Chapter 90 Revenge–No One Gets to Be Happy! 

The next morning, when Nova walked downstairs, she ran into Kael, who was carrying breakfast out of the kitchen. 

she froze, then turned to leave–her body radiating cold distance. 

Nova!” Kael panicked, setting down the tray and hurrying to block her path. “I was wrong yesterday. From now on, I’ll always ask for your opinion before planning anything, okay?” 

He reached out to brush her fingers, his tone all syrupy. 

Jova stepped back, avoiding his touch. Her eyes were still slightly red from crying. 

ince, he’d been like this–obviously a cunning wolf, but acting like a golden retriever, clinging to her shamelessly. 

No need.” She stepped around him, walked to the living room, and reached for the water jug. 

tael’s heart felt uneasy. He followed her closely, snatching the jug from her hand to pour the water himself while studying her expression. 

Nova, wasn’t Maya supposed to be the spokesperson for your product?” 

lova’s expression flickered. 

es–Maya Serrano had been her original choice. But Kael had sabotaged the deal and given the endorsement to Sloane instead. 

he lowered her eyes, swallowing down the bitterness in her throat. 

ael set the glass of water on the table, then opened a drawer and pulled out a contract, handing it to her. 

I’m sorry for what I did before. I hurt you, and that was my mistake. Last night, I contacted Maya’s agency–she’s back on board. If you want her to be your 

pokesperson, I won’t stop you.” 

ova’s chest ached with bitterness. He’d slept with Sloane, felt guilty, and now was trying to make it up to her with an endorsement deal. What did he take her 

›r? 

he frowned and pushed his hand away. “Leave me alone. Don’t touch me.” 

ael grabbed her hand anyway, his voice suddenly lonely. “If you’re not happy with her, I can find someone else…” 

ova’s head snapped up. “No! You can’t!” 

ael’s face lit up–she was finally talking to him. “Okay, no changes. Everything’s up to you. I’ve already taken care of the contract–just sign it later. Maya’s team ill contact you to discuss the next steps.” 

is words should have comforted her, but they only made her heart ache more. 

his man knew her too well–he could read her wants from a single look. 

at unlike before, when his thoughtfulness had made her happy, now it just made her feel sad and angry. 

ova took a deep breath, pulling her hand away. “Leave the contract there. I’ll look at it later.” 

se couldn’t give up this deal. Maya had been her team’s top choice, and Sloane had only derailed their plans. For the sake of her team’s hard work–if not for erself–she had to take this chance. 

Okay, I’ll leave it. I’m just glad you’re feeling better.” Kael similed, his tone doting. 

e grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the dining room. “Let’s eat first. I made blueberry muffins–I saw you ate some yesterday, so I made more.” 

ova’s eyes darkened. She forced a faint smile.

Chapter 90 Revenge–No One Gets to Be Happy! 

After breakfast, Nova called Maya’s agent and arranged to meet and discuss work. 

Just as she was about to leave, a pair of warm hands covered her eyes from behind. 

Nova’s heart skipped a beat. “Kael…” 

“I have a small gift for you.” His voice was soft in her ear. “I hope my Nova gets everything she wants from now on.” 

Nova bit her lip, bitter. If only he knew–what she wanted most was for him to stay far away. 

Next, something cold and delicate fell around her neck. Kael fastened the clasp, his voice gentle. “You’ve always loved pink diamonds. This necklace is a one–of–a–kind design by a master.” 

Nova’s eyes widened. The necklace was stunning–tiny, glittering diamonds draped across her collarbone. 

Once, she would have thrown her arms around him, snuggled up in his arms, and started planning a surprise in return. But now, she was too tired–too drained to feel anything for this love that had long soured. 

“Thank you.” Her voice was flat, empty. 

Kael, still caught up in his joy, didn’t notice her sadness. He wrapped his arms around her waist. “It looks beautiful on you. Wear it always.” 

Nova forced herself to nod. Glancing at the time, she pulled away. “I’m meeting Maya’s agent at 11. I have to go.” 

She hurried toward the door, not looking back. 

As soon as she got in the car, the agent called. They confirmed their meeting at the Peace Hotel. 

Nova parked her car in the lot of the Peace Hotel and got out–only to run into an unexpected guest–Sloane. 

Sloane looked just as surprised. 

Nova’s expression turned cold. She ignored her and tried to walk past, but Sloane stepped in front of her, a smirk on her face. 

“Wait.” 

Nova’s eyes turned icy. She pushed Sloane’s hand away. “Smart folks don’t get in the way.” 

Sloane’s face darkened, but she quickly replaced her scowl with a smile. 

She looked Nova up and down, sneering. “What’s wrong? Too embarrassed to wear that fake dress today, so you’re wearing a second–hand necklace instead? 

“Nova, you’ve really fallen so far,” 

Nova froze. She looked down at the necklace, a ridiculous thought crossing her mind. 

Sloane sauntered over, her tone dripping with contempt. 

“Kael really doesn’t respect you as his wife, does he? Why can’t he even give you something nice?” 

Bang! 

Nova’s head spun, her face pale, “What do you mean?” She instantly regretted asking–humiliation burned her lips. 

Sloane grinned, “This necklace? I threw it away. I can’t believe Kael picked it up and gave it to you. How funny–last time he gave you a fake, this time a 

hand me down. 

“Nova, you’re so worthless.” 

Nova’s throat felt tight. She wanted to argue, but no words came out. Sloane put on an Innocent expression. “Kael can’t even be bothered to put effort into lying to you. I feel sorry for you. Tell you what–I have lots of jewelry Kael bought me. I can give you a few pieces if you want.”

This was cruelty at its finest–killing with words. 

Humiliation, anger, and shame surged through Nova’s chest, overwhelming her. Her face turned as white as a sheet. 

If she hadn’t worn makeup, she would have looked utterly haggard. 

she stumbled, grabbing the wall for support. Her gaze fell on the pink diamond necklace around her neck, and her eyes burned with tears. 

The memory of Kael gently putting it on her an hour ago, telling her he hoped she’d get everything she wanted–it played on a loop in her mind. 

How ridiculous! She’d even felt a flicker of hope then. 

t turned out he’d just given her something his mistress had discarded. 

Am I his trash can? 

Jova’s eyes filled with tears. She suddenly reached up, grabbed the necklace, and tore it off–ignoring the sharp pain as it scraped her collarbone. The necklace ell to the ground. 

loane watched, her smile widening. She took off her pearl earrings–worth $200 thousand, according to her–and threw them at Nova’s feet. “Here. I only wore hese once–Kael bought them for me at an auction. Think of it as charity. From now on, stop acting like a fool and wearing other people’s garbage.” 

he earrings clattered to the floor. 

lova’s eyes widened. In that moment, it felt like her dignity had been trampled underfoot. 

I was too much! Too humiliating!
