The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous Chapter 45: The Unexpected Matriarch
Andre’s POVI reached into my jacket and gripped the handle of my gun while pulling Avery behind my back, and I stepped out onto the terrace with my shoes pressing quietly against the floor tiles while the shadow near the glass doors suddenly moved into the light. The figure stepped fully into the terrace lights, and instead of a hitman sent by Marcus, an elderly woman in an expensive suit holding a small dog under her arm looked at us with an irritated expression while three huge suitcases sat on the floor beside her."You can put that weapon away right now, Andre, because if I wanted to have you shot, I wouldn't stand out on a balcony in the humidity waiting for you to finish your little elevator ride," Grandmother Eleanor said, setting the tiny dog down on the ground where it immediately ran past my feet and into the living room."Grandmother Eleanor, what are you doing standing outside our private terrace entrance at eleven o'clock at night without giving us any warning, and how d
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous Chapter 44: The Grand Humiliation
Avery’s POVThe private island getaway had successfully forced Marcus to sail his broken yacht back to the Florida coast for repairs, but the final showdown of this ridiculous elite property war was currently taking place inside the grand banquet hall of the Plaza Hotel where the city's top ten families were gathered for the annual founders' dinner. Andre and I were sitting at our premium center table right next to the governor, and Marcus Vance was sitting directly across from us looking completely miserable after his expensive Caribbean failure, yet his bruised ego was clearly driving him to make one last public attempt to embarrass our partnership in front of the entire high-society board.The waiters were currently circulating the room with heavy silver trays containing the appetizers, and Marcus immediately cleared his throat loudly and tapped his crystal water glass with a spoon to draw the attention of the surrounding guests to our sectio
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous Chapter 43: Crashing the Private Island
Andre’s POVWe managed to fix the penthouse water supply line by using my secondary emergency cistern pumps, but the absolute headache of Marcus’s endless high-society harassment had finally reached a point where I needed to get Avery completely away from the city limits for a few days. My private jet had dropped us off at my secluded tropical island estate in the Bahamas yesterday afternoon, and the morning sun was finally shining perfectly over the white sand beach while Avery sat peacefully on a luxury lounge chair with a book and a cold drink.I was just starting to relax in my swim trunks while pouring us two fresh glasses of fruit juice, but the quiet sound of the ocean waves was suddenly shattered by the massive, rumbling roar of a diesel engine out on the water."Andre, please tell me that is just a standard tourist cruise liner passing by our reef, because if that vessel turns around toward our private bay, I am going to lose m
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous Chapter 42: The Battle of the Outfits
Avery’s POVThe unseasonal storm from the golf tournament had finally cleared up by the next morning, but a completely new disaster was currently waiting for me in my dressing room because the annual high-society autumn gala was happening tonight, and my personal shopper had just called me in a total state of hysteria. Marcus Vance had apparently found out exactly which high-end boutiques I used for my formal wear, and he had literally spent the last twenty-four hours hiring the world’s most exclusive French fashion designer to buy out every single luxury dress in my exact size across the entire city.I was standing in my robe staring at my empty wardrobe racks when the doorbell rang, and I walked out into the main living room only to find a courier holding a massive, obnoxious purple box with a note from Marcus pinned right to the silk ribbon."What on earth is that massive delivery, Avery, because it looks exactly like the kind of ove
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous Chapter 41: The Country Club Climax
Alexa’s POVI stood by the main registration desk at the rolling green country club holding two oversized clipboards because the committee had officially appointed me as the reluctant mediator for the annual elite tournament, and the atmosphere on the grass was already boiling hot before the first ball was even struck. Marcus Vance had used his massive corporate sponsorship check to completely hijack the entire morning registry, and as I looked at the official pairing sheets, I could see he had deliberately placed himself in the premium starting duo right beside Avery while shoving Andre into a miserable group behind them with the city's three most annoying, gossipy socialites.Andre was currently standing near the equipment racks with his knuckles turning completely white around the handle of his expensive graphite driver, and his eyes were locked onto Marcus, who was leaning against his brand-new, custom-built luxury golf cart with a ridiculous grin on his face."Alexa, you need to
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous 040_The Penthouse Pest
Andre’s POVI was completely losing my mind because the heavy thumping of a live mariachi band had been vibrating straight through our master bedroom floorboards since three in the morning, and this was the fourth night in a row that Marcus Vance had thrown an absurdly lavish party in the penthouse suite directly below ours just to disrupt our peace. Avery was sitting on our living room sofa wrapped in a blanket with a deeply annoyed expression on her face, and I finally couldn't take the ridiculous noise anymore, so I threw on a casual shirt and marched straight out to the private elevator lobby to put an end to this childish real estate harassment.I slammed my hand against the call button, and the doors slid open immediately to reveal Marcus himself already standing inside the car, looking completely smug while wearing a tailored designer suit and holding a half-empty glass of expensive tequila."You need to shut that circus down right now, Marcus, because the building bylaws expli
The Billionaire's Ex-Wife: Declared Dead, Returned Dangerous 004_The Mother’s Visit
Avery’s POVI didn't sleep as much as Marcus told me to. Every time I closed my eyes I could still feel the phantom pressure of the needle in my arm. So I spent most of the night sitting by the window and watching the city lights flicker while I drank tea that had gone cold hours ago.I was just st

Avery’s POVStill, as the elevator doors glided shut on Julian’s stunned face, I felt the slight pressure in my stomach as the lift rose toward the top floor. I just stood there watching the gold numbers climb while I tried to keep my hands from shaking.I reached the penthouse level and stepped ou

Avery’s POVI walked through the hospital's lobby with my head held high. I could feel the eyes of the receptionist on me as she whispered something into her headset while looking at my wrinkled clothes and the bandage on my arm.I knew she had probably seen the news leak Julian mentioned, and to h

Avery’s POVThe fluorescent lights in the recovery room were humming in a way that made my head feel like it was splitting open. I could still feel the cold sting in my vein where the nurse had just finished drawing a pint of my blood.I had been doing this every month for three years because Julia
