Adrian Kane sat in silence as his wife’s voice sliced through the air. "You are nothing but a gold digger. Sign the damn papers, Adrian. I’m done clothing and feeding you." He stared at her, the faintest smirk playing at the corner of his lips. She didn’t know. Not about the penthouse they were standing in, not about the company logo stitched into her designer dress, his company’s logo. And definitely not about the fact that the man she’d been sleeping with had been losing millions to him for months. Adrian picked up the pen. “Oh, Selena…” he whispered, signing the papers. “You have no idea what you’ve just done.” Ten years of lies. One ruthless betrayal. And a comeback that will shatter everything. Adrian Kane spent a decade living as a nobody beside the woman he thought he loved.

Now, with a new wife at his side and the truth in his hands, Adrian will dismantle the world his ex-wife thought she ruled. But in this game of power, love, and betrayal… even billionaires aren’t safe from heartbreak.
