“Nichole!!”

Xavier jerked up immediately from his sleep as his head snapped back from the chair where he had dozed off. His eyes fluttered, and for a moment he didn’t recognize where he was. Pacing his eyes around ...and then he realised it was just a dream.

His gaze fell on Nichole immediately as she lay motionless, frail and pale, yet stunning even in unconsciousness. Her eyelashes rested lightly on her cheeks, her lips slightly parted and her breathing gentle. Her hair which was once meticul

  • My Ex-husband Billion Dollar Mistakes    Chapter 76- Mira’s Revenge

    POV: NicholeIt has been two days in the woods.The satellite phone on the kitchen counter buzzed three times against the wood. Xavier picked it up on the fourth ring. He did not say hello but he just listened.I watched him from the cot. His face did not change color, but the skin around his eyes tightened. He reached into his pocket, pulled out his black titanium debit card, and dropped it onto the table."When?" Xavier asked the caller as he paused. "All of them? Even the offshore holding account?"He ended the call without a goodbye and then looked at the card on the table."My personal accounts are locked," Xavier said. "The bank cited an emergency audit regarding corporate fund mismanagement and Mira’s father sits on the compliance committee."A cold sweat broke out along my hairline. Xavier had given up his salary when he resigned, but this was different. This was total extraction. He had zero dollars and the gasoline in his car’s tank and the cash in his wallet, eighty-four do

  • My Ex-husband Billion Dollar Mistakes    Chapter 75- The Ultimatum

    POV: NicholeAround 9pm in the night.The sound of heavy tires on gravel broke the morning silence as I sat up immediately in the small cot, my muscles stiff. Then through the reinforced window slats, two black luxury cars sat idling in the dirt.‘Who could that be?’ I thought.The heavy iron front door opened as Xavier’s mother walked in first. She wore a black wool coat with a sable collar. Her face was pale but rigid, showing no signs of the collapse from the ballroom and behind her lined four men in identical charcoal suits, each carrying a leather briefcase.“What is she doing here?”Her cold eyes scanned the bare concrete walls, passed over Elena sitting on the stool, and stopped on me as her lips thinned into a straight line. Then she turned her gaze to Xavier, who stood by the cold wood stove."You look ridiculous in this place, son," she said and her voice did not shake. "The board meeting is at noon today and the press is outside the townhouse. You will get in the car with

  • My Ex-husband Billion Dollar Mistakes    Chapter 74 The Safehouse

    POV: NicholeThe gravel crunched under the tires as the sedan crawled to a stop. Xavier off the headlights and the entire forest swallowed us in absolute darkness.We got out of the car. The air smelled of damp earth and pine needles. Ahead sat a low, concrete structure with a flat roof and reinforced steel window shutters. It did not look like a house but resembles a bunker.Xavier pushed open the heavy iron door and inside, the air was cold and smelled of dust. He walked straight to the kitchen counter where a row of black electronics sat. He picked up his personal phone, corporate phone, and the car’s GPS transponder. He took a small metal tool from his pocket, popped the SIM cards out, and snapped them in half with his thumbs. He dropped the pieces into a glass of water on the counter. Then he turned to us."We are off the grid," Xavier said flatly. "Mira's father has connections with the state police but they cannot track the signals here."Elena sank into an old leather armc

    POV: NicholeXavier’s hand clamped around my wrist, his fingers were cold, but his grip was like iron. He pulled me away from the wall and my heels skidded on a wet patch of spilled champagne.But he didn't slow down. He dragged me straight through the cluster of guests.I looked down as we passed his mother who lay lifeless on her side, her grey silk gown soaked in red wine from the broken glass and a man in a tuxedo was loosening her collar. Two feet away, Mira was screaming into her phone, her mascara running in dark tracks down her cheeks. She looked up, saw us, and pointed a red-nailed finger."Stop them!" she shrieked at us.Xavier ignored her as he pushed past Lord Sterling, who was his uncle, shoulder-charging the older man out of the way. Elena ran hard behind us, her hand holding up the hem of her heavy dress so she wouldn't trip.We burst through the heavy glass exit doors into the night air. Instantly, the dark was gone as white light exploded in my eyes. Ten paparazzi o

  • My Ex-husband Billion Dollar Mistakes    Chapter 72- The Standstill

    POV: NicholeThe four security guards in black suits dragged me and Elena. Their shoes banged on the polished marble. I pressed my back against the ballroom wall as the gold leaf on the molding dug into my shoulder blades."Stop and leave her alone." Xavier’s voice cut through the room as the guards stopped instantly. Two of them dropped their hands to their sides as Xavier approached us and looked straight at me who was helplessly held by the guards. He did not look at the three hundred guests in the room as his breath came fast and furious. His mouth stayed slightly open as his blood boiled in fury and an angry line formed between his eyebrows.The silence in the boardroom lasted for five seconds and after that people started whispering. The sound grew from a low hum into a loud rattle as Mrs. Vance Xavier's mother shifted her diamond necklace Xavier's uncle stepped back into the shadow of a marble pillar.Across the floor, Mira stood next to the tiered cake, her fingers curled int

    POV: Nichole"Nichole?"Xavier called as his eyes widened in shock seeing me present in his engagement party.The whole hall went silent and every glass stopped moving. All conversation died and over two hundred people turned and stared at the door where I was standing and nobody made a sound.Xavier had a velvet box in his hand and his knee was still coming off the floor. He looked at me like he was seeing something he had buried weeks ago suddenly standing in front of him and breathing.Elena placed her hand against my back as we walked in.My heels hit the floor and the people moved to the sides, clearing the way for me, but I kept my eyes on Xavier and kept walking.Then his mother stepped in front of me."What are you doing here, you creep?" She spoke with so much venom in her words. "How did you get in here?""I need to talk to Xavier Ma'am."I said."No, you need to turn around and walk back out the way you came.""Please, just let me….""I said get out of here! Let you what?" S
