All Chapters of Winning Back His Billion-dollar Ex-Wife : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter 22NORA CARTER I finally allowed my tears to flow freely down my cheeks, my nails digging into the cold tiled floor as everything replayed in my head.For years, I'd told myself that I would stand up for myself if I ever had to face Jasper again, but here I was, trembling at the mere sight of him.Turns out that I couldn't escape the trauma entirely.The door creaked open along the hallway, then Finley came rushing to me worriedly.Finn followed.“Mommy…” her eyes scanned me with worries as she stood in front of me. "Are you okay?”My hands trembled as I quickly wiped my tears and sniffled, nodding."Yes. I'm fine.”"You're crying, mom…" Finn pointed out. “That uncle. Did he hurt you?" I shook my head, then pulled them close and gave them a small smile."I’m fine.” "But you're crying.” Finley was already freaking out, her eyes glistening with tears. "Did he hurt you?”"No, he didn't.” I said. "I'm fine, trust me.”"Come here…" I dragged myself to my feet, then pulled them c

Chapter 24NORA CARTER “The agency just got back to me." Nolan’s voice came through the phone. “None of their staff are available for now, but they said that they would reach out as soon as they find someone." I exhaled deeply, rubbing my temple, frustrated.Why was it so difficult to find a nanny here?“Why don't you make a post online? I'm sure it'll be easier to—”"No.” I cut him off. "That's not even an option.”He exhaled.“I'll be on the lookout and let you know if anything changes." He said. “But how do you plan to handle taking care of them and your job?" “It's okay. I'll handle it." After the call ended, I tossed my phone on the bed and ran my fingers through my hair.It was risky to leave them home alone, especially now that Jasper knew where we live.He could barge in here any moment and harm my kids.It was even more dangerous seeking for a nanny on the internet, knowing Jasper might be stalking my socials. Who knows the crazy thing he might do this time.The last thin

Chapter 26NORA CARTER A cold sweat broke through my skin as memories of years ago clawed back into my mind.The video. The laughter, and the blames that followed.It all happened that night.I'd been in love with Levi Jones, our class president.He was handsome, charming, and the dream man of every girl in our school, but somehow, he noticed me out of all the girls.This is love. I'm lucky. That had always been my thoughts, until after I gave my virginity to Levi, and the next morning, videos of him fucking me had circulated in the school’s forum.The backlash that followed almost led me to taking my own life.It wasn't until months later before I realized that it was all Jasper. He'd asked Levi to approach and sleep with me because he couldn't have his way with me himself.Even after his parents found out, they never did so little as give me the justice I deserved.‘It doesn't change the fact that you slept with a man while you're supposed to be studying, so you're not innocent aft

Chapter 28BRYCE WINSTON “Do you like mommy?" I blinked.“Huh?" “Come on, Finn. Don't ask him that?" Finley scolded him, and he scoffed.“What?" “Why did you ask that, boy?" He stared at me for a moment, then dropped his chip and shrugged. "You came to our house and were worried about Mommy the other day. Just now, you also looked worried…”“You only worry about the people you like." I opened my mouth and closed it back, then a small smile curved my lips.A little boy asking this kind of question was probably something anyone wouldn't be excited about, but somehow, it tickled something inside me.That was until the next words that rolled out of his tongue."Daddy is coming back this Christmas.” He said, wiping the smile off my face. "Mommy and Daddy are going to be together, so you should stop liking mommy.”A sharp sting moved through my chest before I could stop it.“What?" “Mommy said if you like someone and they don't like you back, it'll break your heart.” He pouted his l

Chapter 30BRYCE WINSTON“Grandpa, can you please stop?" I dragged my fingers through my hair, frustrated. “I told you enough with these blind dates already." “I would've picked one of those numerous women if I was interested all these years—”"Are you trying to remain unmarried for the rest of your life?” His angry voice echoed through the phone."You know how hard I've looked for Nora all these years. She's back now, and you want me to…” ‘Don’t like mommy. You're going to get your heart broken. Daddy is coming back this Christmas’Warmth spread through my chest as my grip tightened on the phone.Right. Not that thing could work out between us again anyway. Getting her to forgive me for what happened was already difficult, let alone getting together with her even if she had no man in her life.“Just give up, grandson." He said. "Settle down with one of your blind dates. And don't you dare make Ms Carter uncomfortable." “If she so much as reports you to me for bothering her, I won
