Dolly’s Point of View

I sit back in my chair, scrolling through the comments on my latest PR post, feeling a rush of satisfaction. They’re calling me “the most beautiful and talented jewelry designer,” “the perfect match” for Knoxx. I see comment after comment about how Knoxx and I look great together, how we make such a powerful couple. I smile to myself, imagining how perfect my life will be once all of this falls into place. Each comment strokes my ego, making me feel like I’m exactly where I deserve to be.

I lean back in my chair and close my eyes, replaying the last few months in my mind. Everything has been leading up to this moment. But it wasn’t always like this. There was a time when I almost lost it all.

I had Knoxx wrapped around my finger, but back then, it wasn’t enough. I craved more. More money, more prestige. Knoxx was successful, yes, but there was another man. I met an old, rich, charming, powerful man—he had promised me the world. So, I left everything behind to be

  • Secret Billionaire Divorcee   Chapter 215

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe whiskey burns going down, but I don’t flinch.I don’t even blink.I pour another glass. Let it fill to the rim before I bring it to my lips.The house is quiet. Too quiet. Elle’s at her aunt’s place tonight. I told her I had meetings. Told myself I needed time to think.But all I’ve done is sit here. Alone. Drinking. Thinking.And staring at the same damn photo on my phone.Liam.He’s laughing in it. A wide, full smile, his teeth showing. His eyes crinkled at the corners.He’s not even looking at the camera—he’s looking at Caroline. She’s off to the side, probably making him laugh with one of her stupid jokes. He looks happy. Whole.I lean forward, resting my elbows on my knees, the glass still in my hand.He should’ve been laughing with me.I should’

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe press conference room feels colder than it should.Maybe it’s the nerves. Or maybe it’s guilt. It doesn’t matter. I sit there in front of the microphone, eyes locked on the crowd of journalists filtering in—cameras, notepads, recorders.All of them waiting to hear what the CEO of Wayne & Co. is about to say.I glance at the clock behind them.Three minutes left.My heart pounds. I’ve faced shareholders before. Negotiated millions. Led boardroom takeovers. But this is different.Because this time, I’m here to burn myself down.“Sir,” my assistant whispers beside me, handing over a final document. “Press release, just in case you want to stick to the talking points.”I shake my head slowly. “No script.”He nods, lips tight.I wait until the countdown hits zero

    Knoxx’s Point of View“You can’t do this to me, Knoxx!”Dolly’s voice pierces the air like a siren. We’re inside the station office, and heads are turning. I don’t care. Let them watch.I stop walking.She catches up to me, breath heavy, her slippers scraping the pavement. She grabs my wrist.“You think you can just erase me like that?” she snaps. “After everything we’ve been through?”I pull my hand back. “What we’ve been through was built on a lie.”Dolly laughs—short and bitter. “You benefited from it, Knoxx. Don’t pretend you didn’t.”I grit my teeth. “I made mistakes. But I didn’t drag a child into it to trap someone.”She scoffs. “You loved Elle.”My throat tightens. I did. I still do. But it’s not the same now.

    Caroline's Point of ViewAdrian’s quiet when we get home.Too quiet.Liam runs ahead of us, kicking his shoes off and flopping on the couch like nothing happened. Like Knoxx didn’t show up. Like my entire body didn’t go cold when I saw him staring at our son like he recognized something he shouldn't have.I don't know how Liam does it—how he carries so much light without realizing the darkness trying to crawl back in.I set my purse down on the counter and open the fridge just to keep my hands busy. I’m not hungry. I’m not thirsty. I just need something to do so I don’t look at Adrian and answer the questions I know are waiting in his silence.He finally speaks when Liam runs upstairs to get his toy robot.“I didn’t mean to listen.”I close the fridge and look at him. “You did.”He exhales slowly. “I only heard part of it.”I don’t answer.He walks toward me, slow, measured. “You asked Knoxx why it matters now.”My jaw tightens. “It doesn’t.”He stops a few steps away from me. His eye

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewI spend the entire week drowning in files.Surveillance reports. Background checks. Photos.Everything I can get my hands on about Caroline Hill.I don’t eat much. I barely sleep. Every time I close my eyes, I see his face. Liam. The way he held his chopsticks. The exact curl of his lip when he frowned at the lake. The same way I used to as a kid, according to my mother.At first, I tried to shrug it off.Coincidence.Kids mimic adults. Maybe he got it from someone else.But the more I watched, the more it gnawed at me. The way he walks. The shape of his fingers. The look he gives when he’s unsure about something. I’ve seen it before. In the mirror.So I called in a favor. No name, no paperwork. Just a quiet investigation. One of the old agents who sti

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewI don’t know why I’m still standing here.I should’ve left ten minutes ago. Elle’s been huffing beside me, trying to get my attention, whispering shit under her breath about how boring this place is. I ignore her.I can’t look away.Caroline is laughing at something the kid says. She hands him a napkin, brushes something off his cheek. Her hand lingers on the side of his face for a second. And he leans into it.It should annoy me.But it doesn’t.It makes something twist in my chest.I don’t even know this kid. And yet—He’s sitting between her and Adrian like it’s the most natural thing in the world. They look like a family. Like that’s how it’s always been.I know it’s n
