Semua Bab The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife : Bab 111 - Bab 120

“Were you not able to talk to him?” Roseanne asked him. She saw that Nicholas had been struggling to talk to Luke for a few days. It seemed that the man was a hard nut to crack.Nicholas shared his thoughts, “It is as if he is using this method to piss me off.”Whenever he would try to confront Luke, the man would do something that would piss him off. This way, Nicholas would let him go every time. Roseanne commented, “And he is getting successful too.”Nicholas was very stressed and annoyed about the whole situation. Of course, Luke managed to piss him off. He added, “Rose, there must be a way to talk to him. He is not even ready to look at me.”Roseanne asked him, “Did you try to find out why is it so?”Nicholas said, “If he will try to conversate with me, maybe I will.”Roseanne hummed. “From your talks, all I can deduce is that he is not scared of you, Nicholas. It meant he didn't fear losing anything. The threat won't work on him. You will have to knock on the door of his heart

“You don't like him that much, do you?” Luke asked Roseanne with an amusing glint in his eyes. “Why?” Nicholas asked. “Are you thinking of forming a Nicholas hate club?”Luke and Roseanne ignored Nicholas's' comment graciously. Luke said, “Why did you want to meet me?”“How did you agree to meet me?” Nicholas asked instead. “Does it matter?” Luke asked. “Please say whatever you have to say.”Nicholas stared at Roseanne, who stood up to say, “I will see you out.”Luke watched Roseanne leave the room. After a few minutes, Nicholas exited the house while Roseanne waited, leaning against the car. He looked at his driver and said, “Go back.”Roseanne blinked her eyes and asked, “Where will you go?”Nicholas answered, “I thought I would share the ride with you. Shouldn't we conserve fuel by joining the same ride?”Roseanne rolled her eyes. Did it make any sense? It didn't. However, she didn't burst his bubble and asked, “How come you came so early? What did you even talk to him?”“Do you

The wedding preparations started immediately after the engagement. Almost everyone was trying to help the newly engaged couple with preparation. Leon and Coco were very excited about the wedding as it was the first wedding they would see. Usually, wedding venues wouldn't allow children their age, but Emery wanted her niece and nephew there for her special day. Today, Emery was shopping for her wedding dress with Ellora and Roseanne. She was trying out different dresses before deciding on the final one. Ellora had to convince Emery to let her buy the wedding dress as her daughter didn't wish to take any financial help from her family. However, being a mother, she always wanted to be a part of her daughter's happy day, and how could she let Emery have a compromised wedding dress when she could have the world at her feet? In the end, Emery agreed. When Emery decided on the dress, Roseanne and Ellora were looking for dresses for themselves for the wedding party. Roseanne liked a turquoi

“What's wrong with our stepmother? Why is she talking to that woman? Where does her loyalty lie?” Beatrice whispered. Just because they were following Emery and Ellora didn't mean their attention was not on Roseanne. In reality, it was Roseanne who had taken all of their attention. All they could focus on the entire building was her. They didn't know if it was jealousy or curiosity; they were watching her entire moves. With every movement, they would wonder why Nicholas chose her over Sabrina, who was more elegant, beautiful and influential. If it was Beauty that Nicholas was after, Sabrina possessed more of it. Even a blind could see the latter's worth, but why did Nicholas throw her far and choose someone like Roseanne? It was not that Roseanne was not beautiful; she was. She could give a competition to Mrs Taylor, but it was not beauty that was needed to survive in their circle. As if Nicholas’ subject was challenging to digest for the two of them, they saw their stepmother givi

The entire Hart family went to the party organised by Mrs Taylor. The party was lavish, with guests from the elitist section of the country. Everything looked so grand. Mr Taylor and Mrs Taylor were using this party to gain as many allies as possible since the elections were close, and he needed the support of more and more people. Since there were many important people present, everyone was trying to make conversation with people in case the connection come helpful them further. However, Roseanne was standing in the middle of the hall, quiet. Nicholas could sense her reservation. She had not been talking much since the time they left home. Seeing her like this made him uncomfortable, too. Nicholas told her, “If you don't want to be here, we can return.”To him, this party has no use. If she said she wanted to return, he would leave instantly with her and the kids. She shook her head, “No.” To be honest, she was scared about him. She wanted to protect him from any harm that was co
