Amelia’s POV

The black SUV came out of nowhere.

One moment, I was driving through the intersection with Justin beside me. The next, a dark vehicle swerved across the road, heading straight toward us.

“Mommy!”

Justin’s scream pierced the air.

I slammed my foot against the brake and gripped the steering wheel as our car jerked to a sudden stop. The seat belt pulled tightly across my chest, and the sound of tires screeching filled the air.

For one terrible second, I thought the SUV would hit us. T

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 20:The message You shouldn't ignore

    Amelia pov The reception continued as if nothing had happened.That was the thing about money. It taught people how quickly to forget an embarrassment. Ten minutes after Roselle was escorted out, the guests were already laughing again, asking Emily if they could schedule private viewings with me.I let them.I stood near the champagne tower, accepting compliments and answering questions about Aurelia House. My smile never wavered, but my phone felt unusually heavy inside my purse.Two messages remained on my screen.You seem to be enjoying your new position. Don't get too comfortable.Some people don't appreciate being reminded of the past.I had read them several times, hoping something would reveal the sender's identity.Nothing did.It wasn't Roselle. She would have screamed her anger to my face rather than hide behind an anonymous number.Whoever had sent them was careful. They knew enough about me to make the threat personal, but they hadn't said anything that could identify the

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 19:The price of underestimating Her

    Amelia pov The applause slowly faded, but the shock in the room remained.I stood on the stage, looking across the gathering.Roselle hadn't moved. Her eyes were fixed on me, and her lips were slightly parted. Beside her, Serena looked equally stunned.I could almost see her struggling to understand what she had just heard.I adjusted the microphone.“Thank you for joining us tonight. Aurelia House has grown because of the people who believed in its vision. As we expand into new markets, we remain committed to originality, creativity, and excellence.”My gaze moved across the audience.“We look forward to building meaningful partnerships with people who share those values. Thank you for being here. Please enjoy the reception.”I stepped away from the microphone.Emily approached as I descended from the stage.“Everything is going smoothly,” she whispered.“Good.”I was about to move towards the guests when I heard my name.“Amelia!”I turned.Roselle was walking towards me, with Sere

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 18:The Woman behind Aurelia House

    Roselle's POV"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the founder and CEO of Aurelia House, Miss Amelia Stone!"For a moment, I thought I had heard wrong.Amelia Stone?My smile slowly disappeared.The guests began applauding as the woman in the black dress stepped forward. She handed her glass to a passing waiter and walked towards the stage with the same calm expression she had worn throughout our encounter.No hesitation. No nervousness.She looked completely at home.My fingers tightened around my clutch.No.It couldn't be her.I turned towards Mother, expecting her to say something, but Serena was staring at the stage with her mouth slightly open."That's..." she began.I couldn't finish the thought.Amelia reached the stage and accepted the microphone from the event coordinator.The applause grew louder."Good evening, everyone," she began. "Thank you for joining us tonight. Aurelia House has grown because of the people who believed in its vision, and I'm grateful to everyone who

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 17: The woman they looked down on

    Amelia's POVI had no intention of making an entrance.The Aurelia House reception was being held in one of New York's most prestigious hotels. Business executives, investors, designers, and influential guests had gathered to celebrate the company's recent success.As founder and CEO, I could have arrived with a full entourage.That wasn't what I wanted.Tonight, I wanted to observe.I stood before the mirror, adjusting the sleeve of my simple black dress. The only jewelry I wore was a delicate silver necklace.Emily stood near the bedroom door, holding a tablet."Are you sure you want to attend like this? Without security, without an introduction?""I'm attending a reception, Emily. Not going to war.""Roselle's name is on the guest list. Her mother is coming with her."My fingers paused briefly against my necklace."I expected that.""If they cause trouble?""If they do, it won't be my problem."For years, people like Roselle had mistaken my silence for weakness.I picked up my clut

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 16 The Boy in the crowd

    Sebastian's POV“Aurelia House has confirmed its reception for next Thursday, Mr. Hayes. They've also expressed interest in a possible partnership with Hayes Group.”My assistant placed a tablet on my desk.“Leave the details with me.”She nodded and turned to leave, but I stopped her.“Who will represent them?”“Their senior team. Their profiles are attached to the guest list.”After she left, I opened the file. Aurelia House had attracted considerable attention since the jewelry showcase, and I wanted to know more about the people behind its rapid expansion.I scrolled through the list, checking familiar names until my attention drifted to something else.A little boy.A toy car.A moment at the showcase that should have meant nothing.I remembered the car lying near the driveway and the small hand reaching for it after I picked it up. The boy had looked at me for a second before taking it, his expression strangely serious. Then he'd hurried back to the woman waiting nearby.I couldn

  • Divorced by Him Desired by the Billionaire   Chapter 15:A warning without a name

    Amelia’s POVI read the anonymous message again.Nice family. Be careful.The words were simple, but they left a cold feeling in my stomach. Whoever had sent them knew about Justin. Worse, they had chosen to remind me of him after someone photographed us during the accident.I looked at the picture inside the cream envelope. Justin stood beside me, his small hand wrapped around mine. The angle was too clear for the photograph to have been taken by accident. Whoever captured it had been close enough to watch us without drawing attention.Someone had been watching my son.Six hours had passed since I arrived at Aurelia House, but Emily still hadn't found a clear lead. I picked up my phone and called her."Emily, have you found anything from the cameras?""I'm still checking," she replied. "I've contacted the building management near the accident scene. They're checking whether any security cameras captured the SUV or the person who took the photograph. I've also asked about the courier w
