The Arranged Wife He Loved Too Late (Belated Groveling)

A dutiful wife waits for her husband. I stopped waiting the second he carried his secretary out of the flames—and left me bleeding in the ashes.

Caroline
For two years, I played the perfect billionaire's wife. I ignored the vicious whispers about his glamorous assistant, convincing myself our cold, arranged marriage would eventually turn into love.

Then the exclusive private auction went up in smoke.

In the terrifying chaos, my husband fought through the screaming crowd, grabbed a woman in a dark blue dress, and pulled her to safety.

He didn't even look back.

I survived, but the woman who loved Alexander died in that rubble. My wedding ring is now sitting on his desk next to the signed divorce papers.

He made his choice in the dark. Now, he has to live with it.

Alexander
I thought I was saving my wife.

When the smoke cleared and I realized I had my assistant in my arms, my blood ran cold. But the real nightmare began when I rushed home to find nothing but an empty penthouse and my wife's wedding ring.

I treated our marriage like a business deal, taking her quiet devotion for granted. I thought she would always be there.

Now, she’s thousands of miles away, building a new life—and smiling at another man.

My billion-dollar empire means nothing without her. I will cross the world, strip away my pride, and spend the rest of my life on my knees if that’s what it takes to win her back.

This is a scorching standalone groveling romance guaranteed to break your heart and stitch it back together. No cheating, no cliffhangers, HEA guaranteed!
