The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Zoe clutched the bedsheet tightly, her forehead now covered in cold sweat.

Back then, she had always thought her older brother was brave but not particularly clever. No matter what she did, she could always cover up her mistakes with a little whining and acting. But she finally realized how mistaken she was.

Ryan was far more perceptive than she had ever imagined, instantly seeing through her and Liam's scheme! She had only fooled Ryan in the past because he trusted her unconditionally as his sister, never doubting her intentions.

However, they were no longer siblings but enemies.

Ryan had become a formidable enemy, strong enough to battle wits with their cunning uncle.

Liam stood there, glaring angrily at Ryan. However, Ryan had no patience for him. He simply shouldered past him. His strong frame knocked Liam off balance as he approached Zoe.

"Zoe, you'd better stay quiet and behave yourself."

Ryan's narrow eyes gleamed with a predator's intensity that made Zoe's scalp tingle. "If you dare to bother Bella and Justin, or my wife, Carrie, not even Grandpa or God will be able to protect you. I WILL KILL YOU."

Each word dripped with hatred.

Zoe's pupils contracted as she stared into Ryan's fierce, icy eyes. She felt a swirl of shock, anger, and despair.

The last time her brother had called her "Zoe", he had looked at her with nothing but affection, smiling warmly as he held her hand, proudly showing off his talented sister to the world.

That felt like a lifetime ago.
