VICTORIA

The hospital smelled like fear.

That was the only way I could describe it.

It had white walls. I heard the soft sound of shoes on the tile and quiet voices trying not to sound worried. Clark stood beside me, phone in hand, speaking in low tones to people who owed him favors.

Daniel was gone. He wasn’t hiding. He was just gone.

His accounts were empty. His offices had been cleared and his staff dismissed without notice. His cars were missing. Even his assistant had no idea where he was.

  • The Divorce That Made Me A Billionaire    Chapter 119

    VICTORIAThe moment our lips met, everything else dropped away.The kiss wasn’t soft or careful or anything I could pretend was a mistake. It felt direct, like something that had been waiting for too long and finally broke through. I didn’t think, and that was the problem.Because I always thought.This time, I didn’t.The tension that had been sitting between us all night had turned into something real. It wasn’t gentle, it wasn’t slow, and it didn’t give me space to step back. It pulled me in instead.And I let it.That was my second mistake.His reaction came half a second later. There was a pause, just small enough for me to notice it. That small moment where he could have pulled away.He didn’t.Then just like that, the hesitation disappeared like it had never been there. His hand moved to my arm, firm but not rough, steady in a way that made everything feel more certain.What scared me. wasn’t the kiss or the closeness of our bodies. It was him. Because it meant he wasn’t holdin

    VICTORIAThe space between us disappeared too easily. That was the problem, and I knew it the second it happened. It had always been like this with him, simple in the worst way.Everything else around us felt complicated, messy, and out of control. The case, the lies, the past that kept showing up at the worst time. But this part, this thing between us, stayed easy.It felt too easy, and I didn’t like that. Because easy meant dangerous. It meant I wasn’t thinking. And right now, I needed to think.His hand brushed mine first, lightly. It wasn’t an accident, and we both knew it. It was just enough to feel, just enough to notice.I didn’t pull away. I should have. I knew I should have, but I didn’t.The contact stayed there for a second longer than it needed to. My fingers didn’t move or react, and it felt like they were waiting for my brain to catch up. It didn’t. Instead, I let it stay.That was my first mistake.“Tell me everything,” I said quietly.My voice came out softer than I ex

    VICTORIAThe moment the door closed behind us, the silence changed.It felt like everything we had just said outside had followed us in and settled into the walls.I stood there for a second, my hand still resting on the door handle, my mind trying to reset. The space looked the same. The lights were soft, the furniture was exactly where it had always been, and the city still stretched out through the glass.Nothing had moved, but something had shifted, and I could feel it.Clark walked past me like he had done it a hundred times before. He didn’t pause or hesitate. He just moved through the space as if he belonged there and nothing had changed.That annoyed me more than I wanted to admit.I let out a slow breath and pushed myself away from the door, walking deeper into the penthouse. I moved toward the desk and picked up my tablet, forcing my attention onto the screen. I had messages, reports, and legal updates waiting.All of it was important. This was what mattered.Not him. Not

    VICTORIAThe elevator ride down felt longer than it should have.No one spoke after we left the penthouse. Not me, not Clark, not even Daniel. The woman stayed behind, and somehow that made everything feel heavier, like we had walked out with pieces of something unfinished.I kept my eyes forward the whole time. I didn’t trust myself to look at Clark yet because if I did, I wasn’t sure what I would see. Or worse, what I would feel.We stepped out into the night, and the air hit me immediately. It was cool and sharp. It helped, but not enough.Clark walked beside me, close but not touching. I could feel his presence without looking. It sat there, steadily, like he was waiting for something.I didn’t give it to him.The car door opened, and I got in without a word. He followed right after, sitting beside me like it was normal and nothing had changed.But everything had.The driver pulled away smoothly, and the city lights started moving past the window. I watched them without really see

    VICTORIABut I didn’t end up stepping back.That was the first thing I noticed about myself in that moment. I stayed right there, close enough to feel the heat from his body, close enough to see every small shift in his expression.Clark didn’t move either.We just stood there, facing each other, with too many things sitting between us that neither of us wanted to say out loud.The room felt smaller. Tighter too. Like the walls had moved in just to watch what would happen next.“You knew what it could become,” I said again, softer this time.It wasn’t because I wasn’t sure. It was because I wanted to hear how he would say it again.His jaw tightened just slightly before he answered. “I knew what it was,” he repeated.That answer sat there for a second. Then I let out a small breath. “That’s not the same thing.”He didn’t reply immediately.And that silence… it did something to me. Because Clark wasn’t the kind of man who stayed quiet unless he was choosing to.And right now, he was c

    VICTORIA I didn’t take my eyes off him after I asked the question.The room felt quiet, but not peaceful. It was the kind of silence that pressed in on you, like it was waiting for something to break. Clark stood a few steps away, his face calm, but I knew him well enough now to see the tension underneath.It was in the way his shoulders held still. They were too still.He didn’t answer immediately. That told me more than anything else.I crossed my arms slowly, not to protect myself, but to keep control. “It’s a simple question,” I said. My voice stayed even. “Did you ever think about using it on me?”Clark let out a small breath, like he had been holding it in.“No,” he said.The answer came fast. Too fast.I tilted my head slightly, watching him. “That’s not true.”His jaw tightened just a little. “It is.”I took a step closer. “You didn’t even think about it?” I asked. “Not once?”He didn’t move.“I thought about a lot of things back then,” he said carefully. “That doesn’t mean I

    VICTORIAI didn’t cancel the summit.Everyone expected me to. Isabella hinted at it three times without saying the words. Clark waited for me to say it myself. Even the board sent some messages.I listened to all of it with my hands folded on the table and my face calm. Then I said no.The Global F

    CLARK I knew something had shifted the moment I woke up and didn’t reach for my phone to check if Victoria had texted. That had never happened before. I lay there on my couch, staring at the ceiling of my penthouse while the city hummed outside my windows. Cars passed. A siren wailed far away.

    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 l

    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-
