Semua Bab Divorced By My Ex, Accepted By His Step-Brother : Bab 1 - Bab 10

SASHA’S POV "How long has it been again, Sasha?" Nina, my best friend, asked, taking a sip from her hot coffee as the steam rose and dispersed into the air. “You’ve been married for three years, but sorry to say, you look happier when you were single.” A sad smile stretched on my lips as I wrapped my fingers around the coffee mug, letting the hotness burn through the palm of my hand. “Has it been that long?” I raised a brow, bringing the mug to my lips and took a sip. “Roland does not love you. You should know that by now.” Nina said, her voice trailing off in vulnerability. Was she right? Totally, yes. But why do I still cling onto a glimmer of hope that a day would come when my husband, Roland, would acknowledge me and love me the way I love him? “I do know that, Nina. But I love him.” My voice strained as tears wet my eyes, threatening to fall. I pinched myself to stop the tears because we were in a public cafe and eyes were on me. Being a wife of a billionaire made

SASHA’S POVGetting Roland to understand that I wasn’t the one who harmed his childhood sweetheart was like speaking to a brick.He didn’t return home after the welcome party and neither did he pick any of my calls or read my messages.It has been three days now. Three days of being all alone in this wide and vast mansion. Three days of not seeing my husband.It was literally the worst three days of my life. It hurts a lot because I love Roland so much that even at the expense of my pride, I was still begging him not to divorce me.The thought of not having him in my life anymore made my stomach churn and filled with dread.If only Anastasia never came along, would I be living my best life with Roland?Would he have looked at me differently like he always does with Anastasia?Many thoughts flooded my mind and tears filled my eyes once more.My eyes were puffy and red due to tears and even when Nina came for a visit, she was vulnerable because she couldn’t help me in any way.While I w

SASHA’S POVI’ve never been caught off guard more than I was at the moment. Noah Beck’s words made my jaw drop, eyes widened and brows creased.Looking into his eyes, I searched for any sign of a joke or faking, but I found none.This man was damn serious!“Are you for real?” I craned my neck, my brain foggy and unable to process his words fully.His lips paused into a thin line and the darkness in his eyes threatened to swallow me whole. “As real as the benefits you’ll gain.”Great, his reply threw me off guard also.Why does everything about this intolerable and insufferable billionaire throw me off guard?“Do you realize I just got divorced? What kind of woman will society call me if I get married to you the same day I got divorced?” It might not be important to him, because I could swear Noah Beck doesn’t giving a flying fuck about anyone, but I do.Despite all I had faced when I was married to Roland, I wouldn’t want to go through that phase in a more cruel way, this time.Getti

SASHA’S POVHe refused to rise up on his feet, not until I forgave him.Forgave him for what exactly? As far as my memories could get me, I haven’t seen him before, so we were basically strangers.I’ve never been this confused and startled my whole life and before I could regain my voice, eyes were on us.Staff, janitors, receptionist and security.They all stared at me curiously and the man kneeling in front of me, in pity.They had no reason to sympathize with him when he did absolutely nothing wrong.“Why are you kneeling? Please stand up, you’re creating a scene.” I lowered my back and whispered into his ear.I was also confused myself, so those were the best words I could put out.“I can’t stand up if you don’t forgive me.” Shaking his head, he lowered his head and his hands reached out to grab my ankles, startling me even more.At that point, I could pass out and go into a state of shock, because it was too much to bear.Startled at his cold hands making contact with my ankles, I

NOAH’S POV‘Why did you go to such great lengths to get a wedding ring of fifty thousand dollars for a fake marriage?’ Sasha’s words kept replaying nonstop in my head.I also had no idea. Despite knowing our marriage was a fake one, I wanted to make it look as real as possible.Sasha might be my fake wife for a year, but she deserved everything real.I wouldn’t treat her the way Roland did. She had gone through a lot.For the first time in three years, I let out a small smile. A genuine one. “Such a stubborn woman.”While I was busy smiling like a sheep, the door to my office pushed open and my assistant, Matt, walked in and bowed his head.His brows arched when he caught a whim of the smile on my lips before it completely disappeared. “I see you’ve lost your manners, now Matt, haven’t you?”He panicked as he tried to defend himself from my wrath. “I’m sorry, President Beck. I lost my manners for a second.” He admitted.With a nod, I clicked my tongue, returning my gaze tothe laptop
