening," she said. Her voice was cold. "Start talking."Martin took a breath. "My name isn't Ryan." "I figured that much. My father gave you that name because you didn't remember yours. "My real name is Martin Luther."The silence that followed was deafening. Taylor didn't move. Didn't blink. Just stared at him like he'd grown a second head. "Say that again," she whispered. "Martin Luther. The CEO who died two years ago. The man whose company Cole Luther now runs." Martin looked up at her. "I'm not dead, obviously."Taylor's laugh came out sharp, disbelieving. "You're insane." "I know how it sounds, but..." "No, you don't!" She spun to face him fully. ;"You must think I'm a fool if this is all you could come up with. You're telling me you're a dead billionaire CEO? The same Martin Luther whose death was all o

Chapter: Caught Red-handed Martin checked the clock on the wall. Twelve twenty, Cole was at lunch with Taylor as usual. The security guards had just entered the CCTV room. He had maybe thirty minutes to do what he had planned.Two weeks, that's how long he'd been studying Luther Enterprises. When employees arrived. When they left. Which cameras covered what angles. When the blind spots appeared. He'd written everything in a notebook hidden in his locker. Security shift changes at two PM. Cole's lunch schedule, always the same restaurant everyday. The names of businessmen Cole met with. Patterns everywhere.His memory flickered more each day. Last night he'd dreamed of signing contracts in that office. The week before, he remembered the conference room at twelve. Faces came back in pieces, but names stayed just out of reach. But the big questions remained buried. That hunting trip. The betrayal and why they wanted him dead. He'd searched everywhere for answers. Storage rooms. Archives. Old filing cabinets in th

Chapter: Lunch With the Devil"Or what?" Cole smiled. "You'll report me? To who? HR? I own HR. The board? I control the board. My wife? She'd laugh at you." He leaned closer. "You have no power here, Taylor. The sooner you accept that, the easier this will be."Taylor's eyes burned with unshed tears of rage and frustration. "Move."Cole studied her for a long moment, then stepped aside with a mock bow. "By all means. Run to the bathroom. Collect yourself. But remember, you still have to come back to this table. And after lunch, you still have to come back to my office."Taylor pushed past him and fled the private room. In the main dining area, she stumbled toward the bathroom, her vision blurring. She locked herself in a stall and finally let the tears fall.Her phone. Where was her phone? She needed to call Ryan. To get out of here. Then she remembered. Cole had taken it. Still had it. A knock on the bathroom door made her jump."Miss?" A female voice. "Are you alright?"Taylor wiped her eyes quickly and stepped
