Teela married King Heavenly because she loved him, but life in the Heavenly household was anything but euphoric. Lettie, her hard-as-nails mother-in-law, treats her like an unpaid servant. The family treats her like an outsider. King treats her like a shadow, transparent and forgettable. 

When Lettie presses Teela to prove her value to the family or get out, Teela has a decision to make. But she’s not leaving without a fight.

King Heavenly rules Heavenly Industries with an iron fist, but he leaves his home life to his mother to manage, and that includes the management of his boring little wife. Teela has never complained. She’s never done anything interesting, for that matter. She’s just one more responsibility in a long line of responsibilities that King shoulders on a daily basis, and that is exactly how he treats her — as a responsibility that he’s delegated to his mother. 

Suddenly Teela steps out of the shadows and into a fight with him and his whole family, and King is baffled by the ruthless actions of his now daring wife. He’d always heard that vengeance is a dish best served cold, but Teela is coming in hot!

Wife’s Bitter Revenge Against Neglectful CEO Husband

I put on the gold hoops while looking at my reflection in the mirror. More accurately, I was covertly watching Alec dress in the background while suppressing the urge to cry.

Yeah, the urge to cry had nothing to do with Alec. It had everything to do with the fact I was dressing for a party without Bea. Other than my wedding, when I had a professional hairdresser and makeup artist, this was the first time I could recall ever preparing for a party without Bea's help.

Add to it, Ben had given us permission to share his grand opening limelight by publicly announcing our engagement tonight, and I was bordering on overwhelmed, which happened a whole lot more often these days than when I was married to King.

The sub-party of personal friends was also celebrating the rescue of Colby and the success of Micah's surgery. With luck, he now had decades of life ahead of him instead of mere days.
