Chapter 6 Dead to me

Mr Gustavo continued.
“Well,he is in the theater at the moment so I cannot introduce you right now.Come,let me show you where your office is and introduce you the rest of the staff that are available.”
The hospital was eight-story building with private high-quality rooms as well as a cooler of wards for those who could not afford higher-priced room.
The canteen was more like a small restaurant,the food looked and smelt good.
The staff I met were all friendly and pleasant and when they realized who I was, they were suddenly more respectful of me.
I didn’t know I was this popular in the medical field.I felt happy about that.I was making a great name for myself.
My office was a lot more than I expected.It was big and even had a window which overlooked a very pleasant view but I doubt I’d be able to look out of it much.
But all in all,I was excited about working here.I had a good feeling about this place.
**********************
By the time I made it home,I was still in a good mood.
I made some steak and sat down to eat.
My phone beeped.
I frowned seeing that it was a text from Dante.
Dante:Babe,my flight got cancelled so I won’t be home tonight.There’s a storm and I don’t know when it’ll be over.But I’d let you know when I start heading back.
I scoffed.
I guess he didn’t know about the divorce yet or that he can’t use any of my accounts anymore.
And I knew the storm might be a lame excuse but I didn’t care.
He could go to hell and I wouldn’t bait an eye.
Being a doctor,you learn to put emotions aside so you can deal with a patient’s family,I guess this had helped me a lot during the lost of my marriage.
But I considered my marriage as losing a patient.
Dante was dead to me now.
*********************
*ARTURO*
I have never been lucky with women.
I had been with three women officially which ended tragically.
One said that she cheated on me because I was too busy with work and I didn’t make out time for her.
The other said I was a boring guy who didn’t know how to hold conversation.
And the last one which was my recent break up was only with me for my money.
She literally turned me into a money bag.The only time she calls or texted me was when she needed money.
After that,the other women I keep meeting were all over my net worth the moment they learn that I was a successful surgeon.
I just wanted to click with someone.I have always been curious to know how you could meet someone and you and that person would fit in all areas.
I had thought I might have given up on the love thing until I met Milena.
She was such an interesting woman.My first impression of her being a snob was completely washed away.She was a doctor too.It felt so natural to eat and chat with her that day.I find myself hoping and wishing she could invite me for a meal again.
I didn’t want her to find me pesky but I just wanted to interact with her more.
I didn’t have work today so I decided to go for a swim.
There was a pool on the rooftop.I wondered if Milena knew of the pool as she had just moved in.
I could tell her about it in any case she wanted to go for a swim.
But I knew she must know of it.
Who doesn’t know the full details of any property one buys?
I guess I was just looking for an opportunity to talk to her.
I rushed upstairs,two at a time and pushed the door opened to the rooftop.
My footsteps halted seeing that someone was in there.
It was her.
The woman who had been on my mind since I met her.
Her strokes were perfect, slicing the water with ease and her body looked to sexy and sleek.
I felt the need to sit down and watch her because my legs felt so weak.
She was fascinating.
She caught sight of me and waved.
I smiled and threw my towel onto one of the deck chairs.
I waited for her to do a turn at the shallow end,before I dived in and started to swim alongside her.
She had a good pace going and it didn’t take long to join her in stroke for stroke.
Looking at her with each turn of the head,I was not at my usual pace, but her stroke rate and pace were not bad for a woman.
Don’t get me wrong.
I’m not discriminating by men have more power in their strokes.
And I could easily end up ahead of her.I just didn’t adjust my stroke.
She seemed to be more comfortable around me now unlike the first day we met.

Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 7 Watching me
*ARTURO*Milena and I did more laps before she climbed out of the pool.I picked up my pace and did another ten laps before calling it quit.When I climbed out of the pool,I found her in the deck chair,watching me.I suddenly felt so self-aware as I wondered if she found me attractive.“Good morning.”She said.I smiled.”You had a good swim.”“Yeah,thank you for keeping pace with me but I could have easily beat you if we race you know.”I laughed.”You’re joking,right?”She shook her head.”I’m not.”“Woman,I was a star swimmer in high school,I won a lot of swimming medals and I would have won the Olympic medal if I hadn’t decided to do something else professionally.”She rolled her eyes.I chortled.”Did you just roll your eyes at me,miss?I wasn’t joking.I really was a star player.Fine,let’s go back into the pool and race.”Milena laughed.”You must be really competitive and no,I can’t swim anymore today,I’m tired.I will beat you to swimming another day.”I laughed.”We’ll see about that.”

*MILENA*Taking a deep calming breath,I asked.“How much are the cost of the bags?”“Sixty-eight thousand dollars.”So he spent sixty-eight thousand dollars on bags?!It pained me so much that he has been squandering so much of my money and I had no idea.Does he think I pluck money from trees?!I literally have to work so hard.Sometimss I work until my neck and back hurts so bad.I have worked so hard to have this much money and I do not even squander my own money because I know the value of it.Yet,he feels no remorse on spending them on his mistress.I felt like tearing off his face with my nails.“Well,tell him that I’m not settling any damn bill!He should be more than capable of spending whatever amount on his wife!He bought the bags from you not me so go meet him for your money!”With that,I hung up.I felt so angry.How dare the both of them?!******************ARTURO*With a smile on my face,I had my bath and got changed.I couldn’t stop thinking about Lena and how gorgeous sh

*MILENA*I really didn’t want to cry.I thought I did all the crying in my old home.I just wanted to start anew in my new home and new job.But I just had another wave of Dante and Rissa’s betrayal.I just couldn’t understand how they could do such a thing to me when I’ve been nothing but nice to them.I looked at the hand currently holding mine in the restaurant.It turns out I really needed a friend right now and I was glad I accepted his offer of friendship.Though he didn’t ask why I cried or anything,his presence had been really comforting.I slowly took my hand away from his because I felt his hold was getting too personal.“You must have heard my phone call conversation.”I let out.He grimaced and nodded.”I…em…I heard a bit.I had rang the doorbell but you didn’t answer,plus,your door wasn’t locked.You should lock your door all the time.”I sighed.”I must’ve forgotten.”He offered me a small smile.I bit my lower lip and probed.”Do you ask any questions?”He must be curious as t
Huling Na-update : 2025-02-17Billionaire Ex, Divorce It! Chapter 10 The host
*MILENA*As we headed for the building,Arturo held my hand.I didn’t stop him and I also didn’t mind his familiarity because it felt so nice to have my hand held by a man.I can’t even remember the last time Dante held my hand.I realized that the last time Dante had shown me true affection was when we newly got married.I felt like punching myself for not noticing all the signs that he had fallen out of love with me.Arturo’s warm hand distracted me from my thoughts.I stared at him wondering what he does for a living.Maybe he was an office worker.But being in a condo as expensive as that,he might be a CEO or CFO.I shook my head.It was none of my business.It wasn’t as if I wanted to have anything to do with him except that we were holding hands right now and I was suddenly thinking about how good it might be to be in his arms,how good he might be in bed.Maybe we could be neighbors with benefits.No strings attached.I really missed having a man hold me, touch me in all of the places

*MILENA*He stared at me obviously surprised by how rudely I had interrupted him.I wasn’t jealous when I saw the host hug him or anything.Or when he received a call and I heard the name ‘Paula’ from his lips.Either way how brightly he looked when he spoke to the person who was obviously a woman on the phone,I assumed he might have something with her.I knew it.Arturo was too handsome and too hot to be someone who would take anyone seriously.I might be wrong and I might be jumping into conclusion.But the last thing I wanted to happen to me again was to be foolish and let any man play me.Dante wasn’t even as handsome and Arturo,yet he still broke my heart.So Arturo would not be any different.It was good that I know now that he was a playboy.At the very least,I’d never have feeling for a playboy.“Is everything okay?”He asked me.I nodded.”Yeah.Let’s go eat.”We left the art exhibition and got back to the car.Then we headed off to have lunch.I glanced at him.He was on his phone

*MILENA*Oh God.I think I’m losing it.I’m heartbroken and I’m at the same time a horny mess.I took the seat Arturo had pulled out for me and lowered myself into it,thinking that I should probably give up on asking him to be my sex buddy.The woman stood by the table,until we were both seated and she handed Arturo the menu,not giving one to me.“You can get me your specialty and instead of wine,make that two coffees please.”He said.I frowned.Don’t I get to order?“Alright.”She had a smile on her face and still hadn’t paid any mind to me.Is this where he brought all his women?It seemed it wasn’t so special that I was here.It felt like the woman was used to it.“What’s the specialty?”I asked him,curiously.“When I dine in,I get the chef’s mix of the day,it’s a little sample of all the meals she’s experimenting with and I get to tell her if I think it’s great or not.It’s always great though.Her food tastes heavenly.”“Do you always bring all your dates here?”“This is a date?”He ask

*MILENA*Arturo still looked unsure about taking me right now but I was in too much pain to think this through.I closed the distance between us, stood on my toe and pressed my lips against his.He responded,immediately and kissed me back,deeply.He pulled back and cupped my cheeks.“Are you sure about this,Lena?Are you sure you want this?”I nodded.I gasped when he carried me into his arms.Desire...desire like never before washed over me.He walked into his bedroom and kicked the door close then he lowered me down until I was standing.He pulled my body against his and kissed me.I wanted his hands,his tongue,his lips and body all over me.He kissed me, fervently,this time as we kissed,his hands roamed my body like he was trying to study every curve.He ran his hands up my sides just before he broke the kiss and brought my blouse up,bottons and all.I held my hands up and let him slip it over my head.He tossed it aside and moved forward to kiss me again.I could feel my nipples st

*ARTURO*I had just finished making the tea when I went to get Lena,just to find her crying so heartbrokenly at the balcony.Her tears made me feel so sad and I just wanted to take it away.So when she asked me to fuck.It didn’t take much debating within myself.I knew she had only said that to momentarily forget about the pain she was feeling.But I was attracted to her and also wanted her pain to go away so I moved her to my bedroom.I had never wanted to please a woman this much better.And each beautiful sounds she made urged me on to please her even more.And when we both came,I laid beside her reeling in how wonderful that sex had been.It was literally the best sex I’ve had in a very long time.I wasn’t the type of guy who slept around,I mostly only had sex with women that I was in a committed relationship with.But right now,I didn’t regret what I just did with Lena.Hell,I wanted to do it again.And I could only hope she doesn’t regret what we had just done.I held her in my

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

*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

*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
