Alice’s POV

The blinding white lights above me hummed faintly. My lashes fluttered as I stirred awake, my chest heaving in a sharp gasp.

Where… am I?

My palm flew to my stomach, instinctive, protective. My heart thumped wildly as I scanned the unfamiliar room. White walls. The sterile smell of disinfectant. A faint beeping sound somewhere in the distance.

A hospital.

I froze, panic seizing me. The last thing I remembered—refusing Adrian’s offer to give me a ride, choosing instead to wa

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   EPILOGUE

    The city was noisy as always, horns blaring, voices overlapping, life moving fast around me. I was standing by the window, my phone pressed to my ear, answering a call from my assistant while watching the traffic below. the street light illuminating the dark road.“Yes, I already approved the schedule for next week,” I said calmly.Then suddenly, I felt it.A strange warmth.Something ran down my leg.For a second, my brain refused to process it. I froze, my hand tightening around the phone.“Madam, are you still there?” Mary Jane asked.My breath caught.“I think…” I swallowed hard. “I think my water just broke.”“What?” Mary Jane’s voice rose in alarm.“I’m sure of it,” I said, my heart pounding. “But it’s too early. I’m due next week.”Before I could say anything else, the door opened and Vincent walked in.“What’s wrong?” he asked, immediately noticing my expression.I turned to him. “Vincent, I’m sure I’m going into labor.”For a split second, he just stared at me. Then everythin

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   BOOK THREE: Feelings Confessed

    I sat in my study, staring at the shelves I had arranged a hundred times already, yet nothing seemed to settle my mind. My thoughts kept circling back to that night in Country D. That strange, vivid dream. At first, I had been convinced it was real. The warmth, the closeness, the emotions, everything had felt far too intense to be a dream. But when I woke up the next morning, the bed was empty. No one beside me. No trace of anything having happened.Just like a dream.And yet, the feelings lingered.They clung to me in a way dreams never did.When I saw Lily that morning, she greeted me cheerfully, smiling the way she always did. There was no awkwardness, no guilt, no hint that anything had happened between us. That was when I told myself, firmly, that nothing had happened. That it was all in my head. Just a dream.So nothing really happened between us.Two weeks passed after Lily left for the hostel. Two long, unsettling weeks. She barely picked up our calls. Most times, she only rep

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   BOOK THREE: That Night

    The idea of bringing albums of K-pop music was actually good.When I walked into the living room and saw them piled up, stacked one after the other, I froze for a second. Then I laughed. I laughed out loud, the sound surprising even me. I had not laughed like that in a long time. I bent forward, holding my stomach, tears gathering at the corners of my eyes.“You bought all these?” I asked.He stood there, pretending it was nothing. “I was not sure which one you liked.”That made it worse. I laughed even harder.At least he got to see me smile again.Two days later, everyone was on break. We decided to travel to Country D for a picnic. I had heard about it before, how the place was filled with palaces and old structures, a perfect tourist spot.When we arrived, Amara immediately put on her shades. They were far too big for her face. She flipped her hands dramatically, walking like she owned the world.“I am the boss lady,” she declared.I bowed slightly. “Yes, madam.”She burst into la

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   BOOK THREE: Her Favorite

    Back in the VIP room, the client sat across from me, talking endlessly about numbers, investments, projections, and timelines. I nodded at the right moments, responded when necessary, but my mind was somewhere else. It was with Lily. I had seen her. The way she pretended not to know me surprised me a little. She did not even hesitate. Not a glance. Not a flicker of recognition on her face. At first, I thought maybe she was embarrassed. Maybe she did not want her friends to know we were family. And I understood that. I respected her choice. Deeply. She was young. In college. Trying to build her own world. I had no right to interfere with that. If she wanted distance in public, I would give it to her. But something else bothered me. She looked pale. That image stayed with me. The way she sat there quietly. The way her smile was forced, almost nonexistent. It reminded me of this morning. She had been acting oddly. Not like herself at all. Usually, whenever she came down in

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   BOOK THREE: Adrian Spencer

    The minute I left the study room, I ran.I did not stop. I did not look back. I did not want him to call my name or see my face. I rushed straight to my room, closed the door behind me, and collapsed onto the bed.The moment my body hit the mattress, the tears came.They spilled out of my eyes uncontrollably, soaking into the pillow beneath my face. I hugged myself tightly, curling inward as if I could hold my own heart together.I had been living with them for almost three months now.Three months of safety. Of warmth. Of care I had never known before.And somewhere along the way, without realizing it, my heart had betrayed me.I was sure of it now.I had feelings for him.I knew he was far older than me. I knew it was wrong. I knew it was foolish. But the way he spoke to me that night, calm, firm, distant, it crushed something inside me.“You are still a child.”Those words echoed painfully in my mind.I buried my face deeper into the pillow, sobbing quietly so no one would hear me.

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   BOOK THREE: Sir I Like You

    The next morning came too quickly.I barely felt like I had slept when I walked downstairs, rubbing my face and rolling my shoulders to shake off the stiffness in my body. The house felt different that morning. Lighter. Quieter, yet warm in a way it had not been for a long time.I stopped at the bottom of the stairs and raised my voice.“Who wants to go shopping today?”It was something I had always done back then, whenever the boys, Darling and Dillon, were around. A habit that never really left me, even after everything changed.Almost immediately, Amara’s door flew open.“Me, me, me, Daddy, me,” she screamed, running toward me with her arms raised.I laughed softly as I bent down and scooped her up.Lily stepped out moments later, confusion written all over her face. “What was that about?”Amara twisted in my arms to look at her sister. “It is a ritual,” she said proudly. “Every day that comes after the weekend.”“A ritual?” Lily repeated, amused.I set Amara down. “We always go ou
