Married to the Loveless Billionaire
Married for three years, Vivian Langston endured a cold, loveless union with Ethan Cole. He was cruel, indifferent, and blinded by his “white moonlight,” leaving her isolated and heartbroken. When she lost their unborn child on a stormy night, calling desperately for him, she realized she could no longer sacrifice herself for a love that would never be returned. Leaving quietly, she rebuilt her life with her twin, Veronica, at her side. Now, two years later, Vivian is back in the world she left behind—this time as the head of her family’s empire and Ethan’s new boss. With the support of her twin and a carefully crafted plan, she’s ready to take him down in the same ruthless way he once shattered her. But as the games begin, Ethan is no longer the man she left. Haunted by regret, he’s willing to do anything to make things right, even as the woman he scorned becomes more powerful and untouchable. But is it too late? Or will the broken vows and shattered hearts lead them down a path neither saw coming?
Chapter 33 - Vivi's POV
I offer a polite smile to the guests at my table and excuse myself, feigning an urgent need for the restroom. My heels click against the marble floor as I make my way to the lavish powder room. The mirror reflects a woman who looks picture-perfect. Mia's magic has transformed me tonight—my skin glows with a radiant sheen, my eyes shimmer with a touch of gold, and my hair cascades in soft waves, framing my face like a halo. But beneath the flawless exterior, my heart races.
