The Billionaire Behind My Divorce YOU NEVER WIN
ALICIABy the time Levi returned home that evening, Alicia looked better.She didn’t exactly look healthy or rested, but she was strong enough to disguise the damage beneath the surface.She sat curled into the corner of one of the smaller upstairs living rooms, the television casting soft, shifting light across the walls while quiet dialogue from an old romance movie filled the otherwise peaceful space. The room itself was warmer than most parts of the house emotionally, despite the cool air circulating gently from the built-in vent system above. Dark leather sofas framed the space neatly, shelves lined with books and decorative pieces, softening what would otherwise have looked too polished to live in.A mug of hot cocoa rested between Alicia’s hands, and half a plate of cookies sat untouched beside her.Wrapped around her small frame was the oversized gray sweater that still smelled faintly unfamiliar in the most distracting way possible.She had not realized how comforting warmth
The Billionaire Behind My Divorce HAPPY EVEN
THEODOREUncle Wu’s question followed Theodore long after he left the tea house.Even now, seated alone inside his office with the city glowing beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, the words continued circling quietly through his mind like something unwilling to loosen its grip.Is this protection… or vengeance?Theodore leaned back slowly in his chair, one hand resting against his jaw while the untouched coffee beside him released thin trails of steam into the silence.He did not answer the question.Mostly because he wasn’t entirely certain anymore.His gaze drifted absently toward his knuckles, his mind regurgitating one of the memories he'd also prayed to forget.He had been twenty-four then. Still thin from hunger. Still carrying survival in his body like a permanent state of tension.The box in his arms had nearly blocked half his vision as he walked through the narrow alley behind Uncle Wu’s herbal supply store, carefully balancing a fresh shipment against his chest while tryin

ALICIABut before long, Alicia heard hurried little footsteps approaching from somewhere beyond the living room.“Mommy!”Her eyes flew open.Tobey stood before her with bright excitement bursting across his face, bouncing lightly on his feet as though seeing her had become the highlight of his entire week. Before Alicia could even sit upright properly, he launched himself into her arms, wrapping himself around her with enough force to nearly knock the breath from her lungs.“I missed you so much,” he rushed out breathlessly. “Uncle Liam said you weren’t feeling well, and I wanted to call you, but he said you needed sleep and-”The rest dissolved into noise.Alicia barely heard him.Her arms closed around him instantly, desperately, as though some terrified part of her still feared he might disappear if she loosened her grip even slightly. Tears spilled before she could stop them, hot against her cheeks while she buried her face into his hair.For several seconds, she simply held him.
The Billionaire Behind My Divorce NO CONTINGENCY
ALICIABy morning, Alicia no longer trusted her own body.The fever had dragged through the night without mercy, leaving behind aching muscles, chills that came in violent waves, and a heaviness in her chest that made even sitting upright feel exhausting. Sleep had arrived only in fragments, thin and restless, interrupted by nausea, coughing, and the constant dull ache behind her eyes.Still, she had gotten dressed.Because life, cruelly enough, rarely paused simply because someone was falling apart.Elias found her downstairs just after eight, one hand braced subtly against the kitchen counter while she waited for the kettle to boil.For several seconds, he simply stared.“Madam,” he said carefully, “you look worse.”Alicia gave the faintest hum of amusement. “Good morning to you, too.”“I’m serious.”“I know.”She reached for a mug, but the movement made dizziness sweep unpleasantly through her head. Elias noticed immediately and took the cup from her before she could drop it.“That
The Billionaire Behind My Divorce LOVE OR VENGEANCE
THEODOREHe spent all of the next day debating whether to go.His only decent shirt had sleeves slightly too short at the wrists, and his shoes looked apologetic under direct sunlight. He had no gift to bring, no clever conversation prepared, and absolutely no business standing among rich kids at a birthday party.But sometime before leaving work, he passed the shop’s waste bin and noticed a single rose set aside because the stem had bent slightly.It was still beautiful.So he took it home carefully, trimmed the stem the way he had seen the florists do, and carried it to Vermont Park that evening like it was something sacred.The party was enormous.Music floated across the lawns while strings of warm lights glowed between trees, and teenagers dressed in designer clothes crowded around decorated tables, laughing loudly enough to sound important.Theodore stopped near the entrance almost immediately.Wrong place, his mind whispered.The feeling arrived fast and familiar, crawling bene
The Billionaire Behind My Divorce NON-NEGOTIOABLE
ALICIAAlicia returned home with an exhaustion that settled directly into the bones, heavy and irreversible, draining warmth from her body until even breathing felt like effort. The drive back had passed in silence, yet her mind had not been quiet for a single second.Theodore’s jacket still lingered in her thoughts. The warmth of it. The scent. It was funny how it had felt so natural that she almost walked away with it.The way he had draped it around her shoulders without asking permission first, as though caring for her was instinctive enough to bypass thought entirely.Then her thoughts drifted toward Tobey waiting somewhere inside that enormous house, surrounded by people who had never cared for his existence.A sharp ache twisted inside her chest.By the time she stepped through the front doors, the light in her eyes had dimmed into something distant and hollow.Elias saw her first. He had been arranging fresh mail near the staircase when he looked up, concern settling over his
