The Billionaire's ex wife Chapter 47: Dead End
Margaret's pov Caroline startled so badly she lost her balance. She fell hard to the floor, her prosthetic leg twisting awkwardly beneath her. Pain shot through her body as she hit the ground.Ethan squatted beside her, pretending for a second like he wanted to help. Then he grabbed her prosthetic leg, yanked it off roughly, and threw it across the ward. It clattered loudly against the wall.“You haven’t learnt your lesson, have you?” he asked, his voice low and hoarse. “Do you really think you can run away from me? From this life? Do you?”Caroline lay on the cold floor, shivering with fear. Her body trembled uncontrollably. She was terrified he would hit her again. But Ethan just stood up slowly, looking down at her like she was nothing.“Caroline, you should have learned by now,” he said calmly. “Every time you act stupid, there will be a price to pay. Understood?”Caroline nodded quickly, keeping her head down. Tears rolled silently down her swollen cheeks.“Why are you here?” sh
The Billionaire's ex wife Chapter 46: Nowhere to run
Margaret’s POVDoctor Sharma looked at the guard with irritation. “Should I get the nurse to take her to the hospital so I can do my work properly, or am I supposed to do whatever I want here?”“I’ll ask Ethan first,” the guard replied. “He said you should check her leg. I don’t know if he wants it fixed.”Caroline’s eyes widened in horror. “What?! Are you serious? Cutting off my leg? Using an iron leg? Please, Doctor, I cannot bear that kind of pain. Isn’t there anything else you can do?”Doctor Sharma shook her head. “There is nothing else. If I leave the damaged leg, it will become completely useless and eventually infect the right leg too. Then you will lose both. It’s better to remove the left one now.”“I cannot do this,” Caroline cried bitterly, tears streaming down her face. “I cannot live with a prosthetic leg. Please…”“There is a first time for everything,” Doctor Sharma said coldly, standing up and turning her back. The smell of Caroline’s burned flesh was making her sick.
The Billionaire's ex wife Chapter 45: Prosthetics
Margaret’s POVCaroline screamed until her voice grew hoarse. The pain was beyond anything she had ever felt. Her legs burned as if they were on fire. The acid kept eating deeper into her flesh, sizzling and melting her skin. She thrashed wildly on the floor, but Ethan’s men held her down without mercy.Ethan didn’t stop until the bottle was completely empty. He poured every last drop onto her thighs and calves.“I hope this teaches you a lesson,” he said coldly, looking down at her with satisfaction. “You have no power. You have no rights. You will do as I say and play by my rules. If you ever challenge me again, I will make sure to draw your final breath in a way far worse than being stabbed repeatedly.”He smiled, clearly pleased with the damage he had caused.Caroline lay on the floor, sobbing silently. Her tears mixed with the blood on her face. The burned skin on her legs stuck horribly to the cold tiles. It looked raw, disgusting, and smelled of melted flesh. She couldn’t move.
The Billionaire's ex wife Chapter 44: Acid and Defiance
Margaret’s POV“I don’t know what to do, Caroline,” Bella sobbed uncontrollably over the phone. “He still remembers when our parents were alive… but nothing recent. He doesn’t even remember you. It feels like I’ve lost my brother.”Caroline stood frozen, her breath caught in her throat. The words hit her like a heavy blow. She was too shocked to speak at first. All she could hear was Bella’s raw, broken crying on the other end. After a long pause, she finally found her voice.“Hold on tight, Bella,” she said softly, trying to sound stronger than she felt. “I’ll be there in an hour.”She ended the call and didn’t waste another second. Caroline walked straight through the front gate. Ethan watched her leave in silence, his expression cold and calculating. He didn’t stop her. Instead, he gave a small nod to two of his men, signaling them to follow her and find out exactly where she was going.Exactly one hour later, Caroline arrived at the hospital. Bella was waiting anxiously at the rec
The Billionaire's ex wife Chapter 43: Who is Caroline?
Margaret’s POVBella froze, staring at her brother in complete shock. Williams had just asked who Caroline was, and the confusion in his voice sounded too real.“Ah, I see what you’re doing,” Bella said with a small laugh, trying to play along. “You’re pulling my legs again. You’re always playful like this. She came earlier and she was very worried about you. I haven’t even called her back yet to tell her you’re awake and doing better.” Williams looked at her with genuine confusion. “Bella, I don’t know who you’re talking about. Why is she worried about me when I don’t even know her?”Bella’s smile faded. He sounded serious. Too serious.“Oh brother, stop this joke please,” she said, still trying to sound jovial. “If you want to tease me, you can use anything else. But ‘who is Caroline?’ is not going to work on me.”“Bella, for the last time, I’m telling you sincerely, I don’t know who this Caroline is,” Williams replied, his voice calm but firm. “And if she’s one of those girls alw

Margaret’s POVEthan flung the door open with force. The handle banged against the wall. He stepped inside Caroline’s room and scanned every corner, empty bed, closed curtains, no sign of her. No shoes by the door, no purse on the chair. Nothing. Suspicion flared in his eyes, then anger. His jaw tightened. He was convinced she had slipped out again to see that fool Williams. And he wasn’t wrong.He pulled his phone from his pocket, thumb already hovering over a contact, ready to make the call that would track her down or worse.Then the bathroom door creaked open.Caroline stepped out, hair slightly damp, wearing a fresh dress. She froze when she saw him.Ethan’s gaze raked over her, checking for sweat, for dirt, for any trace she had been outside. He looked around the room once more, then fixed his eyes on her.“What are you doing here?” Caroline asked, voice steady but her pulse racing.Ethan tilted his head. “The last I checked, and I’m still right, this is my house.” His tone was
