My Wife Let My Mother Die—Now I'm the Billionaire King
“My mother is dying! I'm begging you, please lend me the money for her emergency surgery. I'll sign any IOU, I’ll work twenty hours a day to pay you back!"
Julia didn't spare a single glance at the man barking at her feet.
“I've already covered more than enough of your mother's bills. Don't push your luck. I don't have a single moment to waste on these sob stories.”
*
He sacrificed everything for love, only to be trampled over…
Humiliated by his wife, despised by his in-laws, and treated like a servant despite sacrificing everything for the woman he loved, Harry Kipling reached his breaking point when she refused to pay for his mother's surgery, while showering her new fiancé with company shares, gifts, and attention.
When all hope seemed lost, destiny had one final surprise.
The forgotten thousand-dollar investment he made years ago has made him the owner of Horizon Enterprises, the company hailed as the newest multi-billion-dollar miracle— making him one of the richest men in the country overnight.
Now, the submissive husband is gone. As the city gathers to welcome the mysterious, legendary new tycoon, Julia and her family are about to realize that the man they kicked into the mud is the same God of Wealth they are begging to meet.

Chapter: Chapter 12
The usher hurried back down the center aisle, holding the midnight-black card with both hands as if it were a priceless holy relic. He handed it back to the host on stage, whispering something into her ear with a face that had turned completely pale from pure shock.The host’s eyes widened to the size of saucers. She cleared her throat quickly, her hand shaking as she raised her microphone. "Ladies and gentlemen... after a detailed digital inspection through our main terminal, I hereby officially announce that this gentleman's assets have successfully passed our verification process with flying colors! His capital is completely valid!"Julia felt like someone had just poured a bucket of water directly over her head. Her mind reeled. She absolutely did not believe it! She stepped out into the aisle, screaming at the top of her lungs, "No! That is completely impossible! It's a glitch in your system! He is a delivery driver who steals out of my pockets. My question about his assets s

Chapter: Chapter 11
Julia was completely overtaken by jealousy while she looked at Nancy’s stunning beauty, while also being confused why she was vouching for a loser like Harry. She let out a loud, mocking sneer that echoed through the front rows. “Don't think you're all that just because you showed up in a fancy, expensive car! Do you even have a clue how much this idiot just bid? Thirty million dollars! That’s more money than a successful company makes in a whole fiscal year. What on earth makes you think you have the right to vouch for a street rat?"Derek joined in, stepping forward to question Nancy with a smirk. "Exactly. Who do you think you are, his new mommy? You're going to bankrupt yourself trying to protect a fraudster."The crowd began to whisper uncomfortably, wondering who this mysterious woman was. But before the murmurs could spread, Kirk Beckham stood up from the front-row VIP section. He was a well-known billionaire from a major tech conglomerate. He looked at Julia and Derek w

Chapter: Chapter 10
Derek felt deeply humiliated that a live-in son-in-law was looking down on him. He stood up and puffed out his chest, yelling arrogantly, "You arrogant parasite! Do you even know who you are dealing with?! My family is the prestigious Jameson clan! We have powerful connections on both sides of the law… you can imagine how easily an extremely wealthy family can crush a beggar like you!"Determined to crush this pest once and for all, Derek quickly dialed his father’s private number, glaring at Harry.Ring... ring... click.The line went dead. Harry let out a soft chuckle from the front row, shaking his head, which made Derek’s blood boil even hotter. While he dialled for a second attempt, Derek's father was sitting in a high-level board meeting. The old man saw his useless youngest son's name flashing on the screen. Having little regard for his gold-digging youngest son who did nothing but waste money, the father immediately hung up the phone.Derek’s hands began to sweat. He tried

"Is there really no one else who wishes to uncover the hidden secrets of this imperial ring? This treasure has even caught the attention of wealthy overseas collectors! Three million going once..."An absolute silence fell over the grand room.Derek smirked, shouting out proudly, "Just call it, host! No one else here has the guts or the money!"Julia turned around, confident that the ring was already going to be theirs now. After all, her loser husband turned out to be exactly that– a sore loser. "You came all the way to a luxury auction, and haven't bid a single cent on a single thing all night! And you still try to claim you're not here looking for a minor job to fill your stomach? What a joke!"Harry shot a cold glance back at her. Then, his eyes focused on the antique ring sitting inside the glass case. Something about that ancient crest felt familiar, but he couldn't figure out what.The Yorvenn clan… he remembered the name from his mother's bedtime stories. It was the same fa

Chapter: Chapter 9 Part-1
The host was a young woman, dressed in a black formal jacket and a matching pencil skirt. She smiled brightly under the stage lights and announced the very first lot of the evening. "Ladies and gentlemen, we will begin tonight with a stunning, limited-edition luxury chronograph watch! The starting bid is a modest $10,000, with minimum bidding increments of $1000!"Julia’s eyes instantly sparkled, she absolutely loved high-end luxury items like this to show off to her friends.Seeing her excitement, Derek raised his bidding paddle high into the air without missing a single beat. He glared at Harry, letting out a loud sneer. "Look at the pathetic scum! He can't even afford his own mother's emergency surgery fees, yet actually shows up to a high-class auction just to window-shop and pretend he belongs here!"Harry raised an eyebrow, completely unbothered. He had a massive 1.5 billion dollars sitting idle in his liquid bank account, not to mention the unlimited 10 billion dollar black c

Chapter: Chapter 8 Part-2
Julia and Derek burst into a mocking laughter, enjoying Harry's humiliation while expecting Nancy to thank them and run away. After all, they were doing this naive girl a huge favour. But on the contrary, her face turned serious. She stepped in front of Harry, “I trust Mr. Kipling completely.” Nancy was going to say more, Harry didn't want to waste another second on them. He gave her a nod, and they walked right past the stunned couple, entering the grand venue. The auction hall was filled with hundreds of velvet seats. Harry and Nancy took their seats in the front-row central VIP area, a section reserved exclusively for the most powerful titans of the nation. “Boss, the event is about to begin. I need to go backstage right now to coordinate with the grand organizers regarding your upcoming keynote speech. Please excuse me for a moment." Harry nodded calmly. "Go ahead." Meanwhile, Julia and Derek had been guided by the ushers to the cheap, lower-tier left rear section of the
