Lahat ng Kabanata ng Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret : Kabanata 101 - Kabanata 110

ARIAI could see that Caspian was eager to share this news, whatever it was.“Caspian, you're not lying to me, are you?” I asked, angling my head back to gaze at him.He wrinkled his nose. “I don't care about those two enough to lie about them.” His words were confusing because Talia was in fact very close to him. Close enough that she was working for him though she had no skill, and according to Analide, he was even paying her a monthly allowance. This would have been the perfect chance to question him on that, but I was too curious about what else he'd found out. I nodded. “You're right. What else did you find out?” “It was Zara who killed Ivan.” He delivered the words easily enough, but they completely cut off the air supply to my lungs. I jumped off his lap. “What?” I yelped, as though the words had physically hurt me to hear. “That's not possible, Rowan said he'd done it himself.” Caspian sat back and spread his legs. He looked completely unaffected by the news he'd just s

ARIABy Monday, I was back at work. I hadn't had the time to call Reed, and I decided I would do that before the day ended.Xander had reached out to me to discuss the other benefits of being Belle, but I had refused to take them. I already had a car and everything else offered was something I could afford for myself.The kids and I were still staying at Mrs. Finnick's home, but I planned that we'd move out that evening. I could tell something had changed immediately I arrived at work. I heard the whispers from the office foyer, and it accompanied me up to my office. Settled at my desk, I called Maya into my office and asked what was going on. Mara always seemed to have the newest information floating around the office at her finger tips. “Miss Michaels was fired this morning!” She answered excitedly. “Everyone heard her and Mr. Finnick arguing by his car. He was so angry at her!” Oh. So Caspian had fired Talia? I hadn't still found out why he'd exployed her in the first place, bu

ARIA“What do you want, Rowan?”I knew as I answered that taking the call was a bad idea. I didn't want to leave Rowan with the impression that he could always call and I'd answer. “What do I want? How about what you want, Aria?” His growly voice snapped into my ears. I pulled the phone from my ears, staring at it for a couple confused seconds. What was he referring to?“One moment you're with Caspian, the next moment your fucking around with me and now Reed?” Rowan continued, anger seeping like bile into his tone. I could assume he was still watching me, then. And what business was it of his who I choose to spend my time with? “Again, Rowan, why are you calling me?” My fingers drummed impatiently against the desk. A second later, the phone was ripped from my fingers. I cut my eyes at Reed who held the phone against his ears, anger written all over his face.“Rowan Zane? This is Doctor Elias Reed, but I'm sure you already know who I am because I found you lurking by my car. Stay

ARIACaspian parked the car, pushed the door open and turned to me first. “Don't step out, I'll be back.” I watched, confused as he stepped out and opened the back door, unbuckled the kids and Meredith. He said something to Meredith which made her laugh, slid back into the car and drove back out of the driveway. The whole thing was just really surprising and confusing. I craned my head back, looking around us. “Is there something I am not being told?” Caspian grinned, shaking his hair out. A strand of it dropped over his eyes and for a second, I was distracted by it.I leaned towards him and tucked it behind his ears, only catching on to what I'd done when he leaned in and kissed my fingers. “How was your meeting with Reed?” Caspian took my hand and twined our fingers together before placing them on his thigh. Oh my bubbling heart! “It was rather sad. Reed lost a patient and was already nursing a drink which is really unlike him. And to crown it all off, Rowan called. That man

ARIAIf I didn't deserve him, then neither did Talia. Her body was leaning in towards me which made it more than easy to swing myself out of the way and kick her knee in. I heard the crack of her bone and she stopped mid motion, her voice exploding with raw, primal pain. The scream ripped out of her stomach and Zara’s face crumpled with shock. “What the hell do you think you're doing?” I yelped as Zara’s fingers sank into my hair and she scratched my face. That could go either of two ways. I could get into a physical fight with these two, or I could let Zara wound me. I jerked away from Zara, stepping out of her range.“If you hurt me, Zara, I'm going to ruin your pretty face. I promise you.” I snapped at her, dodging the punch she tried to land on my face.Zara staggered forward when her punch missed, fury stamped across her face. “You think you’re better than us? You think you can just have all three of them?”“I think you’re drunk and trespassing,” I said, backing toward the d
