RAE

My heart was thumping so hard in my chest as I drove away. There was no doubting if she saw me or not because I knew she did. She saw me

My cover was blown

I wondered what her reaction was going to be.

Tell everyone?

Try to find me?

I just didn’t know, I just wanted to be left alone from their bullshit. I was given a second chance at life that was meant to be my clean slate. I didn’t want to mess that up.

Theo’s cry in the back seat snapped me out of my brooding

  • Her Billionaire Ex-Husband’s Regret    140

    I was at the bar earlier than 8 p.m so I wouldn’t be late and have anyone wait for me. I came with a box of my freshly baked cookies sitting in front of me. I didn’t want to start drinking before the person I was supposed to meet arrived. It was also meant to be a formal meeting and I didn’t think getting drunk would be a good idea, so I ordered water instead, drinking glass after glass while waiting for her to show up.8 p.m. rolled around really quickly, but she still hadn’t arrived.I was so eager to meet her that I kept checking the time every few minutes. It honestly felt like I was about to pitch an idea to someone important. I didn’t know what to expect from who was going to show up. I didn’t know if they would listen and hear me out, brush me off politely or just completely hate the idea. So I sat there waiting, trying not to overthink everything.By 8:30 she still hadn’t shown up.I became tempted to send a text asking if the plan was still coming by or to find out what the

    RAE I spent the whole week thinking about how I could go about the whole hotel or motel, whatever it is called. If I didn’t want to handle it alone I had to convince other people somehow to invest but the returns were either going to be too little or barely anything.I had put Theo to sleep and I was in bed that Friday night just thinking it through and how feasible it was for me to handle. Like Jack mentioned it wasn’t advisable to spend every single penny I had no me to do it especially when I had responsibilities.Like raising a child Ever since I got the commission, it finally registered with me that it was truly mine. It had been sitting still in my account a single dollar hasn’t been taken from it. I didn’t know what the right thing was to use it for.Subconsciously I have been going through real estate pages looking at different homes, the bigger Theo got, the more space he needed and it wouldn’t take long before he grew out of the apartment. I have imagined a house with a bi

    LIANNA “What does that have to do with me?” I asked to see her reaction and she wasn’t expecting me to say that. My mouth shook as she tried to think of an answer“What do you know about her?” I asked “Everything” her tone rose“Okay say it” I waited to hear something new at least“She hates her family, I listened in on their conversation when they came to cause chaos at the gallery and she told them they weren’t her family” she explained and I rolled my eyes as the basic ass information she was spewing“Is that it?” I asked“I know where she lives” she added“So do I” I scoffed“Your hatred for Rae Knight has nothing to do with me, I don’t know what makes you think you can walk up to me to tell me that” I firmly said“I just need a job, I am a perfect assistant” she said“Still none of my business” I rolled my eyes and turned to get into the bathroom “She got her role as director by seducing Rickon!” She shouted after me“What?” I turned again“She seduced him, she doesn’t have an

    LIANNAAfter much back and forth the day of my movie premiere finally came around. I was looking like a million bucks, everything about me in place, covered in diamonds that it sparkled whenever light landed on it.“Over here”“Could you turn to the side”“Look right here”“What are you wearing?!”“You both look perfect!”Comments from the reporters that surrounded the red carpets, their camera lights flashing brightly that it was almost blinding. But I held my smile through it and kept posing.“Let’s have a moment with both of you”With that, I walked over to Axel who was standing at a corner of the red carpet with his hand tucked into his pocket while looking around lazily.“Smile” I said through my teeth as I wrapped my arms around his arm. His face looked like I dragged him down there to be with me.Although that was exactly what happened I didn't want him telling the whole world that.The night was exactly how I pictured it and how I wanted it to be. Although it took a lot of wor

    My phone dinged and the screen came on. I looked and saw it was a text notification from Rickon.“Why me” I groaned loudly as I picked up the phone“My office” the text read and I almost broke the table with how hard I slammed my fist into it.I couldn't ignore him so I got to my feet with my laptop so I could discuss the auction since I was going over there anyway.“Hello,” I waved at Jack who was lying on a couch in his office as I walked over to Rickon’s to let him know I wasn't mad.“Hi” he said waving all jolly“He called?” he asked“Yep with a two-word text,” I rolled my eyes“Yep that's him” he laughed“I would be out in a minute or two hours” I shrugged and he laughed even harderThe door opened up before I could press the button.“You called for me” I didn't bother saying hello or whatnot there was no point in that.He was seated behind his table, his head buried in his laptop.“Have you begun preparation for the auction?” he asked“Yes” I nodded“Where is the contract?” he a

    RAEI didn't realize I was still angry until I stepped into the lobby and saw Jack. His face lit up when he saw me walk in, and he waved, but I didn't return the smile and even acted like I didn't see him, just got into the elevator.I was still very angry about the whole Saturday night, and the best way to deal with it was to avoid both Jack and Rickon. I didn't feel like speaking to either of them.The minute I settled in I started to plan for the auction coming up. I first drafted out the contract but before sending it over to Mitchell, Rickon had to approve it and he also had to go through available dates and make a pick. Just so I wouldn’t have to meet him face to face, I decided to put it aside for the meantime. I told myself I would wait until it was almost time for me to get out of work before sending it to his email and leaving immediately after.That way, there would be no chance for him to call me into his office.I kept pushing it away every time I looked at the file sitt

    “You can park right here” I mumbled “Here?” He asked looking at the dilapidated building and back to me “Yes” I whispered in shame “Alright” he didn’t ask any more questions and parked just like I asked “Thank you” I gave an awkward head bow before slipping out of the car I hope he won’t

    “I didn’t do anything I promise” I quickly said, raising my hand in surrender. He just stared at me intensely with a blank expression on his face. I couldn't tell if he was angry or not but who wouldn’t be when I somehow destroyed the work that had been done? I couldn’t even begin to explain how i

    AXEL I was seated in my office buried in work I needed to get rid of. I worked like I wasn’t the CEO of the damn company. My father made me work like a staff under his payroll, it got even worse when I got married to Lianna, as if it was his way of punishing me. He didn’t do anything to stop t

    When I stepped out of the interview room, the candidates who were asked to leave were standing just by the entrance, and the minute I stepped out an eerie silence followed. I turned my eyes to the floor walking out slowly, too ashamed to even move my legs properly.“I can’t believe she is actually
