All Chapters of The Billionaire's Breaking Point : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

{HERMIONE}“God… I’ve missed you, Hermione,” Adam says, his mouth warm against my neck as he runs soft kisses down my throat.His breath is heavy, I can feel the desperation in it. Like he's been longing for me as badly as I have been for him.Two years, and this man… he still makes me burn like no one else ever has.“I just… I just can’t get enough of your soft lips,” he moans deep into my mouth as his lips seize mine firmly.Before I can speak, he suddenly lifts me up. I gasp as he pins me against the kitchen fridge. My back arches from the cold shock, but my legs wrap around him on their own, as if my body already knows who it belongs to.“Oh my God, Adam,” I scream, half moaning, half laughing. “You do this anywhere.”He pulls back just enough to look at me, his fire-brown eyes locking onto mine, burning with more than just lust.“What?” he smirks. “I can’t lust after my own wife?”Before I can answer, he pushes deep into me. My lips part with a sharp cry as he fills every inch of

“Mrs. Hermione, are you okay?”I sniff, my throat burning. “I’m not a Mrs anymore, Hunter,” I whisper, forcing myself to look at him even though I feel like collapsing right here.His grey eyes widen. “Damn!…” He exclaims, pressing a hand through his black hair. His grey eyes still on me like he wants to say something but nothing comes out.“Can you… can you just drive?” My voice shakes.“Okay,” he replies quickly. He bends to lift my box, places it inside the car, then opens the door for me.“Please,” he says, gesturing.“Thanks…Hunter.”I slide into the seat, my body feeling heavy, my chest tighter than it has ever been. He starts the engine, and slowly, we roll forward.I look back, the mansion grows smaller as we move down the streets, I can't stop staring at it.Every memory I had in those walls. The kisses, the laughs, every touch, they all want to tear me in pieces.Hot tears spill again before I can stop them.“What did I do to you, Adam? What did I do to deserve this?”I k

{ADAM}“Name your price, Cassie. I’ve got important places to be,” I say, standing in front of the mirror, fixing my cufflinks. My reflection stares back at me, calm on the outside, but my chest feels too tight. I'm finalizing our divorce today but Hermione's crying face has been haunting me since yesterday.“What if I say that I want you instead…Adam?” Cassie says, her voice sounds like she's teasing, but I hope she doesn't mean what she just said.I watch her through the mirror as she slowly drags the white duvet off her body, slides off the bed, and catwalks toward me. Her breasts are out like she doesn't give a heck.I turn to face her before she gets too close. “The fuck do you mean?” I ask. “You divorced your wife, right? You’re single now…” she whispers, grabbing my black coat.I take a slow, deep breath, trying to steady myself. “Are you flirting with me?”“No, I’m just…remembering high school days,” she says, tilting her head, smirking.“The sex? It was insane. I miss,” sh

{HERMIONE} 8 MONTHS LATER.“Oh my fucking God, Zara. This is literally the best red dress I’ve ever worn in my entire life.”I can’t stop looking at myself. It’s been eight months of coding like a mad person, barely leaving my room. Zara has been handling the marketing, and now the launch is finally today. My heart is racing so fast it feels like it’s trying to jump it's way out of my chest.I don’t even know how to stand in front of an audience. Stage fright could knock the oxygen out of my system. But as the app owner, I still gotta do it without excuses.I need to finally show the world my face.I glance at my phone. Two hours left before I’m on stage. My chest feels heavy. Anxiety, joy, anticipation, happiness, everything all at once, like I can’t even separate them.The bathroom door slides open, and Zara comes out with a towel pressed against her wet hair.“Zara, we’re going to be late,” I say, grinning at her through the mirror.“Oh yes!” she screams, throwing her towel asi

{HERMIONE}“Congratulations, Samuel Larson. You’re officially the personal assistant to Ms Hermione Bennett, the CEO of D-Egnite Tech Brand.”Zara says it like she’s hosting the Grammys, and I can’t help but laugh out loud.She’s forcing this fake professional tone, even though nothing about Zara is professional. Not even her face and her expressions.I shake Samuel’s hand. His palm is a little damp, but his face is beaming with enthusiasm. Like he just won a scholarship or something. He looks like he’s been waiting for this moment his whole life. But honestly, I know for a fact he’s been in Zara’s DMs for two straight months begging to take this role after the launch.“Nice having you, Samuel,” I finally say.“Thank you so much, Ms Bennett.”His voice is steady, but there’s this tiny crack in it. He’s trying to keep it together, but I can tell he’s nervous.The problem is… I have no idea what to assign him yet. Today blew up way beyond what I was ready for.Having a PA wasn’t even
