Semua Bab Billionaire's Regret: Getting My Badass Wife Back: Bab 51 - Bab 60

Louisa:I rolled my eyes, feeling a surge of annoyance. I just told her my relationship sucked and now this? "Melisa, I don't need you to set me up on blind dates. I'm fine."But Melisa wouldn't take no for an answer. "Nonsense, Louisa! You need to get back out there and start living again. And I've got just the guys for you. Let me send you their photos. They're so charming! You'll eventually fall for one – or all " she giggled as if she just forgot what I told her. Before I could protest, Melisa started sending me photos of the seven men she had lined up for me. I scrolled through them, feeling my anger grow with each passing photo. What's this?Gosh. I was sick of this!!!"Melisa, stop!" I exclaimed, trying to keep my cool. "I don't need to see these. And I definitely don't need to go on blind dates with these guys."But Melisa just laughed. "Oh, come on, Louisa! Don't be such a party pooper. Just take a look and see if any of them catch your eye."I took a deep breath, trying to

Louisa:Is he mad?I spun around, my heart racing with anger. "Yes, I can," I said, my voice firm. "I don't have to stay on a date that's clearly not working out."Jayden sneered. "You're just playing hard to get," he said, taking a step closer to me. "You think you're too good for me? I saw it in that pretty face of yours. Even after everything I told you, you refused to be impressed. Tsk, tsk." "What's your point?" I snapped."I'm just saying, you're making a big mistake," Jayden said, his voice dripping with condescension. "I'm a catch, and you're just a...a..." He trailed off, his eyes raking over me with disdain.I felt a surge of anger, but I refused to let him get under my skin. "I think I've heard enough," I said, turning on my heel and walking away. Gosh. What's his issue? I was just suddenly sick of this. Melisa's going to get in trouble for this. Blind date my foot! Jayden called out after me, his voice echoing through the parking lot. "You'll regret this! You'll be craw

Ryan:I walked into my house gracefully and the maids rushed out to welcome me."Good evening sir." They greeted, genially.I mumbled a reply, storming inside. I felt really sick eating the pasta but I had to. I want to be everything Alex was. I had spent years surfing through the net, doing a little secret background check on her ex husband. After she told me everything,three years ago, I was so surprised. The man Louisa married was my former best friend. And my biggest rival. The man I desired to take down. To take everything away from. The man I won't rest until I crush him under my feet. At first I didn't care that they were married, until I started having feelings for her. Now I'm pleased with their divorce. Now I'd love nothing more than to show him how victorious I'm going to be once I've taken her. That's why I rushed back home. My men has been spying on her and they relayed that Alex is living with her. His fúcking nerves! I closed the door to my room, a mix of emotions

Louisa:I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. What? Where did that come from? I tried to play it cool, but I could feel my face heating up. "Uh, Ryan? He's... nice, I guess."Rhiannon laughed, a throaty, amused sound. "Nice? That's all? I think he's quite charming, don't you?"I shook my head, feeling a little bewildered. "Rhiannon, I don't know what you're getting at. Ryan and I are just... acquaintances, I suppose."Rhiannon's smile never wavered. "Acquaintances, darling? I think you're selling yourself short. I've seen the way Ryan looks at you. And I have to say, I approve.".I gulped in shock. What...What is she implying?? Just as Rhiannon was about to say something else, a woman with a stern expression appeared at her side. Rhiannon smiled warmly at her. "Nicola, darling! I'm so glad you're here. I was just talking to Louisa..."But before Rhiannon could finish the introduction, Nicola's eyes landed on me, and her expression darkened. She frowned, her eyes narrowing into

Louisa:I felt tears prick at the corners of my eyes as Alex's words washed over me. No…no…No way. I am going to leave him and it's going to happen fast. "Just leave me alone, Alex!""Louisa –""Alex, stop," I said, my voice shaking. "You're making this harder than it has to be."But Alex didn't stop. Instead, he pulled me closer, his arms wrapping around me like a vice. "I'm not making it harder, Louisa," he said, his voice fierce. "I'm making it real. I'm making it honest. Because that's what we need right now. We need honesty. We need truth."I felt myself getting lost in Alex's eyes, in the depths of his emotion. I felt myself getting pulled under, like I was drowning in a sea of feeling. I don't know what's wrong with me. All my anger just melted under his intense gaze. The burning volcano within me is gone.Why is he doing this to me? Why is he making it so hard to move on?And then, just as suddenly, I was free. Alex released me, his arms dropping to his sides. I stumbled back
