Jilted Girlfriend? I Am The Tycoon's Wife

Cara Lewis sat quietly as her boyfriend of three years pushed a plate of dessert across the table, wearing a rehearsed mask of sorrow.

He claimed he had to break up with her for her own good, blaming his lack of connections on Wall Street and insisting he couldn't give her the life she deserved.

He acted like a martyr making a tragic sacrifice, waiting for her desperate tears and trembling denial.

Instead, Cara calmly pulled out a stack of glossy photos and an elegant engagement invitation.

She exposed his secret affair with the wealthy Hailie Lewis, completely dismantling his hypocritical social climb.

Leaving the cheating narcissist pale and humiliated, Cara paid the bill and walked out, thinking the trash had finally been taken out.

But her newly single evening took a chaotic turn when a teenage gaming partner called in a panic.

He begged her to crash his elite prep school and pose as his aunt to save him from expulsion.

Cara agreed, flawlessly playing the role of the secret new wife to his uncle, a notoriously ruthless Wall Street titan.

She was thoroughly dominating the snobby school board when the office doors suddenly swung open.

The real billionaire uncle, Beck Greer, walked into the room.

Cara's heart dropped into her stomach as his glacial eyes locked onto her, knowing her social existence in New York was about to end.

Caught in a terrifying, inescapable lie, Cara made an insane calculation.

She stepped forward, firmly hooked her arm through the billionaire's, and smiled sweetly.

"Honey, what took you so long? Julian and I were being bullied."

She waited for the executioner's axe to fall, but the untouchable tycoon simply covered her hand with his and played along.
