Semua Bab Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire: Bab 471 - Bab 480

Cassandra’s POV “So other than some proofs on some of the pics, we’re good to go for the launch?” “You bet,” Jordyn replied. I was at my store on a Zoom call with Jordyn. We were finalizing the details for the upcoming launch. A swirl of excitement ran through me. I had my ten original dresses all set to go for the launch, with many more on the way. Jordyn had done a fantastic job of marketing Petals in Bloom as a high-end designer brand. I was actually amazed with his branding and social media campaign. I’d hired five staff members, all of them carefully curated, and all of whom could speak English, although my new hire spoke with such a heavy accent I could barely understand. She was a whiz though with a sewing machine, so it was worth the hassle of asking her to repeat things from time to time. “I don’t want to pry,” Jordyn said, his tone shifting. “But Cass, is everything okay out there in Paris?” His qu

Cassandra’s POV “Cassandra!” Blaire’s voice squeaked as she ran down the front steps of the palace, two at a time. “You’ve been hiding from us. Sebastian had been keeping you all to himself, and that simply isn’t fair. Come here. Let me look at you. Yes. You’re a vision still. A puckering tulip on a hot desert day.” Blaire held me at arms’ length, her eyes roaming up and down my body before embracing me. “Hello, mother,” Sebastian said when the hug was over. “Hello, my son,” she said. “You’ve been holed up in the city for far too long. I don’t blame you though.” She winked at him. “I’d be holed up in the city too for a beauty like that.” She was referring to me. Sebastian had been staying at his family’s villa in Paris for the past few weeks. He was doing it to be close to me, since the palace was too far to travel back and forth daily. I hadn’t seen the Paris villa yet, but I could only imagine it was just as decadent as the pal

Cassandra’s POV We walked out of the maze and I could barely see straight. It had been everything I knew it would be. Red hot skin and hungry kisses. It had happened fast, so fast, because we couldn’t hold back any longer. He’d taken me, right there, on the wall of the hedge maze. It had felt… Fucking unbelievable. Afterwards, he had kissed me deeply and rested his head on my shoulder. I’d stoked his hair while we both regained our breath. “You are mine now,” he said, taking a step back. “You are mine.” I nodded. I’d finally given into him and it had been everything I’d hoped it would be. He was forceful and commanding, and I’d never had someone take charge quite like that before. I had felt so freeing, so uninhibited. I was putty in his hands now, my eyes liquid now that I was sexually satisfied. I would have given him anything in that moment, gone anywhere, done anything. “

Cassandra’s POV The party was everything it promised to be. Over the top, opulent, and full of high society members and royals. Sebastian kept his arm linked in mine as he paraded me around the room. He introduced me to several people, and we stopped to chat with them. No matter where I was though, I was aware that almost all eyes were on me. As the official girlfriend of Sebastian Montgomery, I was the object of interest that night, which only fueled Antoinette’s fury even further. I felt powerful, on Sebastian’s arm. I saw some of the women glance at me and then whisper behind their hands, but I didn’t care. I knew what they were whispering about and it didn’t phase me because… I was their envy. Sebastian had been a player for a long time, making the rounds through these women. But I was the one who had snagged me. Sebastian had never had a girlfriend before. Not a real one. He had a slew of mistresses that he left in his wake,

Cassandra’s POV The next morning, I woke up to a sun-filled room with Sebastian beside me. My mind instantly went to the night before. It had been passionate to say the least. Sebastian was opening up a side of me sexually that I’d never experienced before. Don’t get me wrong. Love-making with Dillon had been fantastic too, just in a different way. Dillon was tender and sweet. Sebastian was edgy and raw. He was demanding and took charge, which was something I wasn’t used to. I sat up and Sebastian rolled over, a languid smile on his face. “Come here,” he said, reaching for me. I let him hold me, our naked bodies pressed together. He began kissing my neck and I giggled. “We have to get back to the city,” I said, trying to pry myself away from him. “What’s the rush?” he said, his voice low and husky. “I have my launch coming up and my to-do list is a mile long,” I said, rolling away from him
