Reborn: The CEO Mom's Revenge
Agatha Christie · Completed · 7.5k Words
Introduction
That night in the hospital, Victoria secretly switched the identity tags of two newborns. From then on, my biological daughter was abused as a "bastard" for four whole years, while her illegitimate child enjoyed all the love as the Blackstone Group heir.
Even more terrifying—my husband David had known everything all along.
When kidnappers demanded we could only save one child, Victoria and David said without hesitation: "Of course we save Charlotte's daughter—she's the Blackstone heir!"
I agreed in agony.
My real daughter died in the kidnappers' hands, her tiny body covered in scars.
When I discovered the truth, David sneered: "You'd better be dead, so we can completely control Blackstone Group."
Together they pushed me down 60 flights of stairs.
Before dying, I heard my daughter's innocent voice: "Mommy fell down by herself."
When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to that night when Victoria first knelt and begged me.
This time, I won't be soft-hearted.
Chapter 1
Charlotte's POV
"Charlotte!"
The sharp scream interrupted my thoughts, intense pain still coursing through my spine like being pierced by thousands of needles.
I jolted awake to see the familiar Manhattan mansion living room. Warm firelight danced in the fireplace, crystal chandeliers casting amber light.
This was... the Blackstone family mansion?
"God, you screamed so horribly just now—was it a nightmare?" Victoria clicked in wearing heels, but her eyes were red and swollen, clearly having cried.
I looked down at myself—a HUGE pregnant belly!
Eight months pregnant!
Memories flooded back like a tide. The excruciating pain of falling from the 60th floor, David's cold eyes...
I had been reborn!
Reborn back to four years ago, back to this DAMNED night!
"Charlotte, you look awful. Should I call a doctor?" Victoria sat beside me, but I could feel her distraction.
"I'm fine..." I forced my voice to sound normal. "Just had a nightmare."
A nightmare? No, that was my death memory! I remembered that tiny figure—my biological daughter... killed by this damned bitch!
"Charlotte, I came tonight because..." Victoria's voice began trembling.
I quickly adjusted my emotions, pretending concern: "What's wrong? You look terrible."
Victoria took a deep breath, then without warning dropped to her knees on the Persian rug with a loud "THUD."
"Jesus fucking Christ! Victoria!" I feigned shock. "Are you insane? Get up!"
"No! Charlotte, only you can save me!" She gripped my hands desperately, tears streaming down like a broken dam. "I've totally FUCKED UP! If Kevin finds out the truth, I'm DEAD!"
Watching her performance, rage and hatred from my past life burned in my heart. But on the surface, I had to appear as naive and kind as I was last time.
"What the hell happened? Get up and talk."
"I can't get up! Not unless you promise to help me!" Victoria cried until her makeup ran, suddenly removing her coat to reveal an equally rounded pregnant belly. "Charlotte, I made an unforgivable mistake... If Kevin finds out, he'll KILL me!"
Seeing her belly, I acted even more shocked: "Victoria! You... you're pregnant?! But Kevin's been in London..."
Victoria's voice grew smaller: "Eight months ago when Kevin was away on business... I got drunk, met some stranger at a bar... God damn it, we had sex."
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" I widened my eyes.
"Worse..." her voice was barely audible, "I got pregnant, and Kevin's coming back soon."
"Victoria, have you lost your fucking mind?" I said with a trembling voice. "Kevin loves you so much—how could you betray him?"
"I know I'm a damned slut! I know I betrayed Kevin!" She sobbed hysterically. "But it already happened! If Kevin finds out, if the media knows, I'm FINISHED!"
I watched her performance coldly. Last time, I was completely fooled by this act, soft-heartedly agreeing to her plan. Then she switched the babies' identities at the hospital, making my daughter suffer undeserved pain.
"So what do you want me to do?" I asked knowingly.
Victoria suddenly looked up, a flash of cunning in her eyes: "Charlotte, we can say you're having twins!"
"What? Are you fucking kidding me?"
"Listen!" She explained urgently. "Our due dates are only days apart. We can go into delivery together and announce you had twins! That way my child gets a legitimate identity, and Kevin never knows the truth!"
I pretended to be shocked speechless by this proposal, while laughing maniacally inside.
Stupid Victoria, did you think I'd be as naive as last time?
"This... this is fucking INSANE..." I deliberately hesitated.
"Please Charlotte! For the sake of growing up together!" Victoria gripped my hands. "This is the only way to protect my marriage! I promise, this damned secret stays between just us two!"
Just us two?
How did David coordinate the baby switch with you last time?
"Victoria..." I looked at her deeply, letting "pain" and "struggle" show on my face. "This is too fucking huge... if we're discovered..."
"We won't be! I fucking SWEAR!" She desperately promised. "Charlotte, I'm out of options! If you don't help me, I can only die!"
I stayed silent for a long time, letting her stew in anxiety. Then slowly, I nodded.
"Alright... for old times' sake, I'll help you."
Victoria's face instantly burst with ecstatic joy: "Really? Oh thank fucking God! Charlotte, you're the best friend in the world! I'll be grateful forever!"
Grateful forever?
I watched her face streaked with excited tears, the fire of revenge burning in my heart.
Damned bitch, prepare for HELL!

I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run.

Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

Mated by Contract to the Alpha

Instead, I found him with her. And their son.

I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
