Introduction

"You are mine. You can't run away from me!"
"I succeed because I don't trust men."

Viola, a country girl goes to New York alone for true love, but her beloved husband Orlando betrays her. Penniless, she took the divorce agreement and left this sad place.

A few years later, the country girl turned into a billionaire, and her ex-husband tried to get back together with her.

Chapter 1

Viola didn't sleep well.

She felt like she was being pressed down by someone and almost couldn't breathe.

There was also heavy and rapid breathing in her ear, and then, she felt a sharp pain in her body.

Viola realized something. She opened her eyes in horror and vaguely saw a man above her.

"Orlando, is that ... you?"

The man let out a soft voice, "Em." Then he didn't say anything more. Viola could smell alcohol on his body.

Viola breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the familiar voice. With Orlando's actions, she was also turned on and unconsciously let out a charming sound.

Orlando was getting fiercer and fiercer. Viola gritted her teeth and endured the pain. She was immersed in the sexual enjoyment he brought her and felt she was in the clouds.

Orlando was finally willing to have sex with her after three years of marriage!

Orlando's grandfather forced him to marry her back then, so he never treated her nicely.

This time, no matter why, he entered her room.

And she was very happy about that!

Two hours later, accompanied by a heavy groan, Orlando lay on her body tiredly. The moonlight outside the French window outlined his perfect figure proportions.

Viola listened to his fast heartbeat. It was so real, but it was like a dream.

If it was really a dream, she would rather never wake up.

She wrapped her arms around the back of his neck with an obsessed expression and gasped after the intense sex, "Orlando... Orlando, I really..."

She wanted to say "I really love you." Before she could say these words, she heard Orlando mutter in a low voice.

"Anaya..."

Viola froze on the spot.

The tip of her heart trembled. She felt all the blood in her body flow backward.

Anaya's full name was Anaya Callis. She was Orlando's first love. She had been abroad because of Orlando's grandfather.

But just yesterday, Anaya returned.

Moreover, Anaya sent Viola a provocative message.

"Viola, I'm back. You have no place in the Caffrey family.

"Orlando and I grew up together. Do you really think that you can replace me with these few years? Get lost and go back to the orphanage. That's where you should stay.

"You don't know how much Orlando loves me, right? Even if he lies on your bed, he will definitely call me by my name. And you only deserve to be my substitute. Viola, does this feel good?"

Substitute?

Viola was the granddaughter-in-law chosen by Orlando's grandfather, the legitimate Mrs. Caffrey. She was not anyone's substitute!

Beside her ear, Orlando was still muttering, "Anaya, Anaya."

The sarcastic text messages kept echoing in her mind, showing how much she deceived herself!

Tears suddenly flowed out uncontrollably. Viola clenched her fists tightly, her entire body trembling from the pressure.

All these years, she had been careful and obedient. She quit her job and wholeheartedly played the role of Orlando's perfect wife.

Viola's mother-in-law and sister-in-law disdained her unknown background. They preferred girls from rich families and always humiliated Viola. In case she brought Orlando any trouble, she bore all these by herself.

Wasn't she humble enough? Just to get his love?

Why did he have to ruthlessly tear and trample on the last bit of her self-esteem?

The night was exceptionally long.

Viola opened her eyes and didn't sleep for the whole night.

...

The next morning, Orlando was awakened by the dazzling sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

He rubbed his eyebrows and opened his eyes to see Viola sitting in front of the dressing table with her back to him.

The absurd thing from last night suddenly flashed through his mind. He realized something. He frowned deeply, and anger appeared in his heart.

Although Viola had her back to him, she could clearly feel Orlando's anger.

She continued to apply skincare products as if nothing had happened, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and she was pulled up.

The skincare products in her hands fell to the ground, the glass bottle was smashed into pieces, and the white cream sprinkled all over the ground.

Viola raised her head and glared at Orlando angrily, but when she met Orlando's furious and disgusted eyes, her heart trembled uncontrollably.

"You used such a despicable method like drugging me to let me sleep with you. Do you think you can become the real Mrs. Caffrey by doing this?"

Orlando looked down from above, gnashing his teeth as he glared at her. Not only did he not let go of her hand, but he also clenched it even harder.

His handsome face was shocking with the ruthless expression.

Drugging him?

"Am I that kind of woman in your eyes?" Viola asked with a forced smile on her pale face.

The corners of Orlando's lips curled into a mocking smile, and his eyes were filled with intense disgust. "Back then, didn't you use tricks to fool Grandfather? And you let him force me to marry you. Why are you pretending to be innocent now?

"An ignoble woman like you can never be compared with Anaya!"

Ignoble, pretending to be innocent...

It turned out that in his heart, she was so unbearable.

As for the method of drugging, if she really wanted to, she would have done it a long time ago. Why would she wait until now? Orlando really did not understand her at all!

What a joke! The effort she put in in these three years was nothing!

Since that was the case, there was no need to insist.

Viola endured the pain from his grip. She gritted her teeth and pushed his hand away.

Then, she raised her head and spoke with a firm tone.

"Orlando, let's get a divorce."

“You think she needs you,” he says.

“I know she does.”

“And what if she doesn’t want this kind of protection?”

“She will,” I say, my voice lowering slightly. “Because she needs a man who can give her the world.”

“And if the world burns?”

My hand tightens subtly at Violet’s waist.

“Then I’ll build her a new one,” I reply. “Even if I have to burn the old one down myself.”

I don’t work for Rowan Ashcroft.
I work beneath him.

From my desk, I decide who gets access to the most ruthless CEO in the city, and who never makes it past the lobby. I manage his time, his silence, his enemies. I keep his world running while my own quietly collapses under unpaid bills, a mother locked in rehab, and a brother who vanished without a goodbye.

Rowan Ashcroft is power wrapped in a tailored suit.
Cold. Untouchable. Merciless.
He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see people, only usefulness.

And for a long time, I was just useful.

Until he started watching.

A shift in his attention is subtle at first. A pause too long. A look that lingers. Orders that pull me closer instead of pushing me away. The man who stands above my desk begins to control more than my schedule, and I realize too late that being noticed by Rowan Ashcroft is far more dangerous than being ignored.

Because men like him don’t crave affection.
They crave possession.

This was supposed to be a job.
Not a test of my limits.
Not a slow, deliberate descent into his authority.

But if Rowan Ashcroft decides I belong under his desk, then so be it.
Survival has a price, and the bills don’t care how I pay them.

After college, Lucas pursued me relentlessly.

He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.

He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.

But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.

Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.

Then a message arrived from someone called Sweet An.

Do you really know your husband?

From that day on, my life filled with shadows.

I suspected my husband of having an affair.

When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.

I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.

My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."

The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"

I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.

But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.

Does Lucas truly love me?

And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?
