ADRIAN POV

The restaurant was expensive.

White tablecloths. Crystal glasses. Candles on every table. The kind of place where people spoke in low voices and calm music plays in the background.

Adrian sat across from Vanessa, watching her read the menu.

She looked good tonight. Really good.

Her hair was styled in loose waves. Her makeup was perfect. She wore a deep blue dress that hugged her body in all the right places. The kind of dress that made men turn their heads when she walked past.

She’d smiled when he picked her up. Kissed his cheek. Told him he looked handsome.

Everything felt easy with her. Simple.

Not like Kira. With Kira, everything had been complicated. Heavy. Full of expectations he never knew how to meet.

But Vanessa? Vanessa was light.

She set down her menu and smiled at him. “This place is beautiful. How did you find it?”

“A client recommended it.”

“Good taste.”

The waiter appeared. “Good evening. Can I start you off with drinks?”

“Red wine,” Vanessa said

Who else loves the way Vanessa is feeding into Adrian’s delusions😂😂

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    The Drive

    ADRIAN POVAdrian sat in his office, staring at the divorce papers on his desk.Two months.He’d been stalling for two months.His lawyer had called three times this week alone. “Mr. Westbrook, we need to finalize this. Mrs. Ashford’s legal team is getting impatient.”Adrian had made excuses every time. Busy schedule. Important meetings. Travel plans.All lies.The truth was simpler. He didn’t want to sign.Signing meant it was over. Really over and there was no going back.But it was already over, wasn’t it?Kira had made that clear two months ago when she’d walked out of her office without looking back. When she’d dismissed him like he was nothing.Adrian picked up the papers and flipped through them.Joint custody. Primary residence with Kira. Visitation rights for him. No alimony. Clean split of assets.It was fair. Reasonable. Everything his lawyer said he should

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Two Months Later

    Kira pov“Miss Ashford, the marble samples just arrived.”Kira looked up from her laptop. Alyssa stood in the doorway of the restaurant space, holding a tablet.“Already? I thought they weren’t coming until next week.”“The supplier moved up the timeline. They’re in the main dining area now.”Kira closed her laptop and stood. “Let’s go look.”They walked from the back office through the kitchen. The space had transformed over the past two months. What used to be empty concrete floors and exposed brick was now starting to look like an actual restaurant.The kitchen was almost complete. Stainless steel counters lined the walls. Industrial stoves sat waiting to be connected. Storage units were installed and ready.In the main dining area, three men stood around a table covered in marble samples.Kira walked over and looked at them. White marble. Black marble. Gray marble with gold veins running through it.She picked up the gray one and held it up to the light.“This one.”“For the bar t

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    The Rejection

    ADRIAN POVAdrian was still standing.He hadn’t moved since Kira walked in. His lips were parted slightly. Like he’d forgotten how to close his mouth.She was beautiful.Wait. Her thighs? When did Kira thighs get thick like that? Smooth. The dress barely covered them.And her chest. Her boobs looked bigger. Fuller. Were they always like that? They were glowing. She’d oiled them. She definitely oiled them.Kira looked beautiful. More than beautiful. She was sexy.Adrian tried to remember the last time they’d had sex.Five years ago. Maybe longer. When the twins were barely four. He’d come home late from a business trip. She was in bed already and he’d woken her up. It was quick, nothing serious. Easily forgettable.How had he not noticed her body when she was living in his house?If she’d looked like this then, they would’ve had sex four times a day. Minimum.He’d give anything to touch her right now. To put his hands on her waist. Pull her close. Feel her skin.“Mr. Westbrook, are you

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    The Wait

    ADRIAN POV“Where is she?”The man behind the desk looked up. Mid-forties. Balding. Nervous eyes.“I’m sorry, sir. Who are you looking for?”“Kira. Where is she?”The man’s expression changed. He kind of recognized Adrian, but still wanted to ask just to be sure. “And you are?”“I’m her husband.”“Ex-husband the man said under his breath.”Adrian stopped. “Excuse me?”The man cleared his throat. “I said nothing, sir. How can I help you?”Adrian stepped closer to the desk. “I need to see Kira. Now.”“Miss Ashford isn’t in the hotel today. She hasn’t come in yet.”“Then call her.”“I’m sorry, sir, but I can’t disturb Miss Ashford unless she’s made an appointment or specifically asked me to contact her.”Adrian’s hands flattened on the desk. “It’s Mrs. Not Miss.”The man blinked. “I’m sorry?”“You called her Miss. It’s Mrs. Westbrook.”“Actually, sir, Miss Ashford prefers to be addressed by her maiden name.”Adrian’s jaw clenched. “I don’t care what she prefers. Give me her number. I’ll

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Let’s Stress Him

    KIRA POVKira ended the call and stood outside the restaurant space for a moment.Adrian was at the hotel. Demanding to see her.She could go straight there. Deal with whatever tantrum he was throwing. Get it over with.But she wasn’t going to do that.She walked back to her Maybach and got in.Marcus appeared at the passenger window. “You sure you don’t want backup?”“I’m sure.”“Kira…..”“Stop Marcus, I can handle Adrian. I’m not a child, I’ve been handling him for years.”Marcus didn’t look convinced, but he stepped back.Kira started the engine and pulled away from the enterance.She didn’t head toward the hotel. Instead, she turned in the opposite direction.Toward home.Whatever Adrian had to say could wait. She wasn’t showing up in the jeans and sweater she’d been wearing since this morning. She wasn’t going to face him looking tired and unprepare

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    The Space

    KIRA POV“You look exhausted.”Kira looked up from her laptop. Marcus stood in the doorway of her office at the estate, holding two cups of coffee.“I’m fine.”“You’ve been saying that for three days straight.” He walked in and set one cup on her desk. “When’s the last time you slept more than four hours?”“Last night.”“Liar.”Kira smiled slightly and picked up the coffee. “Thank you.”Marcus sat in the chair across from her. “How’s the hotel situation?”“Nightmare. The furniture replacement is taking longer than expected. Half the suppliers can’t deliver on time. The other half are price gouging because they know we’re desperate.”“Did you fire the procurement guy?”“David Chen? Yes. Escorted out by security. He screamed at me on his way out.”“Good riddance.”Kira took a sip of coffee. “I also found out he wasn’t the only one cutting corners. Three other depar
