Once the Forgotten Wife, Now His Biggest Regret

For seven years, Evelyn Hart had given her all into the marriage.

But her husband never loved her. Lucas Smith only had eyes for her younger sister, Jessica Hart.

All because he believed that Evelyn schemed her way into his bed, destroying his engagement to her younger sister out of jealousy. No matter what Evelyn said or did, he never believed her, and she was stuck in a marriage with a man who despised her guts.

Yet for the sake of their sick daughter, she stayed.

Until one day, he brought her sister home, demanding that she help take care of her, only for her to secretly overhear that the baby in her sister’s womb belonged to him!

But what broke her heart completely was witnessing her husband throw himself in front of a gunman to protect her younger sister, while he shoved her towards danger.

Watching her husband and daughter embrace her younger sister while she had a gun pointed at her head, Evelyn made up her mind.

She had enough, and she wanted a divorce. Evelyn chose to leave her family for good and begin her revenge plan with a man who swore to protect her. But she never expected that her husband and daughter would come crawling back, begging for a second chance, unaware that they were walking right into her trap.

I never thought that I would see the day Lucas Smith was on his knees, begging for my forgiveness. But there he was.

“Evelyn, please come back to me. Kayla and I need you.”

My daughter nodded beside him, looking at me with glassy eyes as she tugged at my sleeves. “Mommy, we miss you.”

A cold chuckle slipped past my lips. “For seven years, you never loved me, all you cared about was my sister.” I paused, the corners of my lips curling into a wry smile. “Or did you finally come crawling back to me, now that I might be useful to you?”

“No, that’s not…Evelyn, I was wrong. I will make it up to you.”

I yanked my hands out of his grip. “Well, it's too late now. I don’t need anything from you, and I never want to see you again.”
