Divorced on Our Anniversary, I Returned as the Heiress Novel Cover

Divorced on Our Anniversary, I Returned as the Heiress

On their seventh wedding anniversary, Victor demands a divorce to reunite with his returning first love, leaving his wife with nothing. Believing she is just a helpless orphan, he remains blissfully unaware of her true identity. In reality, she is the secret daughter of Joshua Henson, a tycoon owning most of the city's real estate. Worse for Victor, his company's recent thirty-million-dollar funding round came directly from his newly ex-wife's powerful family.

Chapter 4

“Victor and I were high school classmates. He was my first love.” She faced the camera, her voice soft and gentle. “Then something happened with my family, and I had to go abroad. Before I left, he told me, 'Belinda, wait for me. I'll come find you.'”

“But I never imagined that by the time I came back, he'd already be married.”

She lowered her head, lashes dropping.

“I went to see him. He told me he wasn't happy. He said the marriage was a mistake, that he regretted it every single day. I tried to talk him out of it. I said, 'You're married now, make it work. Don't hurt her.' But he said—”

She bit her lip.

“He said he thought about me every day.”

I picked up a piece of braised pork and chewed.

“She's not bad.” My dad spoke up suddenly.

“I thought you were reading your documents.”

“My ears still work.”

I laughed.

The interview continued.

Then Belinda came for me.:“Bernice Henson. I don't even know how to describe her. She was scheming from the very beginning. When she first met Victor, she pretended to be an orphan, played on his sympathy. Victor is too kind. He felt sorry for her, kept looking after her. And before he knew it, she had him trapped.”

“I only found out later that she was no orphan at all. Her father is Joshua Henson. Yes, that Joshua Henson. Two-thirds of the real estate in this city is tied to their family. She hid who she really was, played helpless, and let Victor waste seven years on her. If that isn't marriage fraud, what is?”

The host asked,:“Are you saying Bernice was deceiving Victor from the very start?”

“Yes.” Belinda nodded. “And she didn't stop after the divorce. She sued Victor, trying to take over three hundred million of his assets. Three hundred million! That's everything Victor built from scratch with his own hands. What gives her the right?”

She buried her face in her hands.

“Victor and I, we just love each other. What did we do wrong?”

The interview ended with Belinda in tears.

Within three hours, the view count broke ten million.

The comments and live reactions were almost unanimous::

“Poor Bella! That Bernice is disgusting!”

“A rich girl pretending to be poor to trap a man, and now SHE's playing the victim? Shameless!”

“Victor is the real victim here. Seven years wasted on a liar……”

“The Hensons are all the same. Built their fortune sucking other people dry!”

I closed the iPad.

“Finished?” my dad asked.

“Finished.”

“Thoughts?”

“Mediocre performance.”

I stood up.

“Dad, I'm heading out.”

“Where to?”

“Someone's desperate to put on a show for me. Might as well go watch in person.”
