Todos los capítulos de The Billionaire’s Devious Wife: Capítulo 41 - Capítulo 50

My wife had been missing for the past six days, and I was going out of my mind. I did everything in my power to find her, but I couldn’t. She made herself disappear like she had never existed before.I couldn’t bring myself to stay at our house because without her, it felt so big and cold. Every single room in that mansion reminded me of her—not that she had ever left my mind anyway.I tried to call and text her, but all my efforts were in vain. When I called her best friends after two days, I hoped they would tell me something that would ease my aching heart, but they didn’t. Apparently, Kendra informed them she’d be gone for a while, but she didn’t give them information regarding where she’d go.When I called them, it was obvious that she had told them something, because they sounded like they wanted me dead. I didn’t just call her best friends; I called mine too, hoping anybody could help me out, but no one knew where she was. I didn’t even know why I called Bryce and Elijah, but

I was surprised when I found Lana at my door.“How did you find me?” I wondered, blocking her way.“It wasn’t that hard, and we have to talk,” she replied. Although her confidence was still radiant, I could feel traces of hesitation behind it.“No, we don’t have to. There’s nothing to talk about.” Why was it so hard for this family to leave me alone?“Would it hurt you to listen to what I have to say?” she fought back. “Or are you afraid that I might convince you Declan isn’t the worst man in the world?”I stared at her for a couple of minutes before finally giving in. I stepped aside and let her into the small apartment I rented. Nothing she was about to say would make me change my mind about the decision I made.“I know he’s not the worst man in the world, but I also know that he’s not the man for me,” I replied as she took a seat on my small couch.“He made a mistake. We all did, but we’re not that bad.” Of course, she would defend her family. What else would I expect from a Dave

“I can’t believe Declan did all of that. I had always thought he was absolutely in love with you.” Tia’s voice was full of shock. My best friends had always been up to date on everything in my life, but ever since my marriage went downhill, I hadn’t given them any details. I only told them that Delcan and I weren’t on the best of terms.Three days ago, Delcan and I got divorced—something I couldn’t easily wrap my mind around, so it was time to tell them everything.I didn’t know why I didn’t tell them from the beginning. Perhaps I wanted to handle things on my own. Perhaps I didn’t want a lot of people to know because I didn’t want anybody to try to change my mind. Since I was leaving in less than two weeks, I wanted them to know everything.“And I don’t think he stopped loving me, Tia, but his betrayal was the worst.” I took in a shaky breath. I wasn’t going to cry over Declan again. I had shed so many tears over what happened.“I don’t know what to say,” Joelle mumbled, looking at m

A year later… “There’s something I want to show you,” I told my best friends nervously. I was about to introduce them to a new part of my life they knew nothing about, and I didn’t know how they were going to take it. We were standing in front of my studio. I felt that my heart was about to jump out of my chest at any moment.“Is it something good?” Joelle wondered as she walked by my side.“It’s really good, but it’s something I have been keeping from you,” I admitted.“Why did you keep it from us?” Tia asked, not showing any emotions, like she was waiting for my answer to decide if she should be angry or not.“Because for my entire life, I felt like I was under the radar. I wanted to create something for myself, and I didn’t want to tell anyone anything because I didn’t want anyone to accuse me of succeeding only because of my family’s name or the family I married into,” I told them, hoping they’d understand where I was coming from.“Did you reach what you wanted?” Joelle asked me.

I knew this day would come sooner or later, and I had been preparing myself for it for as long as I could remember. However, as I looked at myself in the mirror, I realized that taking this step was way bigger than I ever imagined.“Gold looks so good on you,” Joelle said, looking at me as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.“Do you think this is a good dress for a grand entrance?” I joked as I turned to face her.“It definitely is, but we all know it’s not about the dress at all,” Tia stated as she approached me. “If you show up in rags, you’re going to wreak havoc, bestie.”I laughed at her comment. While it might make people consider me full of myself for agreeing with my best friend, she was absolutely right. My return to LA was going to cause chaos. More than two years ago, I told my best friends about my secret identity, and when I did that, I knew they’d keep the secret just like I wanted.But tonight, I was going to let the cat out of the bag. I was going to let the entire
