Her Bitter Revenge: The Surgeon's Betrayal

The monitors were still screaming when I opened my eyes, a frantic rhythm that matched the dying pulse of a pregnancy I didn’t even know I’d lost. My body felt hollowed out, poisoned by experimental drugs for a cancer diagnosis my husband, Victor, had faked to fuel his mistress’s career. I was never a wife to him; I was a disposable lab rat, a source of data points and stolen savings used to fund a life I wasn't invited to lead. They thought they had perfected the art of the clinical kill, leaving me broken in a Sagaponack hospital bed while they toasted to their awards. But as the anesthesia cleared and I saw Lucas Harrington—the rival surgeon who refused to let me fade—I realized Victor made one fatal mistake. He left me with just enough breath to tell the truth, and just enough rage to burn his empire to the ground.
