My Ex Humiliated Me at His Lavish Wedding, so I Called My Billionaire Father
Previously: When my arrogant ex-husband forced me to my knees at his high-society wedding, accusing me of theft, he had no idea who my father really was—or what he could do.
A Kingdom Crumbles
Arthur Brooks, Jennifer’s father, stepped forward, his hands trembling. He knew what Ryan did not: his entire real estate empire was currently being kept afloat by a multi-million dollar loan from Miller Conglomerate. If Charles pulled that funding, the Brooks family would be bankrupt by morning.
"Mr. Miller, please, there has been a terrible misunderstanding!" Arthur pleaded, sweat breaking out on his forehead. "Your daughter was accused of stealing Jennifer's diamond bracelet..."
Before Arthur could finish, Charles’s head of security stepped forward, holding a tablet. He tapped the screen and turned it toward the crowd. The security footage from the bridal suite played in high-definition. It clearly showed Jennifer Brooks herself slipping the diamond bracelet into Sarah’s silver clutch while Sarah was distracted, planning to use the theft to humiliate her husband's ex-wife.
A collective gasp rippled through the guests. Jennifer turned pale, clutching her white lace skirt in terror, while Ryan looked at his new bride in utter horror. He had thrown away a life with the daughter of the most powerful man in the city for a family of fraud and impending ruin.
"As of this moment," Charles Miller announced, his voice carrying the weight of an executioner's axe, "I am pulling all investment from Brooks Enterprises. Furthermore, since my company owns this estate, you have exactly ten minutes to vacate the premises before my security team removes you for trespassing."
Ryan fell to his knees, the very position he had forced Sarah into moments earlier. He looked up at Sarah, begging for mercy with his eyes. But Sarah only looked at him with quiet pity. She turned her back on him, walking out of the ruined ballroom arm-in-arm with her father, ready to start a beautiful new life with her child.
True wealth is not found in the greed of those who climb over others, but in the fierce loyalty of the family that stands by you when the world turns its back.
