~Aliyah’s POV~

His voice hung in the air between us.

“Why did you lie to me?”

My lips parted, but nothing came out at first. The lump in my throat was thick, painful, almost choking me.

“Ronald… listen, please,” I whispered.

He took one step closer.

That was enough to trigger every alarm in my body.

“I didn’t lie,” I rushed out, hands shaking. “I truly went to the restroom. That moment with Dominic wasn’t what it looked like. We were just…”

My head snapped to the side.

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Forty Five

    ~Aliyah's Pov~Days passed in a blur.Everything moved so quickly, yet somehow felt slow at the same time, like I was drifting through moments without fully holding onto them. The fear of Ronald’s sudden interference lingered in the back of my mind, constant and unsettling, like a shadow that refused to leave.That was why Dominic had suggested it.A secret wedding.Something small and private with only a few important people, those we trusted, would be there.To avoid noise, chaos, and any room for interruption.And now…here I am.Standing in front of the mirror, my reflection staring right back at me, dressed in white once again.Clara stood behind me, focused as she carefully added the final touches to my makeup. Her hands were steady, precise, as if she understood just how much this moment meant.“You will make the most beautiful bride, Aliyah,” she said softly, a small smile tugging at her lips as she leaned in slightly to adjust something near my eyes.I let out a quiet breath,

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Forty Four

    ~Dominic's Pov~Everything unfolding around me wasn’t exactly how I had imagined it, not even close.Despite everything, despite my mother’s cold words, her public disowning, the way she had cut me off as if I meant nothing… I was still a Voss.That name… it wasn’t something you simply walked away from, it was blood and legacy and no matter how far I tried to distance myself from it, it still clung to me.I couldn’t just stand by and watch a rival tear down everything my father had built. I couldn’t pretend it had nothing to do with me.‘How would I face my ancestors in the future?’ The thought echoed heavily in my mind as I strode down the stairs, my steps firm, measured.Each step felt like a decision, a commitment and a burden I couldn’t ignore.I exhaled deeply, running a hand through my hair as a strange sense of relief settled over my shoulders.But even with that, the truth remained…the Voss company… it wasn’t entirely my responsibility anymore. It has Ronald now.But Aliyah?A

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Forty Three

    ~Aliyah's Pov~The ride to Clara’s house felt longer than it should have.Every second stretched endlessly, each passing street making my heart pound harder against my chest. I sat stiffly, my fingers curled tightly in my lap, my thoughts racing ahead of me.What if we’re too late?What if something has already happened?The silence in the car didn’t help. Even with Dominic beside me, calm and focused, I couldn’t shake the unease gnawing at me from the inside.Finally, the car slowed and stopped.“We’re here,” Dominic said quietly.I didn’t wait.The moment the car halted completely, I pushed the door open and rushed out, my steps quick and unsteady as I made my way straight into the building.Behind me, I vaguely saw Dominic sorting out the payment, grabbing our luggage, but I didn’t slow down.I couldn’t.All that mattered was Clara.I reached her apartment door in seconds and knocked.Once.Twice.Three times.It was hard and urgent, but I got no response.My heart dropped instantl

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Forty Two

    ~Ronald's Pov~I slept over at Clara’s house.Of course… it hadn’t been easy.Getting her to agree had taken more effort than I expected. She fought me, argued, resisted, demanded explanations, but in the end, none of it mattered. I took control of the situation the only way I knew how.I seized her phone.Took it from her hands before she could stop me. After restraining her, after making sure she couldn’t interfere, I kept the device close, my eyes fixed on the screen like it held the outcome of everything.Because in a way… it did.I had no real intention of hurting her, as that was never the goal, she was just… leverage.A means to an end.What I needed was Aliyah.And this…this was the only way to make her come back. To force her out of hiding and to make her choose.And as I stared at the message glowing on the screen, something dark and satisfied settled in my chest.She had responded.She finally took the bait.A slow breath left my lips as I read her message again, letting it

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Forty One

    ~Aliyah's Pov~Dominic stepped out of the bathroom, water still clinging to his skin, droplets sliding slowly down from his damp hair to his chin. A faint trail followed the line of his jaw before falling onto his shirt, darkening the fabric in small patches.He barely noticed, his eyes found me immediately and the moment they did, everything in his expression changed. The calm… disappeared, replaced by something sharper, urgent and concerned.“Aliyah…what’s wrong?” he asked quickly, closing the distance between us in long strides.Before I could even gather my thoughts, his hands were on mine, warm and firm, grounding, but it wasn’t enough to steady the storm raging inside me.I didn’t answer him.I couldn’t.Instead, with trembling fingers, I shoved my phone toward him, my grip unsteady as I forced him to look at the screen.“It’s Ronald,” I said, my voice breaking despite my effort to stay composed. “He kidnapped Clara… she’s in danger, Dominic.”The words came out rushed, panicked

    ~Clara's Pov~“What idea?” I asked cautiously, my voice slower now, more careful, as a quiet unease crept into my chest.He didn’t answer immediately, not even a word. Instead, he stepped closer.Too close.Close enough that the space between us disappeared entirely, close enough that I could feel the shift in the air, the weight of his presence pressing in on me. My breath caught slightly as I instinctively stiffened, my body reacting before my mind could fully catch up.And then I saw it, the intent in his eyes.Clear, unsettling and deliberate.“An idea that will make your dear friend come back to me,” he said softly, his tone almost calm—too calm for what he was implying.My stomach dropped.A cold, sinking feeling that twisted sharply, tightening with every passing second.“What…” I started, confusion and alarm blending together as I tried to process what he meant.But before I could finish…his hand shot out fast and sudden, grabbing my wrist hard.“Ronald, what the hell…let go o

    ~Aliyah's Pov~The moment the car stopped, I barely had time to breathe before Ronald yanked the door open.“Get out.”His voice was sharp and impatient.It cut through the space between us without hesitation, leaving no room for delay, no room for argument.For a split second, I didn’t move.Not b

    ~Aliyah's Pov~My thumb hovered over Ronald’s contact again.Call.End.Call.End.The screen felt heavier in my hand with every failed attempt, like the silence on the other end was mocking me.“Pick up…” I muttered under my breath, my brows drawn together in frustration.Nothing.I inhaled sharpl

    ~Aliyah's Pov~Morning came too quietly.There was no sudden noise, no harsh interruption to pull me out of sleep. Just a soft, gradual awareness, like the world had decided to wake gently for once.For a moment, I didn’t remember where I was.My mind hovered in that fragile space between sleep and

  • The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Scandalous Revenge   Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Three

    ~Dominic's Pov~Something didn’t sit right the moment she left.It started as a small, nagging feeling in the back of my mind, subtle but persistent. The kind that didn’t shout for attention but refused to be ignored.I stood there in the hallway, unmoving, my eyes fixed on the door long after it h
