Chapter 67

Elysia’s heart sank like a stone dropped into the depths of the ocean. One moment, she was a nobody, and the next, she had somehow transformed into the wife of a billionaire.

If it were anyone else, they’d probably be over the moon, right?

But her? She just wanted to cry.

The higher Tarquin’s pedestal, the more power he wielded, the less she felt capable of standing up to him.

To everyone else, he was a titan, and if he refused to divorce, what could she possibly do against him?

Oh heavens, she thought, why not just take her out of her misery?

Elysia’s sudden transformation into a picture of gloom didn’t go unnoticed by Blossom, who mistook her friend’s expression for shock at the bombshell news about Tarquin.

“You know, even though Tarquin’s as handicapped as your hubby, stories about him could fill books,” Blossom said, not realizing the irony of her words. “He’s never shown his face around town–no one knows what he looks like–but legends of him are everywhere.

But, my dear, he’s like a prince from a fairy tale, and we’re just average Janes. There’s no need to be scared at the mention of his name. We don’t cross paths with his kind, and he doesn’t know us from Adam, so no worries!”

Elysia felt the urge to cry even more. How could she not know him?
