Serena casually offered a lie, her tone steady and convincing. “My husband is a programmer.” With a gentle smile, she added, “Marriage requires effort from both sides. I can’t let him bear all the responsibilities alone.” Gracefully, she pushed the coffee toward Alexander. “Even though his income is modest, he takes excellent care of our family.”

Her description painted a picture of an ideal partner—one who, ironically, was nothing like Alexander.

Curious to gain more insight, Serena asked, “And you, Mr. Vanderbilt? The lady earlier mentioned you’re married. What’s your wife like?”

The question caught Alexander off guard. He furrowed his brows slightly, answering bluntly, “I don’t know.”

It was an honest admission. He had sent the divorce papers to the Morales family long ago, but there had been no response. His so-called wife seemed content to cling to the Vanderbilt name without any real connection to him.

Serena was momentarily stunned by his frankness. Before she could respond, th

    Steam still clung to Alexander’s skin as he stepped out of the bathroom, the faint scent of cedarwood soap lingering in the cool air. The room was dimly lit, the bedside lamp casting a soft amber glow across the sheets where Serena lay sound asleep. Half her face was buried in the blanket, her breathing slow and even, her hair spilling over the pillow like dark silk.For a long moment, he just watched her — that rare, unguarded peace on her face. Then he slipped quietly into bed and pulled her into his arms, her warmth fitting perfectly against him. Just as he began to drift toward sleep, his phone buzzed on the nightstand.Suppressing a sigh, Alexander reached for it and answered in a low voice. “What’s up?”“Mr. Vanderbilt,” the man on the other end said, his tone cautious, “we checked every man named Matheo connected to Ms. Morales. Her routine’s been straightforward — mostly between the county and New York City. None of the Marios or Matheos in those areas have any link to her.”A

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * FREEBIES * 2nd * Chapter 403

    Dear Gentle Readers , Apologies for the duplicated paragraph... please enjoy this chapter free of charge*********The clatter of dishes echoed softly through the kitchen as Serena scraped the last bit of food into the trash. The faint hum of the refrigerator filled the quiet apartment. After a long evening, the air still smelled faintly of roasted garlic and red wine.She rinsed her hands, squirted detergent into her palm, and began to scrub a plate. The warm water and the steady rhythm of cleaning calmed her thoughts—until she suddenly felt strong arms slide around her waist.Alexander.His touch was firm, possessive, the heat of his body seeping through her thin blouse. She stiffened in surprise; he had barely spoken a word all through dinner—just a few short, gruff replies. Now, without warning, he was pressing against her, his breath grazing her neck.Before she could turn, his lips were already on hers.“Wait—” Serena managed, half-laughing, half-protesting. “I’ve got soap on m

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 402 : Mr. Vanderbilt, let me feed you?

    The day had stretched into eternity for Serena. She hadn’t really stopped working since the night before—barely catching two hours of restless sleep before dragging herself back to the office at dawn. By five in the morning, the sky was still painted in pale gray when she unlocked the doors of E.A. Studios, coffee in hand, ready to dive back into the chaos.Though the company was running smoother now, it was still in its infancy. Taking over a huge portion of Ruiz Star Entertainment’s operations had doubled everyone’s workload. The hallways buzzed with life at all hours—phones ringing, printers humming, assistants darting between offices clutching folders.And at the center of it all was Serena—sharp, steady, and exhausted.She’d spent the entire day bouncing between meetings, reviewing budgets, editing marketing pitches, and reading through endless contracts. Every small decision—every casting approval, every sponsorship deal—passed through her hands.By evening, her vision blurred f

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 401 : True love looks good on you, Mr. Vanderbilt.

    Deep beneath the earth, over a hundred miles from New York City, a secret laboratory pulsed with the faint hum of servers and fluorescent lights. The air smelled of metal and ozone, cold enough to make breath visible in thin, ghostly wisps.Marken’s alter ego sat hunched before a bank of glowing monitors, his reflection fractured across a dozen flickering screens. Lines of code streamed past like a waterfall of encrypted language—Marken’s brilliance, now out of his reach.Frustration twisted across his face as he slammed a hand against the steel desk, the echo ricocheting through the empty chamber.“Damn it, Marken!” he snarled. “You have to help me!”He wasn’t Marken. Not really. He didn’t have Marken’s precision, his genius, his maddening calm. Marken had been a prodigy—collaborating with the best scientific minds before he was old enough to drive. And now this imposter, this fragment of him, was left fumbling through the pieces of a mind not entirely his own.The alter ego clenched

    The neon glow of Broadway Bar painted everything in shades of gold and violet, the low thrum of jazz spilling from hidden speakers as laughter rippled through the haze of whiskey and cigar smoke. When Alexander Vanderbilt stepped inside, the energy shifted—heads turned instinctively. He had that commanding presence that didn’t need to shout to be noticed.At the corner booth, Hugo was already two drinks in, lounging with his sleeves rolled up and his grin sharp. He lifted his glass lazily when Alexander approached.“So,” Hugo drawled, eyes gleaming with mischief, “did you ask Serena why she spent two nights at that hotel? Don’t tell me she was catching up with her first love?”Alexander shot him a look colder than the ice melting in his glass. He brushed past and muttered flatly, “Stop talking crap about her.”The bite in his tone silenced Hugo for half a second. He watched Alexander sit, then let out a low whistle. Before everyone knew that Ava and Serena were the same person, Alexan

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 399 : Are you mad?

    Lucca froze mid-step when he saw them—Alexander and Serena—walking in hand in hand. The sight hit him like a slap. His stomach twisted with a mix of jealousy and bitterness he didn’t want to acknowledge. For a split second, he thought about turning around and leaving altogether.His expression darkened instantly, the corners of his mouth tightening as his gaze locked on Alexander.Alexander, however, looked perfectly composed. He moved with effortless grace as he guided Serena to her seat. After sitting down, he handed her the menu, his tone calm and natural, as though the tension in the air didn’t exist.“Serena, what would you like to eat?”She shook her head lightly. “You order. I’m fine with whatever.”Without hesitation, Alexander waved the waiter over and ordered a couple’s set meal.When the menu returned to the table, Alexander casually turned his head toward Lucca, his voice slow and pointed. “I just ordered a couple’s set. Everything comes in pairs, so there’s nothing left f
