Elara Dawn

For seven years, Elara Thorne lived in the shadow of her own marriage. While her tech mogul husband Damien showered attention on his mistress, Elara played the perfect corporate wife—making his coffee, organizing his schedule, and watching her six-year-old daughter Cora grow closer to the other woman.

The other woman who happened to be her half-sister.

Vivienne Dubois had everything Elara didn't—Damien's heart, Cora's adoration, and the respect of everyone at Thorne Industries. When Elara flew home hoping to celebrate her birthday with her family, she found them planning a surprise party for Vivienne instead. When little Cora innocently asked if Vivienne could be her mommy, something inside Elara finally snapped.

Elara had been a brilliant AI researcher before marriage stole her ambitions. She'd co-founded YodaVision Technologies, only to abandon it all for a man who never loved her back. But now Julian Croft, her former partner, wants her to return as Chief Innovation Officer. The tech world that forgot her exists is about to remember why she was once called a visionary.

Walking away seems impossible when it means leaving Cora behind. But staying means accepting a life where she's invisible in her own home, humiliated at her own workplace, and competing with her half-sister for scraps of attention from her own family.

Damien thinks his wife will quietly accept whatever he gives her, the way she always has. He's about to discover that seven years of silence doesn't mean surrender—it means she's been planning her comeback. And when Elara Vance reclaims her name, her career, and her power, the tech world won't be the only thing shaken.

Some women bend. Others break. But the smart ones? They rebuild themselves stronger than before.

My Coldhearted Husband’s Regret

Zachary Newman's keynote address captivated the audience with its brilliant insights and visionary concepts. His commanding presence held everyone's attention for the full hour. When he concluded, thunderous applause filled the exhibition hall.


"Thank you for your attention," Newman said with a slight nod before stepping away from the podium.


As he descended from the stage, a swarm of industry executives moved forward, eager to exchange even a few words with the renowned professor. Newman acknowledged them with brief, polite responses, his expression remaining impassive.


The event coordinator guided him to his assigned seat in the front row. People continued to approach, offering business cards and attempting to initiate conversations. Newman accepted the cards mechanically, rarely making eye contact for more than a second.


Damien Thorne rose from his seat, Vivienne Dubois at his side. He waited for a momentary break in the crowd before approaching Newman.
