Semua Bab Billionaire’s Ex-Wife’s Revenge: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Chapter 12 Layla Patel ~•~ After Olivia came to meet me on the road, I asked her to accompany me to my foster parent’s house. Those people didn’t care about me either, but I just wanted to see if they would be willing to accommodate me for a little while. “Are you sure it’s a good idea to go back there?” Olivia asked as I drove over to their residence. “You know how they can be.” I shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t even know, I just don’t have anywhere else to go,” I replied, running my fingers through my scattered hair. Olivia’s brows knitted into a frown. “You can come over to my place.” She replied. “You can stay there until you find somewhere else to go.” I shook my head. “No, you live with your boyfriend and I don’t want to impose.” I would have considered staying with her if she lived alone, but I didn’t want anyone to see me as a burden. Olivia let out a defeated sigh. “Fine, let’s just go there and see what they’ll say.” After a short drive, we arrived

Chapter 14 Layla Patel ~•~ When I was still pregnant with my baby, the doctors told me that giving birth to her was going to be a risky process. I was emotionally drained, so it affected my body. I had so many birth complications. Every day felt like hell. I almost listened to their advice when they asked me to get rid of the baby. But on a random day, I realized that I didn’t want to do something like that. Everything was Lucas’s fault. He abandoned me and messed with my mental health. So I wanted to have the baby, just to prove to myself that I was a strong woman. I know it didn’t make sense, but it made me feel some kind of accomplishment. I mean, I did push through without him. And also planned on raising the baby without his help. It was one of the best decisions I had made in my life. Every day I opened my eyes, I was grateful that I decided to risk myself for my daughter. Lily was worth it. She had a striking resemblance to her father. Someti

Chapter 16 Layla Patel ~•~ As soon as the plane landed at the airport, a nostalgic feeling washed over me. I let out a deep breath as I made my way out of the airport. Olivia was already waiting for me. My assistant suggested that I move with security because of my status, but I declined her offer. I understood her concerns but it was New York. I could take care of myself. As soon as Olivia saw me, she ran towards me. Olivia didn’t even wait for me to get to the car before pulling me into a tight hug. “Oh my goodness!” I exclaimed, throwing my arms over her. “I’m so happy to see you,” I added as we broke the hug. I couldn’t stop smiling. “I missed you too, Layla.” She squealed, taking my bag from my hand. “How was your flight?” She asked as she led me to the car. I chuckled. “I went through different emotions on my way here. At some point, I even considered turning back and going home to my kids.” Olivia laughed. “I’m glad you didn’t turn back. I missed you

Chapter 18 Layla Patel ~•~ “You really want us to have lunch at Lucas’s favorite restaurant?” Olivia asked as I settled down on the passenger’s seat of her car. We had already made reservations at another restaurant, but I decided to change the plans last minute. I didn’t have a lot of time to spend in New York, so I wanted to execute my plans quickly. I nodded my head. “Yes, I would really love to,” I replied, fastening my seatbelt. “But we can go to the other restaurant if you aren’t okay with it.” Olivia shook her head. “No, no. Let’s go to his favorite restaurant.” She replied, her tone gentle. “Who knows if you might run into him.” I smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude for her support. “Thank you:” Olivia started the car and drove into the city. As we passed the familiar streets and buildings, I couldn’t help but reminisce about my time in New York. “Hey, that’s our usual cafe spot!” I exclaimed as we drove past the place where Olivia and I usually hun

Chapter 20 Layla Patel ~•~ It was surprising to hear that the restaurant was now owned by Lucas’s family. I was a little bit curious to hear the story behind it. As Jamie left, I could tell she was shocked to see me in New York. She was also shocked to see that I didn’t give a fuck about her anymore. In the past, I was nice to her even though she treated me badly. I wanted her to like me so much that I tolerated all the horrible things she did to me. But it was different this time. I didn’t even let her get a proper conversation out of me. “Do you think she’ll tell her brother?” Olivia asked as Jamie had returned to the counter. I scoffed. “Of course, she’s going to tell him right away,” I replied, a confident smile spread across my face. “That’s what she’s best at doing.” Jamie always called her brother immediately whenever it had something to do with me. Even after all these years, I was certain that she hadn’t changed. Before Jamie left our table, I had
