Novel & Cerita Billionaire's Second Chance: Winning Her Back

“Let’s talk about this. We don’t have to do the divorce thing. We can sort this out… peacefully. Just you and me.” I stood still, arms crossed tightly against my chest. I didn’t blink. I had heard too many empty promises before. David took a slow step forward. His eyes begged for a second chance. “If it’s about money,” he said, “I can give you five hundred million dollars. Yes, Eunice. $500 million. If it’s the company you want, I can make you a top executive senior officer. You’ll have full power, full control. Just name it.”

The fastest way to do this was to marry a billionaire. Celine was a phoenix rising from the ashes of her scorched barn, reborn and remade into a vessel of justice. Her first step in her quest for vengeance, catch herself a billionaire, which was why she sat on Sebastian’s desk, swinging her lovely bare leg. Trying to remember everything Kim had taught her about flirting. Down with the Billionaires Club! “I thought you didn’t want to see me.”, Sebastian said as he eyed her toned body and the swell of her curves.

“You’re delusional. You think the world is some kind of movie?” “No, I’m strategic.” She tilted her head. “I want you to Think about it. A comeback story. Hollywood’s sweetheart and her billionaire fiancé, rekindling their love after overcoming obstacles. The media will eat it up. My career will bounce back. And you…” She smiled coyly. “You’ll be exactly where you were always supposed to be. With me.” I looked at her like she had lost her mind. Because she did. "You really think I'd ever do that?" I asked incredulously. Her smile faltered.

And then he let out a short, incredulous laugh. "You don't have to do this, Lilian," he said, shaking his head as if he were dealing with a stubborn child. "You have a billionaire ex-husband who wants you back. I can give you everything you need. You don't need to work, you don't need to suffer anymore."

Luke pointed out, licking at his ice cream cone with sticky fingers. I forced a smile, shoving the phone back into my bag. “It’s no one important, sweetheart. Eat your ice cream before it melts.” But my heart wouldn’t settle. Even as I listened to Luke chatter about his day, my thoughts circled back to that call. To her. To the woman who had stolen everything from me. Later that night, after Luke had fallen asleep beside me, I sat in the dim glow of the bedside lamp, staring at my phone. Her name was still there, waiting, daring me to call back.

He just stood there, staring at me across the crowded ballroom with an expression of complete devastation. The girl he'd thrown away, the wife he'd neglected and humiliated, the woman he'd told would never find anyone better, was Isabella Morrison. Granddaughter of Alexander Morrison. Heir to one of the largest fortunes in the country. One of the most powerful women in New York. And he'd let me go without a fight. The applause finally died down and I sat back down, accepting congratulations from the people at my table with grace and poise I'd learned from watching my brothers navigate society. But I was hyperaware of the Wei family table, of the chaos I knew was happening there.

How dare he. Don't get me wrong when I said he was a millionaire. Yes, he was a millionaire, but I wasn't a gold digger dating him for his money, it was the other way round. He was a millionaire, heir to a company, but, I was Fiona Katherine Winchester, billionaire and CEO of Winchester Group of Industries, the third most successful company on the entire continent, and, his company worked for mine. He was dating me for my money and I was dating him for my peace of mind.

Laura admitted quietly then shrugged, “nothing serious.” “Whoa,” I gasped. “I didn't realize you were…” She leaned forward, smiling wide, “into women? Don't worry, I'm also into men.” I don't know why that made me laugh, but it did. “So the heiress is your ex? Wow.” “She’s not my ex,” Laura replied. “We just fucked. I despise the Nepos who think money can buy them everything. They walk in expecting doors to open just because they were born lucky.” She sighed as she went on.

Chuckling, “you are ridiculous. Do you think anyone would be foolish enough to buy that story?” “Yes. People who are foolish enough like you who thought that a girl dressed as their girlfriend was actually their girlfriend. You didn't stop for a second to ask how logical everything was. I guess we will find supporters from those circles of people.” Was she implying that the person whom I caught discussing with someone on the phone was an impostor? Oh, Miles, how was I able to make these billions if I was as dumb as my feelings when it came to being hurt by love? “Long story short, I never wanted you back. We just wanted to manipulate our way back into the lives of you two, but it appeared th

I had left her heartbroken and shattered, and I had no right to expect anything else from her. My gaze swept over the luxurious office around me. I have everything I’d ever wanted. My empire, my own real estate company, wealth beyond imagination. I was no longer the man my father used to spit on, calling me a mistake. I was a billionaire now, powerful, influential. But Allison... she was no longer mine.
