Divine Doctor

Elliot Carter thought he had left Harrison Creek behind for good. The small Appalachian town, steeped in shadows and secrets, was a place of pain—the memory of his mother’s tragic death and Lily Rose’s haunting disappearance lingering for years. It had been 20 years since Lily vanished without a trace, and now, Elliot is drawn back to the place he swore to escape. The call comes: his father, Dr. Robert Carter, is dying. Elliot returns to Harrison Creek, but it’s not just his father who pulls him back. The mystery of Lily’s disappearance has never let him go. As a child, he accepted the town’s story—that Lily was simply forgotten—but now, as an adult, Elliot knows better. The town hides something far darker. Dr. Robert Carter, the town’s respected doctor, has been hiding something. Elliot begins to unravel cryptic clues suggesting his father’s involvement in Lily’s case is deeper—and more sinister—than anyone could have guessed. With the help of Vera Larkin, a childhood friend turned journalist, Elliot uncovers a web of lies and moral corruption. The more he digs, the more the townspeople close ranks, and the more violent the threats become. Elliot soon discovers the unthinkable: Lily’s disappearance wasn’t an accident—it was planned. And the man responsible for silencing her forever was none other than his own father. As the investigation spirals, Elliot must confront a chilling truth: his father’s dark past may cost him everything, including his own soul. Some truths are better left buried. But in Harrison Creek, the truth always finds a way to surface.

Once, he believed Forex trading would save his family. Instead, it destroyed him. Plagued by constant losses and sleepless nights, he watched his savings vanish trade after trade, until the final blow came in the form of a phone call that shattered his world. His young daughter had been rushed to the hospital. The doctor’ s verdict was merciless—without an immediate and expensive surgery, she would not survive. With nothing left but desperation, he ran home to tell his wife, hoping they would face the storm together. Instead, he was greeted with divorce papers. Blinded by greed and seduced by a rich and powerful man, she chose wealth over family, even as their child lay on the edge of death. Broken and forced to sign the divorce, he stumbled out of the house, his life reduced to nothing. Fate nearly claimed him moments later when a speeding car almost ended it all. But instead of death, something unimaginable awakened within him. A Forex Trading System. A voice in his mind. A guide beyond human logic. With the last money he possessed, he placed one final trade—then another. Against all odds, the market obeyed. Profits surged. Losses vanished. In a matter of days, the man who had lost everything rose from ruin to wealth. He rushed back to the hospital, paid for his daughter’s surgery in full, and saved her life. But that was only the beginning. Under the system’s guidance, he conquered the financial world, rising from a broken trader to a billionaire feared and respected across global markets. And when success finally crowned him, the woman who once abandoned him returned—begging for forgiveness. Will he accept her back? Or will he move on with his life and find someone better?

--- Title: After My Murder I Returned Blurb: I died once. Like, actually died. Knife in my ribs. Parking garage. My girlfriend, Melanie Rivers, watching while the guy she was sleeping with — Adonis Daniels — did it. All for money. Money I gave her. So, uh, imagine my surprise when I wake up... ten years earlier. Two weeks before I ever meet Melanie. I remember everything. Every bad choice. Every dollar I wasted. Every call from my dad, Damien Reed, that I ignored. Every time my mom, Sophia, cried and I wasn’t there. Every time my best friend, Jonah Carter, tried to save me and I told him to stay out of it. This time? I’m not making the same mistakes. I put the 2M into NexPay — the startup I screwed over last time. Now I’m the youngest self-made billionaire in the country. CEO of Reed Capital Group. Forbes cover. The whole thing. And Melanie? Adonis? Her stepdad Douglas who, uh, ordered the hit? They’re broke. And I own their debt. But it’s not just revenge. It’s Damien, who’s secretly sick and I only have one chance to save him. It’s Sophia, who I lost for seven years because I was too proud to come home. It’s Jonah, who drank himself to death cleaning up my messes last time. It’s... Amber Evans. An ER doctor who’s nothing like Melanie, and I have no idea how to be normal around someone who’s actually good for me. So yeah. Second life. Second pulse. Last time, I died for love. This time? I’m making them earn it. Tags: #Rebirth #Revenge #Billionaire #FamilyDrama #SecondChance #FaceSlap #Urban #MaleLead #NoHarem
