The Return of the Neglected Wife
Malia Brown thought she had it all—until her perfect world shattered. Married to Nixus Salvatore, a powerful CEO, she endured his neglect and obsession with another woman, Selene. When tragedy strikes and Nixus abandons her in her darkest hour, Malia walks away, signing the divorce papers and vowing never to look back. Two years later, Malia returns, stronger and more successful than ever, only to find their divorce never went through. Now, Nixus wants her back, but the scars of their past run deep. As jealousy, power games, and desire collide, Malia must decide if she can ever forgive the man who broke her—or if she’s finally ready to break free for good. Passion, betrayal, and a fight for love—who will win in the game of possession?
Chapter 38: Unveiling the Past
The day was overcast, the kind of gray sky that seemed to press down on everything. The clouds were thick with the threat of rain, and the world felt muted, as though holding its breath. Nixus sat in his office, the once-familiar surroundings now tainted with an air of uncertainty. The sharp lines of the room—the sleek desk, the polished surfaces—no longer offered the comfort they once did. Today, it all felt hollow.
His thoughts were consumed with the truth about Malia's miscarriage, a truth he had only recently learned. The revelation had shaken him to his core. All this time, he had been kept in the dark, manipulated by Selene, who had somehow convinced him to believe that Malia was the one at fault, that she was the one who had pushed him away. But now, the pieces of the puzzle were beginning to come together.
