The True Heir’s Ex Regrets: I'm The Real Billionaire!
"You are just a poor student," Lana sneered. "Why would I ever marry a loser when I have Cade, the heir of the Mercer Family?"
Dane waited for five years to marry the woman he loved, only to be stood up on the day they were supposed to get their marriage license.
His girlfriend, Lana, didn't just stand him up she accepted a diamond ring from another man.
Lana thought she was upgrading. She thought her new billionaire fiancé could crush Dane like a bug. But there was one massive problem, Cade was a complete fraud.
Dane is the real secret heir of the Mercer Empire. For five years, he secretly poured his billions into Lana's company to make her successful. Now, he's taking it all back.
But as Dane walks away from his toxic ex, he discovers a terrifying truth, the little girl who saved his life ten years ago isn't Lana. It's Mara a beautiful, abused girl currently being dragged to the bed of a notorious mobster by her evil stepmother.
Dane storms the mansion, cripples the mobster, and claims Mara as his own. To save her mother's bankrupt company, he brings her to the city's most elite billionaire banquet.
At the doors, Lana and her fake billionaire try to humiliate them, laughing at Dane's cheap clothes and demanding Mara kneel in the dirt.
Then, the doors open. The CEO of the Mercer Group steps out, ignores the fake heir, and bows deeply at Dane's feet.
"Welcome, Master Mercer."

Chapter: Chapter 149"Stand down, you feral boy," the Patriarch chuckled, his voice dropping back into its usual gravelly rumble, though the edges were completely softened by an immense, undeniable warmth. He waved a dismissive, highly amused hand toward Dane’s aggressive combat posture. "Nobody is threatening your precious heiress. In fact, I am the one who currently needs protection. I believe she was just about to buy my entire estate out from under me and fire my staff."Dane frowned deeply, refusing to lower his guard. He turned his head just a fraction of an inch, keeping his body positioned as a shield, and looked down at Berry over his shoulder.Berry was not trembling. She was not crying. Her chin was held high, her beautiful eyes burning with a fierce, untouchable pride. She reached out, her soft, delicate fingers gently wrapping around Dane’s tightly clenched fist. The absolute second her warm skin made contact with his, the paralyzing terror in Dane's chest instantly vanished."I am perfectly

Chapter: Chapter 148Absolute panic was an entirely foreign concept to a man who had conquered the Earth Grade, yet it was the only thing violently tearing through Dane Mercer’s veins as he obliterated the heavy oak doors of the Patriarch’s study.The massive, reinforced double doors did not simply swing open; they were catastrophically blown off their heavy steel hinges by a sheer, concussive wave of terrifying kinetic energy. The thick wood splintered and shattered, flying across the cavernous room and smashing against the priceless bookshelves.Dane strode through the swirling dust and ruined wood, looking like a god of war who had just descended to exact apocalyptic vengeance.For the first time in his entire adult life, the invincible grandmaster was physically out of breath. His broad chest heaved heavily beneath his crisp white dress shirt. The man whose heart rate had remained perfectly, mathematically flat while dismantling an entire syndicate of elite mercenaries was currently gasping for oxygen

Chapter: Chapter 147Berry leaned slightly forward, resting her hands flat on the edge of the mahogany desk. She met his oppressive, terrifying aura with a fierce, burning gravity of her own, completely refusing to be swallowed by his shadow."Under my sole leadership," Berry continued, her words precise and lethal, "I completely purged the board of every single dissenting, cowardly executive who wanted to play it safe. I restructured the entire corporate hierarchy from the ground up, firing anyone who proved incompetent. And as of midnight last night, after a brutal, six-week negotiation campaign, I finalized the absolute acquisition of a revolutionary synthetic cellular regeneration patent."The Patriarch’s eyes remained locked on the scrolling financial graphs illuminating the tablet screen. He was a master of global markets; he could read and process complex, high-level economic data instantly. The numbers staring back at him were not fabricated projections or hopeful estimates. They were authenticate

Chapter: Chapter 146Berry did not reach for the gold fountain pen resting on the polished mahogany. She did not lower her gaze to the floor in shame, nor did she allow the tears burning at the back of her eyes to spill over her lashes.The profound, agonizing heartbreak that had gripped her chest only seconds ago—the crushing realization that the most powerful man in Dane’s life viewed her as a pathetic, disposable liability—instantly fractured. But it did not break her. Instead, the emotional agony calcified, transforming in a fraction of a second into a spine of absolute, unyielding steel. She looked at the blank check lying on the desk. It was a tiny slip of paper meant to quantify her worth, a cheap bribe designed to erase her existence from the only man she had ever truly loved.The Patriarch sat perfectly still, expecting the inevitable conclusion to his test. He waited for the trembling hands, the desperate, choked sobs, or the indignant, naive speech about how true love could not be bought or mea

Chapter: Chapter 145The Mercer ancestral estate did not look like a home. It looked like an impenetrable, sovereign nation. Acres of perfectly manicured, ancient gardens stretched as far as the eye could see, surrounding a massive, multi-level architectural masterpiece forged from dark stone and reinforced glass. Dozens of highly trained, Earth Grade shadow guards patrolled the perimeter, their lethal auras completely unsuppressed, projecting a terrifying warning to anyone foolish enough to approach.The car came to a smooth halt beneath a massive stone portico. The operative opened her door, gesturing silently toward the entrance.Berry stepped out. Her high heels clicked sharply against the imported marble steps. A pair of silent, elderly but terrifyingly capable servants guided her through the cavernous halls of the estate. The walls were lined with priceless historical artifacts and original masterpieces, but the air was suffocatingly cold. There was no warmth here. There was only absolute power.The

Chapter: Chapter 144The armored black town car idling at the private curb outside Horizon Corp did not belong to Dane.Berry Sterling knew this the absolute second she walked out of the glass revolving doors. Dane always parked exactly three inches from the curb, always stood at a forty-five-degree angle to monitor the street, and always looked at her with a quiet, grounding warmth that instantly erased the stress of her corporate battles. The man currently standing beside the rear door of this vehicle possessed none of those traits.He wore a charcoal grey suit completely devoid of any corporate insignia, and he moved with the lethal, rigid discipline of a high-ranking military operative. He stepped directly into her path, entirely blocking her access to her own waiting vehicle. He did not ask for her identity. He did not offer a polite, deferential greeting. He simply extended a thick, gloved hand, presenting a heavy, cream-colored envelope sealed with dark crimson wax."Miss Sterling," the operative s
