Ethan ChoiDear Gentle Readers, this author fully understands your impatience... however, wouldn't it be better for him to fall for her first before realizing that she was the wife that he despises? Furthermore, the title stated "ex-wife" hence you must know what it's hinting at... fall in love, divorce his wife, then realize she's his wife and tries to win her back. A lot of stories rush to the realization which this author firmly believes to be less fun... Your understanding (and patience) are much appreciated. After all, in real life, love does often come in slow-burn... slow but steady and more importantly, long lasting! Yours, EC

Dear Gentle Readers, Firstly this author would like to apologize for the timeline-confusion in Chapter 262 (perhaps the worsened flu has gotten its way into his ability of simple copy & paste). It has been fixed at his end but his editor needs to approve it first before it is fixed at readers’ end. That being said, thank you Massiline Makichi for noticing and please enjoy this freebie chapter as a token of apology and gratitude for your continuous support. Yours, E.C. P.S. while this author was checking this chapter again and again before updating, he notices comment about being changed twice for same words or so, please forgive this author and know that it is NOT intentional. This author has never cheated on his readers and always give freebies chapter (against his editor’s wishes and the correct way to publish here) whenever he could ... ***In the other car, Alexander Vanderbilt sat in silence, reclining in the driver’s seat, the window slightly cracked to let in the crisp moun
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 264 : Goodbye, Serena
The morning sun filtered softly through gauzy curtains, casting a pale golden sheen across the ceiling. Serena blinked against the light, momentarily disoriented. The familiar ceiling came into focus, and with a frown, she realized—this was the Manhattan Villa.The echoes of her name—"Serena... Serena..."—still rang faintly in her ears, remnants of a dream, perhaps, or something far too real.With a groan, she pushed the covers aside and sat up. Her clothes had already been laid neatly on the foot of the bed, folded with mechanical precision. Of course, Alexander would orchestrate even the smallest things.She dressed quickly, her movements sharp and restless, then made her way downstairs.In the living room, Alexander sat sprawled on the plush couch, a document open in his hands. Sunlight fell across his sharp features, highlighting the tension in his jaw as he pretended to read.Serena didn’t give him a second glance. Her steps were swift, her expression set. She moved straight towa

Alexander remained composed, casually brushing a hand across his cheek as if the entire situation were nothing more than a passing inconvenience. “If Marken knew I skipped out for someone I liked,” he said coolly, “he’d probably be proud.”Diana stood frozen, caught off guard by the blunt honesty. She parted her lips to speak, but no words came out. The Vanderbilt family wasn’t known for displays of tender emotion. Loyalty, power, legacy—yes. But love? Not so much. Justin and Charlie had made a sport out of extramarital affairs. No one expected Alexander, of all people, to make sacrifices in the name of affection.Especially not for Serena.Alexander gave the tense group of onlookers a curt glance. “I’ll have Jonathan handle the share transfer documents. Contact me once she’s out.”Without waiting for a reply, he pivoted and walked away, his strides steady and unapologetic.“Alexander,” Diana called after him, the words escaping her before she could think them through, “that’s your mo

"Serena, I heard you went to check the surveillance footage," Rita's voice crackled through the phone, casual yet tinged with something deeper.Serena said nothing.Rita continued without pause, "Alexander had it wiped a long time ago. You're not going to find anything. I'm at Vanderbilt Manor right now—want to come over and talk?""Talk about what?" Serena snapped, her voice laced with quiet fury. "With everything going on between us, Rita, there's nothing left to talk about.""Suit yourself," Rita said airily, but her next words landed like a blow. "I just remembered hearing the kidnappers saying something… about your mother. Thought you'd want to know."It was bait—and Serena knew it. But it was bait she couldn’t ignore.She had only just learned from Jared that there was a faint chance Elena—her mother—might still be alive. That one sliver of hope had been haunting her thoughts, and Rita’s calculated mention of it struck home.So Serena went.*Outside the police station, word spr
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 261 : Who wrote the check?
When Serena stepped into Jared’s hospital room for the second time, she nearly collided with a group of sharply dressed men gathered around the bed, one of whom held a check. At the front of the group stood a familiar figure—Alexander Vanderbilt’s lawyer. She remembered him well; he was the one who had coldly handed her the divorce papers, crisp and unsigned, like a formal end to a chapter she hadn’t yet closed.Her gaze sharpened. Why would Alexander’s people be in Jared’s room?The lawyer stepped forward, his tone polite but practiced. “Mr. Garcia, we’ve come to offer compensation. Here is a check for $300,000. We sincerely hope you’ll refrain from pressing charges or involving law enforcement further.”Jared, lying weakly against the hospital pillows, flinched at the sight of the unfamiliar men. His face was pale, eyes wary. As if on instinct, he yanked the blanket higher over himself, shrinking into the mattress like prey before a predator. The money meant nothing to him. He didn’
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 260 : What kind of trouble this time?
Serena was on her way to the office when her car slowed near a gas station. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a hunched figure crawling across the pavement—filthy, ragged, dragging one mangled leg behind him. The sight made her instinctively tap the brakes.Even from inside her car, she could almost smell the pungent odor of sweat, dirt, and decay that clung to him like a second skin. His clothes were tattered and soaked in grime. The leg he dragged behind him was grotesquely swollen, and the foot—what was left of it—looked like it had been crudely severed. Infection had set in, oozing through the open wound.Serena reached for her wallet, flipping through it quickly. She had just two hundred dollars in cash. Not much, but better than nothing. She gestured to the gas station attendant to fill up her tank, then stepped out of the car and walked toward the man.She crouched and placed the folded bills on the ground near him.But just as she began to stand, she heard a raspy whis
