The Billionaire’s Betrayed Bride Chapter 219
ETHAN’S POV“You did what?”The words cracked through the room like a whip.I didn’t flinch or move. I didn’t even blink.I simply stood there, hands in my pockets, as my father’s voice echoed off the walls of the family estate like I had just confessed to murder instead of something far worse.Failure.“I divorced her,” I repeated flatly. Silence followed, heavy. The kind that suffocates.This was the first time I was letting them know about the divorce, because Riley would tell them if I didn't.I'd begged her to keep it from our families till I was ready to tell them myself. The case with Sofia had been one of my flings, they never took it seriously and still believed Riley and I were married.My mother sank slowly into one of the armchairs, her hand pressing lightly against her chest like she needed something to steady herself.“You… divorced Riley?” she asked, her voice softer but no less shocked.I nodded once.Across the room, my uncle let out a short, disbelieving laugh. “T

RILEY’S POVBeing discharged from the hospital should have felt like freedom.Instead, It felt like I had just been transferred from one form of supervision to another.“Careful.” Claire said.I rolled my eyes. “I am being careful.”“Not careful enough.”I turned my head slowly to glare at Claire, who was hovering at my side like a bodyguard with a personal vendetta against gravity.“I’m literally just walking,” I said.“Yes, and you almost tripped.”“I did not go on a trip.” I argued.“You almost tripped.” she insisted “That doesn’t count.”“It does to me.”I sighed. This was going to be a long day.Aiden walked slightly ahead of us, one hand in his pocket, the other holding the car keys. He hadn’t said much since the doctor discharged me, but the tension in his shoulders hadn’t eased, not even a little.And that alone told me everything I needed to know. The doctor’s words had gotten to him.No stress, proper hydration and rest. Simple instructions.Apparently impossible for me to

RILEY'S POV When I came back, it was slower, like surfacing from deep water.Voices first, muffled then clearer.“…she’s coming around.”“Good.”Aiden, that was Aiden.I forced my eyes open, the light made me blink. The ceiling above me was unfamiliar.Not the shop, a clinic or maybe a small medical room.Aiden was right there, leaning forward and watching me like he hadn’t blinked in hours.“Hey,” he said softly.My throat felt dry. “…Hi.”Relief flooded his expression so quickly it almost hurt to look at.“You fainted.”“I figured.” I forced a smile.“How do you feel?”“Like I embarrassed myself in public.”“You did.” he said teasingly.I groaned softly. “Great.”“But you’re okay,” he added quickly. “That’s what matters.”My hand moved again, instinctively to my stomach. His hand followed immediately.“They checked,” he said gently. “Everything’s fine.”The tension in my chest eased instantly. “Okay,”That was all that mattered. I closed my eyes briefly, then opened them again.“Yo

AIDEN’S POVThe first thing I noticed was how still she looked, too still.Riley had never been someone I associated with stillness. Even when she was quiet, there was always something going on beneath the surface thoughts, resistance, and emotion she refused to show.But right now, lying on that narrow hospital bed, an IV line running into her arm, her lashes resting against her cheeks…She looked fragile and I hated it.“She’s stable.”I barely registered the doctor stepping into the room, my attention stayed on Riley.“She fainted due to dehydration and mild exhaustion,” he continued.That got my attention, I turned sharply. “Dehydration?”“Yes,” he nodded calmly. “It’s not uncommon, especially in pregnancy. The body requires significantly more fluids.”My jaw tightened. “She’s been eating,” I said.“Eating and hydrating are not the same,” he replied evenly.I didn’t like his tone, I liked what he was saying even less.“She’s also under stress,” he added.That part landed harder t

RILEY'S POV The hospital air felt different once we stepped outside. Lighter and less suffocating.I hadn’t realized how tense I’d been until the automatic doors slid shut behind us and I could finally breathe properly again.Beside me, Aiden adjusted his sleeves, his movements calm but purposeful, like he was still carrying the remnants of worry for his mother.“She’s really okay?” I asked, glancing up at him.He nodded. “She will be. She’s stubborn, which helps.”I smiled faintly. “I noticed.”A brief silence settled between us as we walked toward the parking lot.“Ice cream?.” He asked.I blinked. “What?”He looked down at me, completely serious. “You need ice cream.”A laugh slipped out before I could stop it. “That’s a very bold medical prescription.”“I’m serious.”“I can tell,” I said, amused. “But I’m fine. You don’t have to…”“I’m not asking,” he cut in smoothly.I narrowed my eyes slightly. “That sounds suspiciously like you’re asking.”“It’s not.”I folded my arms. “I shou

RILEY'S POV “…Oh my.”The words slipped out of her mouth slowly, like a realization unfolding piece by piece.Her gaze moved between me and Aiden again, slower this time. Observant and calculating.I felt my face heat slightly under the attention.Aiden cleared his throat. “Mom…”“Don’t interrupt,” she said, holding up a finger without looking at him.His mouth closed immediately. Which, strangely enough, told me everything I needed to know about their dynamic.She looked back at me, her eyes bright with curiosity now.“So,” she said thoughtfully. “You’re Riley.”“Yes.” I nodded slowly with a smile.“And you’re… pregnant.”My hand instinctively moved to my stomach. “Yes.”Her eyes flicked to Aiden again. “And you two know each other.”Aiden sighed softly. “Mom…”“Still not finished.” she hushed him.I pressed my lips together to keep from smiling.She leaned forward slightly in the bed, studying me with even more interest now. “You saved my life today.”“It wasn’t that dramatic,” I s

RILEY'S POV The hours in the cold, windowless room stretched into something shapeless, something cruel. I’d stopped trying to guess the time. Her body ached from the hard floor, and her throat felt raw from the cold air.But something inside me remained stubbornly alive. I wasn't going to die her

OWEN’S POVI'd just kicked off my shoes when my phone vibrated on the kitchen counter. I didn't bother checking the caller ID, knowing fully well only one person ever called at this hour, and only for one purpose.Aiden.I swiped to answer. “Yeah?”There was no greeting. Aiden’s voice came through

AIDEN'S POV I couldn't sleep, I in fact hadn't slept a wink since Riley went missing. But tonight, exhaustion wrapped me like a curse.Owen’s program had finally narrowed her location down to a single industrial axis on the outskirts of town. It wasn’t exact, not a building number or street, but

ETHAN'S POV I had never been good at managing my temper, but tonight, it was a different beast entirely. Rage sat in my veins like molten metal, hot and blistering, carving its way through every rational thought. My hands trembled where I gripped the edge of the bar in my study, knuckles pale, j
