All Chapters of Shouldn't Divorce The Hidden Heiress Of Multi-Billion Empire: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

~RichardAt first, I thought my mother was lying to me.Or maybe she had misunderstood some scandal involving my name and, unable to keep it to herself, had come all the way here to confront me about it.But no.After scanning the images and seeing their contents for myself, I was left completely flabbergasted.My lips parted in shock as I repeatedly shook my head, unable to process what I was seeing.The documents in my hands looked more like newspaper clippings. However, only the headlines and the most important sections of each newspaper had been cropped out. Several images had also been inserted alongside the headlines, making the entire thing look even more serious.But it was the very first headline that made my mouth fall open.“GLK PHARMACEUTICALS IN BLACKASH AS LIUXIU MEDICI FILES A $5.8 TRILLION LAWSUIT OVER FAKE ALIGNMENT AND FAKE DRUGS!”That caption alone left me completely stunned.“How did this... how did this even come about?!” I asked, my voice trembling with disbelie

~Zoey ThurlingtonRather than seeing Richard naked, in shorts, or even bare-chested, or at least seeing him in a position that would explain what I was currently thinking, I found him standing right beside his desk, staring intently at several documents spread across it.His eyes moved from one document to another, and he was so deeply concentrated on them that he didn't even realize when I entered the study.I had to make some noise to drag his attention away.“Hmmmmphhh… Hmppphh…”I cleared my throat dramatically.“I guess the documents you're staring at are way more important than your future wife standing right in front of you!”My words immediately pulled Richard's attention away from the documents. He quickly looked up, and our eyes met.“Here you are, Zoey. You finally came!”He started walking toward me.“I thought you wouldn't be here on time. You know I was worried about you. Thank God you're here already, my love!”I pinched myself inwardly.The way Richard was acting was s

~Zoey ThurlingtonTwo days had already passed, and we were getting closer and closer to the day I would never, ever forget in my life.My birthday.Richard always made my birthday special. Every year, he went out of his way to make sure I had fun and felt loved.You know, even when he was married, he would still sneak out and go the extra mile just to make me smile.And this year?I had a feeling it was going to be one of the biggest and most memorable birthday celebrations of my entire life.Richard and I were seated at the same dining table, almost side by side as we enjoyed a huge meal with his mother, who had come over to spend the night.She took a sip of her tea before turning to me with a warm smile.“Zoey, my dear. I heard what happened. Richard told me about your kind gestures. To be sincere, I am very grateful to you, my dear.”I smiled at her politely as she continued.“You are such a gem, you know? And your actions just prove that you are a very good fit for my son. I can'

~Zoey ThurlingtonI was still completely choked by the question Richard had just asked me.I had no idea how to respond.How was I supposed to tell him that what he believed wasn't actually true? That I didn't have Gerald Wolfe's number saved anywhere in my phone?But how could I possibly say that?Richard wouldn't understand.And even if I tried to tell him that I had only been joking three years ago, he would never believe me. He would probably question how someone in a position like mine could joke about something as important as having a connection to the Minister of General Affairs.Worse, I knew exactly what he would ask next.He would tell me to use my other connections and simply get Gerald Wolfe's number.And that was the problem.I didn't have any connections.Not to Gerald Wolfe.Not to the House of Assembly.Not to the country's ambassadors.All of those things I had once bragged about were nothing but lies I had carefully constructed to make myself look powerful, wealthy,

~Zoey ThurlingtonMy birthday had finally arrived.Honestly, I would have loved it if Richard had kept the entire arrangement a secret from me. I imagined him showing up that day with a huge smile on his face and saying,“Baby, I have a surprise for you.”Then he would reveal the beautiful arrangement, and I would stand there completely stunned.“Wow... oh my God!”That was exactly how I had imagined it.But I guess Richard didn't want things that way. He wanted me to be part of the entire arrangement instead.And now, I stood in front of everyone, staring at the banquet hall as it glittered beautifully before my eyes.The entire place had been transformed.Golden balloons floated across the ceiling while long ribbons hung elegantly from above. Tiny fairy lights covered the walls, sparkling like little stars, while beautifully decorated tables were arranged neatly across the hall. Yellow flowers were placed around the room, matching the warm golden glow of the lights.But what caught
