Divorced the Billionaire, Returned with his Heir
Beatrice Moreau thought she had her life quietly figured out when she married a man eight years older than her—Cohen Reed. Two years later, she stepped into his company as a mere intern, keeping their marriage a secret while he ruled as its untouchable CEO.
In public, they were nothing but strangers.
In private, they were everything to each other.
But when the woman who once held Cohen’s heart returns, everything changes. Without hesitation, he asks for a divorce.
Beatrice doesn’t fight. She doesn’t beg. Instead, she signs the papers, hides the child growing inside her, and disappears overnight—taking her heartbreak with her.
Only when she’s gone does Cohen realize what he has truly lost. And by then, it’s far too late.
For five years, he searches like a man losing his mind.
Until the day she returns… no longer the woman he once knew, but someone stronger—someone untouchable.
And beside her stands a little boy who has his eyes.
This time, when Cohen corners her, his pride is gone, his voice breaking as he begs for the one thing he can’t control anymore..
“Beatrice… I’m begging you, come back to me.”

Chapter: Coincidence?By the time Beatrice and Daisy reached the lobby, it was already crowded with employees trying to catch a glimpse of the company’s mysterious top boss. People stood shoulder to shoulder, leaving them stuck near the corner with barely any view.“They’re way too eager,” Daisy whispered, trying to peek through the crowd. “At this rate, we won’t even see his face.”Beatrice tried standing on her toes but quickly gave up. “Forget it. Let’s just stay here.”Daisy leaned closer, lowering her voice. “I heard something the other day. Mr. Foster might cut you from the interns. Aren’t you going to do something?”Beatrice’s expression stiffened. She had worked hard to get into Sterling Capital—there was no way she would let herself be pushed out so easily.Just then, the noisy lobby suddenly fell silent. Everyone turned toward the entrance, and a group of executives walked in, but all Beatrice could see were glimpses of suits and movement.Then an idea came to her.Without hesitation, she turned

Chapter: Big BossBeatrice only glanced at him for a second before looking away, as if he wasn’t even there. Without saying a word, she headed upstairs to find his grandfather.The old man hated staying in the hospital. On the third day, he had insisted on coming home.“Grandpa,” Beatrice called softly as she stepped into the study, a sweet smile already on her face.“There you are,” Mr. Reed said warmly. “Cohen told me you were coming. Mrs. Carter made your favorite dishes. You need to eat more, you’re too thin.”Beatrice pinched her cheeks lightly and sighed. “If I eat any more, my face will get rounder.”“A round face is a blessing,” he said with a chuckle.She froze for a moment.Her own grandfather used to say the same thing. He would always tell her to eat more, that a round face meant good fortune, that she shouldn’t try to slim it down.“What’s wrong?” Mr. Reed asked.“I just… miss my grandpa,” she said quietly.If it weren’t for him insisting on finding her back then, she would’ve spent her wh

Chapter: Set UpThat night, Beatrice sat on her bed, gripping her phone tightly.“She set you up two years ago? Seriously, I didn’t expect her to be that calculating,” her friend’s voice came through the call, full of disbelief. “And people call her pure and innocent.”“I didn’t expect it either,” Beatrice said quietly.Now everything made sense. Why Cohen suddenly brought up divorce.That woman must have told him that Beatrice was the one who forced her away back then.And of course he would believe her. She was the one he had always loved.Back then, her grandfather was critically ill and wanted to see her get married before he passed. At that time , her boyfriend had just cheated on her.She agreed but Cohen refused.Then that woman approached her.Two million dollars. That was the price.If Beatrice paid, she would leave. Otherwise, she wouldn’t, and Cohen would never agree to marry her.With her grandfather’s condition worsening day by day, Beatrice had no choice.She wrote the check and the wom

Chapter: Two Years Ago“Not with you, obviously,” Beatrice said coldly, pulling her arm back.Cohen had already told her, he hadn’t touched that woman. She didn’t know why, but hearing that had given her a small, quiet sense of relief. Still, she wasn’t about to show it.“He’s a good man,” the woman said with a soft smile, completely unbothered. “He won’t cheat while he’s married. He told me he’ll marry me after you two divorce.”Beatrice let out a light laugh. “Then congratulations.”She wasn’t going to give her the reaction she wanted.The woman paused, clearly surprised. “You’re not angry?”“Oh, I am,” Beatrice said calmly. “But if you’re planning to wait for us to divorce, you might need to be patient.”“What do you mean?”Beatrice rested a hand lightly over her stomach, her lips curling slightly. “We’re planning to have a child first. After that… we’ll see. So take your time.”She didn’t wait for a response. She turned and walked away, leaving the woman standing there in stunned silence.A child?Cohe

Chapter: Trying for a BabyCohen glanced at her pale face and reached out, holding her hand without thinking. His voice softened slightly. “Don’t worry. He just fell and hurt his leg. It shouldn’t be serious.”Beatrice let out a breath she didn’t realize she was holding. “That’s good…”A few months ago, his grandfather had nearly died. The doctor said if he had arrived any later, he wouldn’t have made it. That memory still lingered in her mind.And a year ago, she had watched her own grandfather pass away right in front of her.She couldn’t bear to see something like that happen again.Then she suddenly realized that Cohen was holding her hand. Her fingers stiffened before she quickly pulled away.“The divorce…” he started.“You don’t have to worry,” Beatrice cut him off calmly. “I won’t use this as an excuse to delay it. Once Grandpa is discharged, we’ll go through with it.”Her tone was firm, leaving no room for misunderstanding.She remembered the agreement they signed when they got married. It was generous

Chapter: Divorce“Go to sleep. I need to take this,” Cohen said, avoiding her question as he picked up his phone and walked out of the bedroom.Beatrice lay there in silence, staring at the ceiling. Her chest felt tight like something was pressing down on it. She didn’t understand why he had to step outside just to answer a call… unless it was someone he didn’t want her to hear.Someone like… her.She turned to her side and closed her eyes, but the more she tried to sleep, the more restless she felt. After a while, she sat up, pulled the blanket aside, and grabbed her pillow. Without hesitation, she walked out of the room and into the guest bedroom next door.Nothing had changed.From the day they got married, she had always stayed here. The room still felt more like hers than the master bedroom ever did.She locked the door, turned off the lights, and lay down.“Stop thinking about it,” she whispered to herself, forcing her eyes shut.***The next morning, Beatrice woke up later than usual. It was S

Chapter: Connection“Did he really say that?!” Freesia exclaimed, her face crimson, as she was trying to suppress her laughter.My smile faded as I remembered what happened the night before.“Yes! It caught me off guard as well. Did I look bad last night?” I asked in astonishment.Freesia and I are currently in a coffee shop, where we decided to have a cup of coffee. It was already afternoon when we decided to stop by because we also woke up late due to a hangover.Desiree couldn’t join us because she had plans with her family, and Hailey is probably still sleeping because of all the alcohol she drank last night.“Well, Flavian has been like that ever since. Intimidating and aloof. And last night wasn’t the best time for you to be interested in him.” She replied.My brow furrowed in perplexity, “Why?”“Well, I just found out he broke up with his girlfriend.” She said as she sipped her coffee.“He’s got a girlfriend?” I asked in disbelief. I mean, he’s got good looks, but I didn’t think he could be in a r

Chapter: Greek God in Corporate AttireThe girls and I settle into the couch, making ourselves comfortable. I couldn’t stop glancing around the bar, hoping to catch sight of that guy from earlier…the one who made me feel things I wasn’t sure I wanted to feel.But he had vanished after our little conversation. Disappeared into the crowd without a trace.“I heard Free’s cousins are coming tonight,” Desiree says casually as she picks at an appetizer from our table.I raise an eyebrow, trying to focus on the conversation and not on my wandering thoughts. “Really? I didn’t know she was close with her paternal side,” I comment, taking a sip of my drink. “I always see her with her cousins from Aunt Fatima’s side, like Natasha.”“Well, apparently, they’re more focused on business. You know, the serious, no-nonsense types.”“Oh, so they’re boys?” Hailey chimes in.“If they are, I bet they’re middle-aged with wrinkles from sitting in an office all day,” I joke, making the girls laugh.But before I can continue with another joke, I h

Chapter: Mysterious Stranger“Hmm…” I make a fake moan as Cade—no, wait, maybe it was Wade—keeps kissing my neck. His warm breath fans against my skin, and I grab the back of his head, pressing him harder against me, like I’m encouraging him to take full advantage of the opportunity I’ve so generously provided.But the truth is, I’m already getting bored.This is supposed to be fun, right? A distraction? Yet, the excitement I’d hoped to find in this fleeting moment is fizzling out.His kisses are growing more eager, heading somewhere that I’m not planning to let him go. I gently pull away, slipping out of his embrace. His breathing is heavy, his hair disheveled, and I can see the lustful glint in his eyes. He thinks this is going somewhere.“Shall we continue this at my place?” he offers, a cocky smirk spreading across his lips.I chuckle. “I have plans tonight—”Before I can finish, my phone rings. Freesia’s name lights up the screen. Perfect timing.“Amber, where are you?!” Freesia’s voice is sharp on the othe

Chapter: Rejected for the First TimeThe café buzzes around me—laughter, the clinking of plates, whispers that are just loud enough to be heard. Eyes are on me, like always, but I’ve mastered the art of pretending not to notice. They watch, they whisper, but none of them know me.I look at the expensive watch on my wrist. That Marcus is already five minutes late. How dare he make me wait!“If he doesn’t show up in a minute, I’ll leave.” I whispered to myself. If it wasn’t just my father wanting me to try to date that guy who is his business partner’s son, I wouldn’t be here.The door chimes, and I glance up just in time to see Marcus approaching. He’s handsome, I’ll give him that. Tall, sharp features, and dressed in a formal attire. He looks like he’s stepped out of a high-end magazine, exactly the type my parents would approve of.But as soon as he sits down, I can feel the weight of his arrogance pressing on me. His smile is too easy, too practiced, and I already know how this is going to go.“Amber, right?” Marcus

Chapter: Let Me“This will be your room.”Valerio said it as he opened the door, stepping slightly aside to let Camilla walk in first.The second she stepped in, she stopped.“You’re serious?” she asked, her voice low, almost unsure.The room was big.Not just big, but wide enough that it didn’t feel crowded even with everything inside it. The bed alone looked like something out of a hotel, neatly arranged, soft looking sheets and pillows placed perfectly. There was a sitting area near the window, a couch, a table, even a rug that looked like no one had ever stepped on it before.There were cabinets built into the walls, a door that probably led to a bathroom, and everything looked… new.Camilla slowly walked further in, her eyes moving from one part of the room to another.Valerio walked in after her.“It’s yours while you’re here.”Camilla let out a quiet breath and looked around again.“I’ve never even stayed in a place like this before,” she admitted. “This feels like something people pay for… n

Chapter: ExtraordinaryAfter Valerio told them to sit, the room didn’t move right away. It was like everyone needed a second to process what they just heard.Camilla noticed it immediately.“You can sit,” she repeated, softer this time, trying to make it less tense. “It’s okay. We’re not doing anything formal here.”One of the maids glanced at another, then at Valerio again, like she was still waiting for confirmation.Valerio didn’t say anything else.Slowly, one of them pulled a chair. Then another, until the rest followed.All of them are hesitant and careful like they weren’t used to doing this at all.Camilla watched them, and a small smile formed on her face without her realizing it.“See?” she said quietly, almost to herself. “Not that hard.”She looked up and caught Valerio staring at her. Oh actually… watching her. She tilted her head slightly.“What?” she asked.“Nothing,” he said and avoided her eyes.Camilla narrowed her eyes a little but Valerio didn’t see it as he was busy reaching for his gl

Chapter: JoinThe car slowed down as it passed through a very huge and luxurious gate. They have been travelling for hours now and judging by the surroundings, they’re back in the city.Camilla immediately noticed how everything changed the moment they got inside. The noise from outside disappeared little by little, and even the air felt different as if everything here was kept in place on purpose. The guards by the entrance didn’t move much, but they were watching. She stayed quiet, her eyes following the path as they drove further in. The driveway was long, clean, and lined with lights that looked like they were placed exactly where they were meant to be. When the house came into full view, she found herself staring longer.It was huge… Not just in size but in presence.The structure stood tall with wide glass windows that reflected the fading light outside, making the entire place look even bigger than it already was. The walls were a mix of stone and polished surfaces. It’s clean and expen

Chapter: SafeCamilla looked at Valerio then at Adrian.Then back at Valerio again.“I’ll go with him, Adrian.”Adrian blinked like he didn’t hear her right.“What?”“I’m going with him,” she repeated, more clearly this time.“Camilla, wait,” Adrian said quickly, stepping closer. “You literally told me your baby’s father isn’t with you, that he’s not around. So what is this now? You’re just suddenly going to trust him and leave with him like nothing?”Camilla inhaled slowly.“I didn’t say I trust him,” she replied. “I said I’m going with him.”“That doesn’t make it any better,” Adrian shot back. “You don’t even know what you’re walking into. I don’t want you reacting that way because you’re scared right now.”Camilla shook her head.“I am scared,” she admitted. “And I think I have every reason to be.”She gestured slightly toward the direction the men ran off.“That wasn’t normal, Adrian. That wasn’t something we can just brush off and deal with later.”Adrian’s jaw tightened.“I know that,” he sai

Chapter: Come with Me“That won’t be necessary.”Adrian turned immediately, his body shifting slightly in front of Camilla without even realizing it.“Who are you?” Adrian asked sharply and in a protective tone.Camilla already knew who it was even before she turned. She knew. She knew that voice so well but she still turned to see.When she did, she wasn’t wrong, Valerio was standing there.He didn’t look like someone who had just arrived at the aftermath of something dangerous. He looked compose.But his eyes…His eyes were on her… and only her.Adrian stepped slightly forward.“I asked you something,” he said. “Who are you, and why are you here?”Valerio didn’t even look at him, not even once. He walked past Adrian like he was air..Camilla’s breath caught. Every step he took toward her felt heavier. He stopped right in front of her. Close enough that she could see the small tension in his jaw and the way his eyes scanned her.“I’m sorry,” he said quietly. “I’m sorry I was late.”Camilla blinked. The

Chapter: Saviors“She said stay away from her.”It came from one of the three men standing at the mouth of the alley. All of them were dressed in black, built like they could handle more than just a street fight. Camilla had never seen them before, but something about them made the situation shift instantly. They weren’t tense. They were just there, like they already knew how this would end.The man in front looked straight at the two men cornering Camilla.“Walk away now while I’ve got patience for the both of you,” he said.One of the attackers let out a short laugh, glancing at his partner.“And who the hell are you?” he asked. “You think you can just walk in and give orders like that?”The man didn’t answer. He just kept looking at him.That silence made the other man scoff.“Look, we’re not here to fight you,” he said, waving a hand like he was being reasonable. “We’ve got a job to do and it’s a big one. Someone paid good money for this woman. Really really good money.So don’t make this complic
