“You are a selfish, insecure, and jealous person, Esme. I'm sick of you. I want you out of my life,” Julian Ray, my fiancé yelled at me.
Selfish? Insecure? Jealous? 
I only tried to keep that bitch away from him. Was he expecting me to sit idly and watch her snatch my fiancé? 
Julian removed the engagement ring and threw it at me. “We are done.” 
He just ended our relationship, smashing my hopes and shattering my heart. 
I loved him since I was a child and grew up with the dream to be his wife. I was overjoyed when I was finally betrothed to him two years ago. 
Julian was always ambitious. He did not want to settle down and married so soon since he wanted to be successful in his career. 
I did everything I could to make him happy and achieve his goal. When he finally got his desired job and position, he forgot about me and cheated on me. He had forgotten my favor, my sacrifices, and my love for him. 
“I love you, Julian. Please don’t break up with me,” I begged. 
He didn’t listen to me. He coldly asked me to get out of his life. “I never loved you, Esme. Just get lost.”
I was devastated. 
This was not the life I had imagined. He simply couldn't leave my life after ruining me and breaking my heart. I decided to teach him a lesson for cheating on me.
I hooked up with his boss, Silas Sullivan, the handsome billionaire, the desire of every woman. And guess what, my ex-boyfriend crawled back to me and begged my forgiveness. 
“My heart is breaking, Esme. I-I want you back. Please forgive me.” 
I let out a soft chuckle, shaking my head with disbelief. “Are you kidding me, Mister Ray? Forgive you! No way.” 
I smiled triumphantly as I won the game. Julian would regret hurting me, and he would come after me for my forgiveness. But little did I know I had already made a grave mistake by meddling with Silas Sullivan.
=============== 
His imposing figure towered over me as he pressed me against the wall in his office. “Playing games with me, Miss Shaw. With Silas Sullivan! You have no idea who you have provoked. Prepare to face the consequences." He gripped my neck, digging his nails into my flesh. 
I trembled in fear. I could see hell in his burning, dark eyes.

Temptation of Billionaire's Secret Lover: A Tale of Love and Revenge

The throng of reporters had thinned, but a few stragglers lingered, their faces etched with disappointment or lingering aggression. Lara, her dress wrinkled and her hair windblown, looked up at the familiar face. Relief washed over her. A smile bloomed on her face.

"Bruno!" She murmured, surprised and grateful for his unexpected appearance. "How did you know I was here?"

"The latest rumors about Silas concerned me," Bruno explained. "I went to find you at your office and learned from the receptionist that you had attended the press conference. So, I've come down here."

His gaze swept over her with a hawk-like intensity. When his eyes landed on the fresh scratches on her arm, his expression hardened with a mix of anger and worry. "Are you hurt?"

Lara, sensing his concern, mustered a reassuring smile. "It's nothing. Just a few scratches. It'll go away."

Why Daphne? Why not Esme?
