A Ruthless Revenge: the Billionaire's Ex Wife Is Back CHAPTER 149
Harper’s POVI hated that he could still do this to me—stand there, say two words, and leave me feeling crazy. I swallowed the heat crawling up my neck and rolled my eyes, forcing a shrug like I didn’t care. Like I hadn’t just been pinned between him and a wall with every nerve in my body firing off insanely. I cleared my throat, deliberately. “You’re blocking the way.”Michael stepped back, just barely. Air rushed into my lungs like I’d been drowning. God.I tugged my jacket into place and lifted my chin. “Didn’t you say you’re staying here too? At this hotel?”His jaw ticked, but he nodded once.I waved vaguely toward the hallway. “Then yeah. You should go. Wherever.”I didn’t look at him. Couldn’t. I was too busy trying to keep my voice even, like I hadn’t just shattered into a thousand pieces under his gaze.Michael glared at me, and for a second, I thought he might yell—his eyes were lit with fire, not the slow kind, but the dangerous kind, the kind that scorched.But then—Bef

Celeste’s POVThe shot burned my throat in the best way possible. Or maybe the worst.I slammed the empty glass on the counter with more force than necessary. The bartender eyed me warily as he wiped the sweat from his temple.“Another?” he asked, already reaching for the bottle.I nodded. “Let’s kill the bottle, Jett-with-two-Ts. Or is it one?”He laughed nervously. “It’s one T, actually.”“Of course it is,” I muttered. “You look like a one-T kind of guy.”He poured the next shot without further questions. Smart man.Because I wasn’t in the mood for questions. Not tonight.Not when my pride had just been flattened by a man I almost forgave.Forgive Damien Sinclair? What the hell was I thinking?I tossed the next shot back like it was water.“Easy there,” someone beside me muttered.I whipped around and stared blearily at a stranger—balding, mid-40s, with the unfortunate face of someone who thought saying things like easy there would help anyone.“You know what’s not easy?” I slurred,

Celeste’s POVThe door jingled softly behind me as I stepped out of the café, the warm scent of sugar and espresso trailing after me. The sun had dipped lower, casting a golden glow on everything it touched—the pavement, the benches, the rooftops, the little pink box cradled in my hands.I smiled to myself, already imagining the look on Damien’s face.Foxes. The cupcakes were topped with little frosting foxes—playful, sly, a little smug. They were ridiculously cute, which was exactly the point. I remembered teasing him once, not long after we’d met, that if he had a spirit animal, it would be a fox.“Mischievous, clever, the kind that always looks like he knows more than he’s saying,” I’d said with a grin.He’d rolled his eyes, but I saw the corner of his mouth twitch.“And secretly soft under all that fur,” I’d added. “But you didn’t hear that from me.”Back then, what I only knew about him was this—he was sharp. A natural leader in business. Confident, decisive. Yeah, he came with a

Damien’s POVI didn’t move.I figured if I just stayed put and acted disinterested, maybe she’d take the hint and walk the other way. But of course, Leighton was never really one for hints.She strutted straight across the street and plopped down beside me on the bench like she owned the damn thing—like the whole block had been waiting for her grand entrance.“Fancy seeing you here,” she chirped, all gloss and confidence, as if she’d never been a trainwreck before this. I didn’t say anything at first, just glanced toward the café window again.Celeste is still inside.Thank God.“You look like you swallowed a grenade,” Leighton said, nudging my arm. “Relax. I’m not here to blow anything up.”Could’ve fooled me.She pulled off her sunglasses and flashed me a brilliant smile. “I just… wanted to say thank you.”I blinked, caught off guard. “For what?”“For everything,” she said, a little more quietly. “For getting my uncle off my back. For making sure Tommy and the rest of those Black R

Damien’s POVThe sky was that perfect soft shade of late afternoon—dusky blue bleeding into gold—and the pavement was warm beneath our feet.We didn’t say much. But we didn’t need to.I walked beside Celeste, just a step behind her at times, letting the rhythm of our footsteps fill the silence. No gunfire. No threats. No one screaming my name. Just the sound of the city winding down, the soft breeze brushing against our jackets, and her presence steady and close.God, I wanted to bottle this moment and live in it for a while.No mafia headaches. No hospital lectures. No family madness. No Genevieve.Just her. And me.And peace—for once.I glanced at her, stealing a moment while she wasn’t looking. The way the sunlight caught in her hair. The slight crease in her brow like she was still caught in some deep thought. What was going on in that head of hers? She hadn't said much since we left the hospital, and I didn’t dare break the spell. I wanted her to stay here beside me a little long

Celeste’s POVThe fluorescent lights in the hallway felt colder than they had a few minutes ago. Or maybe it was just me—rattled, confused, and already regretting everything.Damien didn’t say a word as he led me away from the room, one hand lightly pressing against my back. I could still feel the imprint of her fingers on my wrist, still hear the way she cried out Genevieve’s name and not mine. And when she did finally look at me—really see me—it was only to beg for silence. Not love. Not forgiveness.I stared down at the tiled floor as we walked. Maybe coming here had been a mistake.And yet… a small part of me was still wondering what Damien was doing here. He always seemed to show up at the strangest moments. At the exact right moments.But before I could open my mouth to ask, a tall man in scrubs rounded the corner and froze when he saw us.“Mr. Vaughn?” he said, blinking behind wire-rimmed glasses. His expression quickly shifted from surprise to concern.Damien’s jaw tensed. “Dr
