The city had again begun to thaw. Snow melted along sidewalks, leaving behind damp streets and a chill that clung to skin like unfinished revenge. But inside Blackwell Industries, the tension was colder than winter, and far more icy.

Lucian stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in his office, his arms crossed and aw locked. He was staring at his phone, at a name he had saved just yesterday.

Alina Shore.

The last known nurse who had been with Isla during her hospital stay five years ago. T

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Epilogue - The Tides of Happiness

    Three years had passed since the whirlwind of revelations, reunions, and celebrations that had reshaped their lives. The Blackwell and Dufort families were closer than ever and the laughter of children now filled both mansions, echoing like music across sunlit rooms.The morning sun cast a warm glow over the soft sand of a secluded beach. Lucian and Isla walked hand in hand, barefoot, letting the gentle waves touch at their feet. Their daughter, Isabella, now five, had her dad's blue eyes. She darted ahead happily with her little pail and shovel, squealing as she built sandcastles. Aaric, who was now twelve, ran beside her, carefully supervising, but laughing as he let her add a few extra towers that toppled almost immediately.Lucian glanced down at Isla, her hair glinting in the sunlight, the corners of her lips curling into that familiar, heart-stopping smile. “They’re growing so fast,” he murmured, brushing a strand of hair from her face.Isla laughed softly, resting her head brie

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Sunshine & Laughter

    The morning sun bathed the Blackwell mansion in its warm glow and golden light, promising a day full of warmth and joy. Lucian was already in the driveway, carrying Isabella in his arms, while Aaric laughed excitedly beside him, his little backpack swinging slightly. Isla was holding a picnic basket, followed closely behind, smiling at the sight of her husband’s relaxed grin.“We’ll take Kian and Selene, and Elena and Leo,” Lucian reminded, glancing at Isla. “It’s going to be crowded but fun.”Isla laughed softly, adjusting Isabella in her arms. “It’s going to be damn chaotic,” she teased, “but the best kind of chaos.”By mid-morning, the group had gathered at a sprawling park, a private section reserved just for them. Selene, glowing with her pregnancy, laughed as Kian helped her settle on a blanket, while Elena sat beside Leo, who was trying to juggle a soccer ball with Aaric watching in wonder.“Come on, Papa! Play with me!” Aaric shouted, tugging at his father’s hand. Lucian chuc

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Their Isabella

    Two years later Two whole years had passed and the Blackwell mansion glimmered with laughter, chaos and life like never before. The once-quiet halls were now filled with the soft patter of tiny feet, gleeful giggles, and the gentle coos of a little baby discovering the world.Lucian stood near the floor-to-ceiling windows in the morning light, holding their infant daughter, Isabella, in his arms. Her tiny hands grasped his fingers, her eyes wide with curiosity and wonder, reflecting the same stormy intensity he had seen in Isla since the day they met.“She’s awake,” Isla called from the adjoining room, her voice warm and sweet like a melody. She entered carrying a soft blanket, her hair pulled loosely over her shoulder, smiling at the sight of Lucian gently bouncing their precious daughter in his arms.“She’s gorgeous,” Lucian murmured, pressing a kiss to Isabella’s forehead. “Just like her mother.”Isla walked over, taking Isabella into her arms and feeling the soft weight of the l

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Letters of forgiveness

    The letter arrived on a quiet morning in the Blackwell mansion.The autumn air in New York was crisp, the leaves outside the Blackwell estate turning shades of burnt gold and crimson color. Isla was having coffee by the window when the butler entered, holding a cream-colored envelope sealed with a familiar handwriting. The writing was elegant, sharp, beautiful and Isla knew who's handwriting it was. Liam was also there at the mansion for breakfast when his froze seeing the letter sent by Claire.Claire Blackwell.Lucian, who’d just joined her, froze mid-step. Isla looked up at him, then carefully broke the seal. Inside were four smaller envelopes. One each for Lucian, Isla, Aaric, and Liam.Her heart tightened as she began to read.“To my family and the ones I wronged,”The letter began in Claire’s delicate, and loving script.“There are some sins that age cannot wash away. I lived a life trying to mold others into perfection because I was terrified of my own imperfections. I hurt peo

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Selene & Kian’s Wedding

    After a weekThe sun poured gold over the place, painting everything in warm, soft hues of golden and orange. The Dufort vineyard glowed under strings of fairy lights and golden silk drapes that danced in the evening breeze. It wasn’t just a wedding, it was a reunion of hearts that had seen love and chaos together.Selene had sworn she didn’t want a grand affair.But one glance at the setting, the floral archway laced with baby’s breath, the antique chandeliers, and the endless tables set with golden cutlery and everyone knew she’d lied.“It’s elegant, not grand,” she corrected when Kian teased her earlier.He only grinned. “Sweetheart, there’s a champagne fountain. That’s literally the definition of grand.”Now, standing at the altar in a soft blush gown that shimmered like dawn, Selene looked breathtaking. Her hair fell in loose waves, a beautiful tiara resting delicately above her veil.Kian waited for her at the end of the aisle, dressed in a charcoal suit and a look that made it

  • The Billionaire's Ex-wife is untouchable now   Togetherness

    The Blackwell mansion was all alive. The laughter floated through the corridors. The clinking of cutlery, the soft hum of conversation, the quiet music playing somewhere in the background. All of it felt foreign. Beautifully foreign.Lucian sat on the sofa, a soft throw around his shoulders despite the protest that he didn’t need one. Isla had, of course, ignored him. “You’re still recovering,” she said, fussing as she adjusted the pillow behind him. “And don’t you dare argue with me.”Lucian’s lips twitched. “I was only going to thank you.”She gave him a look. A kind of look that said she didn’t believe a word coming from his mouth. “Sure, Mr. Blackwell. Sit still.”The doorbell rang, and Selene’s voice called from the hallway, “We brought dessert!”Kian followed behind her, holding a bottle of wine in one hand and a mischievous grin in the other. “Also, before you say anything, yes, I checked, this one’s doctor approved.”Lucian arched an eyebrow. “You checked with a doctor?”“No,”

    The night had wrapped the whole villa in silence, the kind that came after a day brimming with laughter and sun and beyond the wide glass doors, the sea breathed steadily against the shore, its voice softer like a cotton now, like a lullaby. Inside, Aaric had fallen asleep almost the instant his he

    The first photographs of the couple appeared the morning after.At first, Isla didn’t notice it. She was halfway through a cappuccino in the Blackwell penthouse kitchen, scrolling absently through her phone while the early shiny light bled through the tall windows. Lucian was still in the shower. T

    The next day, the small American town was alive in a way that felt different from anything Isla had ever known. Narrow streets lined with brick shops, old lamp posts casting warm glows, and children chasing each other with melting ice creams. Today she wasn’t the ice queen in heels or the CEO with
