RICHARD

Monday morning started with my phone ringing before I had even finished making coffee.

I glanced at the screen and saw Elise’s name.

For some reason, my chest tightened a little.

Elise never called this early unless something important had happened.

I picked up immediately.

“Morning,” I said, still rough around the edges from sleep.

“Good morning, sir,” Elise replied, her voice carrying that calm, professional tone she always seemed to have. “I wanted to let you know personally that Sop

  • Dear Billionaire Ex-husband, I Moved On    Chapter 111

    JASONThe house had never felt this quiet before. Just a few hours ago it had been full of people laughing, giving advice, moving chairs around, and making sure everything was ready for tomorrow. Then Mum had folded her arms, smiled in that stubborn way of hers, and announced that tradition was tradition. Karen was not spending the night here before the wedding. Before I could even argue, Karen had laughed, kissed me on the cheek, grabbed her overnight bag, and left for Janet's house. Now I sat alone in the kitchen, listening to the kettle boil, wondering how one house could suddenly feel so empty.I poured hot water into my mug and watched the tea bag turn the water brown. Tomorrow I would be married. I had imagined this day so many times, yet now that it was finally here, my mind refused to stay still. Every little thing kept running through my head, from the flowers to the guests to whether Sophie would remember to scatter the petals instead of throwing the whole basket at someone.

    KARENI decided days ago that I wasn't going to court. I didn't want to sit there and watch Victor Hale hear his sentence. I didn't want to see his face one last time or hear lawyers argue over how many years his crimes were worth. I had spent too much time letting that man take up space in my head. This morning, I walked into the office like any other workday, carrying coffee in one hand and a folder in the other. I told myself I was done. Whatever happened in that courtroom would happen without me.By late morning, I was halfway through a meeting with Gerald and the department heads when my phone buzzed against the table. I almost ignored it. Then I noticed the sender.Agent Webb.My heart skipped."I'll be right back," I said quietly, pushing my chair back before anyone could stop me.The hallway outside the meeting room was silent. I stood beside the window, looking down at people walking across the parking lot, completely unaware that my whole body had gone stiff. My hands sudden

    KAREN.The next morning, I pulled my dressing gown tighter around me and walked into the kitchen while Sophie happily poured cereal into her bowl. She was humming a little song she had learned at school, completely lost in her own world, and Jason had left very early that morning for work. for I made myself a hot cup of coffee and picked up my phone to check for any recent emails when the news alert flashed across the screen. My heart dropped the second I read it. Victor Hale's sentencing had been scheduled for Thursday. Two days before my wedding.I stared at the screen for so long that my coffee went cold."Mommy?"Sophie's little voice pulled me back."You forgot the milk."I blinked and looked at her smiling face. She was swinging her legs under her chair as if the world was the safest place anyone could ever live. She had no idea why I had suddenly gone quiet. She only cared about whether her cereal had enough milk and whether I remembered to pack her favorite snack."I'm sorry,

    JASON.I knew Marcus had planned something for my bachelor night, but I was not ready for what I found when I walked into a private room above one of the busiest bars in downtown Boston. Music filled the room, people laughed so loudly that the walls seemed to shake, and eleven familiar faces turned toward me at once. The long table was already covered with food and drinks, and Marcus stood in the middle of it all with both arms spread wide like he had just won an award. Then my eyes landed on Gerald, sitting quietly at the bar with a glass of whisky in his hand. He looked a little uncomfortable in the middle of all the noise, but somehow he still looked perfectly calm and dignified."There he is!" Marcus shouted. "The poor fool getting married!"Everyone cheered.I laughed and shook my head. "You're all impossible."Marcus threw an arm around my shoulders. "Tonight isn't about being sensible. Tonight is about making sure you have stories you'll never admit happened.""I already don't

    KAREN.I knew something was wrong the second I heard a car horn outside the house. It wasn't the normal little beep someone used when they arrived. It was long and dramatic, like somebody wanted the whole street to know they were here. I looked through the window and almost burst out laughing. Janet climbed out of her car wearing a sparkling silver jacket that shone under the afternoon sun. Across her chest was a bright pink sash with huge letters that said, ALMOST MRS MITCHELL. She carried bags in both hands and wore the biggest grin I had ever seen.Jason walked into the hallway beside me, looked outside for one second, then slowly turned around."Nope," he said. "I'm leaving before she sees me."I laughed. "You're really abandoning me?"He kissed my forehead."I'm not abandoning you. I'm surviving."Before I could answer, Janet pushed the front door open without waiting for permission."There she is!" she shouted. "The bride!""I'm not even dressed," I said."You don't need to be.

    KARENBy the time I got home from work that evening, I was ready to take off my shoes, change into comfortable clothes, and pretend the rest of the world didn't exist for a few hours.The day itself had been productive, but productive days still had a way of leaving me tired. Between meetings, reports, and the endless stream of decisions that came with running A.A. Biotech, my brain felt pleasantly exhausted.The moment I stepped through the front door, however, I knew peace wasn't going to happen immediately.Sophie came running down the hallway at full speed."Mommy!"I barely had time to put down my bag before she launched herself into my arms.I laughed and hugged her tightly."Hello, sweetheart.""You took forever.""I was gone for one workday.""Exactly."I smiled."I missed you too."She nodded seriously."Welcome back."Before I could respond, my phone began ringing from inside my handbag.I reached in for it.Richard.The timing made me smile.We had spoken earlier that day a

    KARENI truly could not remember the last time we had a morning like this, and standing at the kitchen doorway, I almost did not know what to do with myself.For a few seconds, I simply stood there and watched them quietly like I was afraid that moving in too fast would somehow ruin the moment.Jas

    JASONEven after I arrived at the hospital that morning, I still felt annoyed.I hated admitting it, especially to myself, but Karen had gotten under my skin. She had ignored me the night before, walked away without a proper explanation, and left me standing there like I meant nothing. The memory o

    The PlotLENA.I stood by the upstairs railing, my fingers resting lightly on the polished wood as I watched Richard step out of the bedroom. He was already dressed for work, sharp in a dark suit, tie straight, shoes shining as if he had somewhere important to be and not a wife standing ten feet aw

    Karen's POV"I know about Lena."Richard's hand paused mid-reach for his coffee cup. The morning sun streamed through the dining room windows, catching the steam rising from his untouched breakfast. Around us, the staff moved quietly, setting out fresh fruit and refilling water glasses as if this w
