Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 250
Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe call comes just past nine in the morning.I’m alone in my office, the door shut, blinds half-closed against the sunlight bleeding through the glass. There’s a spreadsheet open on my laptop, its columns and numbers untouched, blinking like they’re waiting for someone who still cares. I’ve been staring at it for the better part of an hour without reading a single line.My mind hasn’t been in this building for days. Not really. Not since Caroline walked away from me again, and not since I started this private investigation—the one I promised myself I wouldn’t start unless I was ready to know the truth.The phone buzzes against the wood of my desk.Private Number.I already know who it is.I hesitate for a beat. My thumb hovers above the answer icon like it’s a tr

Caroline’s Point of ViewI rehearse the words in my head all morning.Not with anger. Not with accusation. Just… clarity.“I want to handle my meetings alone.”It sounds simple. Rational. Even professional. But each time I whisper it under my breath, it feels like I’m breaking something delicate—like a glass between us that’s held us in place.I wait until the car ride home, when the silence between Adrian and me stretches a little too long. The city lights pass in a blur outside the window, and Liam’s laughter still echoes faintly in my memory from earlier when he was playing in the office lounge.My hands are clasped tightly in my lap.“Adrian,” I start, carefully.“Hmm?” he says, not looking up from his phone.I wait until he does. He glances over, and I hold his gaze.“I was thinking… starting next week, I’d like to go back to handling my meetings on my own.”His expression doesn’t falter. Not at first.But I notice the pause—half a beat too long.Then, a soft laugh. “Caroline, yo

Caroline's Point of ViewAdrian smiles as he slides the tablet across the breakfast table, the screen angled toward me like a present I never asked for. “Your day looks lighter now,” he says, his tone warm, almost proud. “I took care of the double-booked slot this morning, and I moved your budget review to Thursday.”I blink, a fork halfway to my mouth. “You… moved it?”He nods easily, like it’s nothing. “You mentioned last week how you hate back-to-back meetings. Figured I’d help. Just trying to make your life easier.”I force a small smile, stabbing my fork into the pale yolk of my egg. “Thanks,” I murmur.But there’s a tightness in my chest that doesn’t ease with his gesture. I don’t remember mentioning anything about hating back-to-backs last week. Maybe I did in passing. Maybe I said it in a moment of exhaustion and forgot.Still, I reach for my phone without thinking, tapping open my calendar—and sure enough, the entries are changed. Some are color-coded now. There’s even a note
Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 247
Caroline's Point of ViewI’m surrounded by white. White papers, white sample linens, white envelopes, and white silence. It should feel beautiful—exciting even. Brides dream of moments like this, right? Sketching out their wedding, choosing flowers and centerpieces, picking calligraphy for names that will sit on top of a thousand tables. But I feel none of that.I just feel... disconnected.Because while my name is on every piece of stationery on this table, my voice hasn’t been anywhere in the planning.Adrian’s already chosen the venue. The date. The theme. The catering. Even the color of the napkin rings.I found out about the string quartet from the event planner’s email yesterday.I let out a breath and push back from the dining table, the back of my neck tight with something I can’t name—guilt? Frustration? Both?The front door opens.Adrian steps inside, his suit jacket folded neatly over one arm and a tablet tucked in the other.“Oh good, you’re home,” he says without looking
Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 246
Penelope's Point of ViewI don’t mean to snoop.I swear I don’t.But Lorenzo left his house in a rush, his son crying about some forgotten stuffed dinosaur, and I just wanted to be helpful. I was picking up clothes from the couch when the drawer near the TV stand wouldn’t shut properly. A thin corner of paper was wedged between the wood. I tug it free without thinking—then freeze.It’s an envelope. Old, yellowed at the edges. My name isn’t on it. Neither is Lorenzo’s. But the handwriting is unmistakably feminine—looped, gentle. On the back, it reads only one word in faded ink."For him."My chest tightens.I shouldn’t open it.I do.The paper is soft from age, worn at the folds. I hold it carefully like it might crumble, but the words... they p
Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 245
Caroline’s Point of ViewThe soft thrum of music fills the ballroom, muffled only slightly by the nervous drum of my heart.Adrian's hand rests firmly on the small of my back as we walk into the event. The moment we step in, cameras flash. I lift my chin, smile gently, like I’ve been taught, like I’ve practiced in front of the mirror. I don’t say anything.Because I don’t know what to say anymore.Everyone turns when they see Adrian. His name carries weight, so of course they come circling. But tonight feels… different. Because I’m not just standing next to him. I’m the woman he introduces as his fiancée.“Everyone,” he says confidently, his arm tightening slightly around me, “you all know Caroline Hill. Soon to be Caroline Wayne.”There’s a wave of polite laughter, applause
