The Divorce That Made Me A Billionaire Chapter 54
VICTORIAIsabella didn’t waste time.She came straight to my office the next morning, hair pulled into a messy knot, sunglasses still on even though we were indoors. That alone told me how bad it was. Isabella never hid behind accessories unless she was tired or angry. Sometimes both.She shut the door behind her and leaned against it for a second, like she needed to gather herself. Then she walked in slowly, looking focused.“Before you say anything,” she said, pointing a finger at me, “promise me you won’t flip a table.”I looked up from my laptop and blinked once. “I don’t flip tables anymore.”She waited.“I replace them,” I added.She groaned. “That’s not comforting.”I gestured to the chair across from me. “Sit. Breathe. Talk.”She didn’t sit. Instead, she crossed the room and dropped her iPad on my desk with a soft thud. The screen lit up, filled with charts, messages, and file access logs.“There’s a leak,” she said. “Inside your company.”I felt something inside me shift, but

ISABELLA I didn’t sleep that night.I tried. I really did. I lay in bed with my laptop closed, staring at the ceiling, telling myself I was being dramatic. That what happened at the preview was just another rich-people stunt. Smoke, mirrors, and ego.But my gut wouldn’t shut up.It kept twisting like it knew something my brain didn’t want to face yet. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her. The duplicate. The way she stood. The way she smiled just a second too late. The way she moved like she was following invisible marks on the floor.That wasn’t normal.By sunrise, I gave up pretending. I rolled out of bed, pulled on a hoodie, and drove straight to my office. The city was still half asleep, so the lights were dull, and the streets were quiet. I liked it that way. Less noise, more peace.I made coffee that tasted too bitter and sat down in my chair, rubbing my temples. My head already hurt, but I ignored it. If I waited until I felt ready, I’d never start.I tied my hair up, cracked

VICTORIAThe building smelled like money and nerves.That was how I always knew an event was working. The place had clean floors and soft lights. Champagne was flowing like water, and there was a room full of people pretending they weren’t desperate to be impressed. The private preview was invite-only, with phones locked away at the door, and security everywhere. There was no press, so there would be no leaks. Just power watching power.Exactly how I liked it.I stood near the center of the room, calm, hands relaxed, wearing a black silk dress that moved when I moved. It wasn’t flashy or soft, but it was bold enough to make people look twice. My designs were displayed behind me on raised platforms, models standing still like living statues. Every piece told the same story: skill, control, and precision. Clark stood a few steps behind me, close enough that I could feel him without turning around. He wore a dark suit with no tie, sleeves rolled just enough to show the strength in his

TRENTI didn’t plan to meet her.That was the first lie I told myself that night, and it actually sounded believable in my head for a moment.But the truth sat heavily in my chest while my car idled under the bridge, engine low, lights off, rain tapping against the roof.I should have driven away. I knew that. I really did. Every part of me knew this was a bad idea. Margaret Carter never did anything without a reason, and her reasons usually ruined people.Still, I stayed.The bridge above me groaned as a truck passed. Water dripped from the concrete in slow drops, each one hitting the ground with a soft splash. It felt like a countdown, like once it reached zero, something would happen.I checked my phone again, even though I already knew what I’d see.Unknown Number: You have to be there. Don’t disappoint me again.My jaw tightened. I shoved the phone into my pocket and leaned back in the seat, staring at the dark road ahead.Disappointing Margaret had consequences. I had learned th

VICTORIAThe secure location we went to smelled like disinfectant and burnt coffee. It was the kind of smell that was clean, but felt like it was hiding something rotten underneath. I hated it the moment I stepped in.Diana sat on the edge of the couch, wrapped in a thick gray blanket. Her knees were pulled to her chest. Her hands shook so badly that the fabric rustled every few seconds. Mascara streaks ran down her cheeks in uneven lines, and her lips kept trembling like she was cold, even though the room was very warm.She looked small. She had never looked small before.Clark stood near the window with his back half turned to the room. His arms were crossed tightly over his chest, and his shoulders were tense too. He kept staring out at the city lights. Elio hovered near the kitchen island with his laptop open, pretending to type while listening to every word. The guards stayed outside the door.I remained standing.I didn’t sit because sitting felt like sympathy, and Diana had alr

CLARKThe water didn’t rush in all at once. It crept in bit by bit.That was the worst part.It slid across the concrete floor slowly. The smell hit me first as the odor of old metal and river rot invaded my nostrils and burned the back of my throat.My boots were soaked within seconds.“Move,” I barked at the guards. “Now.”They reacted quickly, spreading out and checking the hallways while the alarm kept screaming overhead. The red lights flashed so hard that they made everything feel unreal, and it felt like we were inside a bad dream that refused to end.Victoria stood near Diana, as still as stone.She wasn’t panicking. She wasn’t rushing. She wasn’t even looking at the water climbing around her heels. Her face stayed calm and focused, almost distant.And that scared me even more than the flooding.I grabbed Diana before the water rose any higher. She cried out when I lifted her, clutching my jacket like she was afraid I’d drop her back into hell. Her body shook hard against mine
