Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 34 Over the years
*MILENA*I couldn’t describe how I felt when Arturo left my bedroom that night.It had been hard for me to fall asleep but I tried to.I tried to accept this.It was the right thing to do.Plus,I could always use my vibrator.Granted,it wouldn’t be as good as Arturo but it could work.************My night was shattered past 4:am when my phone went off. I groggily rolled over and grabbed it, not checking the number.“Hello.”I was not fully awake enough to think clearly.“Milena Gordon?”The male voice asked. I pulled the phone from my ear and checked the number. It said a private number.“Yes. Who is this?”I wondered who would call me this early.“We are from the fraud squad, and we have some questions to ask about your case?”Fraud squad? What case?“Do you realize it is 4:30 in the morning?”“Yes, sorry for the early start. Can you come to the station?”“What?now?”“Yes, Maam.”“Okay, give me half an hour to get dressed.'“We will send a car for you.”Not sure how long I would be at

*ARTURO*The meeting in Gustavo’s office was shorter than usual. We had no new people on the waiting list for a heart and Gustavo was eager for Lena to get started, making more hearts.She was experimenting with a new compound, one she believed would be less likely to be rejected by the recipient. From what I understand, she had two hearts to go now, but with the old compound, the same that was in the pig and still going strong. Gustavo was keen to get one of the men on the list given the heart.The man in question was told about the experimental heart and was interested in giving it a go. He was not going to last much longer, and if Lena agreed that the man could have a new heart in less than a week, she would like the fellow to be there in the hospital, isolated from germs and on a drip for something she would not tell me about, but said it helped reduce the rejection.After more pushing by Gustavo,Milena agreed and suggested they get some contracts together, for her side of the hea

*ARTURO*Tomorrow we have interviews, both Gustavo and I will sit in them, but Milena will be the one to make the final decision. This is the first time the hospital has ever put anything out to the media. We must get the right team behind us, to promote the good and to help us if things go badly.Milena is nervous, this is outside her comfort zone, but she understands the importance of having a good press.“Milena, do you want to walk with me in the morning? Can we talk about the interviews? Or just walk together, and I can keep your mind off it.”I was hoping she would give me an in.Something had not been the same. It was as if she had pulled back.Yes,we had agreed to stop having sex but we didn’t agree to not to be friends anymore.I was not sure if it was because we were working at the same place, and that had made her uncomfortable to be work with someone you had sex with, or if something else was holding her back. I want the Milena I first met back, the one that gave me a lot o

*ARTURO*The interviews started and when a woman arrived looking like she was here to sell herself and not her product, I felt Milena stiffen. I knew there was a story behind that reaction. This woman looked at Milena with hatred in her eyes, but when she looked at me, I felt disgusted, like she had just rubbed herself all over me, and was looking at me as if I was her next meal. It was a total turn-off.An ex-friend, or the one that stole her boyfriend? Definitely something, I have seen that kind of reaction many times from my sisters, to smell trouble when I see it.But when a guy walked in, both looked a little shocked but looked more angry than anything once he recovered.His presentation was okay, but that was about all I could say, nothing that grabbed my attention. Most of them were mediocre, until the last one, and we all sat up and took notice. He understood what we wanted to project perfectly, and it did not surprise me when Milena told him he had the job, without consulting

*MILENA*After the meeting, I headed to see Mr Green. I gowned up and went in taking a tray of coffee with snacks with me. We restricted who could visit until after the operation, and if the family wished to sit with him, they needed to gown up and no kissing. We cannot risk any infection so close to the operation.“Good morning Milena, all set for Monday?'“Good morning, and yes. I have the media starting to promote it on Sunday, and wanted to warn you of this.”“Well, that will be interesting. I will have to watch the TV and see if I have a good face on.”He chuckled.“I did not think you would want a picture of you. I mean how you are now.”“I think they should come here and take a picture of me, so they can see how I am before the operation and what I am going through, don't you think?”“I will speak to Mr Philips, he is our voice to the people, and see if he would like to do that.”Mr Green was serious. I did not want to get him all worked up, and in the end, I agreed to mention i
ปรับปรุงล่าสุด : 2025-02-20Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 39 Sad for Lena
*ARTURO*I watched the man enter the restaurant, and he did not seem too pleased to see me. Well, too bad buddy, if Milena needed my support from you, she was going to get it. I had already been told by Milena that she might get emotional, and she needed me to help her stay strong, and possibly help her out of the restaurant if she cried.What I learned whilst sitting there was more than I had expected. This low life before me could do such a thing to this beautiful selfless woman. In the time I got to know Lena and that was not that long, she had already shown she was not a gold digger and went out of her way to help others in little ways.For example, she brought a takeaway dinner at a restaurant we stopped at, and she gave it to a homeless man who was sitting, leaning against a shop wall. He was playing an old guitar for tips, his face lit up like a Christmas tree, when he opened the lid and saw what she had brought him.But this low life had been the one to dim her eyes, and break

*MILENA*It did not shock me that Rissa would be waiting outside of Dino's, where Dante was meeting me.Rissa would never be too far away from him, it was like a magnet, she seemed to be attracted to where he was nearly all the time. I am not sure if it was all on Rissa’s side, and she had Dante hoodwinked, or if they were in it together.He seemed to be shocked at the video, and Rissa was her usual selfish woman. Arturo saved me from any further confrontation, which I know would have got a lot nastier if Rissa could get away with it. I was surprised there was not a photographer hiding somewhere, or maybe there was, and I could not see them, but they had little to photograph.The evening was okay. My mind was distracted for most of it, as Arturo tried to take my mind away from the meeting with those two, and some of my sad past was revealed, yet he did not run, he stayed and was strong, and very supportive, though no matter how hard he tried, he could not completely remove that sadnes

*ARTURO*The day was exhausting, and by the time I had taken a shower and climbed into bed, it was midnight, my head hit the pillow and sleep came quickly, all thoughts of what Milena was going through left my mind. Either I was drained, or the ability to turn things off took over. I knew in my early days as a doctor, I would have things go over and over in my mind, making sleep impossible to claim, and I would toss and turn. I have since learned to block those sorts of thoughts out of my mind, and that might be what happened now.It was nearly ten o'clock when I woke, the sun blazing through the window. Last night I failed to close them, which was unusual for me, and I was shocked to see how late it was in the day. Throwing the blankets off of me, I raced around getting dressed. I was supposed to be at my parent's home by eleven and to grab some drinks. This was going to be a close run if I was to make it across town in half an hour at that time of day and I had to think of the best

Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 116 Kept to his word
*ARTURO*“Can we do both Rissa and Mum's funeral simultaneously? I do not want to go through it twice. Plus, I have an operation booked for a few days; we need to avoid clashing with that.”Lena showed almost no remorse or hurt; it was as if she was now immune to it all, and that worried me.Rio looked at me with the same surprised look, but we needed to figure out how to proceed.“I will call the hospital and see when I can collect her body and notify the funeral service of the added change.”“Want to come home for coffee?”Lena asked Rio.“No, I need to head home, shower, and change. I have a busy day tomorrow.”Rio hugged Lena and shook my hand; I got to pay the bill this time.Lena was too far gone in her thoughts to even think of the bill; score one for me.**********The following two days were a blur. Dad said that Lena might have selective amnesia, not wanting to have that pa
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 115 Let Dante know
*ARTURO*Being woken up with that news shook me a little; I had to be there for my girl instantly while my head was still foggy. I can honestly say I was awake when I heard those words over the phone and pulled Lena to me. She was shaking, and though her voice was clear, her heart was beating faster, and she was fighting tears. Once she hung up the phone, she cried for a little while. I asked why the tears, and she said because, in her heart, she had lost a mother and sister; even if they were terrible and caused much pain and sorrow, deep down, they were still her family.We headed to the kitchen for breakfast. All ideas of relaxing at home were gone. She will want to go to work and keep her mind busy. We had intended to have a late start; I had no surgery, and her work in the lab was still cooking.I did my rounds at the hospital and released more patients before heading to Lena’s lab. She was checking on the monkey and Mr Green's stats. I loved that she
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 114 Ready to go
*JACKO*Being called out to the Sun Valley Sanitarium with my team was not a pretty sight. We could not arrest the woman who did the stabbing as she was already there for life, being classed as a danger to society and never to be released. The two women were never meant to have been put in that wing with that dangerous woman. I am kicking myself for not checking on the woman when I got the news of the first beatings, but I had so much on my plate. I got the call on my way there to check on them that they had been stabbed. I was nervous calling Rio and relieved when his phone went to the message bank. I hung up on Lena, and she promised to tell Rio. I feel bad for interrupting his joy of his first grandson and the honor of being named after him. I will have to catch up later and have a congratulatory drink.Lena seemed to take it well, but then she most likely had a lot to handle lately, and this would be just another blimp on her already rocky road of life.Our team is
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 113 Still in surgery
“Is that why your Dad is not here? He was at the hospital holding mini Rio?”Felicia giggled,Paula and Alma arrived in time for all the news to be repeated.The den was different without Dad there. It had been a while since I celebrated the game with others, which had not included my Dad being there. I genuinely hope he gets to spend more time with Diego and his little growing family; the three of us used to be closer and somewhere along the line. Mona chased him away. I am sad that I had not noticed her doing it. I was too busy at the time, getting my doctor's degree, and missed out on seeing my brother at a critical time in his life. I hope he knew I supported him with his life choices.“Lena, the lass, is out of hospital and back home. She has her family with her to support her, and the courts have put the man in jail. She can get a divorce from him. Now he is in jail. It has made it easier. I believe she will sell the house and move in with her sis
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 112 Named after Dad
*RIO*“Come see our son.”Judy beckoned them in.Diego was the first to go to bed, while the rest were held back and watched. He kissed Judy on the lips and then kissed the newborn's butt, and we all chuckled.Lena then offered to let him cut the cord; she turned the baby over so we could see the little boy. Diego took the scissors and cut the cord, and we all cheered as Diego gathered the little one in his arms and kissed his head. I took a small blanket over to him to wrap the baby in and waited for him to.When the baby was wrapped,Diego wanted to give Judy his attention, so he handed the baby off to me. I was shocked he did not give the child to Nate, but then Nate was a mess and may not have been up to holding the little one.“Here, Granddad, take Rio for a while, will you?”I looked at him with shock, but his face was full of love and pride; there was no sign that he was joking about the name, and he broke into a broad smile as I took the little bundle in my arms and almost wept a
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 111 The hearing
*JACKO*The court hearing was underway. It was a Saturday, not a typical day for a court hearing, but it was the only time we could get it heard. The judge slotted the day in for us, as we promised it would only take the day. The courtrooms were booked out for months, and we no longer wish this case to be drawn out. The courtroom was closed, and no public, including the media, was allowed in. We tried to keep out who was going to others; it looked low-key. If someone wanted to push, they could dig further and find out, but it's been so good so far. When I arrived, I had yet to investigate.I sat in the audience watching as our prosecutor tore strips off the first few men from the Gutter Boys gang to pieces, and the four of them went to jail. The first three guys tried were the ones that hit Lena’s car and were also the ones that fired the tranquilizer darts at Scott's team. They had a good lawyer, but our case was airtight, and they were sentenced with parole, but they still had five
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 110 New mom
*MILENA*Arturo made watching the fireworks a whole new enjoyment. The thrusts into me were almost timed to the explosions going on outside, though I am unsure if he even noticed what was going beyond the window. The largest red flower bloomed in the sky as I skyrocketed over the threshold, and if Arturo had not held on for dear life, I would have collapsed because of the intensity of the climax.After a cleanup, we headed over to Louisa’s. I insisted we knock and wait, which I noticed Arturo only does at work. I had told him it was a courtesy to knock first, but he just shrugged and walked in anyway.Before he learns to knock, he should walk in on something he does not want to see. Louisa did not seem too surprised. He walked in without knocking, and I wondered if it was a family thing, and if so, I had no chance of changing his ways since I never locked my door in the beginning. I must have thought it was an open invitation. If I wanted him to knock, I would have closed the door. Be
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 109 Be late
*ARTURO*After arguing with Milena about her bodyguards for what felt like the one-hundredth time, she caved and agreed she would not leave the Condo without them. I would not have peace of mind at work if I had to worry about whether Lena was still at home and was okay. Scott promised better security this time round and had secretly put a bug on Lena, I think, on her phone, but I am not sure, and he won't tell me, but he said if she leaves the Condo without the security, he would know she was on the move and get the men to her. I wouldn't say I liked it, but it was the best we could come up with.Tonight, we were having dinner with my sister. She contacted me an hour ago to ensure we were still coming. She did not want to start cooking, and we did not turn up. Luckily, I had finished in the theater and could answer the phone. It is hit-and-miss to catch me when at work.For a change, instead of walking home, I took our car service. I saw the bodyguards parked across the road as we ap
Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 108 Hate it
*MILENA*Today, I decided to stay home, sorting out my things and generally cleaning up the Condo. We were going to go next door for dinner, and I thought about making a sweet to take with me.Arturo said it was unnecessary, but it is what I like to do, and he was wise enough not to argue with me. The place did not need much cleaning. We both seem to clean up after ourselves, leaving just the floors and washing to be done. The sliding door to the balcony was wide open, allowing a fresh breeze to blow through the place. It was nice to be able to open the place up and let nature clear the air inside, not that it was bad or anything; it was a nice refreshing feeling it gave me when I felt the wind in my face. We can often get a strong breeze up here, and having the door open was not good. Today is a good day.I had the television on, listening to the sports commentary about this weekend's games, and there was nothing of great interest yet. The television was more background noise. I had
