I don’t want him back: Divorcing the Billionaire
She signed the divorce papers. He never signed away his obsession.
Veronica Stanford was the perfect wife—devoted, patient, and hopelessly in love. But when her billionaire husband, Jason Harper, trades her in for her treacherous best friend, Rhea, Veronica’s world shatters. Broken and betrayed, she drowns her sorrows in a bar, only to be saved by a dangerously alluring stranger with emerald-green eyes and a lethal reputation: Monte "Four" Zagcanni, the ruthless heir to a mafia empire.
And neither plays nice.
Four is everything Jason isn’t—dark, dangerous, and devastatingly protective. When Veronica discovers she’s pregnant with Jason’s child, she strikes a deal with Four: a fake marriage to shield her from scandal. But what starts as a cold arrangement ignites into a passion neither can resist.
Jason, realizing his mistake too late, wants Veronica back—along with the son he never knew existed. But Four isn’t a man who surrenders what’s his. And Veronica? She’s done being the meek wife.
Betrayal runs deep. Revenge burns hotter.
As secrets unravel—her father’s bloody past, Rhea’s twisted obsession, and Jason’s deadly lies—Veronica must decide: trust the man who destroyed her once, or surrender to the devil who might destroy her forever.
One wants her back. The other wants her forever.

Chapter: Chapter 92Jason's POV. “What is this?” I seized the piece of paper in my hand, the words written on it not more than a hundred, yet the hairs at the back of my neck. Quickly, I flung it away.Rebecca rushed to retrieve it, curiosity burned in her eyes to see what frightened me so much, she saw my demure shift from the calm composed me to something violent.In under a second.I stood from the chair I was seated on. My movement was swift, and the guard who'd brought me the information almost didn't see me. I was by his side in a second, gripping his collar tight.His eyes almost popped out of their sockets, his face red, he trembled under my grip, shivering for his life.“How dare you bring me so much rubbish?” I growled loudly.He shrank next to me, whimpering, “Sir, I'm just a common guard. I was asked to bring this to you, I have no part in this.”He was right but that didn't exempt him from the foolishness of his master, the very man who'd promised me he had something good on Four and could

Chapter: Chapter 91Veronica’s POV. Silence detonated between us and in that silence, Four changed. It was subtle, anyone else might have missed it. But I had spent enough time around him now to recognise the shift: the internal door closing, the walls sliding back into place, the distance he wore like armour settling over him again.And I knew instantly what I had done. I had crossed something. My journey has crossed it for me.Something in him hardened, not explosively, not cruelly but with that terrifying, absolute control that meant there would be no arguing with whatever came next.When he spoke, his voice was low and even. “You do not get jealous.”The words landed softly. They still cut. Heat rushed to my face. “I—”He lifted a hand once, not touching me, just stopping the sentence before it formed. “No.” He said quietly.The denial wasn't loud. It didn't need to be. It carried finality in a way that made my throat tighten.I stared at him, pulse loud in my ears. “I didn't say I had a right to be

Chapter: Chapter 90Veronica’s POV. Four, I thought as the silence returned. That man would not be the death of me. I stayed in the chair long after Mia’s footsteps faded down the hallway. The suite felt too large again, the quiet stretching in uncomfortable layers around me. The faint hum of the city filtered through the glass, distant traffic and muted horns, life moving on outside while something inside me refused to settle.I stared at the door she had just closed behind her. Together. The word kept echoing unwanted and sharp.We were together but only briefly. My throat tightened. I leaned back slowly, pressing my head against the chair, eyes fixed on the ceiling. The chandelier above fractured light into soft gold shards that trembled across the plaster and for a moment I focused on them just to keep my thoughts from sliding back into the same place.But they went anyway. Her arm brushes his. That photo. The ease in her posture beside him. Not cautious, not uncertain. They definitely had somethin

Chapter: Chapter 89Veronica’s POV. The day passed in a blur of muted sunlight and half-hearted attempts to focus. I had tried to eat, tried to scroll through the endless notifications from my assistant, Lily, and even tried to nap but my thoughts refused rest.Every time I closed my eyes, I kept seeing the girl— Mia.Her small frame and curious eyes, the way she smiled when she was confused, almost shyly. She looked happy, almost like she wished Four was hers.I had to know.The curiosity twisted inside me like a blade. Who was this girl? Really?How long has she been in Four’s life before me?Why had he brought her here? And why had she lingered so closely, so comfortably, why was she still around him?I started small. The Internet offered nothing directly about Mia's name. It came up in obscure forums, mentions of modelling work, some charity events, and an old photo where she stood near Four at a gala. She had been around him before I ever came into the picture. My chest tightened at the thought.J

Chapter: Chapter 88Veronica’s POV A knock on the door disrupted our lovely chat. The girl twisted her head, attention focused on the door.“You have a visitor.”“Must be Four. There's no one else I’m expecting.”“I'll have a look.” The locks clicked, the hinges squeaked, and a shoulder poked inside. Four was back.“Hey.”“Welcome Mr Four” her voice was far softer than I’d heard since she'd come. Four ignored her, a casual nod to her greeting and then his gaze shifted to the bed where I was“How are you feeling? Gotten something to eat?”“I have,” I observed how he walked in. Lazy, bent over to slouch but his voice was still as sharp as when he left. “I fixed the Jason problem.”Jason's problem? I stared blankly at him, pressing my eyelids hard, a signal of the third presence with us. “We can talk about that later, don't you think?”“Mia is one of us, no need to worry.” He sighed, took his jacket off and handed it to her. “Have this cleaned, I'll need it by morning.”“Yes Mr Four.” she bowed slightly.

Chapter: Chapter 87Veronica's POV The blood was from me.A cut I got while running. My dress should have hooked tightly on the door on one of those days and I scratched myself while we ran.So much for being careful. I guess I wasn't as fast as I thought I was. An hour had gone by and Four wasn't back. No call, no text message, just the sound of the television playing in the background while I lay in bed, eyes pinned on the ceiling, lost in my thoughts.My phone beeped a couple of times, and my assistant, Lily still tried to update me as much as she could with everything going on.The nettings in the company, the staff and their concerns for me, their employer. The material I ordered from Italy had just landed, along with some good designers I was meant to be meeting today.A lot of work still pended from the last night Four and I went for the showoff but there was nothing I could do to handle it.I felt a kick in my stomach, I gasped, searching down to find it. It happened again, faster this time, wi
