THE BILLIONAIRE'S VENGEFUL WIFE RETURNS

"Sir, are you sure you want to push through with this divorce?" Gus asked hesitantly, his voice tinged with both concern and desperation. Across the massive oak desk, Alanis Hamilton sat in his leather chair, eyes closed as if the question were beneath him. It was because the Hamilton organization needed the Blackwood’s to boost their company. If his boss cut ties with the Hamilton’s daughter, they’re doomed because they’ll undergo bankruptcy.

Yes," Alanis said coldly, his deep voice devoid of emotion, cutting through the tension like a blade.

Gus swallowed hard, feeling the sweat gather on his brow. "But, sir... can’t you just endure her..." He hesitated, searching for a less offensive word but finding none. "Her attitude? Just until things stabilize?"

The sharp snap of Alanis’s eyes opening made Gus’s breath hitch. Those piercing black eyes, cold and predatory, locked onto him. For a moment, Gus regretted his daring. But desperation had made him bold, just like everyone else in the company who depended on this fragile marriage.

"Yes," Alanis said coldly, his eyes still closed and voice void of emotion.

"But boss, can’t you just endure her bullshit or bad attitude and push through with the marriage?" Gus asked and almost regretted why he spoke because right now those black eyes stared at him like a predator about to pounce on its prey. He gulped. He had just been as desperate as everyone else.

When Senior Hamilton ran the company, it had flourished, but his wife’s disastrous mismanagement had nearly destroyed it. Now, the burden of reviving their empire rested on Alanis’s shoulders. And their only lifeline? Harlow Blackwood the heiress of the world’s wealthiest family.

Every man coveted Harlow, yet Alanis treated her as disposable. It was baffling.
