Rebirth: Love me Again

I once believed I was the heroine of a modern fairytale, blessed with beauty, wealth, intelligence, and a powerful legacy. Men adored me, women envied me, and I was engaged to the most desirable man, Cole Fay. My life seemed perfect, a dream where I held the starring role. But on my eighteenth birthday, that illusion crumbled. The truth hit me hard: I wasn't the protagonist, nor even the villain or a side character. I was just cannon fodder, a disposable part of someone else's story. But when fate recognized the cruel joke of my life, I was granted a second chance. This time, I'll write my own story, living for myself. And this time . . . I will never love you again.

The Mysterious Billionaire      

[EVE]

 

"Yeah, Cole. What's your story? What do you do? What does your family do?"

 

I took a sip of water, silently hoping Cole wouldn't take the bait. Knowing him, his answer could either diffuse the situation or set the room on fire. There was no in-between.

 

Cole shrugged, his expression as nonchalant as ever. "Business."

 

The vague reply earned a few raised eyebrows.

 

"What kind of business?" George pressed, leaning forward like he'd just sniffed out a secret.

 

Cole looked entirely unfazed as he replied, "The works . . . real estate, shipping, jewelry, malls—stuff like that."

 

I nearly choked on my water, hastily swallowing it before anyone noticed. I knew that was probably just the surface of what Cole's family was involved in. He was underselling it so much, I almost felt insulted on his behalf.
