Had she known sooner that Natalie was the Stone family’s daughter, Loretta would have forced Jensen to marry her no matter what. Then both the Stones‘ wealth and Witch Doctor’s connections would have belonged to the Luke family.

The regret twisted her insides until she could hardly breathe, and every glance at Sharon only deepened her loathing.

Sharon didn’t care what Loretta thought. She wasn’t going to be Luke Corp’s lady anymore, but she would not walk away empty–handed.

“Madam,” she said coldly, “I carried Jensen’s child once. It wasn’t my choice to lose it–it was him who wouldn’t let me keep it. Miscarriage ruins a woman’s body. I deserve compensation. And another thing–our marriage may have been mutual, but the divorce was forced on me. I want compensation for that too.”

Loretta’s face hardened. “Compensation? Don’t tell me you expect half the Luke fortune for a marriage that lasted mere days. Don’t be ridiculous. The Luke family doesn’t hand out charity, and our lawyers don’t lose.”

Sharon faltered. Yes, she had come hoping to grab for half of Luke Corp, but Loretta’s ferocity made her realize such greed could get her killed.

Her mind raced. “Fine. Don’t play games with me either. One hundred million. That’s all I want. Pay me that, and I’ll care for Jensen. I’ll even clean up after him if I have to. For Luke Corp, one hundred million is pocket change, isn’t it?”
