Henry's POV

A pungent smell hit my nose, and I fought the urge to throw up. I pressed my fingers against the bridge of my nose and my nostrils, but it did nothing to stop the stench from getting in. The stale stench had hit my nose the moment I got in here. One would think that with how posh the building looked from the outside, a small part of it would be bearable, but I guess I knew better now.

I cursed underneath my breath as I walked to the other side of the shoebox of a room I'd b

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Return    177

    177Fredrick's POV My birthday certainly hadn't gone as planned, and I had no idea whom to blame. A part of me had been looking forward to it, because I honestly felt it would be an avenue for me and Alora to make up, but guess what. We didn't, and the fact that it didn't happen only made me sour. I'd woken up in the morning full of hope and expecting a huge surprise. Alora always planned something big for me, and most times I got to wake up to it. In the previous years, there was cake, balloons and everything else I could think of, but this year was different. It was bad enough that I woke up alone, and the worst part, Lena had news for me. Alora wasn't even in the city. She'd gone on a weekend retreat with none other than Nathan Cross. I'd gone wild when I heard the news. On all days, why did it have to be on my birthday? I checked my phone to see if she'd left a text or perhaps an apology, but she'd come up with nothing. I'd forced myself to go to work that day and honestly

    176Alora's POV The next couple of days that followed were nothing short of a drag. Heaven knows how much I'd yearned for each day to pass by in a blur, but they never did. Instead, they stretched longer than I would like, and with each hour that passed, I couldn't help but think back to that fateful night. I knew I was in the wrong for not showing up early, and I had honestly planned on apologizing to him. Ever since Nathan joined our team of investors, it had been one meeting to the other. We were growing, more than I originally thought, and I couldn't even lie that it was exhilarating. I honestly thought Fredrick would share in my happiness, but his output recently wasn't exactly encouraging. He seemed to be closed off and loved starting arguments at the smallest signs, like the night of that business event for example. When Nathan had made that statement, I half expected Fredrick to be proud of me. We weren't the only couple st the event, and a whole lot of people have good

    175Alora's POV I should have known Fredrick pulling me to the corner wouldn't have ended in anything good, what I didn't expect, was for it blow out of proportion all the more. I hated to admit it, but things between Fredrick and I had become worse now, and I just couldn't help but feel like the conversation we had in private had everything to do with it. “What the hell do you think you're doing?” Fredrick had asked, his eyes blazing embers. “What the hell was that supposed to mean?” “I have no idea what you're talking about.” I'd folded my arms in defiance. I was already feeling weird, the last thing I needed was him adding to my troubles. “If you don't have anything to say…”“Why would Nathan say that?” His voice had echoed. “I had barely gotten over the fact that you came with him instead of me, and now this? What are you playing at? What is he playing at?”I kept mute, not knowing what else to say. If I did speak, I knew it would be nothing short of a volcano erupting, so I

    174Alora's POV I wasn't one to easily give up, but at this point, I think it was safe to say that I was fed up. Maybe giving up was too big of a word to describe the situation I was in, but right now, I couldn't exactly figure out the right word to use. If there was one thing I was sure of, it was the frustrating that coursed through my veins. It seemed to be increasing as the the days ran past, and nothing I did was ever enough to stop it. Fredrick wasn't helping either, and honestly, I hadn't been involving him either. Something in me snapped the night I walked in on him and Lena. They weren't in any compromising position whatsoever, but I couldn't shake off the fact that something was wrong. Fredrick had changed ever since Lena climbed the corporate ladder, which was weird because her ride to Fredrick's personal assistant was something that still shocked me till this very moment. I wasn't one to question Fredrick's choices, but when it came to Lena, I would waste no time i

    173Alora's POV It'd been a couple of days since my last meeting with Nathan Cross, and even though it would only stroke his ego to openly admit it, I couldn't deny it any longer. He was a business genius. When we'd started our conversation the other day, I honestly thought he was just bluffing. He'd started a good half of the conversation talking about his many investments and how wealthy he was. At a point, I almost told him I'd had enough of his bragging rights and was no longer interested in the deal. I really was this close to doing it, but he managed to convince me. “I know I don't look like it.” His voice echoed in my ears. “But give me a chance.” “Why?” I'd shot back. “Why should I trust you? You're a business man, and everyone knows that every business man in the city is shrewd and only after their pockets.” “I'll make you a deal.” I hadn't forgotten how high his smirk had risen. “If I invest and we launch a part of our campaign and it blows up, I don't think you will

    172Fredrick’s POV I was anxious, and I hated that feeling with every fiber of my being. It didn't even help that every attempt to try to shake it off just didn't work. Instead of my anxiety going down a notch, it seemed to triple, and I wasn't sure how long I was going to be able to hold it. A sigh slid past my lips as I stared at the paperwork in front of me. Mountains and mountains of files and documents lined my desk, but for the life of me, I just couldn't bring myself to touch any of them. I'd tried doing that in the past one hour, but I think it was safe to say that I wasn't making any progress. I didn't like admitting it, but I needed a distraction, and quick. My mind flickered to Alora immediately, but it was different this time, and that only dampened my mood further. Usually, the thought of Alora would fill my mind with peace and calm, but recently, all she did was feel me with this forboding sense of dread. Maybe I was being overly sensitive, but she'd changed. Yes

    078Alora's POV I tossed and turned, but apparently, it did nothing to ease the torture I was in. Red hot pain seared at my sides, and I found myself whimpering. A dull ache spread through the back of my head, but it did nothing to numb the frequent banging at my left and right cranium. Eve

    063Alora's POV I'd been freaking out since the news reached my ears. In fact, freaking out couldn't even begin to describe how I felt at the moment. I was panicking, fidgeting and every other word that could be used to describe unease could be well and easily related to me right now, and it

    067Alora's POV Honest to God, the only word that could properly describe how my life was going, had to simply be a joke. A sick and twisted joke aimed to make everyone around me laugh except me. While I had to grunt my teeth in pain and go through everything without a little bit of anesthes

    061Eliaz's POV I had never been more proud of myself than I was at this moment. I always thought it was bullshit when people said they cherished other people's reactions, especially the bad ones but right now, I could very well say they weren't overreacting. I loved it. If anyone had told
