Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * FREE - 1500 reads milestone * Chapter 59: When do you plan to have a child?
The surprise was so strong that Serena called out Alexander’s name before she could stop herself. Aunt Torres, realizing her oversight, quickly nodded. “Mr. Vanderbilt is in the master bedroom now. Would Miss Morales like to see him?”Serena stiffened at the suggestion. She quickly handed the cup of milk back to Aunt Torres, shaking her head. “Aunt Torres, let me know after he leaves tomorrow morning. I’ll skip breakfast.”Aunt Torres wasn’t blind to what was happening. She noted Serena’s reluctance and deduced that she was avoiding Alexander. Though she was tempted to ask why, she refrained and nodded instead. “Alright, Miss Morales. Rest well.”As Serena closed the door behind her, her heart raced, not with excitement but with unease. Alexander being here felt too close, too invasive. What if he discovered the truth about her? The tension weighed on her as she sipped her milk, trying to calm herself. She decided she would visit the old mansion tomorrow to see Mr. Vanderbilt Senior an

This morning, Ava had sent the finalized construction drawings to the renovation team she had worked with on multiple projects. However, no response had come. She decided to visit their office in person to understand the delay.The office building of Thompson Renovations stood twenty kilometers away from Le Châteauesque Manor, a modern structure with glass-paneled windows that reflected the bright afternoon sun. Ava arrived just as the city began to buzz with the midday rush. The marble-floored lobby exuded an air of professionalism, but as soon as Ava stepped through the doors, she was met by a young receptionist seated behind a sleek, white desk."Hello," the receptionist said, her tone polite but guarded. "Do you have an appointment?"Ava’s brow furrowed slightly. This wasn’t her first time visiting Thompson Renovations. In fact, she had collaborated with them extensively over the years. Typically, her visits required no formalities. "I’m here to see Mr. Thompson," Ava replied, her

Maison Marseille, an opulent dining establishment perched high above the city, exuded an air of exclusivity from the moment Ava stepped out of the car. The building’s glass facade reflected the dazzling skyline, and the glow from the chandelier-lit interior spilled onto the cobblestone driveway.Her eyes immediately caught Alexei Volkov standing near the entrance. He held a large bouquet of deep red roses in one hand, his other tucked casually into the pocket of his pristine white suit. He looked every bit the part of a man accustomed to luxury—effortlessly charming and utterly self-assured.As she came to a halt, Alexei’s sharp blue eyes lit up, and he strode toward her with a practiced ease. The roses, vivid against the evening backdrop, were extended toward her."Miss Alvarez," he said smoothly, his voice carrying just the right blend of warmth and mischief. "These are for you."Ava tilted her head slightly, a polite smile curving her lips as she met his gaze. Instead of reaching f

Alexei stiffened, his expression shifting multiple times as he tried to mask his unease. Finally, gritting his teeth, he scoffed, "Do you think I'd believe that? Marriage certificates like this can be replicated for ten dollars a bundle on any street corner."His tone was laced with skepticism, and his mind raced back to Alexander's cold, detached demeanor toward Ava. How could a man treat his wife like a stranger? It didn’t align with the image of a genuine marriage.Unfazed, Ava leaned back slightly in her chair, her calm composure unwavering. "Believe what you want, Mr. Volkov," she said, her voice smooth and deliberate. "Alexander and I have an understanding. We’ve agreed to remain strangers in public until the day our divorce is finalized. But you've gone too far this time, leveraging Volkov Co. Inc.'s influence and connections to target me. If this continues, I’ll have no choice but to involve Mr. Vanderbilt Senior."She casually reached for her phone, her fingers hovering over

Compared to Alexei's romantic and ostentatious private room, Alexander's had a completely different ambiance. The atmosphere here was sober and businesslike, reflecting his meticulous taste. Reserved for Vanderbilt family use year-round, the room was decorated in a sleek, minimalist style—clean lines, muted tones, and understated luxury that spoke volumes of Alexander’s personality. The Vanderbilt name was synonymous with power, and their empire extended far and wide, with many of New York’s iconic buildings falling under their ownership.Alexander sat at the table, his expression unreadable as he glanced out the window. The faint glow of the fireworks reflected in his sharp, dark eyes. His frown deepened as he wondered why women found such displays appealing. He found them... frivolous.Hugo broke the silence, leaning casually on the back of his chair as he patted Colton on the shoulder. "Colton, you wouldn’t believe it, but Ava is smitten with Alexander. Remember the casino? She thr

Ava’s brow furrowed as doubt clouded her mind. How had Valentina known she would be at Maison Marseille tonight? And hadn’t Valentina been unwell? Why had she been discharged from the hospital so quickly?Outside the towering building, Valentina leaned against a sleek Lamborghini worth five million dollars—one that her father, Alfonso, had bought for her. The sports car gleamed under the city lights, a statement of wealth and indulgence. Alfonso had repeatedly told Valentina not to drive alone and had even offered to assign her a driver. But Valentina often ignored his advice, opting to discreetly track a man she was infatuated with, as though her persistence would one day earn his attention.Despite her lavish surroundings, Valentina anxiously tapped her manicured nails on the steering wheel, her eyes darting to the glass facade of Maison Marseille. Growing impatient, she redialed Ava.Inside the elevator, Ava rubbed her forehead in frustration as she answered the call. "The elevator

Ava maintained her polite composure, her lips forming a faint smile as she nodded. “Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”Inside the second elevator, Alexei seemed eager to lift her spirits. His voice carried a hint of accomplishment as he said, “My collaboration with Mr. Thompson has been canceled. He’ll highly likely come looking for you now.”But Ava’s expression remained neutral. Regardless of whether Mr. Thompson sought her out, she had already decided to sever ties with him. Years of collaboration meant nothing if trust was absent. His decision to not only avoid her but also deceive her in order to hitch a ride with Volkov Co. Inc. spoke volumes about his character.“Well,” she replied evenly, “I won’t work with Mr. Thompson anymore either. I’ll simply find another company.”The elevator dinged softly as it arrived on the ground floor. Ava, preoccupied with getting to the hospital, didn’t linger. She nodded politely at everyone in the elevator, her movements brisk and purposefu

When Serena arrived at the hospital, the emergency room doors remained firmly shut. The air was thick with tension, as doctors and nurses moved swiftly through the bustling hallway. The fluorescent lights overhead cast a stark glow over the scene, adding to the sterile atmosphere.Araminta was nowhere in sight, and Josh and Valentina were also absent. Serena sat in the corridor, her hands clasped tightly on her lap. The only sound accompanying her was the relentless ticking of the wall clock. Time seemed to stretch endlessly, and each second pressed heavily against her chest.The cold from the hospital floor seeped into her legs, leaving them stiff and numb. She didn’t know how long she had waited until a gentle pat on her shoulder snapped her back to reality."You’re a family member of the patient, right?" A nurse stood beside her, looking concerned.Serena blinked, realizing that daylight had already flooded through the hospital windows. Her stomach rumbled in protest, reminding her

Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 2nd * Chapter 161 : I’ll give you one hour
Alexander couldn't focus, his thoughts scattered and restless. As his phone rang with a call from a business partner, he seized the moment and stood up.“Grandpa, the business partner is calling. I need to go over the details of this morning’s meeting,” he said, already moving away.Grandpa let out a long, weary sigh. To him, it looked like Alexander was just eager to escape. “If you put that much effort into Serena,” he grumbled, “you two would have had a house full of kids by now. Go on, but no matter how busy work gets, don’t forget the wife waiting for you at home.”Alexander didn’t answer. He slipped into his car and glanced at the dashboard clock—8:00 PM. Ignoring the call still ringing on his screen, he turned the key and headed straight to the hotel.By the time he arrived, it was 8:30.His phone buzzed again. It was Jonathan, this time with more urgent news—Ryan had been arrested, and sensitive information about PW Group had been leaked. By morning, the media would be ablaze w
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 1st * Chapter 165 : I already regret far worse.
The Vanderbilt building was unusually still for a Friday evening. Outside, the city buzzed as it always did, but inside Alexander’s top-floor office, silence reigned.The only light came from the city skyline pouring in through floor-to-ceiling windows. Alexander stood by the glass, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a thick, official envelope.The divorce had been finalized. Her name — Serena Ava Morales Vanderbilt — would no longer be linked to his. And yet, the weight in his chest hadn’t budged. If anything, it had settled deeper.The quiet was broken by the buzz of his phone.Hugo.He answered with a low, “Yeah?”“Finally!” Hugo’s voice crackled through the speaker. “You’re free. About damn time, man.”Alexander didn’t respond.“So,” Hugo continued, voice laced with mischief, “how about some celebratory drinks? I’ve got a private room at 230 Fifth, and I might’ve invited a few… distractions.”“Hugo—”“Come on, don’t be boring. Half the city would give their left arm for a
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 1st * Chapter 164 : Good. Let it all burn.
Ava sat cross-legged on the floor of her apartment, Rex’s warm head resting against her knee. The golden retriever let out a soft, contented sigh, completely unaware of the life-changing moment that had just arrived.On the table before her lay a sealed envelope.Her name printed clearly beneath it:Serena Ava Morales Vanderbilt.She knew what it was. In fact, she’d been waiting for this moment for years — though not in longing or hope.She had never begged for Alexander’s attention. Never sought his approval.Not five years ago, when she signed that marriage certificate under the cold gazes of the powerful Vanderbilt family and Alfonso, her father’s watchful eyes.Not when he had left the country right after signing the marriage certificate without a word, abandoning a marriage neither of them had wanted.She had lived alone since then.Alone with the Morales debt, the fading reputation of he
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 1st * Chapter 163 : Let me go
Alexander didn’t remember much of the drive back. The city was a blur of lights and shadows, his thoughts tangled and restless. The tight knot in his chest refused to ease.The image of Ava — Serena — standing by that window lingered with painful clarity. The hollow look in her eyes. The way her voice had cracked when she spoke of dignity, safety, and the things he’d stripped from her.He’d always considered himself a man in control, measured and strategic in every move, every decision. But tonight, for the first time, he felt powerless.And ashamed.He’d broken something he had no right to touch. Now, all he could do was try — maybe hopelessly — to repair what pieces remained.By the time he arrived at the Vanderbilt estate, the staff were long asleep, and the house was quiet. But he didn’t stop there. He headed straight to his private study, locking the door behind him.He pulled out his phone and made a call.Jonathan picked up on the second ring, sounding slightly groggy. “Sir?”A
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 1st * Chapter 162 : Why did you come, Mr. Vanderbilt?
The city lights blurred past as Alexander sped through the streets, his grip tight on the steering wheel. The cool night air seeped through the slightly opened window, but it did nothing to calm the restless storm inside him.For the first time in years, his usually sharp, calculated mind was clouded — not by business, not by rivals, but by a woman.His wife.And how badly he’d wronged her.Ava. Serena.Every time he said either name in his head now, it twisted something deep in his chest.He thought back to her messages — not a single word of accusation, not one plea for sympathy.Even after everything, she hadn’t used his name.She called him Mr. Vanderbilt.Professional. Distant. Like a stranger.And wasn’t that what he’d made himself?As he pulled into the underground parking of the hotel, he sat in the car for a long moment. His reflection in the windshield stared back at him — polished, cold, successful. A man respected, feared, envied. But none of that meant anything now.He gr
Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife * 1st * Chapter 161 : Now? What’s the rush?
Alexander let out a sigh, leaning back in the chair as his grandfather rifled through a worn leather photo album placed neatly beside the chessboard. The old man flipped through its pages, mumbling to himself. The room felt heavier somehow, the air thick with nostalgia and something Alexander couldn’t quite name.Alexander leaned back against the worn leather chair in the grand sitting room of the Vanderbilt Mansion, pretending to sip his tea while his grandfather, Cornelius Vanderbilt Sr., dug through an old photo album. The scent of aged paper and tea leaves hung in the air, mixing with the warm, familiar atmosphere of a home built on old money and endless pride.He didn’t want to be here.His mind had been elsewhere all evening — on Ava.The hotel. The time. Her waiting.She’d agreed to meet him there, not because she wanted to — but because she had no choice.Because of Ryan Kuzmin.Alexander had promised her that if she surrendered to his terms — ten nights, no conditions — he wou

Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife Chapter 160 : You need to consider your husband’s interest
When Ava pulled up in front of the boutique, she sat frozen in her car for a long minute, her fingers clutching the steering wheel, her heart pounding. The neon lights reflected off the windshield in lurid pinks and reds, making everything feel surreal.With a deep breath, she opened the door, keeping her head down as she briskly walked toward the entrance.Inside, a burst of artificial floral perfume and soft pop music hit her. The boutique was dimly lit, with shimmering silk and lace displayed under glowing spotlights. Ava didn’t dare meet anyone’s eyes.The sales clerk approached — a middle-aged woman with shrewd eyes and a practiced smile that brightened the moment she saw Ava.“Beautiful lady, what kind are you looking for?” the woman asked warmly.Ava’s mouth opened, but the words wouldn’t come. She had no experience here — none of this belonged in her world. “A-anything is fine…” she stammered, avoiding the clerk’s gaze.The woman’s expression turned stern. “How can you be so c

By evening, after back-to-back meetings and an unrelenting day of negotiations, Alexander finally stepped out of the conference room. The moment he entered his office, his sharp gaze landed on Ava, quietly seated by the window.She looked pale, her skin almost translucent under the soft light, but her eyes held steady — calm, guarded, as though nothing from the night before had ever happened. Not a flicker of hesitation, not a single ripple.Alexander moved to his chair, sitting down with the unhurried grace of a man who always controlled the room. His eyes swept over her.She had a scarf wrapped snugly around her neck, a strange choice for this mild evening. It couldn’t hide everything though — a hint of bruising peeked from beneath the fabric. A turtleneck would’ve made more sense, but in this weather, it would have drawn too much attention.“Mr. Vanderbilt,” Ava said evenly, breaking the heavy silence.“I won’t back out from the remaining nine times. But can you give me Ryan’s info
