Cassandra’s POV

“What do you think?” I asked Dillon as we entered the bar. It was the night of Stella’s engagement party and we’d shown up early just to make sure everything was perfect.

“This is impressive,” Dillon said. He was wearing a pin-striped suit and a fedora. He looked like he just stepped right out of the pages of the Great Gatsby. He had an unlit cigar in his hand. He was so handsome, it took everything in me not to kiss him.

But we didn’t have time for that. The guests would be arriving soon.

“I think she’ll like it?” I said, but it came out more like a question.

“She’ll love it,” Dillon replied.

My silver dress was pretty short and scandalous, which was the point. But I felt a little self-conscious in it, since it didn’t leave a lot to the imagination. I’d paired it with high heels and a blonde wig with pin curls. I was wearing big, false eyelashes and bright red lipstick. When Dillon had first seen me, h

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 233: Join Us For Dinner?

    Cassandra’s POV I wasn’t surprised to see Stella out at the club, but I was surprised to see her with Laura. I’d asked Stella earlier that day what she was getting up to tonight, and she’d said she might grab a drink later. She’d left out the fact that she was grabbing a drink with Laura. I don’t know why it bothered me, but it really did. Stella looked up then and saw me. She waved vigorously. Now that she’d seen us, we had to go and say hello. I glanced at Dillon. He didn’t seem the least bit phased at seeing Stella and Laura together. “What a coincidence,” Dillon said as we approached their small table. They both stood up and we all air kissed. “Here, pull up a chair,” Stella said, grabbing a couple chairs from a nearby table and dragging them over. “Oh thanks. But we can’t stay,” I started to explain. But Dillon was already sitting down. Next to Laura, I noticed. So I sat down too, next to Stella.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 232: Burnt Chicken

    Cassandra’s POV “To us!” Dillon said, popping the champagne cork.“To us!” I cheered. It was our first official night with me living at Dillon’s, and we were celebrating the event with champagne and roasted chicken.Moving into Dillon’s house was surprisingly easy. I actually didn’t have to bring much, since I liked most of Dillon’s furnishings. Besides, I’d been living at my parents’ estate, so I didn’t really own any of the furniture there anyway.The majority of my stuff was my clothes and shoes, along with some photo albums and some books. Dillon was great though. He told me I could get rid of anything I wanted and replace it with anything I chose. He wanted his house to feel as much my home as his.I wasn’t in a hurry though. For now, I was perfectly comfortable.Except for his god awful bedroom furniture. It was clunky and masculine. That had to go asap. “I can’t believe it,” I said, as Dillon poured the champagne. I really couldn’t. It had all happened so fast. Sometimes I

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 231: A New Day

    Jordyn’s POV Cassandra was an absolute godsend. I honestly don’t know what would have happened if she hadn’t shown up at my hotel that night. I’d been completely shocked to see her there, and I’d sobbed like a baby in her arms. But she was so steady, so calm, so supportive. I confided in her and slowly, day by day, I started to feel better. Not entirely better, mind you. Dark thoughts still came to me, out of nowhere, but being with Cassandra made me feel like I could handle them. I knew I needed some sort of professional help. I’d had a nervous breakdown, and I needed someone to talk to you. Hell, I probably needed some sort of medication. But by the time Cassandra told me she had to go back to the city, I felt ready to face my problems. Part of me still wanted to run away, to some far off place, and start over. And maybe I still would. But Cassandra wanted me to go back with her. She said it would help ease her mind, and everything she’d

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 230: Day By Day

    Cassandra’s POV Day by day, Jordyn got better. The color came back into his cheeks. His old, sarcastic self emerged. And we began going out more and exploring Atlantic City. I kept in constant contact with Dillon, but I was honest about the fact that I couldn’t come back quite yet. Jordyn still needed me, and I wasn’t about to leave until I was confident he was going to be okay. I worked from the hotel most mornings, but Stella was a rock star and delegated a lot of my work to others, including Lisa. She also told me that Laura was amazing and that they were hanging out occasionally. I wasn’t sure how I felt about that, but I decided to keep an open mind. The only thing I really worked on were Blaire’s sketches. Another loan payment was coming out in a couple of weeks, and I had to finish at least one dress for her when I got back to cover the loan payment. But Blaire adored me and my designs, so I wasn’t too worried about it.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 229: Love’s Not Lost

    Cassandra’s POV “What do you mean you’re not coming back?” I asked him. That was the whole reason I was there. To help him and to bring him back. “You’re going to stay here? In Atlantic City? That’s absurd.” My voice was a little tight and firm. It sounded like I was mocking him, and I didn’t mean to do that. But his comment had really caught me off guard. “Maybe,” he said, looking out over the ocean. The salty breeze was warm. “Maybe not. I don’t know. But I don’t want to go back there, Cass. I have nothing there.” “That’s not true,” I told him. “It’s your home. Your father is there. I’m there.” “Yeah, and so is my mother and that asshole Brock. I fucked everything up. The city had nothing but bad memories for me now. Why would I go back?” “Because…it’s…you…” I stammered. I tried to come up with a good reason for Jordyn to come back to the city, but honestly, I couldn’t find one. I paused. Jordyn

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 228: Confessions on the Patio

    Cassandra’s POV “What?” I asked, glancing over at the massive stack of boxes. “Yeah,” he shrugged, sitting down on the bed. “I bought all that stuff for you. Some of its just crap. Souvenir type things. But there’s some nice jewelry there too. Rubies. Some diamond necklaces.” I walked over the stack of boxes. Sure enough, there were some velvet jewelry boxes tucked away, along with some oversized stuffed elephants and lions. “I don’t understand,” I told him. There was a lot of shit there. Like, thousands of dollars worth of stuff. “You bought all this? For me?” I asked. “I wasn’t…thinking clearly,” he said, furrowing his brows. “It was like I was in a haze. Like I was disconnected from myself. It was so strange. I can’t even explain it.” “I think you had a nervous breakdown,” I said gently. I felt like he was finally going to open up, so I motioned for us both to go and sit outside on the little private deck. The more
