The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead Chapter 37
Adrian’s POVAfter driving aimlessly for hours, I eventually ended up at a bar. It was the only thing I could do before I ended up going to Briar’s house to embarrass myself. “What would you like to have sir?” The bartender asked. “Gin and tonic. Keep the gin heavy.” I replied. “You got it.” My drink was ready in no time. To shut off my distorted feeling, I downed the glass in one go and asked for another. It sizzled down my throat and seemed to do a good job at dissolving the tension I felt. “Hello, pretty lady. What do you want me to get you?” The bartender inquired in a friendly tone. “Red wine please.” The customer replied. Even in my daze, there is no way I wouldn’t know whose voice that is. I turned my head and it was really her. I chugged down half of my drink, swallowing with difficulty. It is my fourth glass. “What are the odds? Did you fight with hubby?” I couldn’t resist the spite in my voice. “Adrian?” Briar called out—a flash of shock on her face before it return

Adrian’s POV“This is unbelievable!” Isadora blurted dramatically when we got into the car. “It's always the innocent-looking ones. Who would have thought Briar had such a vile attitude? A child as grown as that with her team leader? I am stunned.” She cackled, covering up her face. My grip tightened around the steering wheel as I focused on the road.“Why aren’t you saying anything, Adrian?” she asked, pausing. “Wait a minute…you knew about it? How?” “What do you think about the exhibition ground for the aquarium?” I asked, shifting the topic to the exact reason why we were at the aquarium earlier. Isadora sucked her teeth, folding her arms. “Well, this is not an official work day so I am not obliged to answer that question. What I need to know is why you said nothing about Briar getting involved with another man. Shouldn’t you sue her, really? She made a fool of you and pretended to be dead. Are we just going to turn a blind eye to it?”I took in a sharp breath, clenching my jaw

Briar’s POV“Mummy, see that octopus!” Knox squealed in excitement, pressing his finger against the tunnel tank that harbored the sea folks. I gasped at the enormous sight of the octopus. Many of the animals were big and weird. The sharks and sea turtles had me staring in disbelief. I have never been to an aquarium. This is the first time for me and me. When we walked in, I saw many parents with their young children, all excited and running around. I felt guilty for not taking Knox to a space like this earlier. But he made me realize it was in fact a good decision to have waited until this moment. He was practically going mad. Making Liam chase him. None of our warnings was heard. It appears the space makes children act out due to excitement. I would have screamed in frustration if it were just the two of us and I had to run after him every time he saw something mindblowing. I might sound like a terrible mother, but I genuinely do not like to lie to myself. Liam picked him off the f

Briar’s POV“Was it just me or did Isadora seem to be trying to put down your work?” Liam noted, taking a long sip of his water.I tapped my finger gently on the table, the food in my mouth going watery as I had been chewing for a long time. “I am more surprised that Adrian didn’t seem put off and has signed off on the project,” I admitted. As always Isadora couldn’t hide her claws. For every meeting we had regarding project approval, she shut down my opinions and listened to others while ignoring the actual brains behind the task. Since I knew she was doing it out of spite, I didn’t let myself be bothered. Aside from Liam, Adrian was always waving her off, which is quite bothersome. Rissa smacked her lips. “Is he supposed to have a problem with it? You did a good job. It is only right that you get commended for it.”“You don’t know him as I do.” I sniffed, sitting up. “he doesn’t act without a reason. I have a feeling that this might not turn out well.” “You have been hammering on

Adrian’s POVProfessionalism my foot! Who the hell was I fooling? To think I spent the entire night restlessly thinking about my decision to tune Briar’s presence out of my mind. Only to arrive at the company to see her and Liam acting all cheeky with each other. Her smile was wide brightening up her face like that of someone in love. It’s almost ridiculous. What could he have said to require such a response from her? How funny can he be? Cursing under my breath, I stomped towards the elevator trying hard to control my breathing. “Oh, good morning, Mr Sterling. I didn’t see you there.” Liam said just as the elevator door opened. With his hand on Briar’s small back to guide her in. “Good morning sir.” Briar mouthed, avoiding my eyes. I tugged at my ear in disbelief. Right in my company these two are playing in my face. Who the hell do they think they are?“Aren’t you getting in, sir?” Liam asked. I raised my brow slightly with both hands in my pockets before stepping into the ele
The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead Chapter 32
Adrian’s POVBriar’s words earlier today kept replaying in my head. It weighs me down like a brick. Probably because everything she said was true. I never really gave our relationship a chance and now it’s hard to turn back the hands of time. Her eyes are cold and unfamiliar. No matter how much I try to find the girl I once knew, it’s just impossible. “You aren’t touching your food.” Mum’s voice pulled me out of my reverie. I stared down at the filled plate in front of me before raising my head slowly. “What?” “He seems to have a lot on his mind. Remember this is my welcome dinner.” Isadora noted, smiling softly. I felt lost for a moment before everything clicked in my head. I groaned inwardly. I was just about to leave the office when my mother suddenly arrived with Isadora on her arm, asking that we eat dinner together to celebrate Isadora’s return. With the day I have had all I want to do is go back to the house and lock myself in. But I can’t have such a chance with my mother

Briar’s POV“This is the moodboard compilation from the last meeting. You need to sign it off.” I said, placing the file on the table. Liam didn't look up from the computer screen he had his eyes glued to. “Hmm.” Came his disinterested response. I shifted from one foot to the other. “Sir, you are
The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead Chapter 25
Briar’s POVI let out a frustrated groan, kicking my feet against the floor. What have I done? I should have controlled my anger. I just let it get the best of me and now I have to learn the hard way. I grabbed my hair tightly, wishing I could pull it out. “Will you stop that already!” Rissa rebuk
The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead Chapter 31
Briar’s POVMy eyes lingered on the building as I tightened my grip around the steering wheel. I have been sitting out here for ten minutes, contemplating whether I should head in. My phone rang loudly, jolting me out of my thoughts. I placed a hand on my chest cursing under my breath. “You almost
The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead Chapter 30
Briar’s POVI had to get some air. My brawl with Adrian this morning, Isadora’s unnecessary confrontation coupled with Liam’s cold silence, I need a moment to scream and get myself together. It feels unfair to be faced with this situation. And I am trying my best to stay sane. I dragged my feet to
