The Billion Dollar Revenge For Lucia Hale
She gave everything to the man she loved: her ideas, her dreams, her future. She thought he loved her too.
Until it all fell apart.
Lucia Hale is a brilliant woman who devotes her life to building her husband's dreams. When she is diagnosed with cancer, everything comes crashing down: including the life she had built with Jack Hale. The man she loved had been slowly poisoning her for years, all while building a secret life with her best friend.
When Lucia crashes her car and wakes up in a hospital, she learns the most shocking truth of all: her name is Elara Harrington, sole heir to one of the most powerful dynasties in the country. And she is very much alive.
With a new name, a new empire and a dangerously charming ally in the cold but annoying Atlas Steele, Elara rises from the ashes of the life that was stolen from her.
But revenge is a game with more players than she knows…and someone far closer has been pulling the strings all along.
The heiress is coming home. And this time, she's burning everything down.

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-SevenElara scrunched up her nose.“I’ll stick with the ice cream, thanks,” she said. “Your loss.” She took another spoon, savouring the soft taste in her mouth. He did know what he was talking about, but she wasn’t going to admit that and risk inflating his huge ego any further. “Look at this,” he said, looking at her from across the table. “Our first date.” Elara looked up quickly. “What? No. it’s not.” “It could be, if you want, you know. I could get Michelle…” he pointed at the waitress, “…to put on some romantic music and we could have a-”“Do you just enjoy teasing me or are you trying to escape from something?” Something flickered across Atlas’ eyes briefly, but he just took another spoon of chocolate.“Look, I appreciate this and all, but I want to get back to work as soon as I can,” she said. “Why, what’s the rush?” He cocked his head slightly, and his long hair fell slightly to the side with the motion. She dragged her eyes away from how oily they looked. “If I’m being ho

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-SixElara shifted her gaze from her aunt to Atlas. He looked too relaxed and her smile looked fake. Just what had they been talking about before she came in? “Amelia was just here to say hi,” Atlas said suddenly. “She’s leaving already.”Amelia shot him a cold glare, her lips pressed into a thin line, but she turned to Elara. “Yes, I’ll leave you two to it.”Then she withdrew from the study and she shut the door behind her with a loud bang that echoed down the hallway.Elara crossed her arms, turning back to Atlas. “What was that about?”He shrugged, already turning his attention back to the scattered papers. “Nothing you need to worry yourself about.”She narrowed her eyes in suspicion, but he didn’t say anything more. Instead, he began arranging the documents into separate piles with surprising efficiency. “What do you think?” she asked, watching him.“I think this is all disorderly,” he replied. “You have to start from somewhere.”She scrunched up her nose, but held back her retort

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Five“You want to move in with me…here?” Elara asked with slightly widened eyes. Atlas folded his arms. “I don't see what's the big deal, I spent the night here before, haven't I?”“The big deal is that it's not one night anymore. I have no idea how many days-”“You need my help, Elara. This world you've stepped into? It's not what most people think.” He stepped closer, filling the space between them with that soft, clean scent that filled her thoughts. “You came into sudden wealth, out of nowhere. It doesn't help that you're a lady, no offense.” She opened her mouth to argue, but he touched her hair, and she felt her voice go silent. “You heard my grandma,” he went on softly. “They're not going to kneel and pledge allegiance. You don't know who to trust, and I've been in this game way longer than you have.” She pursed her lips, forcing herself to hold his gaze without thinking of his touch on her hair or how blue his eyes were up close or how lovely he smelled…“I guess I don't have

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-FourElara joined her aunt for breakfast out on the patio the next morning. She liked the view that the yard gave her. It faced the lawn: it was well-kept and so were the flowers and hedges that lined the land, but she suddenly didn’t find it that impressive. Not like the Steeles’. “Did you sleep well?” her aunt’s voice interrupted her thoughts. “I did,” Elara replied. “Good.” She took a bite of mango slices and casually asked, “So, what else did you talk about with Victoria?” Elara paused, with a fork of her own sliced mangoes halfway to her mouth. “Why is that important?” she asked. “Well, I did some thinking, and the Steeles might not actually be all that I thought them to be,” Amelia said.“Really?” She hooked a brow. “But you were very happy when she invited me yesterday.” Amelia shrugged, shifting her eyes to her plate. “I didn’t think much about it then.” Elara was about to ask why the Steeles wouldn’t be on their side and why they would be helping her, when the sliding gla

Chapter: Chapter Twenty- ThreeCHAPTER TWENTY-TWOThe yard beyond the glass screen in the dining room was a wide expanse of green land that stretched before a small artificial lake, dotted here and there with trees.That was where Elara found Victoria after dessert. She thanked her for her hospitality and for dinner. Now, she was ready to take her leave. “Are you certain you wouldn’t prefer to stay the night? We have more than enough rooms for you and for your driver.” Elara smiled politely. “Really, it’s fine.”“Very well. Come to me if you need anything, dear. I owed your parents a great deal in their lifetime.” She paused,a frown appearing on her face. “Where is my grandson?” “He…had urgent business to attend to.”Something flashed in the older woman’s eyes, but it was gone as soon as it appeared. She sighed instead and said, “I apologize for his sake. My grandson might bear the titles of his family, but plays the part of an unmannered child.”“It’s no problem, really-”“It should be.” Victoria gave her a si

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-TwoCHAPTER TWENTY-ONEAtlas headed toward the front doors, his mind shifting from dinner to the darker events that lay ahead of the night.He met Albert out front, talking with the valet. He turned, sensing Atlas’ presence. One look at his face, and he seemed to know what he was off to do. “Shall I prepare anything for your return?” he asked simply. “Nah. Just divert any and all calls that come through to my office here. I’m not to be disturbed.”Albert raised a knowing brow, and Atlas wonderef how many times the butler had seen his own father rush out like that. “Business to handle, sir?”Atlas’s lips curved into a cold smile. “You know how it is. Don’t breathe a word of this to grandma.” Albert simply nodded and watched as Atlas walked down the front steps to one of the sports cars waiting out front.He drove to the industrial edge of the city. Here were the most abandoned parts, though that was only to the untrained eye. A few warehouses stood among the old buildings. And they a
