Emelia's POV

"I don't want to hear anything from you, Victor. No negotiations, no questions—nothing. Just sign the papers, and let's be done with this." I told him sternly.

It was honestly so exhausting to constantly be in this back and forth with him. There was nothing I wanted to hear from him.

"When are you finally going to get the hint?" Alexis sneered. "Just do as she says for once—"

I held up my hand and shook my head at Alexis. As much as I appreciated her standing up for me, it needed to come from me just how serious I was about this divorce.

Alexis gave me a worried look but

  • After the Divorce: Mr. Billionaire Begs for My Forgiveness   Chapter 174 — No Going Back

    Emelia's POVA tightness coiled itself inside of my chest to the point that it was almost making it hard to breathe. I didn't feel like this because his sorrow was making me feel bad.No.This was just sheer discomfort.If anything, I only pitied him because he'd held onto this for so long. I thought two years would've been more than enough time to get over us; especially, given the distance between us. I wanted him to move on in the same way I did; to find happiness elsewhere since he clearly hadn't found it in our marriage.But to hear him beg and plead for another chance… To hear the anguish and regret in his voice…It was saddening.Too bad it wasn't my problem to fix."I have to go…" I finally broke the silence after what felt like forever.

He knew there was nothing else he could say to keep me in this roo

  • After the Divorce: Mr. Billionaire Begs for My Forgiveness   Chapter 173 — Too Late For Us

I was told that his vitals were stable, and that the wound didn't appear too deep or serious, but he still needed to be seen by the doctors anyway.As for Lily, they never found her.

  • After the Divorce: Mr. Billionaire Begs for My Forgiveness   Chapter 172 — Blood Spilled

    Emelia's POVThe feeling of being put on the spot was nerve-wracking. Every muscle in my body tensed up, and my heart stopped beating for only a split moment. All the yelling and chaos was reduced to nothing but a distant hum since there were only two things in my mind that played on repeat.One: "Lily… I want a divorce."Two: "Emelia… Does this make us even now?"I couldn't find the words to respond as I stood there with my mouth agape. Some imaginary spotlight shone down on me and it was making me hot. But that was probably just the feeling of everyone's eyes on me while they waited for some kind of response.What the hell was I supposed to say?And what did he mean by making us even?There was nothing to keep score of!This wasn't a game—this was simply life moving forward after facing the consequences of one's actions.If he thought that this was supposed to magically fix things between us, then he sure as hell thought wrong!"I can't believe it…" Lily's soft voice rose from the si

I stated coldly. "Everything you've broken, and all the slander you've attempted against my employees and company—I'm pursuing legal action for it all."Lily thrashed against the security guards who held her arms. "If anyone's paying, it's YOU!" She shouted. "I am Victor Russo's WIFE! Do you think you can get away with mistreating the wife of the most powerful and influential CEO in all of Greenport? No one treats ME like this! I WILL RUIN YOU!"Extra security had come in at this point as they formed a barricade between us and the rest of the crowd. Their mur
