The Billionaire’s Lost Bride

For twenty-three years, I was Vivienne Laurent.
The loyal wife.
The quiet wife.
The woman beside billionaire hotel king Gabriel Laurent while he built luxury hotels in New York, Paris, and Provence.
I gave him my youth.
My dreams.
My name.
My heart.

Then, on the morning of our anniversary gala, I opened a Paris auction catalog and saw my own wedding portrait for sale.
Only the title had been changed.

Lot 47: The Lost Bride.
My wedding dress was there.
My hands were there.
My sapphire ring was there.
But my face had been painted over.
And the woman selling it was Céline Vasseur.
Gabriel’s beautiful art adviser.
His secret lover.
The woman he swore meant nothing.
That was when I learned the truth.
My husband had not only betrayed our marriage.

He had planned my removal from our foundation, our homes, our legacy, and the life I helped him build.
He wanted my image.
My silence.
My story.
But not me.

So, at our anniversary gala, I smiled for the cameras one last time.
Then I dropped my wedding ring into his champagne glass and walked out before dessert.
No screaming.
No begging.
No looking back.
But the portrait was only the beginning.
Behind the gray paint was a hidden message.
Behind the auction was a lie.
Behind Gabriel’s perfect family name was a crime buried for seventeen years.

And the only man willing to help me uncover the truth was Adrien Moreau, a quiet Paris attorney with patient hands, dangerous calm, and eyes that saw the woman my husband tried to erase.
Gabriel wants me back.
Céline wants me ruined.
The Laurent family wants me silent.
But I am done being the wife on display.
I was the bride he lost.
Now I am the woman who may cost him everything.
