Title: DIVORCED: My EX-Husband Regret.

Blurb:

After getting divorced and arrested by her husband~Simon Langston, who is known as a wealthy Billionaire tycoon in all of California.

Simon Langston believes that Morgana had tried to kill his ex, Marilyn, prompting him to put Morgana behind bars for attempted murder but Morgana is unexpectedly saved by Simon's business rival, Xavier Hills.

He offers her a shocking proposal: A contract marriage.

In exchange for providing for her and the child she carries, Morgana must supply Xavier with every information that could potentially bring Simon's company to its knees.

Five years later, Simon wants both Morgana and their child back. But can his heartfelt gestures surprisingly move her? Will Morgana fall for him again and end her five-years marriage with Xavier Hills?

CHAPTER ONE:

Morgana's POV:

I stepped out of the room in a blue sundress, my blonde hair tied up in a messy bun. As I approached the stairs, one thought consumed me: Simon Langs

    Morgana's POV:“You are under arrest for attempting to murder Miss. Marilyn Pearce.” Agent Cooper began. ‘Attempted murder? Under arrest?’ My mind suddenly began to race. “Simon, are you aware of this?” I asked turning to face him, there was absolutely no way he would allow these men take me in. This was obviously one of Marilyn's schemes. “All your questions will be answered in court, Mrs. Langston.” Agent Cooper said coldly. “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one, an attorney will be provided for you.” He said, as he moved in to cuff me.“She tried to push me, I moved away and she fell, that's all!” I protested, crying bitterly.“I suggest you cooperate, Mrs Morgana, or you might lose any chance of getting an attorney.” Agent Carter cautioned.And just like that, I was handcuffed and dragged to the police car while my husband stood there staring at me

    Morgana's POV:The doors were suddenly pushed open and I shut my eyes instinctively. I could hear approaching footsteps, but I continued to feign sleep. “She is still asleep.” I heard a male voice say.“What could be wrong with her?” A familiar female voice asked. “She's pregnant.” The man replied, my eyes flung open when I heard his words.‘How? When?’It finally dawned on me, the night Marilyn's divorce was announced in the news and she had contacted Simon for emotional support. He came back home extremely happy and drunk, and that night we had sex for the very first time. The next morning when he woke up he hated me more, he claimed that I took advantage of his drunken state to have my way with him.How did that one night together result in pregnancy?‘Simon needs to know about this, he will come for me the moment he finds out that I am pregnant with his child.’ I thought.“She is awake.” I heard a male voice announce. Tilting my head to the side, I saw a middle aged man, dresse

    Morgana's POV:I picked up the envelope and started to open it. "What is this? Is it some kind of petition or something?" I asked, still struggling with the seal.“Divorce papers!” He replied and my hands froze in the air.“Y-you are kidding right?”“Do I look like I came all the way here to joke?” He asked, sounding all serious and impatient. Tears filled my eyes as I looked at the man I called my husband. “Why are you doing this to me, Simon? What have I ever done to you to deserve this?”“Honestly, I can’t believe you’re asking me this right now,” He began. “Marilyn is stuck in a wheelchair for God knows how long, and she has a severe brain injury that I can only pray she recovers from. And you're asking me what you've done to deserve this when you actually deserve more!”“So this is all because of Marilyn huh?” I asked, staring deeply at him. “I am telling you I didn't push her off the fucking stairs. She fell while trying to push me down.”“Why should I believe you?” He sneered

    Morgana's POV:FIVE YEARS LATER………“Noah!” I called out, tying my hair back with a band.Where could he be? Suddenly, I bumped into someone. Looking up, I saw it was the cook in her white apron and cap. Sighing deeply, I asked, “Where is he? Please tell me you found him.”“I couldn’t find him, Ma'am,” She replied, her head hung low. “This house is huge; he could be anywhere. I had the maids search everywhere for him. We’ll find him soon, I promise.”“I hope so, Lola. Xavier is on his way back, and he hates it when his rest is disturbed.”“Don’t worry, ma'am. We’ll definitely find him before Sir returns, trust me…”“I found him!” Someone called out, and we hurried toward the voice.We entered the library and saw a maid standing by the door.“Where is he?” I asked.“Behind the third shelf,” She replied curtly. “You both can leave now,” I instructed. “And please shut the door behind you.”I moved behind the third shelf to find my sweet pie crouched down, his head hanging low.“What's

    Chapter 6Morgana’s POV:I ran a hand over my black gown, smoothing out invisible wrinkles as I examined my reflection. The V-neck hugged my curves, while the long slit along my right leg gave just enough allure without being too revealing.“Everything is perfect.” I said, to my reflection.Tonight, I would no longer be the woman hiding in the shadows, secretly aiding Xavier from behind the scenes. Tonight, I would step forward and take my place beside him, no matter how much he tried to keep me sheltered.As if summoned by my thoughts, a familiar deep voice rang out. “You’re really going through with this?” Xavier leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed over his chest. His blue eyes swept over me, a mixture of admiration and concern filled his eyes. I turned toward him, raising a brow. “Would you rather I stay hidden forever?”“You know that’s not what I mean,” He sighed, stepping forward. “Morgana, there’s no need for you to put yourself through this. Simon and Marilyn—”“Are e

    Chapter 7Morgana’s POV:The ride home was quiet. Too quiet.Xavier’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, while I leaned back against the leather seat, watching the city lights through the tinted window. His silence didn’t sit well with me, so I turned to him. “Are you going to keep brooding the whole way home?” I finally said, breaking the unbearable quiet.His fingers flexed, and without taking his eyes off the road, he exhaled. “I’m not brooding.”I raised a brow. “You’re gripping the wheel like you want to break it. Seems like brooding to me.”He said nothing.I chuckled. “Let me guess. You’re upset because of Simon?”His jaw ticked. Bingo.Xavier’s voice was tight when he finally spoke. “I told you to stay away from him.”I tilted my head. “Technically, I did. He came to me.”Xavier shot me a glare before looking back at the road. “You know what I mean.”I sighed dramatically. “Relax, Xavier. I don’t care about Simon. He means nothing to me.”His fingers tightened around

    Chapter 8Morgana’s POV:He wasn’t moving.I stayed crouched by Simon’s side, fingers hovering just above his neck, unsure if I wanted to know what I might—or might not—find.“Xavier…” My voice came out lower than I meant it to, nearly drowned by the thud of my heartbeat in my ears. “What if you—”“I didn’t hit him that hard,” Xavier said, but his voice lacked conviction. It wasn't convincing neither was he sure that he didn't hit him dead.We both stared at the man lying motionless on the cold balcony floor, the evening breeze rustling his shirt slightly.I reached out and touched Simon’s neck—then sighed with relief. “He’s breathing.”Xavier exhaled. “Good. Then I won’t have to spend the night in a jail cell.”I looked up at him. “But you might still have to deal with a lawsuit. You punched a powerful man in public, in front of witnesses.”He ran a hand through his hair, pacing a few steps back. “He had it coming.”“And what if he wakes up and spins this into something bigger?” I st

    Chapter 9Morgana's POV:After Noah got better, I made the decision to finally start working officially at the company. It was overdue—long overdue.I was supposed to leave with Xavier this morning, but he had already gone before I woke up. Again.That made it three days in a row.Three days of waking up to cold sheets, three nights of falling asleep alone, and not even the sound of the room door closing behind him. He came and left like a shadow, just like I had asked for… unintentionally.‘You don’t have to be worried because he’s not your son.’ Those words had spilled out of me in a moment of anger, and now they sat in my chest like a stone. He didn't say anything, neither has be brought it up. But his absence screamed louder than any argument could.The truth was, Xavier and I never had a real relationship. Our marriage was a contract—two broken people agreeing to coexist, nothing more.At least, that’s how it started.But after a year… something changed. It became purely sexual

    Morgana's POV “What do you think you're trying to do, Xavier?” I asked immediately as I entered his home office. Throwing my bag on his couch. He was obviously busy, but I did not care. He raised his head up from what he was doing, his glasses perched on his nose like the fine man he is. I shook my head to remove those thoughts. He looked so nonchalant, you'd think that he was only my boss and not my husband. “To what do I owe your royal presence?” He said sarcastically in a bored tone. I wanted to slap that bored expression off his face. “Don't pretend that you don't know why I'm here right now, Xavier,” I said, fuming and boiling inside of me. “As much as you think I know the reason you're here, I have no idea, babe.” He said, leaning back on his chair. His calling me almost dissuaded me a bit, but I got myself back in control. “Don't call me that. And stop acting so nonchalant.” I said, and I regretted it almost immediately. “Are you bothered?

    Xavier's POV “This isn't what I asked you for. Are you dumb by any chance? What the fuck is your problem? All of you? Do I pay you to give me substandard work?” I slammed my hands on the conference table, and the people sitting jumped. They should. Because, I was obviously in a shitty mood. I don't want to deal with people who don't know what they are doing with what is happening right now. “I need a revamp of that. And the best one at that. If I don't get it by your next presentation, every single person on your team is fired.” I said to the team leader, whose eyes widened with fear. I could see the way they were all shaking. If I had an ounce of regret, I might have gone down on them a bit. Or maybe even apologized on a good day. But there was nothing good about the day. So they might as well deal with my bad moods. “Okay, Mr…Mr Hills. We will get you something better.” He stammered out, and I waved them off. “Get me the best, or you're all toast. Get the fuck out.” Th

    Morgana's POV The following days were nothing to write home about, too. There was nothing going on in the house except for the fact that Noah was going to school daily, which he was happy about, and I was going to work. Xavier was going to work too. He didn't speak to me. Well, except for the curt greetings every morning, he does not speak a word to me. It felt as though I was not in his surroundings at all. He was flat out ignoring me. And it hurts. It hurts so bad that I regret what I did every single day. There was no amount of me trying to start up a conversation that helped. After a while, I stopped. When I discovered that he wasn't going to talk to me except for his one word answers. And it felt to me as if I was dying inside. We still slept in the same room. And I feel like the reason for that was because he did not want Noah to notice a thing; he was already a tad bit worried to suspect another rift between us. But Xavier always came into the room late, though. When he

    Morgana POV Helium was by only membership bar. I don't have one but I'm very sure that my husband has one. I was not planning on pulling that card. So I waited for a while in the car and called Ella to say I was outside. I knew she would have told the bouncers I was coming. She told me to walk up to them and I did. “I'm here to see Ella Beaumont,” I said, and they immediately let me in after greeting me. I nodded and stepped inside. The place screamed wealth and class. No wonder it was a membership-only bar. There were people around and everyone seemed to mind their business. They were dressed in tux suits and serious dresses. The place almost looked like a party would ensue soon. “Morgana.” I heard my name being called. And I saw Ella, sitting at the bar and having a conversation with another lady. I really hoped to God that we were not having a conversation with that lady present. From here, she looked like she stomped over people with her shoe. I smiled and waved a little at

    Morgana's POV I was about to walk past him when he grabbed my arm and pulled me back to face him. “Whatever is going through your head right now is wrong, Morgana.” He sounded hurt. But I won't allow myself to fall for his lies again. It's happened over and over again. I think I'm the stupid one here who can't even understand something as simple as the fact that I cannot have happiness in my life. “You kissed her in that picture, Xavier. And I don't even know what else you guys did. Have you been seeing her behind my back?” I asked him all the hurt I'm feeling seeping into my voice. I suddenly felt tired. I felt as if I could not deal with whatever is happening right now anymore. “See, I just want to leave. Mm? I want to go. And I'm taking my son with me.” I said with a tone of finality. “You're not going anywhere, damn it. You listen to me right now.” He said in an angry tone. I don't know why, but my blood started boiling too. He had no right at all to be angry right now. No

    Xavier's POVMy day was going perfectly fine until I heard that my wife didn't eat in the office cafeteria or order take out like she usually does. This was the first time she would step out of the office to eat during her lunch break. Which was already surprising on its own. The next surprise that came on to me was when I went back to her office and she was nowhere to be seen. I don't know how it happened. But there and then, there was a bad feeling slickering through my veins. I don't know why that happened, but I just felt like something bad happened. It was rare for my gut feelings not to be right. I hoped to God that it was just a fleeting feeling. Sasha said she was going to stay outside for a while to work instead of coming back to the office. That should have alleviated the whole paranoia I was feeling but it didn't. It just made me level headed enough to continue with the meetings I had. Even if I had lost it on them a couple of times. And they know now not to get in my wa

    Morgana's POV It was as if the carpet of my whole world was pulled from under me. I can't wrap my head around what I'm seeing right now. I could make out what was happening right now and even a blind man would have seen this. I mean, it was blurry, but I know my husband's physique anywhere, anytime. I should have looked away from the photo, but I couldn't. It was as if I wanted to torture myself, so I continued. What made me think that I could have ever been happy? I snickered internally. There was this nagging feeling deep within me that this would also come to an end. I just didn't expect the end to come in this fast to a screeching halt, in front of me. I was always used to being the second choice. I've had to deal with this my whole life. I think I've had it as a second skin of myself. But he came and made me feel like there was no one else but me, only to be just like them. My brother used to tell me then that no one would ever want me. That I was just a replacement and I ha

    Morgana's POV Getting back home is quite euphoric. But, I wish I was still back in Italy. I moved every time I spent there. Except for the part where I had to confess my sins to Xavier. Thinking back to it, I cringed at the thoughts. I can't seem to wrap my head around that part of our whole journey. And what was shocking to me was how he took it. I was expecting him to be mad about the fact that I hid something like that away from him, he wasn't. He was at first, I guess. But he was understanding about how he got me. And then, there was the part where Simon suddenly was not texting me anymore. It came as a little bit of a kind of shock that it was after I had spoken to him about it that he suddenly stopped texting. But then, I was cool with the fact that he wasn't blowing up my phone anymore. It was a Monday morning and I was planning on leaving for work in the next couple of minutes. Noah already went to school. And yes, we enrolled him in a school that had maximum security tha
