Cassandra’s POV

“Cassandra!” Dillon exclaimed. “Are you okay? Are you hurt?” His eyes anxiously scanned my body.

“No, I’m fine,” I said, looking up at him. I was relieved that the doors were finally open. But he was above me. Which meant the elevator was dangerously between two floors. My heart sank. The doors were open but I still had to get out.

“Just stay there,” Dillon instructed. “The maintenance crew is here with me. They’re going to help you out.”

I was happy to see Dillon, but I suddenly wondered what he was doing there. This was Jordyn’s company’s office building. It seemed awfully coincidental that Dillon just happened to be there at the same time I got trapped in an elevator.

“What are you doing here?” I asked. Dillon flashed me a smile.

“Don’t worry about that right now. I’ll explain later,” he told me in a voice that left no room for arguing. “Let’s get you out of there first, okay?”

I nodded.

“Do you think there’s enough room to pull her out?” Dillon asked whoever was

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 534: You’re Hogging the Nachos

    Cassandra’s POV The waitress set down a pitcher of margaritas. “Keep em coming,” Cameron said, biting into a taco. We were all gathered around a large table in the restaurant. The kids were sucking down soda, the adults were sucking down anything with alcohol. We were all still in a bit of shock from the dramatic morning. But Dillon had saved Tulia. That’s all that mattered. He’d passed out as soon as he surfaced, but the life guard had caught him. Moments later, the boat came up beside them and hauled them all aboard. Miraculously, both Dillon and Tulia were given the okay by the resort doctor. Tulia had been able to hold her breath just long enough before Dillon caught her. And other than some sore muscles, Dillon was perfectly fine too. So we were celebrating, choosing to focus on the positive outcome instead of what could have happened. We couldn’t go there.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 533: Under Water

    Dillon’s POV I didn’t even think. I just ran straight into the water and started swimming. I knew that Tulia had been caught in a rip tide, and that my chances of catching her weren’t good. Just as I knew that she’d taken off her life jacket. I’d seen her do it. Sneakily, without her father knowing. And she knew I saw her do it. But I’d only flashed her a conspiratorial smile and nodded. She was seven, and she wanted to push boundaries. I adored that kid. I loved her like a daughter. I honestly didn’t think that anything would come of it. Tulia was a strong swimmer and her and Jordie were just playing in the waves. What harm could come of that? The moment I heard Cameron call her name, I knew. Before I even saw her, bobbing out in the waves, a feeling of dread washed over me. Tulia had been pulled out by a rip tide. She wasn’t wearing her life jacket. Th

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 532: Rescue

    Cassandra’s POV “They were playing in the waves,” Cameron said, his face frantic. “I don’t know what happened. One minute they were there. And the next…” Jordyn and Dakota had joined us on the beach. “I’m sorry,” Jordie said, sobbing. “It happened so fast.”“It’s a rip tide,” Jordyn said. “This isn’t your fault, Jordie. It must have taken her.” “It’s okay,” Stella said. “She’s wearing her life jacket. She’ll be okay.”“She’s not,” Jordie sobbed.“What do you mean, she’s not.” That’s when we saw it, Tulia’s life jacket tossed on the sand.“She took it off. She said swimming was more fun without it. She didn’t want you to know.”“It’s okay, love,” Dakota said, collecting Jordie into her arms.“Oh my god,” Stella said, her eyes wide, her composure gone. “What do we do?” Stella The lifeguard appeared, a flotation device under his arm. “Don’t worry,” he said. “I’m going to call for a rescue boat. I have my eyes locked on h

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 531: The Accident

    Stella’s POV “Stell, come here,” Cass whispered, motioning for me to follow her. We were all on the beach for a morning swim and play time with the kids. I was on my phone with the hotel concierge, trying to book a last minute private excursion for Dakota’s Bachorlette party. She hadn’t given me much notice, but I was more than capable of pulling a few strings. I was the Maid of Honor after all. This was my job. The kiddos were with Cameron and Dillon in the water. They’d been building sand castles with Jordyn and Dakota, but when they decided to swim instead, Dakota and Jordyn had taken over the castles. So yes, two grown adults were now building a sand castle empire on the beach. And they were pretty serious about it, too.But who was I to judge? “What is it?” I asked, walking away from the group towards Cass. Her eyes were sparkling. I knew that look. This was going to be about the surprise vow renewal. “

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 530: House Manager

    Dillon’s POV The ocean breeze was a little cooler so early in the morning, which I appreciated. I’d been running along the beach for well over half an hour, and I was sweating pretty badly. Everything was in order for my surprise vow renewal, which would take place after Jordyn and Dakota’s afternoon wedding. Stella had come through and packed Cass a beautiful dress. Every time I thought about it, I got a shiver of excitement. I couldn’t wait to profess my love for her all over again. The sun was still low on the horizon when I got back to our room, and I was surprised to see Cass already up. The kids were still sound asleep, worn out from their big day yesterday. “There you are,” Cass said, sidling up to me. She was still in her silk night gown, her hair messy from sleep. She was stunning. I planted a kiss on her cheek and told her I was going to take a quick shower. “I ordered us some room service,” she sa

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 529: Bridal Party

    Cassandra’s POV “Sorry we’re late,” I said sheepishly, sliding into my empty chair. It was pretty obvious that Dillon and I were late because we’d been making love. There was no need to say anything more about it. That is, unless you’re Stella. “Taking full advantage of the kid’s club, I assume?” This caused everyone to chuckle knowingly. “Have you ordered yet?” Dillon asked, changing the subject. “Of course not,” Dakota said. “We were waiting for you.” Jordyn and Dakota looked like entirely different people. The afternoon nap had served them well. Dakota’s long hair cascaded over her shoulders and she had a flower above her right ear. She was donning an elegant sundress, and her cheeks glowed. Stella and Cameron also looked great, with Stella in a short blue cocktail dress, her hair piled high on her head and Cameron in a Hawaiian print shirt. I was wearing a lavender silk tank top and
