Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife Chapter 80: I want to thank your wife for taking care of you while I wasn’t here
The hospital room felt suffocating, the stale scent of antiseptic lingering in the air. Serena remained still, watching as Alfonso leaned back against his pillows, his expression clouded with disapproval. His earlier words still echoed in her mind."Since you're married, you should act like a married person."As if her marriage to Alexander meant anything.Suppressing the bitterness rising in her chest, she forced a neutral tone. “Dad, take care of yourself. I have things to do today, so I’ll be leaving.”Alfonso didn’t look at her, waving his hand dismissively. “Go. You only make me angry by coming here.”Serena clenched her jaw but said nothing, simply turning on her heel and exiting the ward. The moment the door clicked shut behind her, she let out a slow breath, steadying herself.She had barely reached the elevators when she ran into Valentina.Her half-sister was dressed elegantly in soft pastels, her delicate features tinged with an unnatural pallor. She had obviously come stra

Valentina didn’t know how to conceal her admiration for him, her wide eyes filled with excitement, cheeks flushed as if she had just stepped in from the cold. Alexander immediately noticed and found it distasteful. That kind of overt admiration, the kind that bordered on idolization, always annoyed him. His expression darkened.She had originally been on her way out to pick up food for Alfonso, eager to escape the hospital room before another one of his long-winded speeches about Serena. But fate seemed to have other plans, delivering Alexander directly into her path. Instead of leaving, she found herself rooted to the spot, unable to resist the rare opportunity to be close to him.Alexander, however, had no patience for her hesitation. His brows furrowed. "Aren’t you going out?"His tone was cool, detached—exactly the way he would speak to a stranger.Valentina hesitated, then cautiously took a step closer, her voice soft. "Mr. Vanderbilt, may I invite y

Ava hadn’t planned to stay long at the bar after resolving the loan issue with Rachel. She still had to figure out a construction team for Alexander’s house. However, just as she was about to leave, a familiar hand lightly tapped her shoulder."Ava, what a coincidence."She turned to find Alexei standing there, his signature smirk in place. Dressed in an expensive yet deliberately casual suit, he exuded his usual playboy charm. His dark eyes gleamed with mischief under the dim lighting of the private lounge, where the chatter of the wealthy elite filled the air."I heard you had a falling out with Mr. Thompson?" he asked, swirling a glass of whiskey between his fingers.Ava gave him a measured look. "Mr. Volkov, do you really have the audacity to ask especially when you are the cause of it?"Alexei chuckled, unfazed. The atmosphere in the room was electric—soft jazz playing in the background, the clinking of expensive glassware, and the occasional bursts of laughter from nearby VIP boo

The question lingered in the air, heavy with anticipation.Women exchanged knowing glances, their curiosity evident.Ava exhaled slowly, relieved that Hugo hadn’t directly asked who the woman was. If he had, all eyes would have been on her immediately, and she wasn’t sure how she would’ve handled that.Hugo might be playful, but he knew when to hold back.Alexander, on the other hand, barely looked fazed. His gaze flicked toward Ava, his dark eyes unreadable.Ava straightened slightly under his scrutiny, a prickle of heat creeping up her spine. Was it the alcohol, or was it him? Their arms were still pressed together, and she could swear his skin felt warmer.A sudden memory flashed in Alexander’s mind—her soft gasps, the way her nails had dug into his back that night, her flushed skin beneath his. His jaw clenched, annoyed at himself for thinking about it now.Irritated, he unbuttoned the top of his shirt, letting a bit of cool air hit his skin.Then, his deep voice cut through the th

Ava had planned to repay the eight million first, and once the bank funds arrived, she intended to sell her house immediately. She refused to take advantage of Alexander—even the interest would be included.But now, Alexander had refused, and on top of that, he seemed angry. She wasn’t sure what he was thinking.Just as he was about to say something, a familiar voice interrupted."Alexander, aren’t you leaving yet?"Hugo's voice rang out from across the bar, slightly slurred but still clear. He had been drinking, but not to the point of losing his sharp instincts. As soon as he spotted Ava standing close to Alexander, his lips curled into a knowing smirk."What secret conversation are you two having?"Alexander’s gaze darkened, and instead of answering, he turned and walked away, leaving Ava standing in the dimly lit bar. Hugo nodded politely at her before following his friend.Ava remained where she was for a few moments, feeling the weight of Alexander’s cold mood lingering in the ai

Ava had planned to leave right away, but after sending Rachel that message, she knew her friend would come storming in. So she waited by the elevator.It didn’t take long. Rachel arrived like a force of nature, her high heels clicking sharply against the marble floor, her stride radiating fury."Rachel?" Ava called, but Rachel was too far gone in her anger to respond.She made a beeline for the suite at the end of the corridor and pounded on the door with the force of a woman scorned.Bang! Bang! Bang!Inside, the birthday celebration was in full swing. Two men and two women were laughing as they clinked glasses, singing a boisterous rendition of Happy Birthday.The birthday girl, draped over Tom’s shoulders, smirked. "Tom, did you invite me a surprise guest?" she teased, her voice saccharine.Everyone chuckled. They all knew Tom—good-looking, broke, and willing to do anything for money.He had been hesitant t

Jonathan wasted no time executing Alexander’s order. The hotel, owned by the Vanderbilt family, operated with precise efficiency. Within five minutes, security had retrieved the complete surveillance footage of Ava leaving in a car.Alexander strode out of the lobby, his expression cold and unreadable. Jonathan was already waiting at the curb with the engine running. The red dot on the GPS map indicated Ava's location—she hadn't been taken far.The kidnappers had been careless, confident that no one would come for her so quickly. After all, Mr. Thompson had assured them she was a nobody, someone with no powerful connections. One million dollars in exchange for her? It seemed like an easy deal.Inside the speeding car, Ava drifted in and out of consciousness. Her body ached, her head throbbed, and the overwhelming stench of gasoline churned her stomach. She felt hands on her—rough, unwelcome, invasive.The man beside her groped at her, but the vehicle’s motion prevented him from doing m

As the car window lowered, Ava acted instinctively. Without a second thought, she turned and buried herself against Alexander’s chest, her arms wrapping tightly around his waist.From the outside, it looked like a woman seeking comfort in the arms of her lover.Valentina, who had been watching expectantly, felt her breath hitch. Her fingers curled into fists, her nails digging into her palms. The image before her sent a sharp wave of jealousy crashing through her, but she forced a soft, composed smile onto her face, though it barely hid the storm brewing in her heart.“Mr. Vanderbilt, are you unwell?” she asked, her voice laced with gentle concern.In truth, she had been hoping to catch his attention—to show him that she was different from other women, that she was considerate and understanding. Yet here he was, holding another woman in his arms.Alexander cast her a brief, indifferent glance. He had never held much regard for Valentina. His sharp gaze flickered with irritation before

Meanwhile, Alexander had just touched down on foreign soil. The sleek wheels of the private jet had barely cooled before he was ushered into a waiting car—Victoria trailing a few steps behind.The sun was beginning to dip below the skyline, casting a golden hue over the glass buildings around them. But the warmth of the city didn’t seem to reach Victoria’s mood.The auction had been a disappointment.Those who had flown in from all over the world had come chasing one thing—a rumored masterpiece by the elusive Master Remington. The buzz had been relentless, the anticipation feverish. Collectors, curators, and connoisseurs all gathered under one roof, poised to outbid one another for a chance at owning a piece of immortality.But the pièce de résistance had never arrived.Instead, the organizers had presented a different set of paintings—fine works, certainly, but none carrying the master’s signature. Whispers swirled through the crowd: the Remington piece had already been given away. P
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 168 : Relax
Ava had just stepped out of the shower, the steam still curling around her from the bathroom. Wrapped in soft pajamas and with her damp hair towel-dried and tousled, she was about to unwind for the evening when a message lit up her phone.It was from the property management office:“Dear resident, we’ve prepared a small gift for you. Please collect it in the underground garage.”It wasn’t unusual in this kind of upscale community. Services like this—holiday gifts, complimentary deliveries—were standard perks. She assumed it was another seasonal gesture and didn’t think much of it.She threw on a light cardigan over her pajamas and slipped into house slippers. There was no need to dress up just to walk through her own building. The community was secure, and the garage private—no one would bat an eye.The garage, however, was packed.Dimly lit rows of polished luxury vehicles stretched in every direction. She stepped carefully between them, the click of her slippers echoing softly. As s

Alexander sat at his sleek glass desk, a shaft of afternoon light slanting across the surface. His fingers moved with precision as he reviewed the final pages of a thick document. With a quiet finality, he pushed the folder forward.Jonathan, ever efficient, stepped forward to take it, bowing his head slightly in acknowledgment. As he turned to leave, the door opened and another figure appeared.Victoria.She stopped short, clearly startled to find Alexander at the office today—especially considering he had been at the hotel earlier. And it was Saturday.Recovering quickly, she walked in with her usual grace, her heels tapping softly against the polished floor."Alexander," she began, her tone casual but calculated, "news just came in from Spain. Master Remington’s painting is officially going up for auction. Everyone’s flying in for it this week—even Colton’s confirmed his attendance. When are you planning to leave?"She studied his face as she spoke, carefully watching for a flicker
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 166 : That rascal took you for himself before I could introduce you to someone far more suitable!
Ava shot upright in bed, her heart thudding as her eyes scanned the breaking news headlines on her phone.Ryan Kuzmin Detained in International Crime Probe—PW Group Offices Raided.Details unfolded line by line like a script in a legal thriller. Ryan had been arrested on suspicion of overseas criminal activity. That morning, the authorities had swept through PW Group’s towering headquarters, raiding offices and seizing documents. The scandal was larger than anyone had anticipated.Further investigations revealed damning evidence: years of tax evasion, vast embezzlement schemes, and a tightly knit circle of executives siphoning company funds for personal gain.The outcome was swift—and brutal.PW Group had been slammed with devastating penalties. Their bank accounts frozen. Assets forcibly liquidated. Half their senior executives were already behind bars.And Ryan? He now faced the terrifying possibility of a twenty-year prison sentence.All of it—undeniably—was Alexander’s doing.With
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 165 : He was enjoying you
Ava was completely drained. Every inch of her body ached as if she’d been taken apart and reassembled—twice.Alexander Vanderbilt, she thought bitterly, was not someone an ordinary woman could keep up with.She was still lying in bed, limbs heavy and muscles sore, when her phone lit up. The name Rachel flashed on the screen.Ava groaned internally but forced herself upright and answered the call."Ava! I brought something up for you—I’m downstairs and on my way up!" Rachel's cheerful voice burst through the speaker.Snapping out of her haze, Ava quickly sprang to her feet and checked her reflection in the bedroom mirror. She smoothed her dress, adjusted her hair, and ensured nothing about her appearance betrayed her disheveled morning. With a small breath of relief, she stepped back just as the doorbell rang.She hurried over and pulled open the door.Rachel stood there glowing in high-waisted designer jeans and a black camisole with delicate lace sleeves hugging her arms. Her outfit
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 164 : Eight more times...
Alexander rose from his chair and made his way toward the bedroom.The room was a blend of understated elegance and quiet opulence—decorated with muted colors, gilded moldings, and a custom-made European-style bed that looked as though it belonged in a palace. A long row of mahogany cabinets lined one wall, their polished surfaces gleaming under the soft light.An air of subtle luxury hung over everything, understated yet unmistakable.Alexander opened one of the cabinet doors. The scent of expensive wood polish and crisp linen filled the space. Neatly arranged inside were rows of impeccably pressed suits—his armor for the world outside.But tucked beneath them, nearly hidden among the shadows, sat a beautiful woman.Ava.She was curled up against the side of the closet, her knees drawn tightly to her chest, wrapped in nothing but his oversized white shirt. Her bare feet were tucked under her, her shoes hastily kicked somewhere under the bed in her rush to hide.For a long moment, nei
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 163 : I have business to handle
Alexander leaned in, brushing his lips against Ava’s earlobe—a whisper of a kiss, soft and lingering like a lover’s secret murmur.Ava stiffened slightly, unaccustomed to this kind of closeness.In truth, she had never been this intimately connected with anyone before. The sensation of his warm breath against her sensitive skin felt almost foreign, startling.Despite her naturally cool and reserved demeanor, her body betrayed her easily. A soft pink hue blossomed across her cheeks, spreading down her neck, making her look even more delicate under the sunlight.Without daring to meet his gaze, Ava slipped away, heading toward the bathroom, still dressed in his oversized white shirt.Alexander watched her go, his dark eyes trailing her graceful movements. He never would have imagined that his stiff, formal shirt could look so sinfully beautiful draped over a woman’s body.She was the very picture of effortless allure—elegant, yet undeniably tempting.Inside the bathroom, Ava quickly spo
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 162 : Five years… and still so innocent?
Ava rushed out of the hospital, her heels clicking against the pavement as she hurried to her car. Once inside, she started the engine with shaking fingers and glanced at her phone. Her heart dropped. The roads were packed—an evening traffic jam clogging the city like a pulse grinding to a halt.Her fingers clenched the steering wheel, frustration bubbling up. She honked the horn more times than she could count, each one sharper than the last. A twenty-minute drive had now turned into a maddening forty-minute crawl.Alexander had given her exactly one hour.With every passing minute, her heart beat faster, the pressure building like a kettle about to boil over.And then—bang.Her car lurched forward. She’d been rear-ended. The sudden jolt slammed her head into the steering wheel, sending a flash of pain through her skull. Her eyes stung with tears, but she blinked them away, biting down on her panic. The driver behind her got out, waving his arms and pulling out his phone to call the
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 161 : I’ll give you one hour
Alexander couldn't focus, his thoughts scattered and restless. As his phone rang with a call from a business partner, he seized the moment and stood up.“Grandpa, the business partner is calling. I need to go over the details of this morning’s meeting,” he said, already moving away.Grandpa let out a long, weary sigh. To him, it looked like Alexander was just eager to escape. “If you put that much effort into Serena,” he grumbled, “you two would have had a house full of kids by now. Go on, but no matter how busy work gets, don’t forget the wife waiting for you at home.”Alexander didn’t answer. He slipped into his car and glanced at the dashboard clock—8:00 PM. Ignoring the call still ringing on his screen, he turned the key and headed straight to the hotel.By the time he arrived, it was 8:30.His phone buzzed again. It was Jonathan, this time with more urgent news—Ryan had been arrested, and sensitive information about PW Group had been leaked. By morning, the media would be ablaze w
