Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 18 A Taste Of Her Own Medicine.
Alexandra stood with her arms wrapped around her body, enjoying the evening’s breeze and no longer bothered by her past encounter with Lucien.It was a wonder how she could shove the thought of him out of her mind in little under ten minutes when in the past he was all she thought about.Another sigh escaped her pink lips and in that moment, she caught someone approaching from the perplex vision of her eyes.Octavia.As much as she tried to, the blonde couldn’t stop her lips from curving up in a wicked way. She had expected the brunette and was waiting like bait waiting for its prey.As Octavia got closer, she quickly wiped off the smile from her lips, placing on her icy mask as she turned to face the brunette.“Ariadne…”The blonde cringed at the sound of her past name. She always hated hearing it from Octavia’s mouth as the brunette never seemed to pronounce it right, spoiling the beauty of the name.Before the witch herself could utter another word, Alexandra cut in, voice stern an

“You truly lack manners befitting of high society.” Alexandra scolded and shook her head, sucking on her teeth the next second. “But what was I expecting from someone of your caliber.”Octavia sat in the pond like a wet cat, shaking from head to toe as she listened to Alexandra, heart burning with rage and murderous intent.Out of everything that had happened this night, this certain event had not been included in her plan.Yet again, she had been bested by a woman who was barely trying.The difference between them both was clearer than ever in the night sky.Concurrently, inside the after party venue, the commotion from outside had gotten the attention of most people. With champagne glass in between their fingers, people filled out of the building and towards the garden not too far off.On seeing Octavia seated in the pond, looking all helpless and pitiful whilst Alexandra stood tall and proud with lesser casualties, murmurs broke out amongst the crowd.“Oh my, what is Ms. Barrette d
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 20 Unwanted Interference.
“Huh? What’s going on?”“What’s wrong now?”Whispers of such filled the room, but yet, the main characters stayed silent.Lucien watched the blonde in front with observant eyes as her temperament seemed to boil hot as she stared at who he assumed an unfortunate relative of hers. But from the look of things, the female seemed more pissed about her phone being damaged than the fact that someone had just obstructed the truth from being revealed.This piqued Lucien’s curiosity more than it already had been.He wondered what she was going to do about this situation, and how she was going to solve it.Finally, when Alexandra spoke, her voice was mixed with new found venom.“Vivian, what exactly do you think you’re doing?”The questioned female slightly cowered under Alexandra’s gaze, but when she looked towards Octavia, who subtly nodded her head as a green light, she spoke out, loud and clear. “Sister Alex, please stop this madness of yours, I’m begging you. I know you’re one to always see
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 21 Unanswered Question And Doubt.
“Argh!” Octavia cried out in pain as she gripped her struck nose. The bone felt totally out of place and this caused her to wail all the more.Vivian, who didn’t want her fate to be the same, tried to desperately scram, but tripped over her own legs and landed on her butt. One could almost say she had two left feet.This earned Alexandra’s attention of only a split second before it was reclaimed by Lucien’s voice, however, he did not sound as angry as Octavia had expected.“Alexandra, this is crossing the line.”The said girl scoffed, already tired of correcting his use of informalities. “Crossing the line? When your fiancée tried slandering my name, that wasn’t crossing the line?”Lucien pressed his line into a thin line and kept silent. This time around, he didn’t know how to defend Octavia… was there even any reason to defend her? She had been caught in red handed.“Lucien…” Octavia cried out, still trying to keep her act of innocence. “Please don’t believe her. I’m innocent. She’s
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 22 No More Secrets.
Meanwhile, inside the hospital VIP wing, Octavia laid comfortably on the queen sized bed, scrolling through her phone and searching for the post she had made, only to find out it had been deleted.After a while, she sucked on her teeth in discontent and was about to fling her phone away when the hospital door slid open in a harsh manner and in walked Lucien.The noirette jumped off from the bed, a wide smile across her lips as she failed to notice the look on Lucien’s face.“Have all the bills been settled? Let me just pack my things and we can get-” Her speech was cut short when Lucien interrupted her, his words bringing her feet to a halt.“I think it’s best if you stay in the hospital for a few days and recover.”“What? There’s obviously no need for that, I’m fine. Let me just get this thing and-”“Octavia I said it’s best for you to stay here. Don’t make me repeat myself a second time.”Octavia turned around in her step and found that Lucien’s once warm expression towards her was
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 23 Cutting All Ties.
Alexandra slept soundly that night and woke up feeling the best she had in years. When she stood in front of the bathroom mirror to do her morning routine, the blonde beauty could swear she had aged backwards, visibly.This caused her smile to broaden.Her life was finally backed on the right track.And now, all she needed to do was find the perfect happiness.However, her perfect morning was ruined the moment she stepped foot outside her manor and was ambushed by a deranged Octavia.It all happened too quickly for the blonde to process. The first thing she knew before the pain settled in was an extremely pissed Octavia charging at her, and before she could react, the left of her cheek stung painfully as the sound of fist colliding with skin rang out in the open compound space.Everyone stood, stunned at the events outcome.Alexandra remained unmoving, actually surprised by the sudden attack.“You man stealing whore!” Octavia blared, about to launch yet another attack when Alexandra c
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 24 He Asked Her Out To Lunch.
When Alexandra arrived at the conference room, Lucien was already sited in one of the chairs, legs crossed and fingers entwined. His whole being eluded a completely different aura than regular men while his assistant stood firmly behind him.Alexandra had to admit, no matter how long it had been since their marriage and separation, Lucien still remained as charming as she found him all those years ago.His lush auburn lock, ocean blue eyes and well defined jaw line, those were several of the factors that swooned the young girl that had fallen head over heels for him all those years ago.Gently shutting her eyes, she shook away every thought about her ex husband as she sank into the seat opposite facing him.“Mr. Albrecht, I didn’t expect you to come in person.”“I only saw it fit that I be the one to finish what I had started.” Lucien’s voice was on a medium tone. It wasn’t too high or low, and the tint of gentleness mixed in it made Alexandra doubt her ears.Laughing this off, she sa
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 25 The Thrill.
Lucien knew it was shameless of him to ask such from a woman whom he had neglected for five whole year, yet his lips kept on moving in spite of his brain objecting.When he saw Alexandra’s unmoving facial expression, he quickly added. “As an apology. It is clear that my… Octavia caused your face great injury. Let me at least apologize in an appropriate way.”“No.” Alexandra didn’t waste a second to ponder her answer. Her stone cold voice made it clear that she wanted nothing to do with Lucien. Putting on a professional smile, she informed. “My afternoon is a booked out. Goodbye Mr. Albrecht.”As she turned around to leave, once again, Lucien called out. “Then you must be free for dinner.”Alexandra sucked on the inside of her cheek then exhaled.What exactly was her ex husband trying to achieve? Had he magically decided to pursue her after they had divorced? She did remember that trash spilling hound saying something about Lucien leaving her.So was he really…The thought of it alone

Mazikeen blinked. The girl in front of her with lush blonde hair imitated the same action. She blinked again and so did the reflection.Finally having had enough of the stare off with her reflection, the teen turned away from the mirror and sighed.Her eyes found the luxurious clock hung above the TV and she chewed on her inner check as each passing moment reminded her of her impending torment.It was the last Saturday of the month, and as per the long existing tradition, her family had to go over to the Langer Family Vila for a wholesome picnic time.Sure, any normal person would enjoy such outing, except her situation was different. The reason why she dreaded their usual family picnic was because of a certain noirette boy that always seemed to make her life a living hell each time she encountered him.Vincent Langer, the original ruler of hell. Or so she put him, but for some reason, only she did.Even her own mother thought he was a saint.Bloody hell, the whole Seattle saw him as
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 288 THEIR HAPPY EVER AFTER!
~Five years Later.~Alexandra stood in front of her parent's grave- both Cory, Nova and Miguel- dressed in a fashionable black dress that draped down as far as her knee.Her hair- which had now grown back to it's full length- was packed up neatly and rolled into a bun at the end, accompanied by the black net cap she had on her hair.Alexandra stood with a bouquet of white roses in her right hand and daisies from the nearby meadow on the left. Those were not only symbols of peace, love, and hope but also reminders that life was still going on. She looked around slowly as if giving herself a moment to reflect upon how things have changed since then.Five years ago, when she had lost everyone she loved and was shattered to the core after her divorce with Lucien, Alexandra thought her life would never be same again. She had felt helpless and hopeless that time even with all the power and must accomplish goals, but now as she looked at both her adoptive mother and Biological mother grave w

Alexandra rushed off to the location on her screen as soon as she could, even though she wasn't too kin on it. On her way there, she couldn't stop herself from asking all the what ifs, re-running even those possibilities that did not exist in her head as she drove.What if something happened to Darius?What if some enemy of hers got to him?What it Eleanor had sent someone after him?By the time she turned up in front of the given location, her mind was feeling with all sort of possiblities that she didn't even know that the house she had pulled up in front of was one of Darius's.It was only after she had rushed up to the front door and found it open that she took the time to examine her surrounding and this only made her worry all the more.Whoever she was going up against now had been smart enough to bypass Darius and his security and even broke into his house.Alexandra had felt her mind begining to reel once more when she calmed herself and reminded herself that she dealt with El

~Day One Out Of Seven.~Alexandra returned to the Grey Manor that night after her conversation with Eleanor over the phone had ended.The first thing, or rather, the first person she saw as she stepped into the house was Darius. He was pacing around the living room for a while until he noticed Alexandra and quickly rushed to meet her."Alexa... Where were you?" He asked, his voice dripping with concern and worry.Alexandra softly sighed out. "Calm down, Darius." She said while gently stroking his hair. "I'm fine. I just had to take care of something little.""What?""I found out how Eleanor knew about my pregnancy. The waiter back at the cafe was a spy for her and he must have reported our conversation to her that day." Alexandra informed."What?" Darius was angry, but then seconds later, his face crumbled and a tinge of guilt set in.I'd the waiter had only reported their conversation that day and Eleanor found out about their unborn child, then it was his fault. He couldn't stop his

Eleanor pressed the button and imagine in that moment how it all played out.The best part of it all being that Alexandra was finally out of the way and she had emerged victorious after the long battle.No other thought could have made her smile the way she did.Eleanor's train of thoughts were interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She frowned, not taking too lightly to the fact that one of her useless henchmen or sons were distrubing her moment of celebration.She reached for her phone and picked it up, ready to lash out brutally in whoever's name was written on her phone screen, but to her utter dismay, it was an unsaved number.Eleanor stared at the digits of numbers across her screen with creased brows.'Who is it this time?' She thought after a while as she answered the call and placed her phone to her ear."Who is this?" She asked sternly.The other end of the line was silent for a while. Eleanor could make out the sound of someone mumbling in the background and then th
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 283 Final Showdown.
Six out of seven of those days bad gone by. Eleanor had been unusually quiet. One would have almost thought that she bailed and ran away.But Alexandra knew better than that. She knew that the woman who had raised her in disguise as the perfect grandmother was more of a deadly predator than her sins gave her credit for.In other words, she isn't one to tuck her tail between her legs and run away. It was just a matter of time until she acted.'A matter of time...' Alexandra pondered those last few words as she watched as the last fragments of oranges, reds and yellows faded into a dark gray. The sunset had gone, and the blanket of night began to cover the world in the darkness of its shadow.After a while, she pulled her gaze away and sighed, focusing on the pile of work that was on her table.Because of Darius's over protectiveness, she had worked less in the last few days and barely ever came to the company. Today, she had escaped by miracle- miracle meaning that she had made more th

For the first time in a long while, Alexandra felt panic shot through her as she read the letter in her hands. She allowed the paper drop to the floor after awhile as her thoughts became more loud than the sound of her heart beat.How was it possible? How could Eleanor have found out that she was pregnant?Alexandra thought, after all she had done everything in her power to make sure that Eleanor did not find out. To make sure that the news of her being pregnant did not reach the ears of any of her foe. Yet, here she was, hyperventilating over the fact that Eleanor had learnt of her child's existence while breathing like some dying cow.'Calm down, Alexandra.' she tried to calm herself as soon as she noticed how ragged her breathing was becoming.She found her way back to her bed and sag down, controlling her breathing and thoughts together. After a while, she picked up her phone and dailed Darius's number. The line rang for a few seconds as usual before Darius picked up."Alexei? Wha

Alexandra arrived at Albrecht Manor an hour later. She was welcomed nice and warmly, remembering her of the days when she once used to be their mistress and was looked down on, snickered at and even laughed at.Memories of the olden days flooding in made the blonde clench her teeth together. She bo longer wanted to think of those days. Her Chapter with the Albrecht family was over and sincerely speaking, she was happy with her life with Darius.Sure, she did get sad at times while thinking of all the grief she has had to endure and all the pain Eleanor has out her through, but Isabella's wonderful food and care, Alistair's headstrong way of supporting her, Darius's unlimited love and affection that grew by each day and her unborn baby made up for all that sadness.So now, she wanted to finally close things with the Albrecht family and return to her content life as soon as possible.Drawing in her breath, Alexandra prepared herself, carrying her shoulders well, before she stepped into
