He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!

He Divorced Me, I Marry A Bigger Billionaire!

"Sign this. We're done." Aaliyah Monroe thought she’d found love with a rising billionaire, Henry Smith—until he blindsided her with divorce papers on their fourth anniversary, revealing her twin sister, Aurora, as his true love. Betrayed and cast out, Aaliyah drowns her fury in a nightclub, where she meets Orrin Hayes, a billionaire mogul who falls for her instantly. He offers her a deal– “Aaliyah, I’m smitten. You’re fire, and I want to burn. Marry me.” She froze as her heart tripped. “What?” “Not for love, not yet,” he said with his eyes glinting. “A deal. You want revenge on Henry and Aurora? I’ve got the power to crush them. Marry me, and I’m yours—my money, my connections, my everything. We’ll make them beg.” She stared, the whiskey clouded her head but not her judgment. The idea was insane, but it lit a spark. Henry’s face on that stage and Aurora’s smirk—they deserved to fall. And Orrin? He was a weapon, wrapped in charm and danger. “You’re serious?” she asked, testing him. “Dead serious.” He took her hand into his, gently. “I’m half in love with you already. Say yes, and we’ll shake the world.” She laughed, the sound was shaky but real. “You’re crazy. But… okay. Yes.” Aaliyah agreed. But there was one thing she was yet to inform this charming yet mischievous Billionaire suggesting marriage to her– she's carrying her ex husband’s child. Will she successfully use him to climb the ladder and get her revenge despite having a child for her ex-husband? Or will a second chance in love surface?

Chapter: Chapter 116
Aaliyah’s POVThe air in the hospital room felt thick and too heavy for the cool temperature the vents pushed out in a low hum. My pulse was still running too fast from everything that had happened. I sat at the edge of the bed, my hands clenched together in my lap, while Henry stood a few feet away, as though he was giving me space. But space no longer mattered that much now that I suspected him.As far as I can remember, Henry's company is still suffering from the damage I caused. It made more sense that this could be a revenge scheme.I needed answers and I needed them now.I turned my head slowly toward him, taking in the way he looked, immaculate as always in that annoyingly perfect tailored suit, hair swept back neatly, expression somewhere between wary and concerned. He was trying to read me. He’d always been good at that. But not anymore.“Was it you?” I asked, my voice low but bold enough to cut through the silence.His brow furrowed, lips parting in confusion. “Was… what m

Aaliyah’s POVThe quiet hum of the hospital room felt deafening after Lisa’s last words.Not only had someone stolen seventy million dollars from me—seventy million—they were actively sabotaging my company.The number alone made my stomach clench. Seventy million wasn’t just some unfortunate accounting error—it was huge.Even for someone like Orrin, it was a figure that commanded attention. Not to talk of me—a newcomer still carving my name into an industry of sharks, it was a gaping wound.I blinked at her as if my brain couldn’t quite wrap itself around the shape of what she’d said. “Someone’s trying to sabotage me?” The word scraped out of my throat.Lisa’s gaze locked on mine. Her eyes were wide, but her voice was steady, careful, almost like she was talking to a patient with a head injury—which, in a way, I was. “Yes. This isn’t just theft, Aaliyah. This… this is calculated. Someone’s trying to ruin you. Not just financially, but publicly.”Her words slipped under my skin, cold

Aaliyah’s POVBlackmail?For a moment, the word cut through everything else —the dull ache in my ribs, the throbbing at my temple that hadn’t stopped since the accident. My chest rose, and I found myself staring at him, my breath caught somewhere halfway out.“What did she blackmail you with?” My voice came out low but sharper than I meant, but I couldn’t help it.I had every right to know. After all the ways he’d torn my heart apart tonight. First with betrayal, now with this cryptic half-truth, I was owed the rest of the story.And if I’d be honest with myself, there was a part of me, a small, stubborn, foolish part, that wanted to believe there was something here worth salvaging.That what I saw in that hotel room wasn’t the whole truth.His eyes flickered.I saw the hesitation right away. The tiny pause. The almost-imperceptible way his Adam's apple moved as he swallowed.“Orrin.” I said his name like a demand. “What did she blackmail you with?”He opened his mouth, and I leaned

Chapter: Chapter 113
Orrin's POV I walked into the hospital lab with the kind of hollow determination that felt like a bad joke. My chest still stung from the image of Aaliyah with her eyes burning a hole right through me. I’d left the ward raw with anger at Bridget and at myself, and now I needed something concrete to hold on to. Proof. Anything that would give me a chance to be believed.A tech at the reception glanced up, rapped a few keys, and without condescension, informed me they’d be ready for the samples in five minutes. I watched a nurse push a stretcher with wheeled legs through the corridor, her shoes squeaking on tile.“Mr. Hayes?” a young woman in scrubs called when I stepped into the small recessed area reserved for specimen collection. Her name tag read LUCY. She had the professional composure of someone who’d seen everything and been asked to not react to most of it.“Yes,” I said. “Thank you.”She handed me a consent form first. I signed without reading more than the top line. T

Chapter: Charles 112
Orrin’s POVLisa and I had barely stepped out of the elevator when the faint antiseptic scent of the hospital hit me harder than I expected. The corridor ahead was quiet except for the distant shuffle of nurses’ shoes and the soft beep of some machine in a nearby room.Lisa walked briskly ahead, glancing at the room numbers as we passed. My chest was tight the whole way, not from the walk but from what I was about to face. Aaliyah.My head was throbbing due to the surge of thoughts in and out. Is she okay? I wonder what happened, how it happened. But deep down, guilt clawed at me because it might just be because of me that she ended up here. Because of my foolishness and recklessness.But just maybe, I'll get a chance to explain everything. But that fragile hope sat uneasy in my gut, because what if she wouldn’t even look at me?When we reached the right door, Lisa hesitated just long enough for me to catch the flicker of apprehension in her eyes before she pushed it open.And that’s

Henry’s POV“Leave.”The word was laced with the kind of venom that could cut me in half.I should have expected this reaction. I don't know what made me think just an accident would make her listen to me just once, make her allow me to stay by her side again.The word should’ve been enough to make me walk away.It should’ve been the cue for me to step back, respect her boundaries, and vanish from her line of sight.But I didn’t. I didn't want to.“No,” I said quietly, shaking my head. My voice came out rougher than I intended. “I’m not going anywhere.”Her eyes narrowed a fraction, like she was trying to summon the strength to glare properly, but her exhaustion betrayed her.“I’ll be by your side,” I continued, leaning forward so my words didn’t echo too far beyond us. “Until you’re fine again. Completely fine. And I don’t care what…Orrin Hayes has to say about it.”The moment his name left my lips, her expression hardened like stone. It was subtle but impossible to miss. There was a

Chapter: Chapter 78
It was a beautiful wedding day, set in a charming open area surrounded by tall, swaying palm trees that gently rustled in the warm breeze. The sun shone brightly, casting a soft glow over the small gathering of finely decorated chairs and tables. The decorations were simple yet elegant, perfectly complementing the serene atmosphere. White linen draped gracefully over golden chairs, each adorned with delicate sprigs of greenery and small white flowers, adding a touch of nature to the setting. A golden arch stood at the front, decorated with flowing white fabric and clusters of vibrant blooms in soft pastel colours. The small tables were dressed in light-coloured tablecloths, each holding a single vase filled with fresh flowers, bringing a pop of colour to the scene. Flickering candles were placed on the tables, ready to light up as the sun began to set, casting a warm and inviting glow. Steadily, the guests began to find their seats, creating a cozy atmosphere filled wit

SIX MONTHS LATER “There has once again been a notable increase in the stock sales of the F&S corporation, which is currently in partnership with the well-known Te-Sumi company. The stocks are rising at a remarkably fast pace, and it is advisable for anyone interested to—”The driver lowered the volume of the radio as the passenger he was carrying wanted to make a phone call.Seated behind him was Mr. Te-Sumi, accompanied by another man who was the one making the call. After finishing his conversation, the man turned to his boss, Mr. Te-Sumi.“I believe we don’t need to attend the meeting anymore, sir,” the man said confidently. Mr. Te-Sumi raised an eyebrow, indicating that he was curious and wanted to hear more about this statement.“Mr. Sullivan has finally woken up. With that, there’s no longer a need for us to meet with the board to discuss the idea of bringing in a new chairman,” the man explained, a hint of relief in his voice.Mr. Te-Sumi nodded in understanding. “I see your p

Serena slowly opened her eyes to find herself staring at a bright white ceiling. A delicate chandelier hung gracefully from above, casting soft light around the room. She felt the tightness of an oxygen mask over her face, and a wave of dizziness and nausea washed over her. Confusion filled her mind as she wondered, where was she?It was obvious she was in a hospital ward, the sound of a beeping monitor beside her providing a rhythmic backdrop to her thoughts. She attempted to sit up, but her body felt heavy and unresponsive. What had happened to her?As she lay there, still and quiet, her memories began to flood back. She recalled the terrifying moment when Elene had her in a chokehold, while Frederick desperately tried to save her. She remembered they were talking a lot, but Serena could barely hear them as she struggled to break free from Elene’s tight grip. That was when Elene shot her and she collapsed.She attempted to lift her body once again, but it felt impossible. “Troy?

A scoff slipped out from Elene’s lips. “After all these years, Frederick, it really took you this long to remember?”“You’ve changed so much,” he replied, trying to process his memories.“I had to change. It was necessary for me to stay close to you without raising any suspicions. Now, where were we? Ah, yes. I was about to ask you to leave peacefully, or else it won’t just be Serena who gets hurt.”Frederick let out a sigh. “I’m afraid I can’t do that. I can’t leave her.”Elene’s expression hardened, her brows knitting together in fury. “Oh, so you’re declaring war between us right now, are you?”“There won’t be any war, Elene. You need to let Serena go, and we can sort out whatever issues we have between us, like—”But before he could finish, a loud gunshot rang out, followed by a piercing scream from Serena. Elene had shot her in the other leg.“Serena!” Frederick shouted, sprinting towards her despite Elene now aiming the gun at him. Just as she was about to pull the trigger, Fred

After the reunion, Frederick turned to one of the men who had come with him and instructed him to take Dhoti and Troy outside for their safety until he could return with Serena.However, Dhoti was not on board with this plan. “I want to go with you. Serena is still somewhere in here and I can't just leave her behind,” she said, her voice filled with desperation and concern.“Sir,” one of the armed men called out to Frederick, “the rest of our team has arrived.”Frederick nodded in acknowledgment. “Make sure to inform them to carefully observe the entire building. Search every nook and cranny and ensure that everyone is accounted for,” he instructed the man, who then stepped away to communicate via a burner phone.Frederick then turned his attention to Dhoti, speaking earnestly, “I care for Serena just as much as you do– and I love her deeply. You have to trust me, Dhoti. I will bring her back safely.”Dhoti hesitated for a moment, weighing her options, but eventually nodded, albeit re

The room was cast in a soft, dim light, but the entrance remained shrouded in shadows. As the figure who had spoken stepped further inside, the first thing that caught Serena's eye was a striking head of red bobbed hair.That alone made Serena freeze on the spot, confusion setting over her as a sense of realisation and surprise washed her.As the light illuminated the person’s face, Serena confirmed it– Elene.Her eyes widened in disbelief, and her heart began to race uncontrollably. “It’s you?” she whispered, still grappling with the shock of seeing her.Troy pulled his mother closer to him, clearly frightened by the familiar face that had just emerged. Serena noticed his reaction and shot a fierce glare at Elene.“What have you done to my son?” she demanded, her voice laced with anger and fear.Elene simply smiled, a chilling expression that sent shivers down Serena's spine. “Oh him? Well, let me see how I can explain this. We had a little game, and he pissed me off, so I decided t

Reborn Heiress: His Obsession

Reborn Heiress: His Obsession

“You don’t scare me, Llewellyn,” I lifted my chin as I spoke even though my pulse betrayed me. Cesare’s lips curved into a slow, wicked smirk as he stepped closer and spoke in a husky murmur. “That’s the problem, Rose… maybe you should be. Because I’m done pretending I don’t want you. I’ll have you—whether you let me or not.” My breath caught and anger and heat surged in my chest. “But you’ve always hated me.” His fingers brushed my jaw, tilting my face up to his. I felt my skin tingle and goosebumps rising. “Hate?” His gaze burned into mine. “Sweetheart, I’ve never hated you. I’ve only wanted you so much it felt like war.” ~~~~~~~~~ –Love was her rebellion.

Chapter: Chapter 35: Just An Allergy
Rosette’s point of view ~~~James emerged from the crowd like a well-timed stagehand, his expression tight but practiced. He went straight to the man still standing in front of me who was tall, mid-forties, the kind of face that was forgettable until you noticed the cut of his suit and the quiet arrogance in his stance.“Mr. Carson,” James said, voice dripping with polite apology, “please forgive the misunderstanding. It was… a momentary overreaction.”Momentary overreaction? My eyes flicked to him, then to the stranger, then to Cesare, who still had his arm braced around me like I was some fragile vase.Mr. Carson gave James a thin smile, though his eyes stayed fixed on me. “No harm done,” he said, but the tone told me there was harm done—at least to his pride. Men like him always stored their grudges like fine wine, to uncork at the perfect moment.It didn’t take more than the way James spoke to him, the subtle bow of his head, for me to understand that this man was of some impor

Chapter: Chapter 34: The Cemetery
Rosette's point of view ~~~The drive to the cemetery was quick. I didn't speak. Neither did he.When we finally slowed down, I recognized the place immediately from many years ago. It was on this same soil that my mother was buried. It hadn't changed that much.The wrought iron gates stood wide, their black paint gleaming, welcoming cars into the paved loop that circled the cemetery grounds. Past the gates, rows of tall oaks stretched their branches toward the sky like dark, solemn guardians. The grass was impossibly green, the kind of color that made you think of summer picnics—except today, it only looked cruel.Cesare eased the car to the curb, but when I reached for the handle, his voice stopped me.“Wait.”I froze, glancing at him over my shoulder. “What?”He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he killed the engine, stepped out, and came around the car. I watched his tall, huge, frame move with his black shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing a very small tattoo tha

Chapter: Chapter 33: Dirty Book with a Clean Cover
Rosette’s point of view ~~~By the time Cesare finally pulled out of me, my body was still buzzing. My skin prickled with leftover tremors I didn’t want to admit to. My heartbeat still thudded in my ears, embarrassingly out of sync with my breathing.I sat up slowly, dragging my gaze to him. He was already reaching for his briefs like nothing earth-shattering had just happened, like my body wasn’t still trying to remember how to exist.“You’re an asshole, you know that, right?” I said flatly, my voice still slightly hoarse from… yeah, I wasn’t going to finish that thought.He didn’t even look offended. In fact, the corner of his mouth tilted upward in a lazy, almost satisfied curve as he clipped his belt in place. Then he took two slow steps toward me, leaned down with both hands braced on either side of me, boxing me in.“And you,” his voice dropped to that maddeningly low rumble, “just fucked an asshole. So… what does that make you, sweetheart?”“Temporarily insane,” I shot back

Chapter: Chapter 32: This red-fucking-flag of a man.
Rosette's point of view~~~At the sight of his glorious manhood, my body trembled with a need I couldn’t suppress. His ice-gray eyes locked onto mine like a hunter claiming his prize. I felt small beneath him.“You’re mine, Rose,” he growled, his voice a deep rumble that sent shivers down my spine. He stepped closer, his hands gripping my thighs, spreading them wider as he positioned himself between my legs. The dominance in his touch was undeniable. His fingers dug into my flesh with a possessiveness that made my heart race. “No one else gets to have you like this—ever.”His words seared into my soul, and I nodded weakly, my voice lost in the overwhelming pleasure that enveloped me.“Cesare, please…” I whispered, my tone soft and pleading. He chuckled, a dark, satisfied sound, and leaned over me, his chest brushing against my blouse as he captured my lips. His tongue invaded my mouth again and it left me gasping. My hands instinctively reached to clutch his shoulders. He pull

Chapter: Chapter 31: Bloody Please
Rosette's point of view ~~~“This time… I want you to beg for it.” How ironic. Moments ago, I was keen on staying away from this man. Now, I'm shamelessly going to beg him to fuck me?I couldn’t think straight. Every rational thought drowned in the unbearable need between my thighs.My eyes darted to his hardened cock still below his belt and I swallowed. If I don't turn away now, there would be no going back.But I want this. I want this man who I shouldn't want. If we do this, there's more possibility that it'll end in a disaster. But I don't care right now.My eyelids fluttered and I lowered my head, my lips parting as a shaky “Please…” escaped me, barely audible.His hand shot to my chin, tilting my face up until our eyes met. The lust in his icy, gray eyes mirrored mine, but his was deeper like a rooted, dark, hunger that seemed to burn from his soul. “I didn’t hear you,” he murmured. “Beg like your life depends on it.” And God help me, it did. If I didn’t have him now—if

Chapter: Chapter 30: I Want You To Beg For It
Rosette's Point of View ~~~"What did you just say?"My voice came out smaller than I wanted. My feet stilled and my hand curled around the edge of the hospital bed as I stared at Cesare—his frame leaning casually against me as his words still hung in the air.He didn’t flinch. Didn’t blink. His smile didn’t falter either."I said," he repeated, his tone maddeningly calm, "we're finally alone."I gaped at him. Then laughed—loud, bitter and hollow."You’re insane. Actually, clinically unwell. Do you know where you just came from? You were in a goddamn police station, Cesare. Minutes ago. On the verge of being charged with attempted murder. And that's what you have to say to me? That we're finally alone?"He pushed off and took a single step away from me, his gaze locked on mine. "Attempted murder's only a problem if you don’t pull it off. I pulled some strings so the police are not a problem. He’s not dead... yet. But he will be."My breath caught. The smile on his face didn’t match t
