Cassandra’s POV

I laid out the suit one last time on the desk. Then I inspected it with a scrupulous eye. I wanted to ensure that every single detail was perfect, right down to the last stitch.

It was a gift for Stanley Smith, Jordyn’s grandfather. I had been working on it for months. I hoped it would show him just how much I respected him, and how much I’d enjoyed our time together.

I carefully placed it in a garment bag, realizing that it was probably the last gift I would ever give the old man.

Once Stanley heard that Jordyn and I were getting divorced, he’d want nothing to do with me. At least, that’s what I assumed. So this birthday tonight was going to be bittersweet. I still had no idea how I was going to tell Mr. Smith that we were divorcing. But I had to face the music some time. And tonight seemed as good a time as any.

Just then, there was a light knock on my office door.

“Come in,” I said, and Stella entered.

“Cass, we have a bit of a problem,” Stella confessed, holding ou

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 360: Out on The Table

    Cassandra’s POV Dillon’s statement caused Laura to stop talking. Dillon and Jordyn exchanged a glance that I didn’t quite understand. “I didn’t think so,” Cameron said, clearly relieved. “I mean, that’s ridiculous. Dillon and Cass are engaged.” “Yes,” Jordyn said, exhaling a deep breath. “Of course it’s ridiculous. Like I said, Laura’s in love with Dillon. She’s just trying to cause shit.” “I’m not in love with Dillon,” Laura said, shifting her position on the couch. “I wasn’t even in love with him when we were married. No offense, Dillon. But you’re really not my type.” I felt relieved too. I felt stupid for believing Laura, even for a minute. Jordyn was right. Laura was in love with Dillon and she was trying to stir the pot. She’d redirected the conversation and tried to make it all about Jordyn. But I saw right through that. So, I steered the conversation right back to my accusations. “You’ve been delibera

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 359: Accusations

    Cassandra’s POV All eyes landed on Jordyn. He was staring right at Laura. Laura had a strange smirk on her face. The tension was so thick, you could cut it with a butter knife. “What are you talking about?” Dillon asked. “None of this is making any sense.” Dillon turned to me. “Are you trying to say that you think Laura leaked pictures of your fabric to another company? That’s insane. She cares about your company. Why would she want to ruin it?” “Like I said,” Jordyn repeated calmly, “I know why Laura’s doing this.” That made Dillon fall silent. I glanced at Jordyn, a perplexed look on my face. “Go on then, Jordyn,” Laura said, waving her hand in the air dramatically. “Enlighten us.” “Laura’s in love with Dillon,” Jordyn said. “She wants him back. She told me so herself the night we broke up.” “What?” Stella gasped. I didn’t gasp though. I think that, deep down, I already knew it. There was just s

    Cassandra’s POVLaura had leaked photos of MY fabric to our competitor.I stood, frozen to the spot as it all came washing over me. It was like a flurry of puzzle pieces snapping into place. The day the power went out, I’d been locked in the bathroom. Because LAURA had been holding the door cl

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 357: Stolen Fabric

    Cassandra’s POV “How did this happen?” I stared at the picture of the dress. It was from Stillwater’s website, a major player in the fashion industry. They had a bit of a bad rep for doing some shady stuff though, like not treating their model’s well and copying other people’s designs. The dress was part of their new line, and it had just launched that morning.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 356: One of the Boys

    Jordyn’s POV “You gonna miss this place?” I asked Dillon as we made our way outside. The house felt strange without all their belongings everywhere. They were moving into my grandfather’s estate tomorrow, so when Dillon suggested we all have one last hurrah at his place, I’d happily accepted the invite. “Yeah, man. I really am,” Dillon said with a heavy sigh. He cracked a beer and passed it to me. “But the estate is nice. And Cassandra’s happy.”

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 355: Not Ready

    Dillon’s POV I was doing my best to have a good time, since it was the last good time I’d have in my house. But my smiles were forced. All of our things were packed up and ready to go, but I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to my house. I was happy that Laura would be renting the place, since I knew she’d take good care of it and it gave me a reason to keep it instead of selling it.
