He Thought I Was Broken, But The House Always Wins

Synopsis

At seven months pregnant, my husband's first love, Claire, caused me to fall. The severe hemorrhage cost me my baby—and ultimately, my uterus. I had barely been wheeled into the hospital room when my husband, Evan Calder, tossed two documents onto my lap. "You lost your uterus, but Lumen Group still needs an heir." He tapped one of the files. "Sign the adoption papers. Noah will become your legal child, and this will list him as the primary beneficiary of your estate." I stared at the name printed on the page: Noah Calder, age six. Married for five years, yet his child with Claire was already six years old. "The whole company answers to me now. Sign it, and you get to stay Mrs. Calder." "Otherwise..." I signed my name on both documents. Evan smiled, reaching out to ruffle my hair. "That's a good girl." But what he didn't know was that the company he just stole was only a fraction of my empire.
