All Chapters of His Ex Is Now A Billionaire's Wife: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

It weirdly hurt. My chest was on fire, like I'd just heard this for the first time, like it was happening all over again.I remembered the morning I woke up seeing the engagement, how he kneeled down for her with my fucking idea, how he told me whatever we had had to end right after releasing in me. How he called me easy. It was like I was fucking reliving my past.If not for the fact that I remembered Victor was here, I'm sure I could have started screaming and shouting, but well, Victor was now my husband and it wasn't a deal anymore, we had just talked about giving each other a real chance so I pulled myself together.“It's this weekend. We can cancel if you want.” He added dryly.“What? Why would we cancel? Unless you don't want to go, of course.”“Why wouldn't I want to go?”“Then why do you think I will not want to go?” I asked him the same question and he just shook his head.I was trying so hard to play it cool, but he seemed ahead of me as he didn't buy it. Instead, he just s

I had to ask, I had to know what was going on as this was now messing with my head. I mean, not even over two hours ago I received a call and the person claimed to be my father's assistant, right-hand man, or whatever he called himself, and now this?“Do you also work for my father? Because I already got that call earlier.”“You'll know everything soon enough. Now dispose of the phone.” He instructed, and I remembered it was the same story at the firm. I was instructed to throw the phone away, and so again I asked the reason.“I was told the same thing just a day ago. Why do you keep wasting phones?”“To make sure the phone can never be tracked, we make them self-destructive. If you don't throw it away, it will explode in your hands either way.”“I see.”“We’ll be in touch, and tell no one about this.”Then the call ended, and being warned how it was self-destructive, I quickly threw it away and rushed to the car. And guess what? Mom didn't even seem to notice I wasn't with her, as wh

Victor brought me a bottle of water and then made me a snack. Mom was still cooking and she said she was taking the food to Clara. Honestly, I didn't have the energy to ask her anything. She was so focused on Clara even now she didn't notice that I looked restless as she was busy talking about Clara.For a second I even considered if perhaps that man was right, that Dad cared for me more than Mom.Regardless, I kept my mouth shut. I had the sandwich and once I was done Victor insisted on taking me to bed. He actually forced me to go to sleep and I pretended to sleep, but once he stepped into the shower I opened my eyes as my mind wandered to earlier.I wanted to call that man and ask him if he had spoken to my father, if he had set the meeting, but I didn't. I couldn't. I was contemplating the whole time. I even got out of bed and started pacing, and when I heard the shower stop I jumped back onto the bed and pretended to be asleep.I had my eyes closed. Victor stepped into the room.

It was beyond humiliating, my nervous system was shaken and I knew if I stayed a second longer here I might lose it and do or say something I might regret later.“Goodbye, Mrs Cole,” I said, and despite her calling me, asking me to wait and hear her out, I left and though I was in my head, I still heard Elara mumble and tell Mrs Cole to let me go.I was so pissed I violently opened the door and bumped into someone. I didn't even care if I was at fault, right away I was there scolding the person, who turned out to be Ronan.“I'm sorry, Lyra.”“You're sorry? For what exactly? Stealing my engagement idea? Or my wedding date? Or are you sorry for bumping into me?”“Lyra, are you alright?”“You just bumped into me. Do I look alright to you?!”“I'm thinking that's not the only reason you're this mad.”“At least you get this one right. You know I don't even know what to be mad at you for, like you've done so much and I can't just see why I'm this stupid.” I went on. “I had to sneak out, Vict

Ronan was serious, he really waited for Elara to apologise, but it wasn't happening.“You have lost your mind if you think I will apologise to her.”“Okay fine, then I'm left with no choice but reporting your crimes to your father.”“You won't dare, I'm your fiancée.”“You ran to my father about me too, so trust me, I won't hesitate.” Ronan's voice was still serious and I just, I was in awe. I never thought he would ever talk to her like this.“Ronan.”“Apologise now, Elara. You stole Lyra's wedding date and that hurt her.”Okay, now I was like in those manipulative reel series. Usually the man takes the villain's side, but here Ronan was on my side. I wasn't a villain, so that surprised me.“Ronan, I can't believe you're choosing your ex's side over mine? I'm carrying your child.” Elara went into her manipulative mode. “I literally can't take any stress, it's not good for the baby.”“Lyra is pregnant too. The same way you can't take the stress is the same way she also can't take it.”
