Aurelia Holt had quietly sacrificed her career to be a stay-at-home wife for her husband, Blake Carson, so that he could work full time while also pursuing his dream of becoming a successful producer in the future. 

But on the night of their second wedding anniversary, she watched her husband come home with another woman in his arms. It was Stella, his first love whom he was never really over. 

“She is already upset, you don’t have to make her feel worse. Is it wrong to show care and concern for my friend?” He argued as he clenched his jaws and kept his gaze steady on my face.

“She isn’t just your friend, she was your ex, your first love. And isn’t it so convenient that everytime she needs you or something happens whenever I just want to spend some time with you?” 

He had always chosen Stella over her, putting her needs and feelings above hers. And that night, she finally had enough. 

“All you ever care about is Stella!” I continued to yell so loudly that I could practically hear my voice ringing in my ears. “You always do this! You always choose her over me, you always put her feelings above mine.” 

I watched as a smirk tugged at Stella’s lips as she watched me argue with my husband over her. Blake walked to her side, wrapping his arm around her as she curled her fingers around his arm with a pitiful look.

“Stop yelling, you are scaring Stella. Why can’t you be more understanding and stop being so self-centered? Not everything is about you!”

The last thing she remembered was her running out into the pouring rain and the next thing she knew, she was asking a stranger to marry her. That stranger was Xavier Wilder, the billionaire CEO of one of the most successful companies in the country. But there was more to him that Aurelia didn’t know just yet, something he was hiding from her.

Together, she vowed to make her ex-husband’s life a living hell. There were only two things he cared about the most―his reputation and his ego. And she planned to destroy it all, bit by bit.

Pampered by my Billionaire CEO Husband

Evelyn shrieked as she stumbled back a couple of steps and held onto her hand as her features contorted into a pained expression that masked her features.

The audience sitting below collectively sucked in a gasp of air through their teeth and their eyes widened in shock and surprise as they witnessed the scene unravel before their own eyes. Whispers and murmurs filled the air once again as people started to gossip among themselves and pointing fingers at us.

Almost immediately, I heard Xavier's deep voice reach my ears as my name left his lips in a panic, his voice laced with concern.

I whipped my head around to look at him among the crowd and we locked eyes from a distance. I could barely feel the pain that coursed through my body, nor did I notice the blood that was the colour of my dress, it was trickling down my palm as I was frozen to the ground, shock and disbelief swirling in the depths of my eyes.
