All Chapters of My Secret Billionaire Ex-wife: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

REGIS’ POVAfter Neal's messages, I immediately called Aria to check on her whereabouts, but her phone went unanswered. It's incredibly unusual for Aria not to respond to our calls.I can't shake the worry that something might be wrong. What if Aria went to Adam? He's been trying his hardest to reconcile with her. I pray Aria isn't hurt or in danger. If anything has happened to her this time, I won't hesitate to take action against whoever is responsible.I'm anxiously waiting for Neal's text to shed some light on the situation when I receive a call from Adam. As soon as I pick up, Adam starts bombarding me with questions. He sounds extremely worried, and his voice trembles slightly. However, he immediately asks about Tanya. This strikes me as odd.“Uncle… Has Tanya contacted you?”“Contacted me? Why would she contact me?”Adam gets straight to the point and tells me that Aria is missing, suspecting Tanya's involvement in her kidnapping. I'm left wondering why Tanya would do such a th

REGIS’ POVAs soon as I brief Neal on the next steps and precautionary measures we need to take to ensure Aria's safety, I rush out of my house towards the location I've been instructed to go. I can’t stop thinking about Adam’s findings about Tanya. It's baffling to witness such immaturity, driven by an inability to accept rejection. Dealing with someone so unpredictable and irrational is truly exasperating.What a psycho!I just hope she's not harming Aria. If I find out Aria's been hurt, I swear, I won't hold back.Why can't we just breathe and live peacefully? Another Sophia has to appear and complicate everything!As I speed towards the location, my phone rings—it's Adam. I recall all the times he's risked his life for Aria, getting wounded in the process. I can't risk putting him in danger by answering the call now. Adam is reckless and might mess up the entire operation with his impulsive actions, and I can't afford to put Aria's life at risk. I need to see the situation for myse

ARIA’S POVAs soon as I hear Regis choose Tanya over me, the words echo in my mind, a wave of disbelief and betrayal washing over me. Before I can even begin to process the gravity of his decision, the rope holding me off the cliff is suddenly cut.I feel a sharp jolt as the tension releases, and I plummet towards the ocean below, my heart pounding in my chest. The wind rushes past me, and all I can think about is the cold, unforgiving water waiting below.How can Regis choose to harm me? How can he choose Tanya to live and me to die? The questions swirl in my mind, intensifying my fear and confusion. I trusted him, believed he would save me. How could he betray me like this?I hurtle through the air, the wind whipping around me, a mixture of fear, disbelief, and desperation consuming my thoughts. The sensation of free-falling into the unknown abyss below fills me with a gut-wrenching dread, every second stretching out into an eternity as I brace for the impact that awaits in abyss.A

ARIA’S POVJust then, I hear Adam’s voice.“I’m fine, Aria… Thanks for asking about me.”I blush, unsure of why, feeling the weight of everyone's eyes on me. Neal remains silent, his expression unreadable, though it seems he isn't pleased either with Adam’s presence or maybe because of some other issue.If Adam hadn’t reached me in time, I might have ended up in the ICU. However, when I opened my eyes and saw him performing artificial respiration, I felt a strange mix of emotions.We hadn’t been this close in a very long time. As he worked to save my life, I couldn’t help but wonder if he felt a certain satisfaction in that moment, a rekindling of something from our past. The intimacy of the situation, despite its urgency, brought back a flood of memories and complicated feelings.At that same time, Regis barges in, looking panicked.“Aria! Oh, thank God you’re alright. I got so scared!”Without giving me a chance to speak, Regis rushes to explain himself. His words tumble out in a mi

ARIA’S POVI sigh, relieved that this episode is finally over. However, I have another issue now.“Neal, I don’t want to stay here. Can you take me home?”I ask, my voice weary but determined. Since I am alright now, there’s no use for me to sleep in the hospital when I can enjoy the comfort of my home and be with my family. The sterile environment of the hospital only reminds me of the ordeal I've been through, and I long for the warmth and familiarity of home.“I’ll make the arrangements right away.”“Thanks.”Neal kisses me on the forehead and hugs me tightly, his relief palpable, as he whispers, his voice filled with emotion."I'm so glad you're safe and sound."As we prepare to leave, I feel a sense of calm wash over me, ready to go home and leave this harrowing experience behind.As we exit the hospital and settle into the car, I find it strange that neither Adam nor Regis are around. Their absence feels oddly conspicuous, given the intensity of the events that just unfolded. A
