Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 31 She Took His Bait.
As usual, Lucien was copped up in his study focused on work. He had just finished looking through and signing the document needed to carry out the launch of his company’s new Jewelry series, when his computer beeped several times.Glancing in the device’s direction, he sighed and answered the incoming call.“Lucien.” Harrison’s face displayed on the other side. The male was smiling broadly, but as soon as he saw his best friend working, that smile disappeared. “Dude, it’s a Saturday.”Lucien, who understood his words simply stated without looking up from his work. “Doesn’t matter, time waits for no one.”Harrison sighed. His friend had always been that way, putting work before anything else. Even his love life. He wondered how Octavia puts up with such a workaholic.“Speaking of which, how’s Octavia? Is she taking her meds?”Lucien’s hand paused at the mention of the noirette. It had been a while since he thought about her and her calls over the days had reduced almost as if she was g
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 32 Making The Wrong Decision.
Alexandra glared daggers through her vehicle’s window at the restaurant in front of her.Fancy red coating, flowers beds placed neatly at every corner and a pair of see through glass doors. The exterior almost made the blonde forget all about the foreboding feeling in the pity of her stomach.She was making a bad decision. Somehow, she knew it, but just couldn’t pinpoint how she knew this.Sighing for the fifth time, she pulled her gaze away and reached for her coat hung neatly on the headrest of one of her seats.Whatever thoughts she had, sitting in her car wasn’t going to answer those questions.At last, she threw the coat on over her sport bra- not having enough time to change into actual dresses, and stepped out of the vehicle.Carrying her shoulder with pride, she approached the restaurant.From a mile away she was able to spot Lucien thanks to his outstanding body physique and looks.Leaned against the door of his car, Lucien wore a grey colored button up shirt that had the sle

She made the wrong decision.As soon as Lucien and Alexandra had finished their business Lunch, the skies opened up their impatient gates and just like the nights before, they allowed a heavy down pour onto the earth.The sky was grey and surroundings windy when Alexandra stepped out. Raindrops pattered against the hard concrete below with no sign of letting up anytime soon.Not that she cared, Michael would drive through the rain the moment she called him.Adjusting her coat, she turned around to Lucien who was on a business call behind her.It was so like him, always busy twenty four seven.She examined his facial structure while he busied himself with whatever business was none of her concern. As he spoke in a foreign language she quickly identified as Russian, he nodded accordingly, his auburn smooth locks following his every movement and later settling just around his eyes, momentarily obstructing his view.Alexandra had the sudden urge to reach up and adjust his hair, but at las

Lucien never seemed to like his presence. For some reason, the male in front of him always caused his facial expression to darken.He was a plague to Lucien’s always peaceful live.Theodore Langer.As Alexandra saw her friend approaching, her smile grew and she stepped forward, forgetting her and Lucien’s little conversation.This, as usual, didn’t seat right with him.“Theodore, what are you doing here?”“Had some quick work to finish up on.” The blonde male was still dressed in his gym clothes, a leather jacket thrown on top to give his attire some swag.All in all his dressing was appropriate.“And what are you doing here?” He asked, his eyes traveling from the blonde in front of him to the male standing a distance away. When his eyes met hers again, she could clearly read the question written in them.“Were you seriously with him?” His ruby red eyes questioned.“I also had some work to take care of.” She clarified to which Theodore nodded and turned his attention towards Lucien.“
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 35 His Sacrifice For Her.
“Did you get home safe?” Theodore asked, seated leg crossed in the back seat of his vehicle, Bluetooth ear piece plugged in and tablet held within his grasp.He finalized an order of his as he waited for the female on the other side to respond.The beeping sound of a microwave went off from the other line as the timer had expired.Alexandra slurped on her cup of coffee before responding. “Sure did, and I’m exhausted as hell. How about you?”“I’m headed out to see my old man. The meeting held in Rose garden needs a little bit of his insight.”Alexandra nodded. She had know Mr. Langer since her teenage years and the man was nothing more than honest and humble, a total contrast to his son’s personality.“Is that so?” She mused as she fished out her plate of left over pizza and plopped down on her couch, tuning to the day’s news as she munched on it. “You sure are a busy bee, it’s almost pitiable.”Theodore chuckled. “It’s not like you have it any different.”“True that.” She mused then s
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 36 Fatal Mistake.
Alexandra stared at the blank screen of her phone, a content smile adorning her crescent moon lip.If Lucien was her was her kryptonite, then Theodore was her lucky charm. The best she could come across in the whole vast universe.Without him, her life just wouldn’t be the same.Placing her slice of pizza in the trashcan, she once again settled down on her couch. After watching TV for a while, she turned it off and approached her study, about to scheme through some work when loud voices came from outside.Particularly that of Daniel and Vivian, her least favorite people in this world.“Alexandra open this gate right this instance! Tell these incompetent gatemen to let us in!” Daniel roared.She frowned.Those two had impeccable timing.Turning around in her step, she approached the door. The first thing she saw after she stepped outside was the sight of her uncle and Cousin being restrained by a pair of her new security.Her face creased up in annoyance. Out of all the days, these two
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 37 Making Amends.
~A few days later~A few days had gone by since Alexandra’s discovery.It wasn’t even Friday yet and the whole working week had left her feeling exhausted.After signing last document for her morning schedule, she sighed and gently massaged her aching shoulder. Her whole life had become overly busy over night.But she didn’t mind it, rather, she was thankful. The business kept her mind from thinking of a lot of things. Her failed marriage and recent discovery included.With another sigh, she turned her attention towards the window.The third party who had been involved in the extortion of company funds was… Eleanor Grey.The name felt like soured sweets mixed with baking soda, not a good combination, as it lingered in the mind.There wasn’t enough evidence to prove it, but she had once thought that her uncle’s way of operating was far too smart for their kind.The means they had used to hire hit men against her. The way they had strategically transferred large amount of money from eac
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 38 Devastation And Realization.
Consider his offer? Alexandra found those words almost laughable as they taunted her mind, playing over and over like some broken track record.But like hell she was going to put his offer of friendship into consideration. Did she look so much like someone who needed to be placed in a mental asylum for Lucien to suggest such a bizarre offer?She hoped her rejection earlier was enough to smack Lucien back into his right mind frame, because if that didn’t stop him now, without a doubt she was going to take drastic measures to distance that man from herself.His presence- much like the rest of everyone- irked her.** ** ** **Octavia’s week had been nothing short of a nightmare. She rarely slept and when she did, she’d have the awful-est of dreams.Today, like the previous days, her dreams had repeated, and she woke up soaked in beads of sweat. Just as she broke down and buried her face into the center of her palm- pouring out her misery and devastation over her recent break up- she had

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
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 286 Wasn't This Supposed To Be Their Happy Needing?
The next two days after that passed by quietly. Alexandra hd released the tap of her father's black box footage to the police after turning in the driver and after a few days of searching, they found Eleanor passed out on the floor of her house in her paralysed state.Eleanor was admitted into a hospital under sever watch to take care of her and later on admitted into the prison's medical center while her trial was underway.Although she had been saved from the dehydration and over thinking that caused her to pass out, her case of paralysis couldn't be solved and even thought it could be, Alexandra made sure that that option was rendered invalid.Apart from that, the other development that had brought a smile to Alexandra's lips was when Leonardo was suddenly caught at the air port while trying to flee with Eleanor's last fortune under a fake name.He was charged with a few crimes, one of them being his illegal use of a fake identity and the other being his illegal stash of cash.Botto

~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
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 284 Taking Down The Final Boss.
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

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
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 282 Let's Finally See What You're Made Off
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
Billionaire Ex-Wife Comes Back Chapter 281 A Present For My Unfortunate Grandchild.
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
