VICTORIA’S POV

I watched him in surprise. Jayden wasn’t present during the whole auction time and suddenly appeared at the last announcement.

His soft brown eyes locked into mine as he flashed his handsome smile toward me.

“I said the bid, Miss Williams. Hope I am not late?” His brow raised in amusement, and I was pushed back to my senses.

My eyes fell on the audience, especially the last bidder. Camilla’s face was pale in disbelief, which was a refreshing sight for me.

Soon, I digested the shock, and with a nod, I started sealing the bid.

“The gentleman set the bar high with ten million. Ten million one, Ten million two...”

All the while, my eyes kept fixated on Alessandro and Camilla. The distress on Camilla’s face was fairly visible. She started shaking Alessandro’s arm and saying something.

Maybe urging him to raise the bid. Yet, Alessandro only shook his head.

Afterward, I exclaimed, “Ten million three,” and joyfully rang the last bell. I then announced, “Sold! The ‘Beloved’ now b

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    Author's note...

    Hello dear readers, I know I am always late to update chapters here. I apologise for that. Lately some of you were very upset about me leaving this story unfinished. I never intended to abandon it completely. I was trying to work on it and struggling honestly. However, I will return with it as soon as I am stable enough to continue. And for my other story 'Down the memory lane: marry me again, dear wife' is completed. Please, do give it a try. Also, 'tempted by her forbidden Alpha' and 'disguised bride of the ruthless duke' they are also completed stories, please do give it a try. Thank you...

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 26

    LILY... "He has been stabbed over 15 times. The killer might hate him so much. His neighbour felt something was wrong and went to check. Sigh... The poor woman must be in trauma after the scene." Max said. "Umm... Anything else?" I asked, Sitting in the opposite of his desk. "I mean, who could be the killer? Any hint?" Max shook his head. "Not yet." He looked around before lowering his tone, "And you must not be too curious about this matter. He was involved in the politician murder case and now this happened. It's dangerous, Lily." Closing my notebook, I chuckled. "Are you seeing me after danger the first time?" He sighed, narrowing his eyes, "Better my name is not connected to this case. Inspector Brian was my senior and this is morally a crime for me to share any inside news with you. But..." He let out a helpless huff. "What could I do? You're a friend I couldn't deny." "You're an amazing friend both personally and professionally." I stood up. "I'll leave now." "Hmm, don't

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 25

    LILY... I yawned, stretching my hands and fluttered my eyes open. The narrow ray of light was entering through the little window of my room. I smiled. It's a good and very free morning of my life. I couldn't help the grin broke on my lips... So refreshing to think that I kicked out a huge toxicity of my life! Sooo Good! Fluttering my eyes again, I looked at the small window. But, why does it feel so close this morning? I mean, sleeping on the couch, this window is a bit away from me, isn't it? Or, was I wrong? As if to answer my question, something firm wrapped around my waist, making me confused as well as alert... "Good Morning..." A deep husky tone muttered beside my ear. Fuck! I immediately jumped out of bed only to fall on my butt "AaGh!" I cried out and looked at the intruder only to gasp in agony, "Leo!" His bluish-green gaze was on me, frowning. "What stunt are you playing this morning?" He asked in a groggy voice, turning me dumbfounded. "I am playing!?" I barked at h

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 24

    LEO... I woke up in the late afternoon. Couldn't sleep the entire night thinking about the ridiculous shit I did in the club. I fucking kissed her! Her soft lips felt like cotton candy, and her soft berry scent was delicious... Since the day I met her, I wanted to kiss her and finally, I did, but... Now I want more even though it happened at a crucial moment, I couldn't stop thinking the feeling of her! That woman was insanely climbing all over my thoughts! After that kissing incident, I kept myself shut to not do something more crazy. Though I don't know how long I could maintain this peace. Every time I think of her, my imagination runs wild and the effect is clear under my trousers! Sigh... Sitting on the bed, I looked around. Lily was nowhere to be seen. Wait... Where is she? It's Sunday today and she's still out for work? Such a pathetic life of a reporter! That woman really does not care about her safety, does she? What if she faces sort of the same troubles? I'm not beside

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 23

    LILY... Not even three days passed and on the fourth day, I was standing right in front of the hell. I swore to not appear here after that insult but here I am, again I am here because Mom called me this morning. At the age of Fifteen, I left this mansion. It's been over nine years since she called me. I know I shouldn't after that night but I couldn't deny her because of the promise I made to Theo. If it wasn't for Grandma, I wouldn't bother to show up here ever. Taking a deep breath I stepped inside. Surprisingly, no one stopped me and I went to the hall. Alyssa, Ruby and Dad were Sitting there. The environment was gloomy. Something definitely happened here. "You called me?" I directly asked Ruby. For some reason, my usual fear wasn't working anymore. Probably because Grandma's safety was managed. She looked up at me. Her cold eyes were sending chills at my way. Beside her, Alyssa was leaning on her shoulder with her bloodshot eyes. "How dare you get in here!?" She roared at m

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 22

    LILY... Lord! I messed up! What to do now!? It's not my first time doing such a thing, yet I am frozen here. And before I realised, I was pulled back hastily as Leo covered the crack. "W-we need to leave," I muttered before opening the storeroom door to leave but paused at the sight of those men. Shit! They smelled us here! Immediately closing the door, I backed up. Hope they don't enter here. "What the fuck!? Are you always this clumsy!?" Leo hissed. "Who gave you the access to become a crime reporter!?" I was already annoyed and his taunts were worsening it. However, my annoyance died inside when footsteps neared the store room. Shadows of suspicious footsteps were just outside the door. I backed away, hitting my back at Leo's chest. I could feel his rigid figure. The knob of the door twisted and my heartbeat stopped for a moment. Suddenly, Leo grabbed me by the waist, pushing me on something hard and his lips followed mine next, stiffing me on the place. In the next second th
