Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire

Cassandra’s POVOutside the hotel room, I clasped my hand over my mouth. The sounds were unmistakable.My husband was in the hotel room…Having sex with another woman!I burned with rage. I’d seen the dirty text message on my husband’s phone an hour ago.‘‘Hey baby. Hope this gets you nice and hard. Can’t wait to see you tonight. Meet me at the Sterling Hotel. 8:00pm. Xoxo’ I’d thought the text message was just spam. But I’d gone to the Sterling Hotel anyway. I NEVER thought, in a million years, my husband would actually go.I was wrong.I pressed my ear up against the door. During a pause, I heard the woman speaking. “What if your wife finds out about us, Jordyn?”I felt like I recognized the woman’s voice, but I couldn’t recall where from.“She won’t say anything. Besides, our marriage is already dead. The only thing she has going for her is that she’s obedient and sensible. If she finds out, she’ll keep her mouth shut if she knows what’s good for her. She needs me. She has nothin

Cassandra’s POVA few days later, I walked into the office of Hot House Flower. Everyone greeted me warmly and respectfully, since I was the co-owner. I smiled and greeted everyone back.We’d recently increased our staff and hired some new interns, so the office was bustling. Our company specialized in fashion and women's apparel, and we were still trying to find our niche. I’d graduated college with a degree in fashion, and Stella had graduated with a degree in business management. We’d come up with the idea to start our own company as soon as we graduated. Since I had a degree in fashion, it made sense to start a fashion company.Our company had started out small, in Stella’s garage. We’d worked really hard to build a brand for ourselves, but it hadn’t been easy. Our company was booming though now, and sometimes I still couldn’t believe how far we’d come.Hot House Flower was really gaining ground in the fashion industry.My plan was to temporarily hand over the company to my best fr

Cassandra’s POVI felt my cheeks flush with anger. I was both furious and ashamed. Furious at Jordyn for causing a scene like this in front of so many people, and ashamed that people were whispering about us behind their hands.Jordyn was making me look like a fool, with Ellie on his arm, a smug smile plastered on her face. How could he do this to me? Did he not care about me at all?I was so overwhelmed with emotion that I was shaking. I wanted to rush out of the crowd, but I was frozen to the spot. My feet wouldn’t move.Just then, I heard a voice reverberate through the restaurant. Someone was speaking into the microphone on the restaurant’s stage. All eyes turned to the stage.I turned, only to see Dillon, a charming smile on his face.“I’d like to announce that all bills will be covered by me tonight,” Dillon said. “Food, drinks, desserts – the tab’s on me. So drink up! Eat up. I sincerely hope you all have a wonderful evening.”The crowd erupted into applause, shocked by Dillon’s

Cassandra’s POVI felt everyone’s eyes fall on me. None of them recognized me because I never accompanied Jordyn to any events. As such, I’d been completely out of the public eye during our marriage. I’d never really been identified as his wife.Ellie’s eyes narrowed and looked at me, a malicious expression on her face.“Oh, I…um…beg your pardon,” the woman said, withdrawing her hand from Ellie.I saw the looks of confusion pass through them. If I was his wife, then why had he entered with Ellie on his arm?“I wouldn’t really call myself his wife,” I smiled politely. “Not anymore. We’re in the midst of a divorce.” I shot Jordyn a look that said ‘how dare you do that to me?’Everyone nodded, relieved that the mistaken identity had been a minor mishap. Jordyn, however, was angry.“Why are you here, Cassandra?” he asked, his eyes fixed on me.I balked.Was he really going to do this? Was he really going to make a scene in front of all these people? The group of people uncomfortably aver

Cassandra’s POVI whipped my head toward the voice at the door.Dillon?My jaw fell open.Dillon was the last person I expected to see here!Luckily, Jordyn was surprised, too. Surprised enough to let go of my hand. This gave me the chance to step away from him.Dillon stepped in front of me, blocking Jordyn.Jordyn was pissed off. He glared at Dillon.“Who the hell do you think you are?” Jordyn seethed.“She doesn’t want to be in here with you,” Dillon snapped back.“She’s my WIFE! Mind your own fucking business,” Jordyn said, his voice rising.I saw them both clench their fists.Shit. They were going to fight. That was the last thing I wanted.“Let’s just go,” I said, touching Dillon lightly on the shoulder. “Come on. It’s not worth it.”Dillon didn’t respond, but I could see that he was breathing heavy. He was clearly very agitated. They both were.My hand on Dillon’s shoulder must have really pushed Jordyn over the edge. His face contorted with rage. “It’s HIM, isn’t it
