After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 15 Be part of my show
Rachel's POVI arrived at the location I was meant to meet Marina. I had called her last night to give her my new number and to tell her that I was ready to begin acting again. She suggested this restaurant and here I was. In a fancy restaurant, surrounded by fancy people. I looked around looking for Marina in the crowd. She said she was going to be seated not to far from the door, where the hell is she?I looked a little to the left before I saw someone waving her hands at me. "Over here". Marina said with a smile when I caught her eyes. I walked over there, the intense gaze of onlookers who were watching my every move. I held my head up high despite their disapproving gaze or was it shock... I couldn't tell. I was wearing black joggers and a white crop top, something I found in the walk-in closet in my room. How Ethan knew my size... I wasn't sure. But I decided not to think about it as I wore it here. Now I wasn't too sure wearing casual clothes to such a fancy restaurant wa
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 16 Third female lead
Rachel's POV"In your new show?" I asked confusedly. "Yes. I'm one of the co-directors in the upcoming movie, Snow Fall Love, you can join the show... " Marina explained enthusiastically. Snow Fall Love... My eyes widened as it dawned on me what the movie was. It was the new upcoming movie that got everyone on edge." Are you serious?" I asked in a pleasant surprise. Marina nodded her head with a smile. " The female lead have been chosen, and so as the first supporting actress, but you can apply for the third supporting actress... I'm sure you'll get the part if you auditioned for it". My lips stretched into a wide smile. " Thank you so much Marina". "It's alright. What are friends for". Marina shrugged. Why the hell did I ever listen to David when he said Marina was a bad person? Why didn't I listen to Marina when she said David was not the right person for me?A lot of why's ran through my mind as I stared at Marina. " Chel... Chelle... Rachel!" I heard my named being yell
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 17 Olivia Sangria
Rachel's POV As I waited my turn, I watched as the others rehearsed their lines with one another. Some were good, I would admit, while the others... I can shake my head at their performance. I suddenly felt pressed and stood up to use the restroom. " Where is it?" I looked around for a while before turning another corner. Yep, I was lost. Everywhere looked alike to me. Where the fuck is the restroom. " Are you perhaps lost?" A manly voice asked me from behind. I turned my body sharply to put a face to the voice. My eyes widened as I was taken aback by his appearance. He was a handsome man dressed causally in a white hoodie and black pants. There was an amused smirk on his perfectly sculptured face. His dark blue eyes staring intensely at me. What a beauty...I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. "Ms... Are you okay?" The amusement on his face changed to worry as he asked me. What is wrong with you Rachel, I shook my head to get back to my senses. "I'm.. I'm fi
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 18 I'm your new partner
Rachel's POVAs I was walking out stage I fumbled with my phone trying to call Ethan back to know the reason he called me." What the..." I bumped into someone suddenly startling me. " It's you..." The person said surprisedly. Who the hell. I raised my head to see who it was. Behold, it was Lana. Mother fucking freaking Lana!What was she doing here?" What are you doing here?" She asked the question in my mind to me. She was wearing glamorous clothes and carrying an expensive purse... She had started acting the part of an Andrew already. Two ladies were by her side, both crossed their hands and faced me angrily. " You know, I could ask you the exact same thing. " Or could it be...A thought came to my head. Marina said that the first and second lead actress were taken already, since Olivia is the first... Could Lana possibly be the second?God please no..." No... This is my place of work... I should be the one asking you what you're doing here". Shit! I'm right. Deep bre
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 19 Just how powerful
"Where were you!" Ethan's loud voice sounded in my ears the moment I stepped into living room.What is his problem? I flinched at the loudness of his voice. " Somewhere..."He raised on his brows. " I'm being serious! I came back home early and you were no where to be found". Was he worried about me?I felt a smile creeping on my cheeks. I coughed awkwardly to dismiss it. " I just went out to visit a friend". "A friend?" Ethan repeated his tone showing that he didn't believe me. Does he think Lana is the only friend I have? I rolled my eyes before taking my seat on one of the three seater chairs. I bent down to remove my shoes. " Marina... I went to visit Marina. You remember her right, the girl that..." I paused looking at Ethan. He had his hands crossed on his chest and one eyebrow raised up waiting for me to continue my explanation. The way he crossed his arms, made the muscles in his arm pop. He is so muscular and... No... No... I shook my head. I shouldn't be thinking o
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 20 Sleeping with the director
Third person's POVLana arrived home angrily and rushed to her room, destroying everything in her part. "How dare she!" She screamed dragging hair frustratingly. She flung her purse to the ground yelling angrily. She had never thought Rachel would recover from everything so soon, even to the point of getting a part in the show she had worked so hard before she could get a part in. It was so frustrating!" Damn that Rachel!"That bitch just keeps trying to get on her nerve. " Oh my... Lana, what..." Martha, walked into Lana room, she eyes widened and her hand moved to cover her mouth in shock. "Mother?" Lana sharply turned to see her mother suprised expression. ' Why is she here so early? ' Lana thought as she tried to plant a fake smile on her face. " What have you done to your room?" She exclaimed looking around Lana's room. " Mother... I... It's, er..."What was she ought to say?Martha saw the streaks of tears on Lana face and her tone and facial expressions soften. " What
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 21 Quit the show
Rachel and Martha sat opposite each other in the open restaurants without saying anything. Rachel heart couldn't stop beating as she thought of the many things her mother would want to talk to her about. Everything leading back to Lana. She was very sure that Lana had a hand in this meeting, and what her mother was about to say would prove it. "Mother... How... How have you been?" Rachel asked hesitatingly, before she picked up her coffee sipping it slowly, but shakily. Martha just stared at her without movements, it scared Rachel even more not knowing what was going on in her mother's head. " Mum... Please say something". She pleaded keeping down her coffee cup. " What do you expect me to say? " Martha finally spoke, her tone and attitude cold. Rachel was taken aback by her mother's cold voice but didn't show it." Why are you speaking to me like that... If anything I'm the one who was wronged... "" You... Wronged? " Martha laughed mockingly, picking you her coffee and sippin
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 22 The pain
Rachel's POVTears built up in my eyes as my mother accused me of sleeping with directors just to get a part in the show. She accused me of sleeping with men for money, me!Never in my life would I ever think that she would do something like that... For Lana... That damn... She even slapped me for her... Why can't she tell that that bitch is lying? Why was she only accusing me?" Is it because Lana complained to you that we would be working together? Is that why you're doing this?" I asked her with tears in my eyes. I watched as she struggled to find an excuse. Why couldn't she see between her daughter's lies? Is this what it meant when they said blood is thicker that water?" No..." I heard her say, then she continued. " It's because I don't want you inconveniencing my daughter in any way. Lana is a good child, no matter what you do to her, she always has your side. She pleads for you everytime... Why can't you see how good of a sister she is?" Good child? ...Good sister? If an

Lenora's POVShe raised her head up and pointed at herself "Me?" She said in a high tone before blinking twice to compose herself. "I recently turned twenty six ma'am." Twenty six. I repeated to myself nodding my head. "Did you test if you are my daughter? Is that yours?" I asked, rasing the tube up and she instantly shook her head. "No..." She laughed putting out her hand. "I know my parents. I just went to the lab and found this one there" She explained.I pursed my lips handing the tube over to Joan who took it with both hands. "You do this one, I'm off to check on some of the patients". Joan looked at me in surprise, and I couldn't blame her. The past few years, I had always been the one conducing the test alone and she knew it. But she had been working for me for over ten years, and I knew her very well. She was trust worthy enough, plus there was no guarantee that it could or could not be the right one. I gave her a tight smile before walking back to my office. I had sa

Lenora POV...Few days ago ..."Today is the day for the test Mrs Nielson." Joan Jett, my friend and the manager of the hospital said as we both walked back to my office. I had insisted that we do a round check on some of the patients in the top floor, something I started to do after the lady, Rachel Andrews was admitted her. I found myself being drawn to her in many ways than one, and was extremely dishearten after I heard she was arrested for a murder crime.It even became worse after I heard from my niece who was her doctor than she was rushed to an hospital after gotten almost beaten to death by a jail warder. She did look like a stubborn lady, but what could she possibly have said to a jail warden for the person to want to kill her with a beating?"... Mrs Nielson". "Huh?" I asked in confusion after I head Joan call my name. " Are you alright ma'am? I've been calling you for the past few minutes". She said looking worried and I nodded. "I'm fine, just thinking about stuf
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 137 Home sweet home
Rachel's POVAfter the extremely awkward moment with Lenora, Joyce announced that I could be discharged today. I found the sudden information surprising and that was when she explained that the only reason I was still on the hospital as from two days ago was only because I would be immediately taken back to the station if I was discharged, so she just choose not to discharge me. Ain't that nice?I was all set to go back to Marina's house, when Ethan just grabbed my things and said: "You're coming with me."Judging from the look on both Joyce and Marina's faces, they had thought I was going to argue, and that would probably been the right thing to do. My brain was screaming red alerts. What if he was taking me back with him to avenge Lana's death? She was after all the woman he was in love with, but my heart and body refused listening to my head. I just followed him out like an obedient puppy, and we were now on the way to his car. " Hey, Rachel!" I heard someone yell my name, a
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 136 You're free
Rachel's POVI hugged myself with my hands sighing for the fifteenth time in the last hour. Marina and Joyce were in the room with me yet I still felt lonely. I missed Ethan, so much. No matter how much I tried not to think of him, or even to just forget about everything he did, I just couldn't, and hearing Joyce talk that he was around wasn't helping either.I mean, why would a guy cheat on you, then after his girlfriend dies (PS, you're being blamed for the murder ), start doing everything he could to get you out of prison?What the hell was that?Was he waiting for Lana to die or something?"Rachel what are you thinking about ". I heard Marina say, and I blinked, looking at her. " What? " I asked still feeling lost. Marina shook her head before looking at Joyce, and then at me. " Are you still thinking about the meeting happening in a few days? " She asked before speaking again. " Nothing is finalized yet. And you can't let that bother you, you literally have bigger issues on
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 135 Terminated contract
Ethan's POV " Is it done yet?" I asked Mark as he walked into my office. Today was the fifth day after Rachel got arrested, and although I wanted to spend time with her at the hospital, my work back at the office were piling up and were not practically begging for my attention. Plus it was not like I really saw Rachel anyways. I would just seat at the waiting room all day as Joyce gave me updates about her situation. Mark had nagged me for hours to come to the office, and here I was seated there but I still couldn't get anything done. All I could think about was her. "Answer me Mark, did you do it?" I asked again as my best friend sat down on the chair opposite me. "If we want to do this the legal way without pulling any strings, I don't think there is a way to get Rachel out of prison". What? I scoffed in disbelief. I had asked Mark to find a way to get Rachel out of jail for the meantime while I focus on finding the killer and this was the news he was bringing back?
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 134 That was Ethan's child
Rachel's POV"And what's that?" Marina asked looking confused. I took in a deep breath shutting my eyes. I had thought that I wouldn't have to tell anyone about this, but seeing Marina here, acting so... Marinaish... I just couldn't help it. "I want to tell you the truth about what really happened the night Lana was killed," I said with a grim expression, and Marina's eyes almost popped out of her head in shock. "What the fuck?"...THE NIGHT LANA WAS KILLEDRachel's POV "That fucking crazy bitch!" I cursed constantly hitting the steering wheel of my car. Lana was a bastard, and all she did was to get on my nerves. It was getting sickening and I was getting tired and frustrated about it. "Just you wait and see bitch..." Just as I said that I sighed. Lana's car left the mansion, and I smirked.There was no way I was losing her now. I started my car and followed hers all the way to the... Mall?Really?After everything she just said to me she went to a freaking mall?! To do wha
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 133 We are somehow together
Rachel's POVWhat was Marina doing here?Although Joyce said she came to visit me, I didn't expect her to come in. Not after everything I said to her. The Marina I knew back then could hold a grudge for a long time, though she never did for me, but maybe I had crossed the limit. Who was I kidding? I did cross the limit."What are you doing here?"Marina rolled her eyes. "Can't I come to visit my best friend?" She asked sounding offended. I instantly shook my head. "That's not what I..."She smiled with a slight giggle. " It was acting. I was just messing with you; of course, I know you missed me." Marina said with a proud smile. My lips involuntarily hooked up. Despite everything I did and said to her, she was still here. Then my smile went down and so did my face. "I'm sorry," I muttered in a low voice but loud enough for her to hear. "I know you are," I heard Marina say and flashed my head towards her. "You just got arrested for something you didn't do, and then you find out
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 132 We may have to let her go
Marina's POVMy mind began to wander about after sitting in the waiting room for almost an hour. I was still yet to see Rachel and I was getting really bored. I couldn't just get on my phone because Lana's death was the most trending topic on social media right now, and I was afraid that if I even as much as glanced at it, I would get myself riled up. I leaned into my chair shutting my eyes as I breath in and out calmly. Just when I was about falling asleep the sharp sound of something vibrating woke me up. " Just who the hell is that? " I groaned, taking my phone out of my purse to check the ID caller. Fuck, it was director George Stone. Blinking my eyes in surprise, I cleared my throat severally before picking up the call. " Yes sir, "" Marina, you have heard the latest news, right? " The director's deep, stern voice came from the other side of the phone, and I gulped. ' Of course, I've heard. It took you almost four days to even call! '" Yes, I have, sir," I said instead.
After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO Chapter 131 Investigate Ethan
David's POV" Have you gone crazy? That was Ethan Wright and you disrespected Rachel in front of him!" Jameson thundered as soon as we were out of the hospital. I wasn't fully listening to what Jameson was saying because my entire mind was clouded with anger at Ethan, plus the excruciating pain I was feeling from my finger wasn't helping matters. That bastard Ethan had the guts to break my finger, and that too very easily. Who the hell was he?Yes, he was a billionaire and the CEO of one of the biggest companies in the country, but how the hell was he able to break my finger so easily?" That man must be hiding something". I muttered to myself. " Are you kidding? Seriously David? And you're thinking that now?" Jameson yelled, his eyes almost popping out of his skull. " Yes, I am. " I growled, before shaking my head to get my emotions back in check. I held Jameson's hands frantically and made him look at me." Just take a look at it. Up until six months ago, we had never heard of t
