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

Chapter 261 - A Brother's Pride and a Friend's Interest


Walking through the sleek corridors of ApexSphere, I couldn't help but feel a swell of pride for my sister. Vivienne had always been exceptional—brilliant, ambitious, and determined. Now she had this entire company as proof of her capabilities.


"Ms. Dubois is truly remarkable," an employee commented as she guided me through the facility. "She's transformed our approach to market analysis in just a few months."


"That sounds like my sister," I replied, unable to keep the pride from my voice.


The woman smiled. "She's in an important meeting right now. Would you like me to let her know you're here?"


"No need to disturb her. I'll just take a look around if that's all right."


As I wandered through the open workspace, I noticed the hushed efficiency of the environment. Vivienne's influence was evident in every detail—from the minimalist design to the focused intensity of the employees. She had truly made this place her own.
