*ARTURO*

My day was good, had sat in two surgeries which were minor angioplasties, I know it is still not that minor if we have to do more than a stent of two, but on the whole, today flowed well and the doctors doing the surgery were getting really good at this side of surgery, just need a bit more experience to gain confidence, but overall, a good day.

Deciding on takeaway for dinner, I quickly headed to our favorite place and grabbed a whole lot of Chinese food, a little of everything, hoping to build her eating back up, she is still not eating a lot compared to her appetite before the accident, but I understand why, it just saddens me a little seeing her so weak, after having such a vibrant happy person before this happened, twelve days she has been awake, and still no sign of her remembering me, I would have thought she would have had some memories come back, but alas, I am hopeful, when I get back today she might have had a small breakthrough.

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 86 Welcome back

    *MILENA*Arturo was already up and dressed when I woke this morning, I was disappointed that I still needed so much sleep, but Hank kept saying the body needs sleep and rest to heal.I get that, but it is easier to tell patients to rest and heal than to be the one doing the healing.As of today, Felicia won't be in to help me bathe. Arturo had been doing it the last two days, as Felicia could not come in. I seem to have gotten over the shyness of him seeing my body, maybe because the bruising, bandage, and cast were gone, or maybe I am comfortable around Arturo and like how gentle and caring he is, his eyes take all of me in. He makes me feel special and wanted as he tends to my needs, I am no longer embarrassed that I need his help to do things and have accepted that if I need to do things, sometimes I need help, I won't be this way forever and Arturo wants to be the one to assist me, he was very persuasive, and he wore me down. Not that I minded too much, but I felt I needed to try

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 87 Pushing her

    *ARTURO*Rio had brought over some of his sports pendants and other stuff to hand around the room and so did my Dad, I had almost finished putting them up. hoping to surprise Lena, when I noticed she was already awake and watching me, I greeted her and had to watch her struggle to get off the bed and use the walker to go to the bathroom, it broke me every time she needed to use it, not because I wanted to help her, though that was part of it, but because she was so strong and vibrant and confident in herself, and now she is struggling to get to the bathroom and back, without falling over or tiring herself out.I was humming to myself as I prepared breakfast, it is amazing how fast you learn how to do stuff around the kitchen when you want to give your girlfriend the best you can do, I have had Mum give me tips when she was here, helping me learn to cook better food.Rio arrived with pies and we put them in the oven to stay warm, I now know how to do that too, and not burn them, I was

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 88 Her nightmare

    *MILENA*Dad and Rio left, and I felt better as I was tucked in by Arturo, I felt him lean down and kiss me, before whispering to have a good night. I was feeling his love for all the attention I was getting, though a little guilty that I was not helping with the cleanup, poor Arturo seemed to be the one doing all the work while I slept and ate all day, not contributing to the cooking or cleaning.The next morning,Arturo was up and in his swimming trunks. He looked yummy as I watched his muscles flex as he pulled a shirt over his chest, to my disappointment, covering up what I had been enjoying looking at, his toned body, keeping fit by swimming and the gym.“Morning sweetheart, how was your night?”he asked as he helped me out of bed and stepped into a swimsuit, he had a two-piece, swimsuit, making it easier to put on than the one piece I would normally wear. Oh, I just remembered I wear a one-piece when I swim, and another fragment slips into place.“Good, I had no dreams and I have

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 89 Soothing her

    *ARTURO*My morning started out really well. I loved pampering Lena and making her get all hot and bothered. She might think I had not noticed her squirming from my touch, but I did, which made it hard for her to feel so good. She was hoping I would touch her and relieve the build-up, but I am not sure if she is well enough for that, so I am not game enough to try, and it is not something I am going to ask my Dad about.I gave both, toast and cereal for breakfast. Nothing fancy. I had taken so long with the spa and massage that I had almost run out of time. I had to go to work today and was not looking forward to leaving Lena alone. I had tried to get Mum to come and sit with her, but she was busy, and so was Dad. I did not feel comfortable calling Rio to come over to babysit. But I know he would in a heartbeat, but he is busy trying to put those who put her here.He was in jail and had a hard job trying to do that. The judge let them all go on bail, even those who should have been ke

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 90 For a long time

    *MILENA*The horror. Was it a dream or a memory?Hank took my vitals as Arturo rocked me back and forth, saying soothing words to calm me down. I was so upset, this dream or memory had terrified me. Could my Mum do such a thing?Why would Rissa?It breaks my heart to think either would, but the dream was so real.Hank gave me a sweet tea, not something I like, but he said I needed the sugar after the trauma I had just been through. I sipped it, and it had some brandy in it, too, and the alcohol burned my raw throat as it went down; I felt the warmth go all the way to my stomach.“Lena, did you have a memory or a nightmare?' Hank asked me, concern laced his voice.“I do not know, it felt so real, but I do not understand why?”I whimpered back because it was true. I had no idea.Dad arrived, and behind him was Felicia. Both of them rushed over to give me a side hug, as Arturo was not going to release me. As the others approached us,Arturo pulled me closer to him.Felicia looked me over,

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 91 Seeing and hearing

    *RIO*Walking into Lena’s room, seeing and hearing her in so much distress, was not easy for me. How Arturo was comforting did little to ease my own need to comfort her, but knowing she has a good man to support her now was a huge bonus, though as a Dad, I want to be doing that. Dante was never any good for her, the wrong sort of man that she needed, but I can not say a thing about that. If you start telling your children you don't like someone, or they are not good enough for you, then you are asking for trouble with that child. They have to go down that road themselves, and you have to hope you are around to pick up the pieces if the child lets you.Arturo was not going to let go of her from his lap long enough for me to pull her into my arms for a warm hug that I so wanted to do, so I had to settle for a smaller one, and a kiss was all he would allow, before he pulled her back to him, making her almost part of him or so it seemed, he was in too much of a shock himself, she must hav

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 92 Need anything

    *MILENA*Hank ended up giving me a jab to put me to sleep.I have no idea how long I slept, but I must have needed it and was glad I did not have a nightmare or any new memories while sleeping. I would rather be awake when I remember stuff because I am not sure how much was real and how much was made up to cause it a bad nightmare.Though I am sure I have pushed for my records, Hank so far has not let me see the reports on my injuries, and no one will tell me yet what condition I was in when I arrived there. I tried to find out by logging into the hospital notes, but I am not on the hospital computer system as a patient. Dad said something about the hospital being my safe house, and no sign of me being there had been seen yet. I am curious to know how long he is going to keep me in the dark about all of this. Hank said, till I remember enough, was the nightmare not enough?Arturo has been by my side constantly, watching me like a hawk. Even Gustavo came in to look in on me and stayed

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 93 Too scared

    *ARTURO*Mum and Dad assured me it was best to stay in the kitchen away from the questioning for a couple of reasons; one was because I would want to go and serve justice myself, and I agreed I might do something stupid like that. Two, because of how upset I might get, they were concerned that it might stop her from answering if I got emotional while they were questioning her.Too afraid to upset me further.Both reasons sounded good, but I was still having trouble standing there trying to talk to Mum and Dad, trying to make it not seem like I would prefer to be in the other room and to try and pretend as if that was not happening in the other room.“Son, how about we see if Rio is okay with us smuggling her out of here and to our den for sports day? Maybe a day away from here would be good for her.”Mom suggested. I think this was just as hard on her as it was for me.Working with battered women, she has seen some bad things, and though this is different in some ways, it is the same to

  • 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

  • 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
