Michael trailed closely behind Serena, just a few feet away, while his bodyguards lingered near the exit.

Ahead, Alexander stood near a lounge door, dressed in a sleek black tracksuit. His left hand rested casually in his pocket, his tall frame and poised movements radiating elegance and composure.

As he reached for the doorknob, Serena felt Michael’s leering gaze on her back. He smirked and murmured loud enough for her alone to hear, “He’s here. Aren’t you going to say hello?”

Serena inhaled deeply, gathering her composure. Without hesitating, she moved toward Alexander.

Alexander had just cracked the door open when he heard quick footsteps behind him. Before he could react, Serena’s soft frame brushed against him as she slipped into the lounge, shutting the door behind them.

Alexander’s expression darkened. “Get out,” he said curtly.

Serena quickly locked the door and turned to face him, leaning against it. Her gaze was earnest. “Mr. Vanderbilt, I don’t mean to intrude. Would you min

    Serena paid no attention to Chiara’s smug little performance. She quietly finished her meal, her movements composed and deliberate, as though the entire dinner existed only between her and her plate.Across from her, Alexander didn’t spare a single glance for anyone else at the table. Propped casually on one elbow, he watched Serena with an easy grin curving his lips — amused, fascinated, entirely captivated. It was as if the simple act of her eating entertained him more than any lavish banquet could.When Serena reached for another piece of king crab, Alexander’s long fingers brushed over hers, gently pressing her hand down.“Don’t overdo it with the king crab,” he said softly. “You’ll get a stomachache.”Serena blinked at him, caught between irritation and reluctant amusement, before obediently setting the crab leg aside.Without a word, Alexander took a wet wipe from the table, unfolding it with care. He took her hand — slender, pale, and delicate under the warm light — and began t

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 423 : As you just mentioned—out of care

    The night was thick with silence until the blinding glare of headlights sliced through the darkness, scattering shadows across the gravel path.Chiara’s eyes lit up instantly. Without hesitation, she sprinted toward the low-profile black Bentley Mulsanne that had just pulled up, its engine purring like a restrained beast.“Renzo!” she cried, throwing herself into his arms the moment he stepped out. Her perfume—light and sugary—mixed with the scent of the cool night air. “Why are you so late?”Renzo, tall and impeccably dressed in a charcoal coat, rested a hand on her head with a faint sigh. His tone carried that familiar blend of authority and affection. “I called you several times, Chiara, but you didn’t pick up. You know this trip takes two full days, and your health isn’t suited for it.”His rebuke was gentle but firm. It turned out Chiara had ignored his calls on purpose, throwing one of her little tantrums—she knew Renzo would worry and eventually come after her. And indeed, he h

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 422 :

    When Alexander entered the grand hall, the low murmur of voices died down almost immediately. Over twenty people were already seated around the long mahogany table, the air carrying the scent of wood polish and freshly brewed coffee. The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation—an undercurrent of excitement laced with tension.Alexander strode to the head of the table, his posture sharp, his expression coolly composed. In his hands was a large, meticulously folded map. He spread it out across the table, its creases catching the light of the chandelier overhead.“Here,” he said, his deep voice carrying through the room. “This section marks our main route. These two points”—he tapped the paper with a gloved finger—“hold our reserve supplies and medical kits. They’re hidden outposts. If anyone gets hurt, those are your safe zones.”Everyone leaned in, studying the topography. The crackle of paper and the scrape of chairs were the only sounds that followed his words.In the front row sat Chiar

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 421 : You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do this.

    Serena was about to turn away when she saw Blizzard’s massive frame barrel straight into Chiara.The collision made a sharp thud—Chiara, already frail and pale from her health, staggered back several steps, clutching at her chest for balance.Serena froze, caught between irritation and disbelief. Seriously? Blizzard had been Chiara’s pet for weeks—how could he still be this unruly?Then she remembered who Blizzard truly was: a proud, temperamental dog who recognized only one master—Alexander Vanderbilt. Everyone else, in his cold canine eyes, was merely an inconvenience. Besides, Blizzard probably still remembered Alexander’s anger from the night before.Chiara’s expression hardened. Her delicate fingers curled into a tight fist by her side. It took all her self-control not to snap at Serena then and there. Patience, she reminded herself. They would be living under the same roof for the next few days—there would be plenty of time to get even.As Serena led Blizzard past the group, she

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 420 : You’d follow anyone, huh?

    Serena never expected Alexander to be so dead set on bringing Snowball back.Snowball, for all its fluff and innocent looks, had a temperament eerily similar to its owner—bossy, proud, and utterly unimpressed by strangers. Yet, the moment Alexander appeared, the dog became obedient, almost reverent.After retrieving the runaway pet, the two of them returned to Le Châteauesque Manor, where the late afternoon light slanted through the tall windows, dust motes floating like gold in the air.Still simmering with irritation, Alexander gave Snowball a firm smack on its rear. “You’d follow anyone, huh? Why do I even bother feeding you?”Serena was lounging nearby on the velvet sofa, a fruit platter arranged by Aunt Torres sitting beside her. She popped a grape into her mouth, watching Alexander scold the dog, and for a moment, couldn’t help but picture him doing the exact same thing to their future child—stern voice, furrowed brow, but secretly soft underneath it all. The thought made her ch

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 2nd * Chapter 419 : Ms. Morales, aren’t you going to stop him?

    An hour later, Alexander and Serena arrived at Le Châteauesque Manor. The night air was cool and still, the manor bathed in a soft amber glow spilling from the lanterns that lined the cobblestone drive.The moment Serena stepped out of the car, Rex came bounding toward her from the courtyard, barking joyfully, its golden fur glinting under the light. It leapt around her in circles, tail wagging so fiercely that fallen leaves scattered into the air.Serena couldn’t help but smile. She crouched down, running her fingers through the dog’s thick, warm coat. “Hey there, boy… you missed me?” she murmured softly.Alexander stood nearby, hands tucked into the pockets of his long black coat, scanning the grounds with a faint frown. Something was missing. The place felt… quieter than usual.“Where’s Snowball?” he asked suddenly, his deep voice breaking the calm.Serena looked up, momentarily puzzled. “Snowball? Didn’t you give it away?”“I gave it to you,” Alexander replied flatly, his eyes nar
