Chapter 1

• Yvonne’s POV
• Everything seemed to be in place, except one. A loving husband. So I abandoned him.
• Christian and I were best friends right from childhood. His family were close with my mom but of all, I guessed he loved me most as his attention was always showered on me most of the time. I grew up to believe he actually loved me most.
• We married years ago upon seeing him as the most suitable man. Soon after marrying Christian, I proposed we have kids immediately. I wanted a family right away so I'll have them grow fast but unfortunately we couldn't because I couldn't bear him a child. I wanted babies soon so I could take over as an active CEO upon my mom's retirement.
• Since we couldn't have a family soon, I wanted to sustain our marriage with a steamy, passionate sexual relationship with him. The same way we were close as best friends, I wanted us to be close in our marriage but in a sexual way that would make him forget I wasn't yet a mom. Seeing him fuck that girl on our matrimonial bed when I eventually made him a dad pissed me than hell.
• I was determined to make sure I torture him. Sitting down in my mom's estate, I looked into space thinking of what to do. An idea sharply came to mind, it was though I was teleported to the future and a supreme being was speaking to me.
• “When the baby is older, call for a court summon and ensure you both are divorced officially but in a cohabitation you can relate with other men right in the same house with him.”
• It was the best I could do since I caught him having sex with another woman. I'll make him spend the rest of our son’s childhood to teenage age watching me romance and fuck with someone who's greater than him.
• This was the best revenge.
• For the next few days, my mind didn't leave this idea, rather it was deliberating on the one thousand and one reasons why it will work.
• I'll just live with my mom, passing the traumatic years training under mom's company, our fashion brand, Olympia, to become the next CEO while taking care of our son, Carlos.
• Rising from where I sat, I smiled. He will not know what I plan until it strikes both him and the Raine apart. Smiling to myself, I walked in to go take care of our son.
• As I later slept in bed that night, there was no one suitable to fit this role, other than his uncle, Alex, his greatest enemy. I grinned imagining Christian watching me get pregnant for another man. His heart would most certainly break.
• I wasn't satisfied with only this that I had to meet with mom the next morning, her ideas too would count. So I waited for her to finish her breakfast, as she was about to go to work.
• “Mom,” I called and she turned.
• “What do you want?”
• “What more can we do to torture Christian for what he has done to me?” My face twisted as I wanted to convince her.
• She thought and thought for a while before raising her eyes back to me. “We can use three years, work harder, use multiple accounts to buy almost all the shares in his company.”
• I widened my eyes, curling my lips. “He wouldn't know it's the same person trying to gain power into his company.” Mom nodded. “And when it's time to cohabit with him for revenge, I'll sue him in court, get half of his assets, including the company, including child support.”
• Mom turned around, looking at me with horror. “Yes, I nodded. This is what I plan.”
• I could now tell her my entire plan while I wait to see it come to pass.
• “If it's so, then I can hold Alex for you.” Mom snapped. “What do you mean, mom?”
• “Since he's not married currently and I'm not either, we could be in a friend's-with-benefits relationship where I will hand him over to you when the time is right.”
• “Really?” But I doubted. How am I sure she won't fall in love with Alex and refuse to give him a baby? I couldn't tell but either way, I had to believe, do the necessary while waiting.
