Cassandra’s POV

There are no words to describe Bora Bora. That was the first thing I thought as our plane landed. The water was so clear you could see right through it. And the colors in the ocean were so spectacular, it didn’t even seem real. There were palm trees everywhere, and a huge, towering mountain in the distance. The moment we stepped off the plane, we were hit with warm, salt-scented air.

It was impossible to be stressed here. The island had a welcoming, relaxed vibe that washed over you immediately. It truly was one of the most beautiful places on the planet, and I had to physically pinch myself because I couldn’t believe we were there.

We climbed into a luxury sedan that drove us along a coastal road, past sun-kissed beaches. Dillon and I were sitting beside each other, and I couldn’t help but glance at his profile. He had clearly put a lot of effort into this trip and I was touched by it. This wasn’t just some run of the mill vacation. This was a once in a lifetime

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 185: Be a Man

    Cassandra’s POV Dillon stood beside me as Jordyn stumbled towards us. He had to steady himself on the back of a chair. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Jordyn was spiraling, right before our eyes. “Really Cassandra?” Jordyn said, “You brought your boyfriend here?” “Jordyn,” Dillon said, stepping forward. “I’m really sorry to hear about Stanley. I know how hard this must be.” “You don’t know jack shit,” Jordyn snapped at Dillon. I stared at Jordyn in utter disbelief. He looked ten times worse than the last time I’d seen him, and he’d looked awful then. His shirt was wrinkled and untucked. His pants had stains on them of some sort. His face looked pale and sunken. There were dark circles under his eyes. He’d lost weight, too. He was skinnier than I’d ever seen him. “I wish we were meeting under better circumstances,” Dillon continued, unphased by Jordyn’s rudeness. “I wish we weren’t meeting at all,” Jordy

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 184: You're here

    Cassandra’s POV “Where is he?” I asked, rushing into the lobby of Stanley’s house. Vivenne appeared. She looked awful, but I didn’t blame her. Her father was…dying. “Cassandra, dear,” she said, coming towards me. She embraced me stiffly. “I’m so glad you came. He’s been asking for you.” It was the nicest Vivenne had ever been to me in my entire life. Tragedy had a strange way of making people act odd. She let go of me and sniffled. Then she glanced at Dillon. “Who’s this?” she asked. “This is Dillon. He’s my boyfriend,” I told her. Dillon stepped forward and extended his hand. “I’m so sorry to hear about your father,” Dillon said. She didn’t take his hand. Instead, she motioned for me to follow her through the lobby and up the stairs. “Yes, well. It’s come as quite a shock to all of us.” We ascended the stairs, and my mind flashed back to Stanley’s party all those months ago when Ellie had pushed me

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 183: Heading Home

    Cassandra’s POV It was dawn as Dillon and I boarded the plane. As soon as Dillon heard, he started making arrangements to get us home. It hadn’t been easy though, since Bora Bora only had select flights in and out. He’d tried to charter a private plane, but the couldn’t find one on such short notice. Cameron and Stella had stayed by my side while Dillon made phone call after phone call. He was the epitome of strength and calm. Eventually, he secured us both an early morning flight. “It’s economy seating,” he said apologetically. “That’s fine,” I told him. It didn’t matter to me HOW we got home. All that mattered was that we did. Once we had the flight, I felt ten times better. The wheels were in motion. I’d be home tomorrow. I could see Stanley. I texted Jordyn to let him know I’d be arriving late afternoon. Then, because there was nothing else we could do, I suggested we all go and eat. “Are you sure?” Stella asked.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 182: A Brain Tumor

    Cassandra’s POVStanley? A tumor? Doesn’t have long.I struggled to process what I was hearing.“I don’t understand,” I said, dazed.“I’m sorry to tell you like this. I really am. But…the tumor is inoperable. It’s aggressive. The doctor doesn’t know how much longer he has. I know you care for him. So this is a courtesy call. If you want to see him, Cassandra, you need to come now.”I was silent for a moment. My vision went blurry and I felt like I was going to pass out.“I…I will. Of course,” I heard myself say, but it didn’t feel like me saying it. “Thank you Jordyn,” I replied. It felt like an odd to thing to say, thanking him for a phone call to tell me that Stanley was dying. But honestly, I was in shock. I didn’t even know what I was saying.“Okay then.”Click. Jordyn hung up.I stayed, frozen on the spot, the phone still pressed up against my ear.What had just happened? Stanley was….dying?It didn’t make sense. I’d seen Stanley not too long ago. He seemed…healthy. As healthy as

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 181: An Unexpected Phone Call

    Cassandra’s POV Stella came out of the shower, freshly scrubbed, a towel wrapped around her body at the chest. She was scrunching her hair with her hands. “You’ll be my Maid of Honor,” she said. “Of course!” I replied. I had already showered and was applying my make-up. It actually felt good to get all dressed up for the night, since we’d been spending the majority of our trip in bathing suits and beach cover ups. I was wearing a blue satin dress with a cute skirt that had a little flounce. Stella was going to wear her black cocktail dress with a wide open back. “Good,” she said, ducking into the bedroom to get changed. “I was thinking in the shower about the wedding. I’d like a Spring wedding, with lots of fresh flowers. Sort of a romantic feel. You know? I have a few venues in mind. We can check them out when we get back.” I couldn’t help but smile. Stella had been engaged for all of what – two hours? And she was already planning

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 180: Celebration

    Cassandra’s POV“I can’t stop staring at it,” Stella sighed, her hand held out in front of her, gazing at her beautiful ring. We were sipping champagne, and sailing slowly back to the resort. We’d decided not to have the picnic dinner. Instead, we were going to get all gussied up and go to the 5-star restaurant at the resort. We hadn’t gone there yet. Dillon had been saving it for our final dinner on our last night. But given the circumstances, we decided to go tonight instead as a celebratory dinner for Cameron and Stella.I was beyond happy for both her and my brother. Honestly, I hadn’t seen that coming, and I was a little jealous. It had been a beautiful place to propose. Perfect, really, even if the proposal itself had been a little botched.Dillon sidled up beside me.“That was…something,” he said.I nodded. It was hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that my best friend was getting married. And to my brother none-the-less. There was a time in my life when I thought Camer

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 179: The Proposal

    Dillon’s POV I wanted to snap at Cameron to sit the hell down before he fell flat on his face. The wind was picking up and the waves were getting bigger. He clearly was having a hard time standing, so why was he? In any case, he seemed pretty serious about whatever it was he had to say. Knowing Cameron, I figured he was going to make some toast about ‘good times’, or ‘friends’ or something like that. Although I had no idea why he felt the need to do it then, right before dinner. I didn’t snap at him again. I realized that I was anxious myself. The ring was tucked away in my satchel, under my hat near the Captain. I was trying to time it just right. I wanted to propose when the sun was low in the sky, since those were the best colors for the back drop. But to do that, we had to get on with dinner and Cameron was holding it up. I glanced at Cassandra. Her brows were furrowed and she was looking at Cam with a concerned expression. Her hair was a

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 178: A Picnic Dinner

    Cassandra’s POV We tore through the water, the wind blowing across my face. I loved sailing. The wind, the sun, the sea. I was hooked. “Maybe we should take up sailing,” I said to Dillon. “Maybe we should,” he smiled at me. “We could sail around the world. Just like you wanted to when you were a child?” I asked. At that moment, it felt like anything was possible. I imagined Dillon and myself sailing across the Mediterranean. We could visit the European coastline, mooring in little, out of the way, towns. Or we could sail to Asia. People did that, right? Sailed all the way to Asia. Or Australia? I’d always wanted to see Australia. I was a sucker for kangaroos. Dillon already knew how to sail. We could buy a boat. Reno it. Make it ours. We could see the world. Go on adventures in every port. Spend out evenings sitting on the boat under the stars. This was the thing about Dillon. He opened up the world to me in a

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 177: Sailing

    Cassandra’s POV “Holy shit, Dillon. This is…there are no words!” I exclaimed as the salty wind blew through my hair. We were on a luxury sail boat, and the captain had just put up the sails. There was nothing but blue ocean in front of us. Cameron, Stella, Dillon and I were all sitting on the front of the yacht, as the power of the wind propelled us through the water. Right beside us, dolphins jumped. Actual real life dolphins. Dillon was sitting behind me, his legs splayed out. I leaned back into his chest and lifted my head. It was exhilarating. “Pretty cool, right? Growing up, my father had a sailboat. We used to sail off the coast of Martha’s vineyard every summer. When I was young, I used to dream about just taking off and sailing around the world.’ “That sounds magical,” I sighed. “This is pretty cool, man,” Cameron said. “Like, next level cool.” “That’s the island we’re going to,” Dillon poin
